Maybe Jim DeMint’s resignation wasn’t such a big loss after all
Coach Is Right ^ | 5/13/2013 | Kevin Collins

Posted on 05/13/2013 6:26:13 AM PDT by IbJensen

When South Carolina’s Republican Senator Jim DeMint resigned to head the Heritage Foundation most “outside the Beltway” conservatives were at first apprehensive about the net effect it would cause. The thinking on DeMint’s move slowly evolved to “Jim can do things outside of the system he can’t do/say while in the Senate.” It sounded reasonable – after all this was Jim DeMint.

Since he took over Heritage DeMint has been an irritant to the Gang of Eight as they fight to destroy America by erasing our borders, but time has shown that alas he is not the “all in” warrior for our safety we assumed he would be. The abrupt “resignation” of Jason Richwine, a Harvard trained PhD, from his position as a Heritage Foundation analyst/writer tells us a different story about DeMint.

Richwine HAD to be banished from Heritage for committing the heretical outrage of telling the truth about the destructive effect mass waves of Hispanic immigration have had on America’s economy. Worse still Richwine took the “head on” position that the damage has been caused because of the lower IQ of these immigrants.

Richwine exposed Teddy Kennedy’s lies about the probable results of his Immigration Reform legislation. We know now that it was a clever gambit to replace the Democrat votes being lost in the South. Today we have veritable conga line of new low IQ immigrants eager to reward the Democrat Party for holding the door open for them.

The whines and howls that followed from the Left were of course to be expected. It is simply “not allowed” to point out differences in IQ among various races and ethnic groups unless you are saying a minority group (usually Asian) has a slightly higher IQ than any other.

Nevertheless, other unexpected voices have joined in the attacks on Richwine – those who should be defending him and using the data he presented demonstrate the lower IQ immigrant costs us $6.3 TRILLION.

After the first squeal from the Left about Jason Richwine’s R-a-c-i-s-m, within three days Jim DeMint folded and begged for mercy. Heritage denounced its own White Paper on IQ and race by bleating its findings, “… in no way reflect the positions of The Heritage Foundation.” How we wish they did.

Jim DeMint agreed with the Left that it is better to never mention what wave immigration has done to America because it makes for uncomfortable evenings at DC cocktail parties.

Maybe we are better off with DeMint out of the Senate.

Jim DeMint is also a good friend of Harry Reid. We know that because he told us so himself.

Re: “The fools who chant the mantra: Our strength is in our diversity.”

Don't leave out the fools who claim: “We are a nation immigrants.”

Really?

85% of American citizens were born in the USA.

And that's after 20 YEARS of the highest immigration rate in world history!

If we look back as recently as the 1960’s, almost 95% of American citizens were born in the USA.

I mean, what country on planet Earth is NOT a “nation of immigrants?”

The Democrats strategy in outnumbering Conservatives is like that of the English King Edward "Longshanks" towards the Scottish rebels in the movie "Braveheart" on instituting the right of Prima Nocte

Longshanks: "If we can't get them out, we'll breed them out".


And the GOP, ever the Stupid Party, is playing along...

Re: “The case could have been made without referring to IQ.”

That's exactly what happened, isn't it?

As far as I know - all the IQ statements reported by the MSM come from Richwine’s 2009 Ph.D dissertation at Harvard, which was read and approved by three tenured Harvard faculty members.

They do NOT come from the Heritage immigration study.

If I am mistaken - please - someone correct me.

Right now his only friend is his dentist who removes the hair between his teeth.

Japan?

No - you misunderstand me.

Every human being who ever lived in Japan can trace his ancestral roots to east Africa.

Unless you are making a religious argument, which I am not.

Au contraire, mon ami.

(A little French lingo there to demonstrate my admiration for the little froggies.)

The Japanese people gradually emigrated from the Korean peninsula and other locations in eastern China thousands of years ago.

By today’s standards they are indeed a homogeneous people as opposed to our very young nation which is an amalgamation of every race and tribe known to man.

Britain isn’t much better off having opened the floodgates decades ago.

Don't be so sure. It is just a matter of timing. Most Japanese moved to their relatively young (in geological terms) island from the China and Korean mainland or from the Ryuku Islands and south (including Taiwan) with lesser numbers from Siberia (the Ainu) and the Kurile Islands to the north.

They are not as pure of a race as they'd have you believe.

Re: “Fire in the belly.”

Important to remember that almost 30% of South Carolina voters are Black.

That means a “Pure Conservative” candidate must get close to 75% of the white vote to win.

That is a very high standard.

Prior to 1970 Germany was populated mainly by native Germans and other assorted Europeans.

Today a stroll through the English Gardens in Munich causes one’s eyebrows to rise. Culture there has been shocked back to the stone age.

Jim DeMint made a brilliant choice. He left a seat of power for a seat of power and money and powerful megaphones.

He has a conservative message. In the Senate, it didn’t get adequately delivered. At Heritage he controls a mighty voice of truth, has the equipment to deliver, and the money with which to do it .

Relatively speaking, quite correct. When I lived in Japan a decade or so ago, 99% of the population was Japanese. I don't think the concentration has changed all that much since because the basic premise of their immigration policy is to import only foreigners who will be economically useful to the country as a whole and only to do jobs which they can do better than the native population.

This is not enforced by quotas, but by requiring that said foreign workers be paid at least a 10% premium over the prevailing wage for the same work. It has an amazingly effective result in ensuring a high quality imported workforce.

Yes, there are abuses. The yakuza, for instance, imports foreign "entertainers" who essentially work as prostitutes, pays them the wage premium, and then gets it back through charging them for living expenses and the like. But the numbers of these abuses nationwide are less than what you would find in any major American city.

Re: “The Japanese people gradually emigrated from the Korean peninsula and other locations in eastern China thousands of years ago.”

I agree.

But the Koreans and eastern Chinese emigrated from east Africa roughly 50,000 years ago.

Unless you are making a Creationist argument, every human being on the planet can trace his roots to east Africa.

Unless you are making a Creationist argument, there were no human beings in ANY country 200,000 years ago.

Thus, depending on your time frame, and depending on your religious principles, all citizens of all countries are offspring of immigrants.

” The Dems at MSNBC have been celebrating the end of conservative opposition to amnesty with this Heritage firing, because now they can claim the whole study of amnesty costs is tainted. “

Nice......never stand up for anything whatsoever.

True enough, and for me that makes it all the more disturbing.
