Immigration, illegal immigration, and immigration reform are all hot buttons in the realm of present-day American politics.
Charges of racial profiling, prejudice, and discrimination are being shouted from the mountaintops.
The State of Arizona seems to be at the epicenter of the debate on the very polarizing issue of American public policy regarding legal and illegal immigration.
Yes, indeed, it is all very emotional. And yet, should such debate be based on emotions or is the debate better served by taking a more rational approach?
Perhaps, you just may find the answer to the preceding question by reading:

Commentary by Roland Hansen of Toledo, Ohio (Lucas County) on: politics; current events; community involvement; citizen participation; consumer advocacy; and governmental responsibility, responsiveness, and accountability.

Okay, so some people are wondering what the Hmmm ..... entry here on Roland Hansen Commentary is about.
Okay, for you then, I will tell you.
It is about a gutless slimeball troll who goes by the pseudonym of mud_rake.
I have saved some of the dialogues and postings of that worthless piece of fecal matter and am now placing copies of some them here for you to read for yourself so that you may hopefully understand why I do not allow comments by the scum mud-rake or any other trolls and flamers.
Here is some of the dialogue and comments made by the a-hat over on Glass City Jungle:
It is that type of sleazeball who is allowed to post on Glass City Jungle that brought about my disillusionment with that blog and why I have chosen not to participate on that blog.
Oh and by the way, the information contained in the Roland Hansen Commentary "Hmmm ....." is what I was able to discover about the originating location of the the comments being made by mud_rake here on my Roland Hansen Commentary blog.

The Scarlett Golf Outing…Strippers or Waitress

One thing that this event proved: Domenic Montalto continues to reign as the local Dem’s most dopey figure [and there are a lot of candidates for this spot].

Press Release: Lucas County Democratic Party on Golf Outing…
mud_rake Said: @8:09 pm
He’s the consummate politician. He knows that his position is safe because Chris Redfern is incompetent.
Roland Hansen Said: @8:30 pm
Chris Redfern — why in the world would his name be brought into this?
mud_rake Said: @7:44 am
To Ronald Hansen: Redfern is the incompetent head of the Ohio Democratic Party who has not been able to reign in the shenanigans of the LCDP.
Roland Hansen Said: @1:14 pm
Hey mude_rake,
My name is Roland, not Ronald. I have a brother by the name of Ronald, and I would not wish that he be attributed to remarks that I make.
Now, in regards to the topic at hand:
To the best of my knowledge, Chris Redfern as Chair of the Ohio Democratic Party organization has no legitimate authority over the 88 county Democratic party organizations just as the Governor of Ohio has no legitimate authority over the elected officials in each of Ohio’s 88 counties. These are all separate entities with each having its own electoral jurisdictions.
I ask that you cite the rules, regulations, policies, organizational constitution, bylaws, or whatever that give Chair of the Ohio Democratic Party authority over the elected leadership of the County Democratic Party.
While you are most assuredly entitled to your opinion, I believe you need to provide some objective facts to be credible in your allegation.
Roland Hansen Said: @9:46 am
Hey mude_rake, UH, I mean mud_rake, aka Man with the Muck-rake,
Have you got those facts for me, yet?
By the way, aren’t these your own words: “One blunder after the other has caused them to loose …. credibility.”
I am calling for you to establish your credibility with facts as opposed to allegation, innuendo, speculation, name-calling, sarcasm, and the like.
I’m trying to establish whether your commentary is legitimate or just flaming.
Roland Hansen Said: @9:39 pm
Mud must be on someone’s face. The silence is deafening. Facts are absent. Seems to make one blunder after another. Maybe, it is just plain easy for mud and misinformation to be thrown rather than to base opinion on fact.
Give us the facts, not conjecture, supposition, and malinformed perspective. Yellow journalism I can do without.

Allison Perz blames Carty for the delay in Charter School opening…
mud_rake Said: @3:17 pm
Perz and Carty: two scam artists
Roland Hansen Said: @4:59 pm
Can the name-calling mud_rake ever provide some contributing positive commentary rather than the constant barrage of derogatory insults?
Or, at a bare minimum, can mud_rake stop flaming and at least provide some thoughtful commentary of any kind? Even negative commentary can be constructive if done in a manner that uses cognitive processes.
mud_rake Said: @8:52 pm
Mr. Hansen: Sure, come over to my blog. By the way, neither of these two people deserve more than I said about them.
Perhaps you could give us a few postive comments about each of them.
For me, nuff said about these two clowns.
Roland Hansen Said: @9:06 pm
Wow, mud_face, I mean mud_rake, your credibility is now nonexistent. Fools call other persons clowns when they themselves need to belittle others in order to feel good about themselves. Small minds deserve small places.
Been to your blog, won’t be back. The National Enquirer is more credible than you. Regardless, I prefer not to read trash.
mud_rake Said: @8:13 am
Last evening I was trying to figure out Mr. Hansen’s sudden anger with my postings. Then it dawned on me: over in Toledo Talk many weeks ago, I challenged one of his postings.
Apparently Mr. Hansen keeps a record of folks like me who dare challenge his perspective.
But, LisaRenee does not deserve this babble on her blog. Come over to my posting today [Friday] and the two of us can hash it out.

McNamara V Irish…Szollosi…WSPD…”Strippergate” and Trash…
mud_rake Said: @8:13 pm
What a bunch of garbage, literally. This city takes 3 steps backwards for every one foreward. No wonder the voters don’t come out on election day.
Roland Hansen Said: @8:56 pm
Even more trash from mud_slinger, er I mean mud_rake.
The maker of mud pie should step up to the plate and become a candidate for elective office. Slinging mud is easy. Criticizing others is easy. Being the eternal pessimist is easy. Hiding behind a pseudonym is easy. Taking cheap pot shots from the shadows of anonymity is easy.
Talk is cheap. Stand up and be counted. Run for office. Show us what you got.
Roland Hansen Said: @9:57 pm
I love FACTUAL information!
mud_rake has left a new comment on your post "Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan: Facing anti-Sem...":Apparently mud_rake the troll cannot read the message up there by the header of Roland Hansen Commentary that was specially put there for him and others such as he. As you can see, it reads:
Sorry, Roland, to see that your blog has been infected by Barb and Jeanette. They bring a very stubborn and intolerant virus with them that is very difficult to eliminate.
Best wishes on effectively disposing of said pests.

Conklin and Company with Sandy Isenberg: Disservice to Community
I do not agree with the "Conklin and Company" television program hosted by Lee Conklin having Sandy Isenberg referring to her as a political analyst on the weekly program. IT'S JUST NOT RIGHT!
When it comes to the subject politics and political science, I am not without a clue. I do have some background in the field having taught political science classes at the University of Toledo and at Owens Community College. Additionally, I am an inductee of Pi Sigma Alpha, the National Honor Society for Political Science and also an inductee of Pi Alpha Alpha, the National Honor Society for Public Administration. Not to mention that I have experience as the Political Action Chairman of a major organization, been the campaign manager of quite a few candidates, worked on many campaigns for issues, and have run for elective office on seven occasions winning three times. I have a pretty good idea of what a real political analyst does in the real world; and, it is not what Sandy Isenberg does.
I am of the strongly held opinion that the producers of Conklin and Company are denigrating true political analysts every time they refer to Sandy Isenberg as one of that elite group of people. The producers at 13abc WTVG-TV Toledo, OH are doing a disservice to the community by leading the viewers into thinking that Sandy Isenberg is a "political analyst" - in my opinion, Sandy Isenberg is nothing more than a walking and talking loud mouth yenta, plain and simple.
Sandy Isenberg with her roof and ethics isn't credible in any way, shape, or form.

Sandy Isenberg, Political Hack and Big Time Loser
This Roland Hansen Commentary has been brewing for quite some time and is still being formulated.
None-the-less, I thought I would give a preview (or maybe I should use the word prequel) here and now.
My commentary is triggered by the continued appearance of Sandy Isenberg on a local Toledo area television station in its Sunday morning local production of a community and political talk show.
Some refer to her as SWMBO, as you may read in this article, some have called her "Queen" while others describe her as foul-mouthed, and still others like these ill-advised television people refer to her as a political analyst, which she is not.
In my opinion, Sandy Isenberg is nothing more than a political hack and a big time loser.
More about SWICAS, i.e. She Who I Consider A Slimeball, will be written in a future Roland Hansen Commentary.
Politics can be interesting. Ohio politics are definitely interesting. Politics in Lucas County, Ohio are peculiar, to say the least.

I Told You So: Lucas County Democratic Party and Unity
Awhile back, I wrote on several other blogs and e-bulletin boards my thoughts on the Lucas County Democratic Party under the then-new chairmanship of Ron Rothenbuhler. Those comments resulted with me (there's no polite way to say this; well, yes there is, but I don't care) taking an ass-beating on those sites.
So, I said to myself, the heck with those idiots, I'll write about it on my own blog, where hardly anyone ever comments - I think that is because I don't allow cowardly anonymous trolls as do some e-bulletin boards and as do so many other blogs just so their authors or administrators can have a "large" readership to inflate their ego by enhancing their low self-esteem and in order that they can brag and feel important about themselves.
At any rate, way back in 2007 on Roland Hansen Commentary, I made this statement:
"I predict that the Lucas County Democratic Party will come together on a united front in the not-too-distant future."
Click on over to read the entire Roland Hansen Commentary - OHIO: Lucas County Democratic Party and Unity.
While I was poopooed by quite a few people across the blogosphere, I stood by my prediction.
Well, here it is, almost three years later. I do believe enough time has elapsed to have validated my predication. I wonder how all the a-hats that belittled me back then like eating crow.
To those naysayers and pessimists and incompetent wanna-be political analysts, I say:
I TOLD YOU SO!
