THE DAILY BLADE: AZ Gov. Jan Brewer Vindicated
When Gov. Jan Brewer (R-AZ) claimed “the majority of the illegal trespassers that are coming into the state … are under the direction and control of organized drug cartels and they are bringing drugs in,” her critics denounced the assertion as overblown and - wait for it - racist.
Unwittingly illustrating Brewer’s point about the nexus between human and drug smuggling, the Arizona Daily Star reports that “High Obama aide to meet with Brewer.” And given this particular Obama administration official’s statements regarding national security matters (third item and lead item), The Stiletto wonders whether he is drug addled most of the time.
The Stiletto Scoops Rep. Joseph Cao (R-LA)
The Stiletto has owned several Toyota cars – her current vehicle is one of the models that has been recalled – and has always had full confidence in the quality of the company’s vehicles. Why? Because Japanese culture compels a man of honor to commit seppuku for a screw-up of this magnitude. Think about it: What better guarantee of quality and value can a consumer possibly have?

"[I}n the Asian culture, we do things differently. During the Samurai days, we'd just give you the knife and ask you to commit hara-kiri," said Cao, who is Vietnamese-American. "My constituents are still debating on what they want me to ask you to do."
