Senators/trial lawyers Tom White and Steve Lathrop are doing more than losing valuable billing hours in the Legislature; they are providing wonderful fundraising fodder for the State GOP.Rock on, Mark.

SS-I can't believe how far off-base you are taking offense at the World-Herald's editorial - at least, the portion you quoted above. It's pretty clear the World-Herald is warning candidates not to exploit the immigration issue because they should expect to be held accountable.Even if Lathrop was being responsible from his position on the Judiciary Committee, an objective reading of this

We'll be updateing soon folks. Verrrrry busy in the real world...Someone above asked for the NEGOP's piece. Here is the text of the mailer. Don't know what it looked like:Steve Lathrop is wrong on illegal immigration.Steve Lathrop told us that he would be tough on illegal immigration. Steve Lathrop even made illegal immigration a priority of his campaign in 2006. But once elected Lathrop

To Gal Pal: apologist and sycophan....lol Actually I prefer one who supports those that do the right thing in dealing with a blatant hypocrit like Steve Lathrop. I think I remember he told people he was pro-death penalty too!!!

I don't care who the candidate/elected officials are. If they do something in office that directly contradicts what they said on the campaign trial, they need to be called out on it. I don't care who calls them out. If the political parties are in the best position to do this...so be it.If Lathrop were honest about how he was going to deal with immigration, he would have lost...badly. Period.

Sweeper,Thanks for sharing Mark Quandahl's excellent editorial along with Lathrop's "immigration" mailer from the 2006 campaign. Lathrop's actions are despicable and I appreciated you shining more light on the issue. Reading the responses from his apologists and sycophants has been entertaining.The Howells

This is the same Steve Lathrop the Chip Maxwell and other pro-lifers want to "nominate for the Nobel Peace Prize" after he brought the pro-life and pro-research communities together.Yeah, he is a bastard.

It is too bad the Governor and his administration don't care to enforce the current federal law. If they did, there would be no benefits for illegals. They also are opposing employer sanctions behind the scene. Who is really pro-illegal immigration?

"Lathrop deserves his medicine... bottom line" Sounds like a suppository.

This editorial was perfectly on the mark...no pun intended Sen. Quandahl.Get YOUR facts, Anony #3. Any openminded person who reads the transcript from the committee hearing for the bill can see Lathrop's questions were highly dubious about the legislation.The fact remains, Lathrop provided no leadership in either stopping the committee from killing the bill OR offering his own motion to advance

We may agree or disagree with what comes out of the two party headquarters. But that has nothing to do with the political arrogance and bias of the World Herald and the Unicameral. The parties are doing thier job while the paper and state senators play tyrant.The Unicameral has no second house check or partisan balance. The World Herald says that check and balance is the Nebraska People. The

He did NOT vote against it. As a former state Senator, Quahdal ought to know how to check a voting record on a public hearing. Seriously. Get the facts straight.

It all comes down to accountability, not partisianship. The GOP was right in what they did.

I fully support the State Party. The last time I checked, their mission was partisan in nature.
