Now here's something you won't be seeing on the MSM

It's actually a bit of good news on the illegal immigration wars....

Tom Tancredo won a battle in the House last Friday against Sanctuary Cities.

Yep, finally they'll be loosing some Federal money for thumbing their noses at Federal law (and the rest of America).

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. House of Representatives this morning voted to withhold federal emergency services funding for "sanctuary cities" that protect illegal immigrants.

Anti-illegal immigration champion Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., sponsored the measure, which he says would apply to cities such as Denver and Boulder. He was elated by its passage, which stunned critics and supporters alike.

The Littleton Republican's amendment to the Department of Homeland Security appropriations bill appears to have no language specifically defining a sanctuary city. Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper has long disputed giving the city that label.

"The issue has come to fruition," Tancredo said by cell phone after the vote. "The people of the country really have spoken. It's a really good indicator of just how much closer to the people the House is than the Senate is."

The House passed the amendment, 234 to 189, with 50 Democrats voting in favor.

He's rapidly moving up in my book.
I'm not sure about the #1 office, but a Thompson/Tancredo team looks good to me....
