Rewarding Illegal Aliens and Terrorists

[Tailgunner Joe]

It is all too obvious that the war on terror is ongoing, and that we are at risk every day of the year. Every day has the possibility of having its name and number changed forever from just another day into a Day of Infamy. I've now seen 41 September 11s, 39 of which were relatively uneventful.

I'm shocked to have to report, however, that despite what we've learned there are still politicians who are more concerned about their own skin than the safety of American citizens and our nation.

As you know, California is in the process of throwing a bum out of office. As a native Los Angeleno, I bristle when East Coast intelligentsia dismiss our state as "eccentric." Dismissing what happens in California is a serious mistake. Consider what Lame Duck Gray Davis has done. Just a few days ago, Davis signed into law a bill that allows illegal aliens to easily get California driver's licenses.

In this age of terrorism and mass carnage done in the name of religion, Davis, in an obscene effort to save his own skin, panders to a voter bloc by making it easier than pie for terrorists and other criminals to legally obtain our version of a domestic passport.

Courtesy of Davis, all you have to do to get a California driver's license is have a Taxpayer ID Number (not a Social Security number) and some other form of ID. You can get that Taxpayer ID number over the Internet from the IRS. The IRS acknowledges it does not check for citizenship or criminal background, nor does it check to see if you are who you say you are. (See California Driver's License Bill Opens Door to Voter Fraud and Illegal Gun Sales.)

The second ID can be anything, a birth certificate, passport from your native country, or any other ID that looks official. In Los Angeles there's a park called MacArthur, where for $90 you can buy a Mexican birth certificate or any other card or certificate that strikes your fancy.

Or, of course, if you're an Osama bin Ladentron, all you have to do is go into a DMV office, provide that silly Taxpayer ID number and your Saudi passport, and voila, you get an official and legal California driver's license. You'd probably want a truck license (which you can also get), with which you can drive your bomb-laden truck seven hours to Las Vegas in your terror quest to nail the Bellagio Hotel. Thanks, Gray Davis!

The driver's license is all you need to buy a firearm in this country. It is the ID used to get on an airplane. Forget using that pesky Saudi passport – that would get you looked at funny and searched. But none of that with your new, lovely California driver's license! It is also your Free Pass to and from Canada, Mexico and the United States. It allows you to enroll in flight school. It provides a presumption of citizenship and legality.

It is also the ID number required to register to vote. Of course, they also want you to declare that you're a citizen on that form, but heck, we're already talking about criminals, people who are here illegally, whether they're terrorists or not, so lying about that little fact won't be an issue.

In his speech while signing this monumental threat to homeland security, Davis actually said this will help all those illegal aliens (oh, he called them "immigrants") who need to drive their parents to the hospital. And who's paying that bill? Gee, let me think ...

But it's not just Mexicans who have broken the law to be in this country, insulting Mexican immigrants who immigrated legally to become Americans. No, this bill doesn't say that you have to prove you're a Mexican here illegally with sick parents.

You can also be a man with multiple arrests for the driving under the influence and have a suspended license. That man can now go get a new license under a new name so he can drink himself into oblivion and get back on the road to kill more innocent people.

It can also be that man who has been arrested for brutally beating up his wife and threatening to shoot her. His guns were confiscated and his license taken away so he can't buy more firearms. That man, too, can now get a license under an assumed name (easy as pie!), go buy a few guns and finally murder that woman who thought she was safe.

Davis knows this. In fact, he vetoed the same bill last year, one that actually had some safety features in it, saying that it was too dangerous in this age of terrorism. And yet the bill he just signed was stripped of all security elements, but he did it anyway because he's willing to do anything to hold onto his job for another three miserable years, including putting untold millions of Americans at risk of life and liberty.

So, the next time you laugh at the recall of Gray Davis, or characterize Californians as nutty, reflect on the fact that it is the people of California who realized they had a miscreant on their hands who poses an actual danger not just to Californians but also to everyone else in this nation.

In true California populist style, a movement has begun for an initiative to stop licenses for illegals and terrorists (http://www.saveourlicense.com). And fortunately, Arnold Schwarzenegger, the man I'm voting for, declared in his exclusive interview with Bill O'Reilly on the Fox News Channel that he will rescind this freakish law if he's elected. That's good news.

But one must ask, where's Tom Ridge and the Homeland Security office? The silence from that department on this issue has been shocking. And George W. Bush has had multiple opportunities to condemn this act and he, too, has said nothing.

Both Gray Davis and George W. Bush will find that while they take certain voting blocs for granted, California is sending a message to the rest of the nation that we're mad as hell and we're not going to take it anymore.

They should do the numbers and realize that it's not Mexicans who are here illegally who will keep them in office, or kick them out. It's "the rest of us," we pesky American citizens who, while we may shy away from noisy rallies and demonstrations, do march to the voting booth. Just watch what happens on Oct. 7 in California.

Simply put, Gray Davis and every other pandering politician (like Howard "That Empty Space Between My Ears Is Filled With Hate for George W." Dean) who has condemned the direct democracy of the recall as "not democratic" should be thanking their lucky stars this is not France in 1789.

Whom did you blame for the "current mess" prior to Clinton?

Will Of The People Be Damned

Once again, the Federal Government has attempted to undermined the will of the people of California.

Like Proposition 187, after we won our free election overwhelmingly, the Federal Government stepped in and burn our ballots and declare our free election illegal.

Federal government officials, in concert with corrupt state officials conspired to turn back the clock and told the majority of Californian's that their free election did not matter a wit.

The governments message was, don't bother voting, the majority does not matter, get back to work.

Proposition 187 would have stopped the tax paid support of illegal aliens. The people of California demanded relief from this epic invasion of illegal aliens, and voted and won this historic election. The people of California spoke loud and clear.

The Federal Government had a different agenda. Since the historic Proposition 187 election, things have changed.

States like North Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Ohio, Illinois, Florida, Georgia, Oregon, Colorado, etc have been flooded with hundreds of thousands of illegals. The invasion is no longer isolated to Cal, Texas, and Arizona.

The governments agenda is clear, and seems to be working quite well.

So-called state leaders have been pandering to these illegal ever since Proposition 187 was destroyed by the government. States have gone so far as to grant illegals aliens reduced college tuition fees, attempted to grant them drivers licenses, along with all the other benefits that were met for legal citizens. This is all happening far beyond the borders of California. As President Bush and the Director of Home Land Security stand in silence, winking and nodding at this epic invasion and attack on our sovereignty. This is not only a national disgrace, it's a total national security nightmare, not to mention, it's choking off our system and creating nationwide fraud..

Nothing to add, Tammy Bruce nails it.

[Joe Hadenuf]

This isn't just a California matter.

Some of our fellow American's are a little slow, and haven't quite figured this out yet.

[Joe Hadenuf]

George W. Bush has had multiple opportunities to condemn this act and he, too, has said nothing.

Not a freaking word out of Bush.

[SandRat]

Now that we have your attention on this, start to work to make sure that after the ‘04 elections not a single DummieWit running for office or re-election to office wins. Then with a solid super majority in both Houses of Congress, keeping the White House by a landslide and cleaning out State Office holders we can start turning this country back on the Straight and Narrow path.

[Joe Hadenuf]

Even here in Missouri where the illegal problem isn't as bad as California or Arizona, people are starting to take notice.

You aint seen nothing yet.....

[Missouri]

The only good that can come from that scenario would be if he draws enough grassroots support to make the established Republican Party leaders realize there is discontent among the base.

This is probably the most realistic and practical scenario we can hope for.

Another thing we can do is elect more like-minded people to office at the state level and to the House of Reps. We can't do much about Bush or the Senate. I'm working on a letter to my republican state senator promoting the idea of making Missouri the most "un-friendly to illegal aliens" state in the union. Maybe it this will catch on.

>>>"Even here in Missouri where the illegal problem isn't as bad as California or Arizona, people are starting to take notice."<<<


Ditto here in NC. But, just in case, I make SURE people take notice.

In stores when I use my card and have to choose between English and Spanish on the little computer thingy, I say in a loud and clear voice: "Why do I have to choose between English and Spanish in America??" Lively debate usually follows with most people agreeing with me.

[viaveritasvita]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Pres. Reagan grant amnesty to illegals in the mid-80's??

[Missouri]

We're fed up and won't vote for him again

What it came down to in 2000 for me was I wasn't voting for Bush, I was voting against Gore.

Just wait till the Fall of 2004 and we see the rats in action.

[Missouri]

Now that we have your attention on this

You've had my attention on this subject for some time now.

I believe if my neighbors house is on fire that it makes sense to help them just to kept the fire from spreading to my house. So, here in my state, I try to impress our politicians to support efforts to stop illegal immigration and reduce legal immigration.

[Missouri]

You aint seen nothing yet.

Thanks alot Joe. Is Missouri part of Aztecland?

[Missouri]

Ditto here in NC.

From what I hear, NC has it pretty bad with the illegals. I'd hate to see your state going over to the leftist democrats.

[Missouri]

Ditto here in NC. But, just in case, I make SURE people take notice.

STEIN REPORT XXXXX Monday, September 15 2003 09:10:56 ET XXXXX NEARLY 80 PERCENT OF NORTH CAROLINIANS WANT IMMIGRATION REDUCED An August 2003 Carolinas Poll found that the vast majority of North Carolina respondents think that immigration should be curtailed because it's too easy to immigrate to the United States, and 61 percent of the poll's 908 respondents said U.S. immigration laws are ineffective. The Charlotte Observer reports that follow-up interviews indicate that most respondents said the weak economy -- not terrorism -- is the main reason they want immigration laws toughened.

You are not alone in North Carolina.

[Joe Hadenuf]

Thanks alot Joe. Is Missouri part of Aztecland?

LOL! It's all fair game. Welcome to Meximerica.....

[Missouri]

Welcome to Meximerica.....

Eye Corumba !!

>>>"From what I hear, NC has it pretty bad with the illegals. I'd hate to see your state going over to the leftist democrats."<<<


I think it depends on your perspective. I lived in Kalifornicate for about 17 years before moving here right after 9/11. The comparison w/KA is almost a joke -- it's heaven here compared to that place!

HOWEVER, I do see it coming, and I understand that illegals (through the underground grapeview) think NC is the next spot ripe for the picking. Sadly, I doubt anything can be done ultimately to stop this invasion. But, we sure as he** can man the fort and put out the alert! Maybe we can hold the invasion at bay for a lot of years (I know lots of FReepers think I'm dreaming, but it's worth a try!!).

[viaveritasvita]

>>>"...follow-up interviews indicate that most respondents said the weak economy -- not terrorism -- is the main reason they want immigration laws toughened."<<<


Certainly the economy plays a big part -- we don't want "them" taking our jobs nor do we want to pay their way (not all, but enuf to be concerned), but I'm willing to bet that those being interviewed were trying to be PC 'cuz there's plenty of polite discussion here about the legal and illegal invasion. The clip you posted makes me feel great!! A lot of us are doing whatever we can to keep this beautiful state out of leftie 'RAT hands, but it's an uphill battle especially with the loss of some of the older, conservative pols.


>>>"You are not alone in North Carolina."<<<


And it's a joy, I tell ya!! I can speak my mind about these issues without the KA leftie look that implies your views are racist, bigoted, stingy, and mean. Thank God.
