I am sorry to see Lou Dobbs go. I am also glad that he is paying a price for his mistakes. Let me explain.
I firmly oppose illegal immigration. I think every illegal immigrant in the country should go back to their native country and go through the legal, cumbersome, humiliating, irrational and arbitrary system. Did I mention corrupt?
Here’s more proof that Obama wants to legitimize illegal aliens. Obama’s Department of Homeland Security stripped Sheriff Joe Arpaio of his department’s authority to arrest suspected illegal immigrants based solely on their immigration status. Huh?
What else is there? Do we wait until they murder, rape, or rob a store and then arrest them?
Senate Finance Committee Democrats killed an amendment by Finance Committee ranking member Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) that would have required illegal aliens prove their identity with photo identification when signing up for federal healthcare programs.
Given the high number of false and/or stolen identities these people have access to what the hell were they thinking?
The census is on it’s way next year, and the democrats are hoping to count each and every illegal alien in the country. It may be a bit harder with ACORN out of the picture, but it seems Tom Henry is stepping in where ACORN was pushed out.
Henry hired Palermo Galindo as Fort Wayne’s Hispanic-immigrant liaison back in June. Palermo Galindo operates Centro De Dinero, one of those high-priced check cashing services whose target audience is the Hispanic market, and undoubtedly Fort Wayne’s illegal alien population.
“Even though I do not believe we can extend coverage to those who are here illegally, I also don’t simply believe we can simply ignore the fact that our immigration system is broken,” Mr. Obama said Wednesday evening in a speech to the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute. “That’s why I strongly support making sure folks who are here legally have access to affordable, quality health insurance under this plan, just like everybody else.
Mr. Obama added, “If anything, this debate underscores the necessity of passing comprehensive immigration reform and resolving the issue of 12 million undocumented people living and working in this country once and for all.”
Translation: he wants to give amnesty to the 12 million illegal aliens so they can not only get government provided healthcare, but also, so they can vote for him in 2012.
Obama, Pelosi and the rest of the democrats are whining about how unfair it is that conservatives have become a community of organized protestors. According to Pelosi, we’re nothing more than a bunch of “political terrorists” hellbent on stopping free speech.
So now according to one woman in this video, (who may have been a cop), talking to someone else is considered resisting arrest? Watching this video, but be warned it may make your blood boil.
Denver photojournalist El Marco was at the event and has an amazing pictorial essay detailing how Pelo-cchio’s Astroturf brigade had to be coached by professional organizers — including several day laborers who didn’t speak English and couldn’t tell what the signs they were holding read. And they accuse Tea Party folks of being puppets?
Okay, I don’t speak the Spanish lingo, I used Babelfish, so correct me if you want.
The Department of Justice last month walked away from a winning case of voter intimidation against members of the New Black Panther Party. Apparently that wasn’t enough. Now they’re telling the state of Georgia they can no longer verify that someone is actually a U.S. citizen before they can vote.
Georgia’s citizenship verification process was actually produced with the help of the DOJ. In a six-page letter released yesterday, DOJ lawyers said Handel’s office had created a system that “does not produce accurate and reliable information and that thousands of citizens who are in fact eligible to vote under Georgia law have been flagged.”
From Georgia Secretary of State office:
“DOJ has thrown open the door for activist organizations such as ACORN to register non-citizens to vote in Georgia’s elections, and the state has no ability to verify an applicant’s citizenship status or whether the individual even exists. DOJ completely disregarded Georgia’s obvious and direct interest in preventing non-citizens from voting, instead siding with the ACLU and MALDEF. Clearly, politics took priority over common sense and good public policy.
It should be noted that not one single voter in the entire state claimed they could not vote because of the verification process.
This should come as no surprise as the Obama administration is merely working to insure the 495,000 illegal aliens living in Georgia can vote for him come 2012.
A release from Georgia Secretary of State Karen Handel is below the fold.
