Chain migration, immigration, migration, refugees... Call it what you want, it ain't working. At least not for the non-muslim nations of the world. Europe opened its arms to an invasion of muslim, mid-east, African, global "refugees" and migrants over the past several years and the migrants are asserting their laws, their rules, their culture and beginning to reap their "rewards" much to our European friends chagrin.
Europe is knee-jerking as a result of the impacts the massive "immigration" has caused to their respective countries via the seemingly "open borders" immigration.
Europe is just now catching on to the mess, the cancer they've created, encouraged and subsequently cultivated. They're trying desperately to catch up the the hordes of "immigrants", "refugees" who were invited into their respective countries and are now trashing the hell out of their respective countries, not to mention their respective cultures.
Nope. This "open borders, refugee, migration" thing was not a good idea. If the "refugees" are in need of assistance. If they're in genuine need of care and protection then I still suggest those who desire to help them have them "refugee" in place. Let's take our care to their shores, their soils, their locales.
Don't bring them to ours. If they want to migrate then they can migrate via the respective receiving, agreeing nation's immigration laws and procedures, not make shift, U.N. "approved/sanctioned/enforced" compulsive "immigration".
Remember, the United Nations... it's not our friend.
IMHO
Thanks to Daniel Pipes and the Middle East Forum for the linked information.

Looking at IMMIGRATIONS. Specifically, how the RAISE Act is working...
Remember the RAISE act introduced by Republican Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton and discussed previously on other sources earlier this year? Well it seems to be doing the job it was designed to do.
In brief, it's intent is to
1- End the "Visa Lottery"
2- Limit annual refugee admissions to 50,000
3- End chain migration
4- Reduce worldwide level of family-sponsored immigrants from 480,000 to 88,000 by only prioritizing the nuclear family.
5- Add a nonimmigrant visa for parents of adult U.S. citizens (W-Visa) that could be renewable in 5 years with no work authorization or ability to receive public benefits assigned to the visa.
In essence, it's what we need to regain control of our country and it's a step in the right direction at least.
So how's it working so far?
Well, there's some bumps in the road.
Here are the problems...
You see, the mainstream media makes their failed and flawed arguments via distortions, all smoke and mirrors. We need to get down into the weeds with those groups, those sources like Numbers USA and those folks like Jeremy Beck who actually do research their subject matter and do report the truth.

U.S. Immigration Reform Suggestions!
I copied this from a "comments" section of a rather non-descript article out there. It's about "Immigration Reform":
From: "John Doe the Troll" 1 hour ago
Here is how the reform should look:
The New Republic of Texas Immigration Laws:
1. There will be no special bilingual programs in the schools.
2. All ballots will be in this nation's language.
3. All government business will be conducted in our language.
4. Non-residents will NOT have the right to vote no matter how long they
are here.
5. Non-citizens will NEVER be able to hold political office.
6. Foreigners will not be a burden to the taxpayers. No welfare, no food
stamps, no health care, or other government assistance programs.
Any burden will be deported.
7. Foreigners can invest in this country, but it must be an amount at
least equal to 40,000 times the daily minimum wage.
8. If foreigners come here and buy land... options will be restricted.
Certain parcels including waterfront property are reserved for citizens
naturally born into this country.
9. Foreigners may have NO protests; NO demonstrations, NO waving of
a foreign flag, no political organizing, NO bad-mouthing our president
or his policies. These will lead to immediate deportation.
10. If you do come to this country illegally, you will be actively hunted and,
when caught, sent to jail until your deportation can be arranged. All
assets will be taken from you.
Too strict? The above laws are current immigration laws of MEXICO...

A citizen's comments regarding Illegal Immigration in the U.S.A.
A citizen’s comments in response to a report on “The Blaze” entitled: Obama Admin Will Circumvent Congress With New Illegal Immigration Rule
Posted By: Citizen with Common Sense (Yahoo I.D.)... • St Louis, Missouri • 01/06/12
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Listed below are several of the arguments that have been used by misguided people to try and justify illegal immigration. Next to each is the reason why that argument has no merit.
1) They are an economic necessity - Not true. The idea that a bunch of desperately poor, uneducated, unskilled, non-English speaking foreigners are an economic necessity is ludicrous. In fact, when you compare cost vs. benefit, it is obvious that they are not only NOT a necessity, they are not even an asset. Rather, they are a liability and a huge one at that.
2) They do work Americans won’t do - Not true. They do work Americans won’t do for $7 an hour (especially if Americans can collect welfare and unemployment instead). Of course, if you got rid of the illegals, the jobs wouldn’t pay $7 an hour. The people who wanted the work done would have to pay a wage that was attractive enough to get Americans to do the work. And it might even be enough to get Americans off the unemployment and welfare dole and back into the taxpaying workforce!
3) We benefit from all that “cheap” labor - This is nonsense. The only people who benefit from the cheap labor are the unscrupulous people who hire illegal immigrants. Taxpayers are left holding the bag. Ultimately, it is they who must pay to support all the Americans who have been put out of work by illegals and must also provide billions of dollars in services and benefits to the illegals themselves.
4) They are just trying to make better lives - Aren’t we all? The difference is that most of us understand that we DO NOT have a right to acquire by illegal means those things that we find difficult to acquire by legal means. And we certainly don’t have the right to do it in a foreign country.
5) It is impossible to round up and deport the illegals - We don’t have to. All we have to do is remove the incentives that brought them here in the first place. No jobs. No housing. No taxpayer financed services or benefits (including education). Once we remove the incentives that brought them here, they will leave on their own.
6) Immigration control is racist / xenophobic - This is just another play of the race card by people who have no other cards to play. Immigration control is the world-wide status quo. There is nothing racist about it. Furthermore, the USA welcomes LEGAL immigrants of all races and ethnicities from all over the world who have gone through the legal immigration process. This is not just a bad argument, it is an attempt to create racial hatred and division.
7) We are a nation of immigrants - This is the “BIG LIE”. The vast majority of Americans are native-born. I am not an immigrant. Nor were my parents. Nor were my grandparents. We are a nation that has, historically, allowed and even encouraged LEGAL immigration. And we continue to do so. The issue at hand is illegal immigration, which has nothing to do with legal immigration.
8) They are people. We must treat them humanely - Yes & yes. But lets not pretend like they are victims who were dragged here kicking and screaming against their will. Nothing could be further from the truth. They came of their own free will and for their own benefit and they broke the law to do it. People should not be rewarded for breaking laws and committing crimes. Sending them home is the right thing to do. There is nothing “draconian” or “mean-spirited” about it.
9) It is wrong to break up families- Yes. Unfortunately, families are often broken up by criminal activity. If you don’t believe it, just drop by any prison or jail on visiting day. We can’t keep families together if some family members choose to participate in criminal activity.
10) They work & contribute to our society - So do I. And if I break the law and commit crimes, I can expect to pay a penalty of some kind. Anything from a small fine to the death penalty. I do not receive a reward. Why should we treat foreign criminals better than our own citizens?

What the socialized health care proposal can do for you!
Here's the full Health Care bill that sits in the House. Here is a link to the House Bill, H.R.3200. It's a long read!
The following information was forwarded to me from a blogger in Montana. If you're even curious about whether the proposed socialized health care is good for us as citizens, as a nation you might want to look at the comments made by Peter Fleckstein as Peter wades through the 1,000 plus pages of the bill. He's taken the time to analyze in layman terms what the bill is all about.
Here's some of his comments he "tweeted" over the past several days:

And Peter's not done!!! How in the hell can we expect our political representatives to adequately represent us when they're advocating crap like what's been divulged in this proposed bill so far?
Peter hasn't even got half way through the bill! And look at the common language, plain text explanations of what's being proposed.
Folks, THIS IS SERIOUS!!! I don't know about you but I for one don't want to lose my current coverage, doctor and existing health plan. I also don't want a bunch of fat cat politicos who think they're my supreme advisor making decisions for me that will eventually affect my and my family's quality of life.
I don't want our employees, those who were selected by us, the fine citizens of this fantastic nation to stuff an ill advised, socialized, dangerous health care bill down our throats against our will!
Those senators, representatives and other drones back there in Washington D.C. had better WAKE UP and LISTEN! They work for US! We sent them back to that political circus to get things done that we want done! Not what they think needs to be done even though we, the citizens are against it!
I say NO! to this health care reform bill! NO! to any politico who supports it! NO! to the Brian Bairds, Patty Murrays, Adam Smiths, Arlen Specters, Nancy Pelosis, Ted Kennedys, Howard Deans, Jim McDermotts, Barney Franks, Barbara Boxers, Joe Bidens, Barry Obamas and all others who insist they know what's best for us! NO! to those who support this bill!
I am not a political terrorist. I am not a Nazi. I am not a racist! I am not politically inclined! I am not a hooligan! I am in fact, more patriotic than you, our elected politicos evidently!. I am a blue collar, well educated, average, everyday, hard working, taxpaying, proud American family man, a citizen of this fine, fine United States of America! I don't need some political fat cat so far removed from my life, my existence to force feed me something I don't want for me or my family!
It appalls me to see some of these politicos who thought for years that they're untouchable try to belittle and degrade the very citizens of this country who elected them into that fat cat job they have in the first place. Where's that REPRESENTATION we were promised when you first campaigned and were elected into your office by us, the citizens of this fine nation!
Just because some of us speak out against your foolhardy, politically inclined socialist plans doesn't mean we're unpatriotic, racists, radicals, terrorists, nazis who have nothing better to do than complain and disrupt your process of gaining control.
We're done with you. We're speaking out and we're demanding answers. You work for US! Don't abandon your morals to gain control! Do what's right for once and listen to the citizens that put you where you are! Drop this socialized nonsense... health care reform, immigration, cap and trade, bailouts, etc. Drop this stuff and work on something real, something that will positively affect this country, us citizens as a whole!
If you want health care reform start focusing on TORT REFORM! Limit the damages awarded to attorneys and their clients when it comes to malpractice lawsuits! Tighten the rules and protect the health care we currently have. Reduce the costs of drugs by sharing the costs of development with the rest of the world. Provide free or reduced priced health care to those who truly need it but don't take away what's already here! Don't deprive my family and I of the health care I currently have!
Finally, if you're going to shove it down our throats... if you still insist on that politicos then abandon your health care that we provide to you and sign on to the plan you're proposing and insisting is better for us, the general population!
I say vote them all out and start over!
This whole health care reform idea currently on the table is a fiasco. It's poorly authored, caters to special interest groups, establishes unwarranted and dangerous controls on the lives of the fine citizens of this country and is wrought with greed, contempt and corruption!

And Peter's not done!!! How in the hell can we expect our political representatives to adequately represent us when they're advocating crap like what's been divulged in this proposed bill so far?
Peter hasn't even got half way through the bill! And look at the common language, plain text explanations of what's being proposed.
Folks, THIS IS SERIOUS!!! I don't know about you but I for one don't want to lose my current coverage, doctor and existing health plan. I also don't want a bunch of fat cat politicos who think they're my supreme advisor making decisions for me that will eventually affect my and my family's quality of life.
I don't want our employees, those who were selected by us, the fine citizens of this fantastic nation to stuff an ill advised, socialized, dangerous health care bill down our throats against our will!
Those senators, representatives and other drones back there in Washington D.C. had better WAKE UP and LISTEN! They work for US! We sent them back to that political circus to get things done that we want done! Not what they think needs to be done even though we, the citizens are against it!
I say NO! to this health care reform bill! NO! to any politico who supports it! NO! to the Brian Bairds, Patty Murrays, Adam Smiths, Arlen Specters, Nancy Pelosis, Ted Kennedys, Howard Deans, Jim McDermotts, Barney Franks, Barbara Boxers, Joe Bidens, Barry Obamas and all others who insist they know what's best for us! NO! to those who support this bill!
I am not a political terrorist. I am not a Nazi. I am not a racist! I am not politically inclined! I am not a hooligan! I am in fact, more patriotic than you, our elected politicos evidently!. I am a blue collar, well educated, average, everyday, hard working, taxpaying, proud American family man, a citizen of this fine, fine United States of America! I don't need some political fat cat so far removed from my life, my existence to force feed me something I don't want for me or my family!
It appalls me to see some of these politicos who thought for years that they're untouchable try to belittle and degrade the very citizens of this country who elected them into that fat cat job they have in the first place. Where's that REPRESENTATION we were promised when you first campaigned and were elected into your office by us, the citizens of this fine nation!
Just because some of us speak out against your foolhardy, politically inclined socialist plans doesn't mean we're unpatriotic, racists, radicals, terrorists, nazis who have nothing better to do than complain and disrupt your process of gaining control.
We're done with you. We're speaking out and we're demanding answers. You work for US! Don't abandon your morals to gain control! Do what's right for once and listen to the citizens that put you where you are! Drop this socialized nonsense... health care reform, immigration, cap and trade, bailouts, etc. Drop this stuff and work on something real, something that will positively affect this country, us citizens as a whole!
If you want health care reform start focusing on TORT REFORM! Limit the damages awarded to attorneys and their clients when it comes to malpractice lawsuits! Tighten the rules and protect the health care we currently have. Reduce the costs of drugs by sharing the costs of development with the rest of the world. Provide free or reduced priced health care to those who truly need it but don't take away what's already here! Don't deprive my family and I of the health care I currently have!
Finally, if you're going to shove it down our throats... if you still insist on that politicos then abandon your health care that we provide to you and sign on to the plan you're proposing and insisting is better for us, the general population!
I say vote them all out and start over!
This whole health care reform idea currently on the table is a fiasco. It's poorly authored, caters to special interest groups, establishes unwarranted and dangerous controls on the lives of the fine citizens of this country and is wrought with greed, contempt and corruption!

Gun Control...
...as designed.
From an email...
Shooting in Butte , Montana
Shotgun preteen vs. illegal alien Home Invaders:
Butte, Montana November 5, 2008
Two illegal aliens, Ralphel Resindez, 23, and Enrico Garza, 26, probably believed they would easily overpower home-alone 11 year old Patricia Harrington after her father had left their two-story home.
It seems the two crooks never learned two things: they were in Montana , and Patricia had been a clay shooting champion since she was nine.
Patricia was in her upstairs room when the two men broke through the front door of the house. She quickly ran to her father's room and grabbed his 12 gauge Mossberg 500 shotgun.
Resindez was the first to get up to the second floor only to be the first to catch a near point blank blast of buckshot from the 11-year-old's knee crouch aim . He suffered fatal wounds to his abdomen and genitals.
When Garza ran to the foot of the stairs, he took a blast to the left shoulder and staggered out into the street where he bled to death before medical help could arrive.
It was found out later that Resindez was armed with a stolen 45 caliber handgun he took from another home invasion robbery. That victim, 50-year-old David Burien, was not so lucky. He died from stab wounds to the chest.
Ever wonder why good stuff never makes NBC, CBS, PBS, MSNBC, CNN, or ABC news? An 11 year old girl, properly trained, defended her home and herself... against two illegal immigrants... and she wins, she is still alive.
Now that is Gun Control !
Thought for the day:
Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist.'

How about this for some great news!!!
This is coming from an article I read on Yahoo news yesterday. I was going to comment on it yesterday but got tied up at work. Go figure!
Here’s the info with some of my comments tossed in…
"Fla. sheriff targets illegals
By MELISSA NELSON, Associated Press Writer Wed Jun 27, 2:27 PM ET
PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. - The sheriff's department has developed a remarkably effective — and controversial — way of catching illegal immigrants: Deputies in patrol cars pull up to a construction site in force, and watch and see who runs.
Those who take off are chased down and arrested on charges such as trespassing, for cutting through someone else's property, or loitering, for hiding out in someone's yard, or reckless driving, for speeding off in a car.U.S. immigration authorities are then given the names of those believed to be in this country illegally.
"It's not wrong for them to run, but it's not wrong for us to chase them either," said Sheriff Frank McKeithen, who created his Illegal Alien Task Force in April to target construction sites in this Florida Panhandle county."
I hate to break the news to some of you folks but this has been around for quite awhile. I’ve seen it used on lumber and cedar mills up here in the Pacific Northwest. It’s very effective and although “controversial” to illegal immigrant advocates (i.e. the ACLU, Catholic Church, Mexican American Legal Defense Fund, etc.) it’s been dubbed an effective, proper and legal tactic in this neck of the woods anyways.
”Immigrant advocates say the technique is repugnant, and the ACLU says its constitutionality is questionable.
Illegal immigrants are leaving town. And builders are worried the crackdown will deprive them of the labor they need to take part in a building boom in which Panama City's Beach cheap spring-break motels are being torn down and replaced with high-rise condos."
”Illegal immigrants are leaving town.” Isn’t that the overall goal of immigration reform? Convince those who are in this country ILLEGALLY to leave. Wouldn’t it make sense to get those who are going through the proper legalization process LEGALIZED ahead of the line-cutting, demanding, want it all now cockroaches who infested this fine country over the past couple of decades?
Why aren’t the ACLU, the Catholic Church, the Mexican American Legal Defense Fund and the other immigrant advocate groups out there defending those who are trying to get things done the RIGHT WAY? Why do these organizations insist upon protecting those who are here ILLEGALLY? Why defend the criminals over the righteous?
”The sheriff said the raids are justified under a long-standing Florida law prohibiting employers from knowingly hiring illegal immigrants.
His department has conducted dozens of these raids over the past three months, sometimes using five or six patrol cars, and has reported more than 500 people to immigration officials since November.”
Finally, someone with balls who will stand up and work WITH the INS. I heard yesterday that the 25 largest cities in the United States are sanctuary cities for ILLEGALS. Go figure! But if you or I were to cross the street outside of a crosswalk in any of those cities, if we were to inadvertently run a red light we’d be stopped, cited and our entire pedigree would be run through the computer. They’d certainly be identifying us, the LEGAL citizens.
”The Mexican American Legal Defense Fund is investigating the arrests because "the intimidation factor is of great concern," said Elise Shore, regional counsel for the organization.
Benjamin Stevenson, an attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union in Florida, said he finds the tactic troubling."Why are they sending out six or seven agents to investigate a paper crime, and are they causing them to run in the first place through intimidation?" he asked.”
What would be the source of intimidation? Perhaps uniformed law enforcement officers driving up to a work site to do their job. The ILLEGALS surely know their status and are going to run… why not? That’s not intimidation, that’s good police work. It’s a simple drive up and watch the roaches flee type of work. Then they simply follow those who flee until they break a law. Once a law is broken the officers intervene and do their job to protect and serve the taxpaying public who’s paying their salaries.
I thought that’s what the whole law enforcement profession was all about… to protect and serve.
When I was a kid growing up out here in the Pacific Northwest we would have little parties in the woods called “keggers”. Someone of legal age would buy at least one keg, give out a location and we’d all go to that location after school, usually on a Friday evening. We’d be partying down pretty good and the local deputies would quite often pull up in force. Those of us who were under the legal age would take off running through the forests. The deputies would chase some of us. Some would get caught, most wouldn’t. Those who didn’t run were identified by the deputies and were “released” because they were of legal age.
This is not a new tactic… just an effective one.
”As the debate over illegal immigration plays out in Washington, McKeithen is among a growing number of state and local officials taking it upon themselves to enforce immigration laws that up to now were regarded as a federal responsibility.
For example, Farmers Branch, Texas, is trying to prohibit apartment rentals to illegal immigrants in the Dallas suburb. Georgia passed a law requiring employers to verify the immigration status of all new employees.
Barbara Gonzalez, a spokeswoman for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Miami, would not comment on the sheriff's tactics.
McKeithen has asked Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum for a legal opinion on his tactics. A spokeswoman for McCollum said the office is researching the request.”
Yea Baby!!! The dhimmicrats and those few spineless republicans had it handed to them yesterday, eh? I think the debate over illegal immigration was pretty much put on ice with yesterdays IN YOUR FACE defeat of that Kennedy/McCain amnesty bill congress tried to shove down our throats.
”McKeithen is already under fire from civil rights groups over the videotaped 2006 death of a 14-year-old boy who was roughed up by guards at a juvenile boot camp operated by the sheriff's department. Eight former employees are facing manslaughter charges.”
Although tragic, what the hell does this have to do with the deputies chasing ILLEGAL immigrants? Those who “roughed up” the 14 years old inmate are facing manslaughter charges. Give them their day in court. It’s not as if someone tried to cover the incident up and really has no relevance to the ILLEGAL roach infestation currently at hand.
”The sheriff said that more recently, his officers have been making fewer arrests of workers who flee, and are concentrating more on asking employers for the paperwork on their employees. Sheriff's deputies then arrest workers whose documents are found to be fraudulent.”
More good police work! What’s wrong with sending deputies to check the documents of employers to ensure the documents are not fraudulent? Isn’t that what this whole law enforcement thing is all about? To follow up on tips, leads, to act on trends to ensure the community they’re sworn to protect and serve is protected and served appropriately?
If these officers weren’t doing their jobs the community would most likely be in an uproar. And rightfully so!
”Mexican illegal immigrant Jose Madrid, 28, said he has been unable to find a construction job over the past six weeks because of the crackdown, and hasn't been able to send money to his parents and his 7-year-old son back home.”
Oh… poor Jose! If he can’t find a job then something right is happening for once.
All of those folks who have been saying the laws we currently have in place ”just simply aren’t effective enough” should stand up and take notice of Jose’s plight.
He can’t find a job in construction because the police are enforcing the immigration laws… those VERY laws that are currently on the books. The money that he can’t send home to his parents and his 7 year old son can be earned by a fellow citizen and used here in this country to support his or her family.
What a concept!
"We immigrants, we are leaving Panama City. People are afraid they will be deported," he said. "The companies don't want to hire illegal people. Now they're only hiring those with papers."
Cool! Especially the part about ”The companies don’t want to hire illegal people. Now they’re only hiring those with papers.” Spoken by one of the very ILLEGAL's himself!
Wow! So what MELISSA NELSON, the Associated Press Writer is telling us in her recent article is that the Sheriff’s law enforcement tactics are working very well!
Those laws that our congressmen and congresswomen have been claiming to be unenforceable, those very tactics that we’ve been told are inept and simply won’t work are being used quite effectively by Sheriff Frank McKeithen in Florida.
Fantastic work Sheriff!
“Developer Louis Breland is finishing the first phase of a $750 million beach condo project. "Subcontractors could not function without immigrant laborers for painting, rebar and steel work. They are the best workers," he said. "Without them, the cost of construction would be 10 times as much and nothing would get built."
How about cutting back on your fat cat profits you get from using the ILLEGAL crowd? How about doing things right? How about hiring those who live in this country LEGALLY and paying them a wage for once? How about supporting those families who ARE your fellow citizens rather than sending the money home with those who have no intentions of spending any of it here?
I have no compassion for ILLEGAL immigrants who are being hunted down like the dogs they are and shipped back to where they came from. I also have no compassion for those "contractors" who are circumventing the system, taking advantage of our "social" medicine and aren't paying their fair share of labor and industries insurance for their "employees". They're making huge bucks by cheating the system.
No compassion! NONE!

A mix of world news. My tirades for the week of May 19---
Okay, so the "Tirade" posts aren't actually posted on a weekly basis but hey, they're posted.
That's my nature. I'm one of those sporadic, spur of the moment, seat of pants, impromptu, when I feel the urge type of guys. It doesn't mean I didn't have any tirades over the past several weeks. It means I didn't commit them to this blog.
So, let's get started.
---This isn't the only border this nation has.
A whole bunch of folks from California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas seem to think it is. These folks seem to think they're the authority on our borders and the "border" is not a problem.
They'll argue we are the problem. Us, the citizens of the United States are the problem. We're the problem for wanting to keep our borders in check. For wanting to know just exactly who is coming into our country. We're the problem for wanting to know who's here, how long they intend on staying, what they intend on doing while they're here and where they're planning on staying, what they're bringing with them and what their criminal history might be in their own country.
In fact, quite a few of them believe we shouldn't even have border security. They believe leisurely trips across the borders on weekends or weeknights for a bit of grub, a cup of coffee, an exchange of smiles should occur unfettered, totally without government intervention.
The 1,900 plus miles of the Mexico - United States border is a troublesome border. There are thousands of well intended individuals crossing it daily in search of employment, of a better life, in pursuit of a personal dream--- in search of all sorts of things. These people travel across this border in BOTH directions yet, we only focus on the immigrants coming here to the U.S.
What about when we go there? What about the lines at immigrations, at the borders. The searches of luggage, vehicles. What about the arrogance of their border security people? Their open disdain for the American tourist. Their intentions are simple to read--- "come in, spend your money and leave. Go home as soon as you can."
So yes, for those of you who live on this little southwest border it's most likely not an issue for you. You've become familiar with the attitudes, the belligerence. In fact some of you even share these attitudes with them.
You share their dreams for open borders for your own personal satisfaction. Your own greed. Like them you want to be able to come and go as you please. You want to take advantage of systems, of others that you would normally not be able to take advantage of. You've done it for years but not without hassles. At times you've had to jump through some hoops to get your way and that annoys you. So now, "while the iron's hot" you want to strike! You want to reform this nation's immigration laws. You want to forgo border security because YOU do not perceive any threat there.
Personally, I have a problem with that. And yes, I do live in a border state. This particular border isn't all that secure either but we certainly don't have the problems you folks have. And this border is twice as long as yours.
My suggestion to our wonderful neighbors from the south--- Do it legally.
As a side note, did any of you hear Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa's speech last week regarding immigration reform.
You know, the speech where he addressed hundreds if not thousands of immigrants, illegal and otherwise, in the streets of Los Angeles.
The speech where he claimed that this nations immigration laws are in sore need of repair. The speech where he alluded to amnesty, hinting that amnesty was in order.
The speech he made in spanish.
Not Vietnamese, not Cambodian, not Swahili, not Russian, Finnish, Arabic, Mandarin but in Spanish!
It seems he's locked in on that southwest mentality as well. A bit biased I'd say. Can we say "Racist"?
There are other borders and there are other immigrants. The huge difference is that most of those immigrants are trying to do things right.
There should be no amnesty for those who are here illegally. It's as simple as that.
Secure the borders, round up the illegals, send them home and show them the right way to come back.
Work on immigration reform! But let's enforce the laws we currently have on the books while we do.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---The dhimmi-crats and their version of "troop support".
Another funding package with timetables, deadlines. Another veto bill.
They know in advance they're not going to get anywhere with these half assed "troop funding" bills. They've been in "power" for months and they haven't passed a single piece of legislation! They're obsessed with their hatred of George Bush. They're obsessed with bringing Bush's leadership to it's knees. They're obsessed with smearing the Republican party's past successes, with shaming whoever they can shame, with promoting angst in this nation's political arena.
The dhimmi-crats are not representative of our American tolerance, progression, patience, unity.
The dhimmi-crats are obsessed with dividing the American populace, obsessed with fear.
They're desperate, they're scared and they're on the brink of panic. They know the 2008 elections are rapidly approaching and they know their popularity is waning.
They know their "leadership" is a shambles, devoid of an relevance, any integrity, credibility.
Pelosi, Reid, Kennedy, Murtha??? Are these the leaders we want for our nation tomorrow?
Do we want this leadership coupled with the likes of Clinton or Obama?
Personally, I don't. I voted for Bill Clinton years ago. Perhaps that's why I'm not going there again.
All I can say is the Republicans are letting it happen to them. They aren't united and they've become the whipping boys the dhimmi-crats have made them out to be. They're spineless and embarrasingly weak.
It's a rant, but it's mine!
For what it's worth.
That's my nature. I'm one of those sporadic, spur of the moment, seat of pants, impromptu, when I feel the urge type of guys. It doesn't mean I didn't have any tirades over the past several weeks. It means I didn't commit them to this blog.
So, let's get started.---This isn't the only border this nation has.
A whole bunch of folks from California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas seem to think it is. These folks seem to think they're the authority on our borders and the "border" is not a problem.
They'll argue we are the problem. Us, the citizens of the United States are the problem. We're the problem for wanting to keep our borders in check. For wanting to know just exactly who is coming into our country. We're the problem for wanting to know who's here, how long they intend on staying, what they intend on doing while they're here and where they're planning on staying, what they're bringing with them and what their criminal history might be in their own country.
In fact, quite a few of them believe we shouldn't even have border security. They believe leisurely trips across the borders on weekends or weeknights for a bit of grub, a cup of coffee, an exchange of smiles should occur unfettered, totally without government intervention.
The 1,900 plus miles of the Mexico - United States border is a troublesome border. There are thousands of well intended individuals crossing it daily in search of employment, of a better life, in pursuit of a personal dream--- in search of all sorts of things. These people travel across this border in BOTH directions yet, we only focus on the immigrants coming here to the U.S.
What about when we go there? What about the lines at immigrations, at the borders. The searches of luggage, vehicles. What about the arrogance of their border security people? Their open disdain for the American tourist. Their intentions are simple to read--- "come in, spend your money and leave. Go home as soon as you can."
So yes, for those of you who live on this little southwest border it's most likely not an issue for you. You've become familiar with the attitudes, the belligerence. In fact some of you even share these attitudes with them.
You share their dreams for open borders for your own personal satisfaction. Your own greed. Like them you want to be able to come and go as you please. You want to take advantage of systems, of others that you would normally not be able to take advantage of. You've done it for years but not without hassles. At times you've had to jump through some hoops to get your way and that annoys you. So now, "while the iron's hot" you want to strike! You want to reform this nation's immigration laws. You want to forgo border security because YOU do not perceive any threat there.
Personally, I have a problem with that. And yes, I do live in a border state. This particular border isn't all that secure either but we certainly don't have the problems you folks have. And this border is twice as long as yours.
My suggestion to our wonderful neighbors from the south--- Do it legally.
As a side note, did any of you hear Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa's speech last week regarding immigration reform. You know, the speech where he addressed hundreds if not thousands of immigrants, illegal and otherwise, in the streets of Los Angeles.
The speech where he claimed that this nations immigration laws are in sore need of repair. The speech where he alluded to amnesty, hinting that amnesty was in order.
The speech he made in spanish.
Not Vietnamese, not Cambodian, not Swahili, not Russian, Finnish, Arabic, Mandarin but in Spanish!
It seems he's locked in on that southwest mentality as well. A bit biased I'd say. Can we say "Racist"?
There are other borders and there are other immigrants. The huge difference is that most of those immigrants are trying to do things right.
There should be no amnesty for those who are here illegally. It's as simple as that.
Secure the borders, round up the illegals, send them home and show them the right way to come back.
Work on immigration reform! But let's enforce the laws we currently have on the books while we do.

---The dhimmi-crats and their version of "troop support".
Another funding package with timetables, deadlines. Another veto bill.
They know in advance they're not going to get anywhere with these half assed "troop funding" bills. They've been in "power" for months and they haven't passed a single piece of legislation! They're obsessed with their hatred of George Bush. They're obsessed with bringing Bush's leadership to it's knees.

Amnesty---
---It’s as simple as that!
There’s nothing more to this “bi-partisan” sell out than that! Some of those in the United States government, some of OUR ELECTED LEADERS are selling out our very ethics, morals, values--- OUR COUNTRY, OUR YOUNG BUT RICH CULTURE by trying to force feed us another “Amnesty” program.
LISTEN UP!!!
SECURE OUR BORDERS! ROUND UP THE ILLEGAL ALIENS AND SEND THEM HOME! Back to where they came from. Back to their own countries so they can learn a bit about the difference between right and wrong, respect of values, laws, assimilation.
Let them know they’re in this country ILLEGALLY! Tell them that! Help them understand it and send them home.
If they wish to apply and come back through the legal process, so be it! Great! Let them apply, help them with the process, work with them and welcome them if and when they get approved. Help them adapt, assimilate.
But, let’s don’t reward people for bad behavior, lawlessness. Let’s have them go through our “immigration” process--- Our LEGAL “immigration” process. I mean, it’s worked for scores of thousands before them.
Let it work for them!
If the process needs streamlining, tweaking then let’s streamline it! Tweak it! Don’t wholesale it and don’t abandon it!
If it’s broken fix it and use it!
The dhimmi-crats and republicans need to get their respective heads out of their asses and listen to what the public is saying.
Kennedy, McCain, Bush, Feingold--- all of you jumping onto this giveaway bill--- you need to listen up a bit. You need to hear what is being said and understand that you’re not actually understanding what is being said now!
WE DON’T WANT AMNESTY!
If we grant amnesty to these illegal aliens we’re affording those who entered this fine country for whatever purpose, whatever motive the opportunity AND SUPPORT to carry on, regardless of the circumstances.
As we’ve learned from history that’s a dangerous practice.
Ask these illegal aliens why they’re fleeing their countries. Ask these illegal aliens why their home countries vigorously protect their borders. Ask these illegal aliens if non-citizens in their countries can openly protest and demand government AND CITIZEN concessions and get them. Ask these illegal aliens if non-citizens in their countries can demand free health care, education, welfare, transportation, legal representation and get it.
Ask them then ask them again why the left their homeland.
