Sarkozy Tipped to Lead Party in First Step Back to Presidency
[AnNahar] First the dramatic comeback, then the frenzied campaign, and now La Belle France's ex-president Nicolas Sarkozy
...23rd President of the French Republic. Sarkozy is married to singer-songwriter Carla Bruni, who has a really nice birthday suit...
is limbering up for his potential springboard back into office: the leadership of his right-wing UMP party.

Pollsters expect the 59-year-old to sail through a vote on Saturday to head his bitterly divided party despite his much-heralded return to politics largely seen as having fallen flat.

Granny Clinton's "Special University Rate" for Incoherent Speeches a Mere $300,000
When officials at the University of California at Los Angeles began negotiating a $300,000 speech appearance by Hillary Rodham Clinton, the school had one request: Could we get a reduced rate for public universities?

The answer from Clinton’s representatives: $300,000 is the "special university rate."

About how she bucked off the Senate.

#2  The answer from Clinton’s representatives: $300,000 is the “special university rate.”

"Yes sir"
"That is all you can for $12.

Obama Discusses Immigration Changes with Mexican President
[AnNahar] The leaders of the United States and Mexico spoke Wednesday to discuss President Barack Obama
If I had a son he'd look like Trayvon...
's executive actions to overhaul aspects of America's immigration system.

Obama and Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto said they wanted their countries to "work together in Central America to help address the underlying factors driving migration from the region to Mexico and the United States and deter migrant smuggling, including the smuggling of unaccompanied children," the White House said in a statement.

In their phone call, the two leaders also pledged to work to combat organized crime and promote improved security "in a spirit of shared responsibility."

Obama's controversial overhaul, praised by many immigration rights activists, provides three-year relief for millions of undocumented people who have lived in the country for more than five years and have children who are U.S. citizens or legal residents.

According to the president, it also channels more resources to the U.S. border with Mexico and shifts deportation priorities toward expelling felons.

#1  None to be found here beyond the rapidly declining base, Latin American lapdog phones Mexico for grooming and praise.

#2  Why not adopt Mexico's approach to illegal immigration while your at it -

Article 33

"The Federal Executive shall have the exclusive power to compel any foreigner whose remaining he may deem inexpedient to abandon the national territory immediately and without the necessity of previous legal action." "Foreigners may not in any way participate in the political affairs of the country."

#3  Sew another star on the flag. Mexico will become our 51st state in 2016. Officials of the four states bordering Mexico are secretly gathering statehood support for that country because they bear most of the cost of illegal immigration. President Obama is fully behind the initiative. He called Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto recently to start working on the details.

#7  As per #3, dare the Russians be already convinced of wily dastardly US intentions???

To wit,

* DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > [BBC = ICH.com] A RUSSIAN COMMANDER WARNS US COULD CONTROL THE WHOLE GULF OF MEXICO.

Thats ridiculous - how can Mexico + Brazil [Argentina?] be the lead OWG Co-Superpowers in their respective Central American/Caribbean, + South American, Global Fed Unions iff the US did that???
