Obama tries to put Republicans on immigration hot seat
Washington Times ^ | Thursday, July 1, 2010 | By Stephen Dinan

Posted on 07/01/2010 12:28:15 PM PDT by Anita1

On the hottest flash point in the debate, Arizona's new law targeting illegal immigrants, Mr. Obama said the rules are "unenforceable" for local police. But he didn't give any indication when the administration will file an expected lawsuit seeking to block the new law, which takes effect at the end of this month. ~ Advocates on both sides of the issue say they don't expect Congress to tackle the issue before the elections, both because of the already-crowded legislative schedule and because there is no clear consensus on how to proceed.

A caller on Rush today had a great sugestion. These people are NOT “illigal immigrants”, they are “illigal Democrats”. Let’s call them what they are.

This is an Alinskyite attempt at distraction and diversion to divert people's
attention from his own incompetence at handling the Gulf oil spill disaster.

“Our borders are just too vast for us to be able to solve the problem only with fences and border patrols.”

I agree with Obama. We should build a 40 foot high wall instead, from the coast of California to the Gulf of Mexico.....1,200 miles long. The border should also be patrolled by active duty Army and Marine Corps.

Seems to me that it has been proven in the past that fences work - IT WAS CALLED THE BERLIN WALL !!! But, it actually extended for hundreds of miles ...

Only, its purpose was to keep people in - not out !!!

Mark my words> If “reform” passes this country is finished. THEY KNOW THAT, and they know THAT YOU KNOW THAT. Obama will try and destroy this country before his term is up. We will think of him as the devil, the left will think of him as a martyr. The military is in their pocket. The higher ranks were infiltrated by the left long ago. We will either let this country go down the tubes passively, or it will trigger civil war...

If the GOP is afraid of the “Latino” reaction to opposing amnesty they should be crapping their collective pants about the reaction of their base if they don’t.

In the mid 70’s I saw illegals coming into Shenandoah Co Va. They were Mexican, humble and under the radar. A few of them married local girls to stay in the country. But most of them went home after the apples were picked. They caused no trouble so we let them do their work that we did not want and said nothing.

How I wish we could have those days back and raise a stink in a time that would have sent those fellows packing. I just took a visit home last week and found those humble fellows now quite brazen. The murder rate for the county is way up from the zero of years gone by. They have their own bars and restaurants.

They have ruined the culture and infiltrated things that do not belong to them. They treat my home county like it was their own spawning their legal brats (who can someday become president) meanwhile getting away with murder. I wish that the valley could be purged of every last illegal living there. But sadly we missed our last chance about 20 years ago.

But Democrats argue that legalizing illegal immigrants has to be done at the same time, both for practical reasons and because they fear if the borders are secured first, it might sap momentum from the push for legalization.

They say this because they have no intention of securing the border. They will pass amnesty and then immediately defund any new border security measures, and privately laugh at the Republicans for falling for it. Orrin Hatch will announce that he's never been so angry in his life, McCain and Graham will announce that they're shocked that the Democrats would lie to them this way.

So predictable.

They should just tell BO too bad, we won’t work with you on reform as long as the border problem is not addressed period. Hell, they already lost most of the hispanic racist vote and have nothing to lose by this confrontation. The pubs have come out and state they they will not just give BO and the rats those millions of indocumented democrats for nothing and call out those pro illegal activits group for the racists they are. They need to appeal to the over 60-percent of Americans that don’t want the illegals to be given a free pass.

Former CUNY professor admits to being a spy for Russia (wed to El Diario columnist)
7/1/10, NY POST, By BRUCE GOLDING and DAN MANGAN With AP

A former CUNY professor-----born in Peru----- accused of spying for Russia used a fake name and was married to an El Diario columnist. Juan Lazaro told federal authorities after his arrest that "he would not violate his loyalty to the" Russian secret "service even for his son." The ex-prof lived in Yonkers under the fake name "Juan Lazaro."

Lazaro told told investigators that his wife, El Diario columnist Vicky Pelaez, who has US citizenship, had delivered letters to their spymasters on his behalf, and that their Yonkers home "had been paid for by the 'Service.'" Vicky Pelaez is being held without bond along with "Lazaro" -- who is refusing to provide his real name -- on charges that they acted as agents for Russia.

The filing indicated that federal authorities were monitoring their home conversations by "microphones" "for years." Judge Ronald Ellis said Pelaez who has US citizenship, could be released on house arrest with a monitoring device if someone paid the $250,000 bond ($10,000 cash needed).--SNIP--

Regarding that sign...all we are seeing there is a Mexican version of the "slavery" angle. Something happened to their ancestors hundreds of years ago, so now...after sitting on their burros all these years, it's their version of "retribution".

Why don't we just go back to the beginning of time, and demand new fig leaves for Adam and Eve too, while we're at it.

Europeans, live in Europe. Americans - who have fought, bought, and paid dearly for our land - live in America.

America has borders, established by conquering enemies, purchases, and georgraphy; just because we have a pantywaist as president right now, who is hell bent to invent 22 million new democrats to keep himself in office, doesn't mean we're going to roll over and just give it up.

The president doesn't believe it, but being born in America makes us Americans...not Europeans. We didn't just land on Plymouth Rock a month ago and become squatters. It's been a long process and millions have died in the process of creating America, and we're not ready to just hand it over to a gang of hoodlums who just want to raid our treasury and natural resources.

The ARizona SB laws would have never been thought of if the "immigrants" would come over legally, and were not wreaking all the crime and havoc along the border and elsewhere.

So you can threaten all you want; you can bring in your little gangs...but if the American people are pushed to the brink, all hell is going to break loose...just so you know.

Actually, it was John Kennedy who started this “Nation of Immigrants” crap at the political level (he used the phrase in one of his speeches). It had existed amongst the liberal intelligentsia as far back as the 1930s, however, in protest against so-called oppressive WASPdom that was promoted in the past.

HISTORY OF AMNESTY Non stop illegal immigration----this is what amnesties have brought us.

Here’s some of the disastrous measures ultra-liberal Teddy Kennedy used to trash our culture. Kennedy was in a class by himself when it came to destroying our borders and our quality of life. He died, after promoting Obama, knowing Obama would continue destroying our borders.

Kennedy pushed SEVEN amnesties into law. Eeven though it was said to be the goal, none of it was ever followed by a reduction in illegal immigration.

1. In 1986, Ted Kennedy’s blanket amnesty for 2.7 million illegal aliens promised a lot more enforcement but did not set any requirements for actual reductions in illegal immigration.

2. In 1994, Ted Kennedy’s Section 245(i) Amnesty gave legal residence and jobs to 578,000 illegal aliens. It was a temporary rolling amnesty primarily for extended family members of immigrants who instead of waiting in line, come on to the country illegally.

3. In 1997, Ted Kennedy’s extension of the Section 245(i) rolling amnesty was followed by an increasing flow of illegal immigration.

4. In 1997, Ted Kennedy also won an amnesty for close to one million illegal aliens from Central America. Illegal immigration sped up some more.

5. In 1998, Ted Kennedy won an amnesty for 125,000 illegal aliens from Haiti.

6. In 2000, Ted Kennedy got the so-called Late Amnesty, legalizing another 400,000 illegal aliens who claimed that they missed out on Kennedy’s 1986 amnesty.

7. In 2000, Ted Kennedy also won the LIFE Act Amnesty for an estimated 900,000 illegal aliens. It was another reinstatement of the rolling Section 245(i) amnesty...an estimated 900,000 illegal aliens. Illegal immigration accelerated.

Your analysis is excellent -- we've been through this before, again and again. Besides, the Republicans have a large majority of Americans behind them on this issue ... (but the Republican Party has a hard-earned reputation as the "Stupid Party", so who's to say how this will turn out?)

He probably should have said "a nation of LEGAL immigrants"...and there are a lot of them...however, there are many, many more natural born citizens - and that makes them Americans, not Europeans.

As far as the connotation of "WASP", that in no way indicates that a "WASP" is a racist, nor is it a title of shame. WASPS founded and built this country, and fought and died for it. If it makes other races feel good to call us "WASPS", then, let them.

However, we are not the kind of people who will ever look at the ground and say "yessir" and "Nosir" to any kind of slave masters.

There are many countries who have tried to do that to America, and they all lost. And whild I'll admit that America has become somewhat "sissified" - thanks to pantywaist democrats - when it gets down to the nuttcuttin', Americans will rise up and defend themselves and their country...it's in our DNA.

All the sacrifice that has been made all these years is not going to be just handed over to bandits who call themselves "progressives"...most of them are of the "moocher class", and the only "progress" they ever made was convincing government to give them a free meal ticket. It's the main job of "community orgainizers" to get that done.

The WASPs aren't going away, and the majority of them will never "kneel before obamazod". He's not a baddass...he just plays one on TV.

obamazod

WHY DO OHAHA AND THE DIMS SUPPORT AMNESTY? B/c drug lords-----and their drones flooding across the border with knapsacks full of drugs-----are South American Marxists. Dems figure they can spread Marxism quickly throughout the US by amnestying Marxists. Drug lords are flooding the US with drugs and more illegal Dem voters through VZ and Cuba.

Mexicans are also making a fortune selling forged identities that allow these people to vote several times per identity. Read on.

===================================

HERE'S HOW ILLEGALS MAKE DEMOCRATS HAPPY---ALL THESE FAKE IDENTITIES VOTE AND VOTE AND VOTE. One illegal nabbed as the Washington rapist had 30 identities.

2 Texans accused of planning to sell counterfeit IDs

NORTH BERGEN -- (AP) 07/21/06---The Pelcastre brothers were a walking threat to national security -- expert document forgers who, for a few thousand dollars, could give anyone a new identity, authorities said. (ED. They sell drugs to get the money to buy fake documents.)

When police stumbled across the Pelcastre brothers, the men had turned a Tonnelle Avenue hotel room into a business office and were readying a massive cache of fake Social Security cards for delivery to a local identity broker, authorities said.

The brothers, Angel, 31, and Jorge, 34, both of Dallas, were a "one-stop shop" for a myriad of government documents, including birth certificates, Social Security cards, driver's licenses for any state in the country including passports and resident alien cards, said state police Capt. Al Della Fave.

"Can you imagine if a terrorist were able to get their hands on this stuff?" Della Fave said. "They'd have free passage throughout the country." Note that Mexico is the global staging area for entry across US borders.

A task force including state troopers and officers from both the Bergen and Hudson county prosecutors' offices happened upon two cars bearing Texas plates in the parking lot of the hotel. Authorities wouldn't identify the hotel by name for fear it could hinder cooperation from other hotels in future investigations or spark retribution.

The Corporate Outreach Task Force, formerly the Hotel Motel Drug Interdiction Task Force, regularly runs checks on motor vehicles in area motels. Members of the task force began watching the cars, a Chevrolet Impala and a Pontiac Firebird, and followed the brothers to an office supply store in a nearby shopping center, where the men purchased computer supplies, said state police Sgt. Stephen Jones.

Officers then followed the brothers to a self-storage facility in Secaucus, where they loaded several boxes from a storage unit into one of the cars, Jones said. One of the men stood lookout, which heightened police suspicion, he said. Authorities approached the men when they returned to the hotel and questioned them separately, Jones said. The brothers consented to a search of their cars, hotel room and the storage facility, he said.

Police recovered laminating sheets with built-in security features, pages of blank documents waiting for fake names and information, finished documents, computers and software to create the fake IDs, Jones said.

All told, the haul was worth about $500,000 on the street, Della Fave said. Police also recovered $6,000 in cash, which was the first payment from a fake document broker for a shipment of 500 Social Security cards, Della Fave said.

"They were aggressively selling to brokers," he said. "This isn't like selling driver's licenses to individuals. These were multiple layers of high-level documents."

The brothers were being held in jail without bail on charges of possessing fraudulent documents and conspiracy to sell fraudulent documents. Federal charges are also pending against them, said state police Detective Sgt. Cesar Huaman, a member of the task force.

==========================================

CIRCA 2000---Javier Inclan, was (a) the Hudson County Clerk, (b) bagman for the New Jersey Democratic Party machine, and went straight to the top---(3) appointed then- NJ governor Corzine's Deputy COS.

As County Clerk Inclan was manufacturing identities for illegals---stealing the info from legit Americans.

In August 2004, the US Department of State stopped accepting passport applications processed by Inclan's office. Birth certificates issued by Hudson County as proof of citizenship were also not being accepted. Due to an ongoing investigation by the State Department and the U.S. Department of Justice into the alleged sale of such documents.

In early August, Richard Boucher, a spokesperson for the State Department was quoted by Associated Press: "The investigation has developed facts indicating that we cannot rely on the accuracy of information on passport applications that were processed by the county clerk's office."

HERE'S HOW HE OPERATED Javier Inclan was carrying envelopes of cash from human trafficer Luisa Medrano to the Mayor who was convicted of corruption. Medrano testified at his trial that at one time she owned 13 residential and commercial properties in Union City, West New York, Guttenberg, Fairfield and Cliffside Park----one property was worth $1 million. Medrano also controlled six liquor licenses (it's illegal to have more than two in New Jersey). Medrano does not even speak English. Clearly, this mamasita's got more than revenue from tequila shots going into her bank account.

===========================================

This is happening all over. We need to make a HUGE ruckus about it. Latinos are infiltrating our govt agencies (they have crept into the the CIA and FBI, as well) for the purpose of rigging the system to help out their countrymen.
