The generous Watcher of Weasels Council has announced this weeks nominations in their Pe-Amnesty Edition. My article on Senator Sessions calling for the resignation of John Morton, the Director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement is named for Honorable Mention. You may remember in 2010 when 7,000 ICE agents cast a vote of ‘no confidence’ in John Morton. He’s Obama’s man, so he’s still there. Senator Sessions said there is no way America can have “comprehensive immigration reform” with Morton at the helm. Notice that I’m in very good company with other Honorable Mentions. Here are this week’s nominations along with some exciting Council News – you could be a Council member. Find out how below:
