Just when you think the Obama juggernaut has reached new lows on corruption and fraud out pop new allegations that are in the realm of science fiction. It would appear that 68% of web traffic donors on Obama.com may come from foreign sources a clear violation of Federal law.

Last week, the Justice Department made an astonishing statement about its unprecedented lawsuit to stop the Arizona illegal-immigration law. Attorney General Eric Holder's spokeswoman, Tracy Schmaler, claimed that it was appropriate to go after Arizona, but inappropriate to stop "sanctuary cities." Schmaler said: "There is a big difference between a state or locality saying they are not going to use their resources to enforce a federal law, as so-called sanctuary cities have done, and a state passing its own immigration policy that actively interferes with federal law. . . That's what Arizona has done in this case." There's a big...

The Democrats are out to weaken voter ID laws, despite the lessons we should have learned during the election of 2000. John Fund in the Wall Street Journal on what is happening in Wisconsin: An attempt to hijack the state's election laws and open the door for voter fraud failed at the last minute this week in Wisconsin's legislature.
