3. George Will, at least he can be considered one of the anchors pillars of the real Conservative wing of the old Republican Party, has no idea why Romney is cuddling up to the Birther-Trump in public. "Bloviating Ignoramus" is about as gentlle

4. School is out for the summer. The job market is bad. Students from previous graduations still have no jobs. The next few months are going to get warmer, and the political climate in an election season will be particularly charge. Law enforcement is aware of the potential issues.

8. Paul Krugman calls NJ Gov. Chris Christie a BIG phony. He explains why:
9. Steve Lopez brings us up on the issues of immigration reform, agricultural labor needs, and the politics of both and why the GeeOpee plain refuses to do anything in an election year:
