Can Anyone Tell Me Why We Need Immigration Reform?

Well, can you?  I mean, we have all sorts of laws concerning immigration and we allow over half a million legal immigrants into our country every year.  "Well, what about amnesty?" - some people say.  I cannot figure out one thing about amnesty - that is why?  No one has been able to tell me what the real purpose of amesty is - besides making bunches of illegal aliens no longer illegal.  So I challenge anyone who bothers to come across this blog to please tell me what is it that amnesty accomplishes.

Do you wonder what is wrong with immigration in America?  I will give you a hint:  Maybe it is because of Border Czar * - Alan Bersin.  I mean if you see a problem, first look at who is in charge.  This guy was one of those "recess appointments" by Obama.  I do not understand why more people aren't calling this guy to the carpet concerning our immigration issues. He reports to: Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano

Supposedly his job includes:
   • Coordinate all of the department's border security and law-enforcement efforts..
   • We expect him to handle illegal immigration and drug violence issues along the Mexican-American border
   • Previous experience: Chairman of the San Diego Regional Airport Authority (2006 to 2009); Secretary of Education for California (2005 to 2006); Superintendent of San Diego Public Schools (1998 to 2005); U.S. Attorney for San Diego (1993 to 1998)
     • Talking about border security shortly before he was named Clinton border czar in 1995, said he wanted to focus on suspected smugglers of both drugs and people and was not interested in prosecuting “economic migrants.”

Bersin previously held a similar job in the Clinton Administration. He is tied to the policy in 1994 when the U.S. shifted focus from the arresting of immigrants who actually crossed the border to an increased border presence designed to stop border crossing in the first place. When Bersin left the position in 1998, border arrests were on pace for an 18-year low of just more than 200,000.

So maybe, just maybe just one more of these Obama appointments is the real reason for non-enforcement of immigration laws and  why we are in such a mess today.

Anyways, stay safe!

Our Country is Not an Embarrassment - Our President Is

Once again, I am embarrassed by our President. Don't get me wrong, I pray for him every day (after all, if he is gone then clueless Joe Biden takes over).  Yeah when the President of Mexico - you know Mexico, the country where the government can take your land, business, and everything else just because they want to country.  The country that is basically no longer safe for US citizens to visit because the streets cannot be made safe from drug cartels and other criminal gangs.  That Mexico - anyways their president says Mexico's violence and problems is America's fault!  Yes, in his country firearm ownership is banned totally, yet somehow we need to ban assault rifles because it is America's fault because we have "assault weapons."

Maybe if Mexico was less corrupt and actually took care of the drug lords then he may have some inkling of a point.  But so what?  The windbag from our southern neighbor spouts idiot remarks.  However, our spineless leader (spinless when it comes to standing up for America)  stands by and sheepishly smirks at the remarks.  He embarrassed me and most Americans by NOT calling down Mexico's President when he spouted his idiot saying.

Ok, I vented - stay safe and take care.

What I came Across Today

I was looking for a particular photo for my other blog - and I came across this. I thought it was quite funny. I post it in honor of the TOTUS.



Enjoy! And stay Safe!

American Power Act - Are you Kidding?

Look What John Kerry is doing "for" you now.

"The American Power Act" is simply a "cap and trade bill." Don't believe me? read "Part II Carbon Capture and Sequestration Deployment." It is nothing but cap and trade.

OK, I know some of the cap and trade folks are nuts - but guess what is claimed by the wing-nut blog "Center for American Progress". They actually think they can legislate fewer
hurricanes in Florida. No, I am not kidding! Their words: "Florida or Gulf Coast residents would face fewer severe tropical storms that can destroy homes and property, and cost millions of tax dollars to clean up." How naive can they be to think they can legislate hurricanes? It has "Reducing Global Warming Pollution" in the bill.

Ok, so this is based on AL Gore's claims about global warming er, I mean climate change, and he says the oceans will rise.



Note that Al Gore just spent nine million dollars on a house that would be in the flood zone (it is ocean view property) - I guess he doesn't really believe what he preaches - then again, anyone that thought he was doing anything other than an info-mercial for carbon credits he is scamming folks for deserve to be scammed.

The claim it will create jobs - there is no evidence of this, and more likely it would wreck the economy. First of all, no one knows how much "cap" to cap. (I know it says there will be a "panel of experts" but who chooses the experts?

This is the worst bill I have seen in ages - but then again John "I want to make sure and tax our troops" Kerry came up with the bill.

Ugh! Idiots in Congress and they do more of what people do not want!

Much Ado About Nothing

Well, after being home a while I see that there is still much ado about nothing. This seems to be by political folks that want to take away focus from what is important and focus on made-up issues.

What I am focusing on is the "new" immigration law in Arizona. All sorts of people have dropped the race card on this claiming it is a law that allows abuse and racial profiling.

Let's look at the facts:

• The law does not allow any police to stop anyone to ask for identification as an illegal alien.
• The law requires that stops be made as they are now under the law using reasonable suspicion or probable cause for a violation of the law.
• The law requires police to check for documentation on people they suspect are illegal aliens that have already been detained.

Note: Police always ask for identification on people detained before the law changed.

So where does anyone get racism out of this? Where do you get profiling from. There is NO CHANGE in how police can stop and detain people.

The only change is that the police can hold illegal aliens they have already detained for another reason under the state law.

So what is the problem? The only people that should be complaining are the police in Arizona - they are now doing someone else's job!

With all that is going on - I believe the stirring up of all of this is to get focus of of real issues so that people get off of the unemployment issues, the grow deficit, lack of immigration reform, lack of intelligence on terrorists and the like.



Anyways Stay Safe!

Why is anyone upset thatpolice ask for identification.
