Why do they blame Kavanaugh for a law that was passed more than 20 years ago by legislators?

Journalists should be required to take a college level civics course.

The last time I visited Japan, one of the questions on the immigration form asked "Have you ever been convicted of a crime?" and adds the clarification "(Not just in Japan?)"

Lie and they will find your sorry @$$ and kick you out of the country on the next available flight.

A Canadian acquaintence says their detention facilities are actually pretty nice. His flight home was cancelled on the same day his tourist visa expired. No alternative flights were available until the next day. They told him he had two choices:

(1)He could go get a hotel, come back the next day and probably be allowed to leave without paying the normal fine or put on the list to forbidden re-entry.
(2)He could volunteer for overnight detention, come back the next day and guaranteed to be allowed to leave without paying the normal fine or put on the list to forbidden re-entry.

Of course, he chose option (2) and noted the overnight accomodations were not bad at all and neither were the meals provided. The point being that the Japanese take their immigration laws very, very seriously but are also not without compassion.

It may have been a spoof, but I saw a quote from that crazy Sanders like leftist young woman who won her primary by saying off the wall ignorant stuff because she is so stupid.

The quote I saw was something like this:

“Why are the teaching about civics and not other cars?”

And a drug test, and an IQ test, and a Common Sense test.

They would all fail miserably.
