Good article from CIS today with a list of the big amnesty pushers/donations.

Cooking the Books on Immigration Lobbying

[snip]It would require an extensive effort to tally the expenditures on immigration. But it is safe to say that since 1998, tens of millions of dollars have been spent on immigration lobbying. And it is clear that the vast majority of those dollars have been spent by those who want expansive immigration policies.

*****************Here are just a few of the big spenders: The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Microsoft Corp, Western Growers Association,American Farm Bureau, American Meat Institute, National Immigration Forum, National Association of Home Builders, National Association of Manufacturers, National Chicken Council, Service Employees International Union, National Council of La Raza, United Farm Workers, Tides Advocacy Fund, Oracle Corp, Dairy Farmers of America, American Hotel & Lodging Assn., Smithfield Foods, American Nursery & Landscape Assn.

IMHO, one of the moral justifications of the death penalty is that it actually PROTECTS life, by giving criminals a reason to “sing” and give up their partners in crime!

Holder does not understand this point, or Holder DOES understand, and does not want to punish the other criminals!

The day may come that heavy facial tattoos are an automatic death sentence.

Our survival as a civilized society will depend on it.

Simple explanation. It was not anyone this asswipe knew that was murdered, so he has no problem removing the death penalty

Holder stepped in and ruled out the death penalty. He refuses to explain the last-minute order claiming that that the attorney general’s decision-making process and final decision involving the death penalty is confidential.

He and Obama really do hate this country.

Holder probably believes that the few militia kooks arrested last week in Michigan are much more dangerous than MS 13 gang bangers.

The suspects, Eris Arguera, Alcides Umana and Adolfo Amaya Portillo, admitted to being members of the MS-13 gang, court documents show.

the Obama White House announced the nomination of Mari Del Carmen Aponte as U.S. Ambassador to El Salvador. It is not Ms. Aponte’s first brush with an ambassadorship. In 1998, President Clinton nominated her to be Ambassador to the Dominican Republic. She was forced to withdraw her name from consideration over allegations of ties to the Cuban spy agency.

From Washington Times, January 25, 1999:

July 15, 2009

Three El Salvadoran youths face imminent deportation from Minnesota in spite of gang-related death threats in their home country. Attorneys for the youth filed an emergency appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court Tuesday to temporarily block deportation and keep them safe while they pursue an asylum appeal.

The 8th Circuit Court of Appeals and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) both rejected requests to temporarily block deportation, said Ben Casper, a pro bono attorney working on the asylum case. Attorneys have written appeals to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder and Department of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano, asking them to intervene directly, in part because the case will set a significant precedent for other asylum cases.

Just a few of the "undocumented American" yutes trying to peacefully assimilate into our culture. They would succeed if it weren't for racist right-wing extremists.

In the minds of the commie-left, vicious street gangs will play an important role in the "revolution" if one is eventually needed to complete the destruction of the American capitalist system. The Revolutionary Communist Party instigated the Rodney King/LA Riots where 58 people were killed. Congresswoman Maxine Waters described the bloody riots as an "acceptable rebellion". She is one of several democrats who are listed as "endorsers" of the World Can't Wait movement. WCW is a front for the Revolutionary Communist Party. MS-13 has links to communist regimes in Latin America.

From the website, GangsOrUs.com:

"The story of Mara Salvatrucha 13 [MS13) is inevitably also the story of El Salvador and the results of its twelve-year civil war. From 1980 until 1992, the fighting between the Salvadoran government and the communist rebels claimed over 75,000 lives and sent more than one million refugees and immigrants to the United States and to its neighbors throughout Central America."

[snip]

"It is worth noting that following the end of the 12-year Salvadoran civil war, the insurgent FMLN – a Cuban-orchestrated cohesion of five Communist groups, which was in turn supplied with arms from Cuba, China and the Soviet Union – disarmed and became a political party. While the opposition Alianza Republicana Nacional (ARENA) [National Republican Alliance] party has held the presidency since 1989, there are elections scheduled for March 21. FMLN leader Shafik Handal will stand as a candidate. The 72 year-old is the former head of the Salvadoran Communist Party. He has spoken openly about turning El Salvador into a Socialist state, and recently sent Fidel Castro a letter in support of the jailing of 75 peaceful oppositionists in Cuba. His party is an essential part of the MS13 network that continues to send rifles and assorted munitions to the Salvatruchas of Los Angeles and elsewhere in the United States."

Well guess what ???

Maryland currently has a put a halt on all executions . I can't remember the last time the death penalty was sought in a murder trial in Maryland . Minority jurors will not convict on a death sentence .

The irony of the parallels does not escape me when you compare the methods used by the Obama Administration to ram socialized medicine down our throats to the methods used by MS13 when they...say...knock over a liquor store

Hey, jla, the title of this thread says nothing about these gangbangers being Hispanic. But it turns out they are. I wouldn’t know that unless I visited the thread to see if it fits my ping list. I guess that also makes me racist, doesn’t it...?

Have I gotten my point through to you yet?
