Give Us Your Tired, Weary, Illegals…
Aug 19, 2011 Political
The Obama regime is granting amnesty by fiat and allowing illegals the regime deems pose no threat to national security to stay in the US. It is bad enough that the government refuses to secure our borders and prevent people from walking in but now it is allowing those it catches to continue on as if they broke no laws.
I know the argument. These poor folks are children of people who came here illegally. They had no choice in the matter and they grew up here so why send them away? Because they are here illegally. Not to mention that those who are not adults are kept here and their parents then stay so we do not split up the families.
The Congress has been fiddling with legislation to address illegal immigration and it has been stalled in Congress for quite some time. Let’s face it, Democrats don’t want to lose their voting base.
So instead of allowing the process, as slow as it is, to work things out, the Obama regime has just decided to bypass Congress and do what it wants via fiat.
This should come as no surprise. Obama and his regime do not like the Constitution and these people do not like the constraints placed on them. They have an agenda to push and they will not let the law of the land get in the way.
This, of course, is a move to placate illegal immigrants and their support groups before the next election. Obama made a ton of promises to his illegal supporters and he has been unable to fulfill them so he is bypassing Congress in order to appease those who have no say in things. He is shoring up his base so he can get the Hispanic vote.
Period.
This moron is playing politics with our sovereignty and our national security in order to get votes.
How is it that this guy claims to love America and then pushes on to fundamentally transform her? If you love her why does she need fundamental transformation?
The only conclusion is that he hates America as it is and will not be happy until his Socialist dreams are realized.
Maybe they need to organize a flash mob on DC and get rid of all the dead wood…

Today’s word definitions and misnomers, in no particular order.
Our current state of affairs and use of language often cause me to ponder. Most recently, maybe we’re all pondering the criminal justice system. Maybe the lesson of the Orlando jury’s verdict is that we are too used to being lied to?
For example:
Raise the debt ceiling – What ceiling? It’s always being raised. It’s not like the glass ceiling that you couldn’t break. This one is flexible. Government makes its own rules. Let’s try that at home, folks. When we’re in debt, we’ll raise our credit line. That will work!
Rich is defined today as evil and highly taxable. I’ve even heard the rich called lucky and lazy—Wrong! Do you remember when rich was a worthwhile goal, the American dream, something positive that benefited everyone–not just the person getting rich?
Secretary of the Treasury – No, he can’t be! He wants to fix a spending problem by giving the spenders more money….to spend. He seems to have no clue that high tax rates destroy the economy or that big government (he) is the problem.
Undocumented worker – A euphemism for an illegal immigrant who is illegally hired by an unlawful employer.
Immigration – Currently this term is used by the media to represent everyone that is here from another country, completely ignoring the status of the immigrant. We continuously hear the word immigration when the talking heads are really speaking about illegal immigration. Illegals are not American citizens – they cost American citizens billions of dollars.
Which conjures up another term:
Homeland Security – At the same time that we citizens (including 95-yr old Grannie) are being abused, humiliated and “felt-up” in airports by TSA employees, we like to think no radical terrorists are slipping in our porous border on the south along with that stream of illegals.
Green jobs – Where are they, again? GE sure got some green – zero tax liability. Consumers and taxpayers will lose lots of green over green jobs.
Environmental Protection Agency – Extort Peoples’ Assets (When Al Gore pitches a tent and rides a bike, we shall consider that he is correct.)
Employee Free Choice Act – Complete irony for coercion to vote “yes” for the unions = no free choice.
Stimulus Package – This incredibly obvious misnomer is actually very apropos–it stimulated government waste and the national debt.
Economist – Where is the administration official who has any business experience and has ‘economist’ on his resume? An economist ought to know how business works, not how government works. Oh, sorry, I forgot…government does not work. Unlike business, government can spend ad nauseum, print more money and still stay “in business.”
The Federal Reserve – We are learning to suspect anything labeled “federal” and sure don’t think we have a “reserve.” A supposed smart economist says, “We don’t have a precise read on why this slower pace of growth is persisting.” Here’s just one clue why (or, the reality I see): We’ve become a socialistic society and economy with leadership that encourages class warfare and insists that government can fix everything…with more spending! We are becoming Greece and France where double digit unemployment, out of control national debt and misery are common stagnations. This slow pace is not recovery; it is socialistic stagnation.
Affirmative Action – One example of what this really meant: Your government would get to decide who gets into medical school based on race quotas. Do you want your doctor to be someone who was a good Black student or one of the smartest in his/her class…regardless of race? That really is reverse discrimination. Forget about someone’s intelligence, grade average, potential and credentials; let’s make sure the race percentages are right! Life needs to be fair! And, your government will provide the rules and regulations to make it fair!
National Education Association – Does the NEA represent education or does it represent teachers’ benefits? They’re a union, so that pretty much answers the question. Behold the huge Atlanta scandal. Can the state of California afford to pay their current teachers while they honor the previous union contracts for retired teachers’ pension and health insurance benefits? Nope! Seems NYC has same huge issues with United Federation of Teachers “Union.” Each year we hear we need to spend more on education and the school dropout rate goes up! Hello!
Here’s an individual responsibility thought to mull over: Make the parents/guardians accountable for their kids that are using our public education system: late for school twice in one month: fine the parents; no homework done twice in one class in one week: fine the parents; lack of respect for the teacher/administrator/staff member—by disrupting the class or foul language: fine the parents. Taxpayers don’t need to pay for students that don’t show up, don’t participate and behave badly!
Remember the definition of insanity. We sure have to change our ways if we expect anything to change…for the better!

The Federal Government Looking Out For You
Aug 2, 2010 Political
The fact that Barack Hussein Obama (mmm, mmm, mmm) refuses to secure the border and has chosen to sue Arizona rather than do his job clearly demonstrates his contempt for America. He is working on a plan for backdoor amnesty and his Immigration services are not aggressively tackling the illegal immigrant issue.
If the government took the illegal alien problem seriously then one nun would not be dead and two in critical condition. An illegal who had been released on his own recognizance by immigration services, following his third drunk driving incident, hit a car carrying the nuns.
The man suspected of drunken driving and killing a Catholic nun in Prince William County this weekend is an illegal immigrant who was awaiting deportation and who federal immigration authorities had released pending further proceedings, police said Monday. Washington Times
One function of the federal government is to protect the citizens of this country. Unfortunately, Obama and his Democrats are more interested in increasing their voter base than ensuring the citizens of this country are safe.
Jan Brewer of Arizona has the right idea. Unfortunately the guy who rides around in an armored vehicle surrounded by a plethora of armed guards cares little about those of us who have no such protection.
And yes, I know that the nuns could have been hurt by a citizen but the fact is if the government were doing its job then this accident would not have happened.
Cave Canem!
Never surrender, never submit.

We’ll Get Amnesty Like We Get Our Illegal Aliens…
Jul 31, 2010 Immigration, Political
…Through the Back Door…
Each year millions of illegals sneak into this country through the back door. They walk across the porous southern border because the federal government refuses to do its job. When the states try to do the job the feds won’t do, Democrat appointed judges apply social justice rather than legal justice and the illegals just keep coming.
There have been several amnesties over the years and each time one was granted the American people were promised that there would not be a need for another amnesty and that the border would be secured. After the first amnesty more illegals arrived here and waited. They were granted amnesty and now even more have arrived. The illegals keep showing up because they know they will eventually get amnesty.
The American public knows that the federal government will NOT secure the border. Republicans like illegals as cheap labor and Democrats like them as voters. The Democrats pursuit of illegals is nothing more than a Democrat voter registration drive.
And it has to stop.
But it won’t. In fact, we are likely to get an amnesty without any act of Congress whatsoever. This is because the Obama regime is looking at options that will grant a de facto amnesty without the need for the pesky legislative process.
The internal draft written by officials at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services outlines ways the government could provide “relief” to illegal immigrants — including delaying deportation for some, perhaps indefinitely, or granting green cards to others — in the absence of legislation revamping the system. Yahoo News
This internal draft memo was made public by Senator Grassley of Iowa who stated that the memo confirms that the Obama regime is trying to do an end run around Congress and the legislative process.
The pro illegal immigrant groups are happy and state that this shows that someone is trying to fix the broken system.
Let me make this clear, the system is not broken. The way we enforce the existing laws is broken. We have an immigration system that has clearly defined methods to obtain a legal status in this country up to and including becoming a citizen. None of those methods involve allowing people to sneak into the country and then rewarding their criminal act with amnesty. No one can find that particular method in any law that is on the books.
The system is in place and it functions quite well when it is used properly (and enforced by the feds). People apply for a status (work visa, visitor visa, citizenship, etc) and they are evaluated. If there are no reasons they should be barred from entry then they are allowed in. If not then they are denied.
The broken part is the enforcement of our current laws. People who walk across the border without permission are invaders. They are breaking the law. There is no denying it. These people are lawbreakers and it does not matter why they did it, they are still lawbreakers.
I do not care if they need a better life, are not making it in their home country, their feet hurt, they need medical care, their Frosted Flakes got soggy, or any other excuse that might come up with for their presence here, THEY ARE LAW BREAKERS AND SHOULD NOT BE REWARDED.
But this is not how things are framed by Democrats who need more voters. They claim the system is broken. I would be happy to debate Obama or any other member of his regime on this issue because the system is not broken. The people who are not enforcing the law (and their judicial activists) are broken.
Obama knows that he will not get the amnesty he wants this session of Congress and he is pretty certain that he will not have the majority when the next Congress convenes in January 2011 so he is working on something now.
That something is backdoor amnesty and it is plain wrong.
The Executive Branch and its leader are also part of the system that is broken.
They refuse to do their jobs and for that we should hold them accountable.

Mexico Issues Arizona Travel Alert
Apr 28, 2010 Political
The new law in Arizona is already having a good effect in that Mexico has issued a travel alert to its citizens warning them about travel to Arizona without proper documentation. In other words, they are being warned not to get caught there illegally. Part of the message to Mexicans is:
“There is an adverse political environment for migrant communities and all Mexican visitors,” Mexico’s ministry said. “It’s important to act carefully and respect the local laws.” Bloomberg
Notice how the Mexican government thinks it is important to respect the laws in order not to get caught but has no such feeling about respecting the law that involves coming here illegally? Mexico has helped its people sneak across the border. That government has encouraged people to sneak in and printed books to assist them in doing so. The government there was not too concerned about respecting the law then.
Now that Arizona has finally clamped down on illegal immigration the government of Mexico wants its people to respect the law but only to avoid getting caught.
There are a lot of people upset about this law but it is a good one and it is written so as to prevent people from being profiled. The people who are upset are those who broke the law and are here illegally and those who believe in open borders and want to assist those who break the law.
About 70% of the legal residents in Arizona think the law is good and that matters more than what those who are here illegally think and it certainly matters more than what those who are assisting those who are here illegally think.
The Obama administration is looking into legal action against Arizona with regard to this law. Good luck with that.
The same people who will require us all to prove we have health insurance are loathe to require people to prove they are here legally.
And that about says it all with regard to the ineptitude of our government.
