| Free Mitt Romney by Paul Krugman NYTimes |  Sometimes I find myself feeling sorry for Mitt Romney. No, seriously. In another time and place, he might have been respected as an effective technocrat - a smart guy valued (although probably not loved) for his ability to get things done. In fact, that's kind of how it worked when he was governor of Massachusetts, a decade ago.

Texas ACLU Texas prisons are no place for children. |  Last July, a federal judge ordered the Obama administration to release refugee children who were being held in conditions that no child should have to suffer. In an attempt to keep the kids locked up in family detention centers in Karnes and Dilley, the administration has asked the State of Texas to license these two private prisons as "child care facilities."
Tell your local paper that Governor Abbott is wrong for keeping children behind bars... http://is.gd/IXt8sH
