-- DIERSEN HEADLINE: Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights Executive Director Joshua Hoyt urges that the Republican Party should join with Karl Rove, join with George W. Bush, join with John McCain, and join with the Democrat Party and give Mexican activists everything they want. Of course, that would mean that the Republican Party would have to expel conservatives from the party, that is, expel from the party the people who support the party's platform.

-- DIERSEN HEADLINE: Countries, companies, organizations, and individuals spent $1 billion to elect Obama. Who do they want Obama to punish? It seems that most of Obama's promoters blame all the world's past, present, and future problems on America, on Americans, on Republicans, on Whites, on males, on older people, on conservatives, on Christians, on pro-lifers, on heterosexuals, on those who pay lots of income tax, on those who pay lots of property tax, on non-union members, on anyone who ever had anything to do with the American automotive industry, on those who believe in capitalism, on contributing members of society, on etc. I seems that everyone who promotes Obama blames all problems on everyone who does not promote Obama.

-- DIERSEN HEADLINE: Many, including your GOPUSA Illinois Editor, believe that to want GM, Ford, or Chrysler to file bankruptcy is a) to want them to go out of business and b) to want foreigners to take over total control of vehicle production in America. Sadly, the Chicago Tribune wants GM, Ford, and Chrysler to file bankruptcy.

http://blogs.dailyherald.com/node/1050
-- FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH COLOR PHOTO IN DUPAGE EDITION: Former DuPage County board member Yolanda Campuzano lobbies for new DuPage County "Ethnic Outreach Coordinator" position - Jake Griffin (DIERSEN: Campuzano, who "speaks fluent Spanish," would "reach out to ethnic minorities, specifically the Hispanic and Latino folks in DuPage County." Diersen suggests that the county create a new "Liberal Outreach Coordinator" position and hire someone who "speaks fluent conservatism" who would reach out to the liberals who are moving into the county to take advantage of the prosperity and safety that conservatives created. Just kidding.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
-- DIERSEN HEADLINE: Obama stepgrandmother says British tortured Obama's grandfather. Of course, Obama's promoters will call for Obama to punish everyone of British ancestry. Diersen's ancestry is 100% German. Diersen's father's mother told Diersen her first love was a man with 100% British ancestry, but his parents killed their marriage plans because they did not want him to marry a woman with German ancestry.

-- DIERSEN HEADLINE: Falsani asks the Dalai Lama "What makes GOD smile?" Diersen is sure she wants him to say using government to take more and more money if not all money away from the productive members of society and give that money to those who are not productive members of society, another words, anything that promotes dependency on government, socialism, or communism makes GOD smile.

SUBURBAN LIFE
-- DIERSEN HEADLINE: Pro-abortion pro-homosexual Suburban Life praises pro-abortion pro-homosexual Radogno and throws pro-life Dillard under the bus
http://www.mysuburbanlife.com/wheaton/opinions/x1720677497/Senate-GOP-district-benefit-from-Radogno-s-skills
(FROM THE EDITORIAL: Some of Radogno’s positions have not endeared her to conservative Republicans, and her election as Senate minority leader drew some criticism. For example, she is pro-choice and supports rights for homosexuals. While that could prove problematic for some people, Radogno’s Senate colleagues obviously were impressed with her background as a genuine leader. This bodes well for her as the voice of an increasingly diverse caucus.)
