That's very funny!! If this is a regional commercial here is the link. It's worth watching -the infomercial is on it.

The thing is a blanket with sleeves. Watch for the family that wears snuggies at the game.

My family loves this commercial. When it comes on we all start yelling what color we want; blue, red, sage green...

heretics!

Here is another story. The link has a picture of her children. She says it is torture being cooped up. Well then...go home to those beautiful kids.


Chicago Immigration Activist Marks Year in Church

La Raza, News Report, By Fabiola Pomareda, Translated by Elena Shore, Posted: Feb 01, 2009 Review it on NewsTrust

Editor’s Note: Flor Crisóstomo says she’s not going out like Elvira Arellano. The 29-year-old undocumented Mexican has been hiding out for the last year in the same Chicago church where Arellano sought sanctuary. But unlike her predecessor, she says she has no plans of leaving. Arellano was deported to Mexico in 2007 after announcing the end of her sanctuary on her one-year anniversary at the church.

CHICAGO – The fact that she has defied a deportation order for a year wasn’t what led undocumented Mexican undocumented immigrant Flor Crisóstomo, 29, to live in hiding. Her activism through the Internet, press conferences and her contact with people in the U.S. sanctuary movement is constant.

After 12 months of being confined to three rooms on the second floor of a church in Chicago’s Humboldt Park neighborhood, Crisóstomo continues to live in uncertainty. But she says she will remain under sanctuary at the San Adalberto United Methodist Church until the government fixes immigration laws ... or until she is deported.
FlorFlor Crisóstomo looks at a photograph of her kids who live in Mexico.
On Jan. 28, surrounded by posters of Barack Obama, candles, flowers and pictures of the Virgen de Guadalupe, the Oaxacan immigrant said, "Here I am and here I’ll stay until the government fixes these broken laws."

According to information from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the Mexican entered the United States illegally in August 2000. Six years later, she was arrested in a raid in which various other workers at the IFCO Systems factory were detained.

In October 2006 an immigration court gave her until Jan. 10, 2007 to leave the country. On Nov. 29 of that year, the Board of Appeals denied her appeal and gave her until Jan. 28, 2008 to leave the country voluntarily.

A case like thousands of others

Her case is like that of many immigrants, including the president’s own aunt, Zeituni Onyango, the 56-year-old half-sister of Barack Obama’s late father.

The Kenyan immigrant lived a life of public service in Boston and traveled to Cleveland last year when it became public that she had lived in the country illegally since 2004. A judge recently suspended her deportation order until April of this year, when Onyango is scheduled to have her hearing.

When she heard this news, Crisóstomo said, “Amen, I’m happy for her and hopefully they’ll be able to reopen her case. We need a moratorium on deportations so we can reopen our cases too, because we haven’t killed anyone or robbed anyone,â€

Another illegal that has no shame, to put it mildly. While she believes she is valiant in her fight, she, by spending a year in the sanctuary of this church, is living fat and happy at someone else's expense, perhaps even her countrymen waiting for jobs on the street corners because they are also here illegally. Just wonder if she is able to send remittances home.
For any church that offers sanctuary to someone not respecting the laws of this country, they should have their tax-exemption removed. And the church leaders condoning this should be examined for aiding and abetting which is also against the law.

She devotes her time to staying in close contact with activist groups in the United States and across Latin America, even participating in workers rights' conferences via videotaped addresses.

This is 2009, Flor. Haven't your heard, Mexico now provides access to the internet, has VCR's, and long distance telephone service providers too. All the tools you need to continue your fight can be found with your children (in Mexico) at your side.

29 years old with children 14, 13 and 11 and no mention of a father? She left them when they were 5, 4 and 2. More Mexican family values?

After 9 months she's 15 and now she has a 14 years old, do the math.
