Instead of George Lopez

I've listened to the commercials.  I've thought about what he says and I know that if I said what George Lopez is saying in the 
commercial, I would be tarred and feathered and run out of town on a rail.
He tells Latinos that it is time for them to take over this country and in order to do this, they must vote.  Consider...If a white
comedian stood up in a commercial and said this, what would happen.  First of all, the MSM would be incensed.  The TV Channels,
the newspapers, etc would be on an out and out witchhunt.  There would be figurative blood everywhere.
Since when has it become time for "them" to take over this country?  What have Latinos, in particular, ever done, as a group for this
country that gives them this particular right?  I thought this country was a melting pot and that no one group has any more right to
this country than another.  I resent the commercial.  I resent the inference that this is somehow more Mexicans country than anyone
elses.  Yes, I do know that they are claiming that "we" Europeans came and stole (never mind the blood and money that paid for
land) the land from "peaceful" Mexican Indians.  Do we want to discuss the fact the Spain is still and always has been in Europe?
Do we want to discuss that not every Mexican is part Mayan, Toltec, Aztec, etc?  (About here, I can also ask if we want to go into
the Mexicans trying to rewrite history to make these Indians peaceful instead of consummately bloodthirsty.)
At some point, the citizens of the United States are going to have to stand up, enmasse and do something about the atmosphere that
has developed in this country.
I do realize that the liberals that live in lala land feel guilty for all that they have and want to share with everyone else regardless of
the costs.  They also hate our country ( but you notice they don't leave) and want to bring it down and what better way than this?
We are not going to get a good strong hard liner like Tancredo or Hunter as President this time out.  All that we can hope for is to
stay on top of DC trying to sneak through their different amnesty bills and stop them as we have in the past.
Perhaps, by this time next year, it will no longer be pc for an Hispanic to stand up on tv and say what George Lopez said.

Texans Lend a Hand

I am so proud of my fellow Texans this afternoon.  There was a major grass fire burning outside of Benbrook, TX
and there were so many motorists that stopped, gathered whatever they had in their vehicles, and ran to help put
out the fire.  There they were, beating at the fire with blankets, coats, etc alongside the highway.  Eventually the
fire departments from Benbrook and Cresson arrived and the fires were extinguished, but not before burning an
enormous swath through the area.  Residents were told to evacuate but several chose to stay to try to protect their
property.  All around the metroplex there were power outages and damage from the high winds and dry grassland.
Governor Rick Perry had two helicopters standing by in Grand Prairie to try to drop water on fires but they were
hampered by the high, high winds.
My husband did remark when we saw the pictures on the news that you would not see people ( up North ) stopping
to help put out a fire.  I hope he is wrong.

Texan of the Year, NOT!

Well, just when I think that the media cannot truly be as stupid as they seem, I am once again proven wrong.  The
Dallas Morning News has named the collative illegal immigrants in this state as their Texan of the Year.  Would I
actually be arrested if I went up beside the head of the nitwit that thought this obscenity up?
This is a slap in the face of all of the legal Texans in the United States.  These doofuses think they are deep thinkers
but I can tell you what is deep in their offices and brains.
They also will try to tell you that they are attempting to open an intellectual debate in this state or country about the
plight of and fact of illegal immigration.  Hooey!  All they are, as are so many "intellectuals" in this country are
pretenders that are in love with the sound of their own voices and the products of their brains, whether or not the
product of said brains are worth exposing to the rest of us.
Illegal aliens are not worth what they cost us or our country.  There were people, prior to the advent of the over the
top liberal thinking that is popular today, who would actually do the jobs that now the powers that be intone
pompously they will not do.  I remember the migrant workers that my father hired to work on the produce farms and
in the packing sheds.  I remember itinerate workers that housewives in our neighborhood hired to do home repairs.
I remember seeing legal white, legal black, legal hispanic  and legal American Indians working on new homes or
reroofing existing homes in our neighborhood.  Here, I see a lot of teenagers working on roofs in our area in the
summertime.  These are not jobs Americans won't stoop to do.  These are jobs employers don't want to pay more
than a starvation wage  for people to do, so they hire illegals.
I am not against legal immigration.  This country is a shining example of what can be accomplished with legal
immigration. What happens with unfettered illegal immigration, besides the obvious financial drain, is that we, the
citizens of this country are actually being told by the actions of the politicians we vote for, the people that claim to
speak for illegals and by the people that employ them, to sit down and shut up because We Do Not Count!  We are
so fortunate to be born here or to be a naturalized citizen that we are being ugly to these less fortunates and that
when we want our laws obeyed we are racists or bigots.  Not true.  We have laws in this country and we are being
told that while we must obey laws, there are laws on the books that are so meaningless that we must never ask
illegals to obey them.  However, we now have to have passports to get Back Into our own country if we travel outside
this country.  Doesn't the Border Hopping Is Okay law apply to us as well? No.
I have always expected Dallas to screw up a free lunch and they never prove me wrong.  However, I never expected
them to be so ignorant in that city that the powers that be at the DMN would actually think they could rub the noses
of Texas citizens in this illegal alien mess and walk away scot free.  This probably won't be as big a deal in Dallas
as it will be in some of the other areas in Texas, mine included, but I am certain that there will be repercussions.
Oh, those at DMN will never admit to making a colossal screwup.  They'll spout all sorts of liberal hogwash and
try to sound intellectual. but they are no better than the coyotes that bring these people to this country because by
doing what they are doing, they are encouraging this action.
On Michelle Malkins site there is discussion of this topic and one of the things mentioned was the rape trees down
on the border.  That is one product of blindly ignoring the wholesale border hopping that is going on down there.
Then there is the fact that property is being ruined and livestock is being killed, not to mention people.  I hear of
lala land liberals standing out in the desert with water, etc for these people as they come across. Yea.  I also know
that drug lords use these people as forced mules to carry drugs into this country.  I do know the Mexican army and
police also come across our border illegally whenever they want.  Mexico has their army on their southern border
to keep illegals out of their country but when we mention doing this we are being heartless and racist.  I also know
that we are going to be in trouble politically if the wrong person gets into the White House in 2008 because so many of the candidates are for open borders.  I have to admit that I supported Tancredo and Hunter and now just
Hunter.  None of the other candidates seem to have grasped the fact that illegal immigration is a huge topic with
voters in this upcoming election.
Certainly the DMN hasn't.  They are still spouting that garbage about if we're just nice to illegals and let them stay
here it will raise our own opinions of ourselves.  It will prove to liberals and the world that the United States isn't
the bad old country that deserved 9/11
Frankly I'm tired of that whole argument and equate it with so much offal from the southern end of a north bound
bull.
These people do not intend to assimilate.  They do not want to be Americans.  They want to be Mexican citizens
living in and enjoying everything they can get from the United States.  In other words, we the taxpayers of our 
country are not only being taxed to support our government, our people on welfare, our people on social security,
our people on medicaid, etc. but now we are being taxed to support people that should not be here in the first 
place and think they have found El Dorado.
Dallas Morning News Texan of the Year?  I think not.
Until next time

I Thought "They" Were Doing The Jobs....

Okay. Here I sit, thinking that all of these illegals in this country are doing the jobs that Americans won't do and now I
hear that we need a million more to come in or crops will not be harvested. Just where are the ones that harvested
the crops last year and what jobs are they doing now?
Usually some of them go home to Mexico between seasons, but did not do so this year because of the fires in 
California. Okay..they are here so why can't they work in the fields, or are they related to the ones that are
striking in TX for bonuses that have not been paid..and how can illegals strike? Don't you have to belong to a union
in order to strike?
Then there is the matter of illegals voting in Texas because until recently they were allowed to have drivers licenses.
I guess that got cut off when the TX pols sensed the way the wind was blowing. Just wish they would cue in the
governor because Perry seems absolutely clueless.
These are three questions I would love to get answers to along with about a dozen others but I know that since
politicians speak a completely different language than you or I, I probably would not be able to understand it. Why
can't we get a yes or no answer on the subject? Why do they have to whine, waffle, flipfop and just generally act as
if we are too dumb to comprehend the "greater scheme of things?"
Frankly, I am tired of being lied to about the border and border security. I am tired of cities declaring themselves as
sanctuary cities and still being allowed to receive federal monies. I am tired of hearing that it is racial profiling to go
to predominately Mexican neighborhoods to look for illegals. I am tired of hearing that it is racial profiling to search
Arab and Arab looking males before they get on airplanes. I am tired of anchor babies. I am tired of our schools 
being stretched to the limit by these children that cannot speak English when they enter school and by their parents
that WII NOT learn English because Mexicans along the lines of Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton tell them they do 
not have to learn English..that we have to learn Spanish to accommodate them. I am tired of the fact that if an 
American citizen has to go into the hospital, he/she stays on an average of three days. An illegal gets in there, it's
usually for a minimum of three (taxpayer paid) weeks!  I am tired of having to hire a Spanish, Vietnamese (every
dialect) etc speaker to work elections. If you have (legally) reached the point where you can vote, shouldn't you be
able to speak enough English to get through the ballot? There are at least a dozen more gripes that I could list but
with the exception of, I am tired of hearing so much Spanish when I do go out to shop that it feels like I have taken a
trip to Mexico, I won't list them.
We have at least double the amount of illegal aliens in this country, of every color and ethnicity than the MSM or
politicians will admit to and I don't see the influx stopping anytime soon with the liberals and the misguided GOP
talking amnesty.
But, back to my original question. What happened to all of the illegals that harvested the crops last year? You and
I know they did not go back home so what are they doing in this country? Ten to one, at least the Mothers with
anchor babies are on welfare. How does that grab you?

What Is Going On?

Well, California is burning. According to Jim Avila on ABC News, the hardest hit are the million to millions of illegal
aliens living and working in California. (Sob) They not only have the fire and loss of homes to fear, but also La
Migra (the Feds) because they could be deported. Never does he mention the illegals that were stealing relief
supplies, never does he mention the illegal Guatemalan that was arrested after he was observed lighting a fire,
never does he mention the illegals that have been caught looting evacuated houses and I'll also bet that in the
past two weeks he hasn't mentioned the Mexican gangs that are killing innocent African Americans in their drive to
eradicate African American gang members in order to run LA themselves.
We have to do something about this especially when Scary Pelosi and Dingy Harry Reid and their minions are 
pushing the Dream Act and SChip down our throats. They are throwing Roberts Rules of Order out of the window
and doing things their way. You ain't at Burger King Nancy and Harry.
Did you know the Schip program would allow people up to 25 years old on it? Did you know that illegals can 
enrol their children in it?Did you know the cut off income level is $83,000.00 per year. Did you know that there are
already illegals children in the program and some 70,000 citizens children that cannot be enrolled because of the
catches in wording? Did you know there are already adults up to 25 years old in the program? The Dems are using
President Bush's veto of this new version against him and anyone that voted against it is being demonized. I
would have been very unhappy with the President and a lot of other people in DC had they voted for this bill. I am
unhappy with a lot of people that are supporting the Dream Act and trying to ram it through regardless of what the
voters are saying.
Now, I am reading that the new governor of Louisana is a traitor to his color. I have heard Dems and the Far Left
Dems screaming racist and racial profiler at people for the last decades and now I am hearing Dems screaming
at an Indian American whose parents came here from India for a better life a "person of no color" because he 
doesn't stand up and scream at white Americans because he is a person with a darker complexion. I thought that
America has always been a melting pot.
It is the MSM. Pure and simple. We are supposed to love the people they champion and hate the people they hate.
We are supposed to love illegals who are breaking at least one law being here and God help us if the Police and/or
the Feds go to areas where these illegals would be most likely to live to look for illegals...this is racial profiling. 
However, instead of celebrating a young man who is a first generation American's success in life, they are being
supremely ugly and all but calling him an Uncle Tom in print. They are also ridiculing the fact that he is using
Bobby as a first name instead of his Indian name. Maybe this is all because he appears to have more sense than
ex Gov Blanco.
If you want to read a really good piece on pc nonsense go to familysecuritymatters.com and click on 
Political Correctness and Common Sense are Strangers by Gabriel Garnica. 
Everything Mr Garnica writes makes sense, unlike these so called journalists that let their prejudices color 
everything they do and say. The same goes for DC. There ego reigns supreme. Harry Reid has a lower 
approval rating that Charles Manson, yet he continues to operate as if he has a mandate from the American
people to promote his and Pelosi's agenda. Pelosi cannot get the code pinkos off her property in San Fran, and
they back her agenda.
We must take this country back. When you hear that Europeans stole the United States from Mexico, you might
want to remind these brain surgeons that Spain is still located in Europe..at least in my Atlas.
We must keep say legal immigration yes. Illegal immigration no.

What Does Illegal Immigration Really Cost Us?

There was a demonstration in Irving, Tx last weekend. Both sides were there- the pro illegal immigrants and
immigration and the anti Illegal Immigrants and Immigration. Both sides were displaying their signs and at times,
yelling. One young woman yelled, "This was Mexico before and it is Mexico again!"
I don't know why the MSM showed that clip because it certainly didn't help the pros arguments and it didn't show
this woman in a good light because she apparently doesn't know or is ignoring Texas history. Can we say,
Remember the Alamo, Remember the Massacre at Goliad and Remember San Jacinto where Generallismo
Santa Ana was literally caught with his pants down, boys and girls!! Texas was won away from Mexico with blood!
If Mexico thinks that implanting enough of their citizens in this state will let them reclaim Texas again, they are,
once again mistaken about the determination and grit of Texans. Now, I'm not talking about transplanted Texans.
I don't know most of them well enough to say how they will react. I'm talking about the Texans that have been
described as " a band of outlaws loosely aligned with the rest of the United States." These are the Texans that will
take exception, to the point of rising up, when Mexico starts flexing this new found muscle.
Right now everyone is still mouthing off. The more militant American Mexicans are lying to their followers and 
making them think that theirs is a civil rights issue as that of the African Americans in this country in the 1960s.
That is patently untrue. Theirs is a question of legality and the fact that there are cities and even states that are
thumbing their noses at federal law does not make their cause somehow valid.
We are told that this country cannot operate economically without these illegal aliens doing the jobs Americans
won't do. We are told that they are not a burden on the American taxpayers. This is also patently untrue.
Jeff Poor has an article on newsbusters.org titled 'Evening News' Distressed Over Plight of Illegal Immigrants.
This is a truly informative and eye opening article in which he reports on a study by the Heritage Foundation. In
this study a household headed by an individual with a high school education, which includes about two-thirds of
illegal aliens, costs U.S. taxpayers more than $32,000 in federal, state and local benefits. That same family
contributes an average of $9,000 a year in taxes, resulting in a net burden of $22,449 a year.
"Over the next ten years, the constant dollar net cost of low-skill households (immediate benefits received minus
taxes paid) is likely to be at least $3.9 trillion," wrote Robert Rector, author of the study.
We are constantly being told that the country cannot afford to be without these illegals. I have worked with 
numbers for a good portion of my life and that argument just doesn't fly when you start working the numbers. I am
certain that we would pay higher costs for products if our costs were reduced in other ways. Then the numbers
would add up.
Once again, greed seems to be winning. Greed of Mexico for the dollars sent home by illegals and the removal
of dissatisfied underclass from Mexico to our country. Greed of business owners who want to keep their bottom
lines as low as possible and their profits as high as possible. Greed of the people that are manipulating these
people to further their own political ambitions and the greed of the illegal alien for benefits and better living
conditions (at least this greed I can understand.)
What I cannot understand and will never applaud, is the willingness to deliberately thumb their noses at the law
of the land that is being so good to them. I cannot understand the people that push and push for everyone to
deliberately break the law even when they are the very people that were voted into office, usually on a law and
order platform.
However, when I hear, "This was Mexico before and it's Mexico again," all I can think to say to that is, "REMEMBER THE ALAMO!!!!!!!!"

Slippery Slope

Well Folks, here we are...If the so called Christian Right stays home instead of voting or votes for some third party
candidate instead of voting for (Heaven Forbid!!)a Mormon if Mitt Romney gets the nomination, we could have 
Hitlery Clinton or B. Hussein Obama, a Muslim for president of the United States. I will lay the blame exactly where
it belongs if that happens, because I have heard so many Evangelical Christians (one of my sisters included) say
that he or she WILL NOT VOTE FOR A MORMON!!!!!!!! However, that could mean that you will, by omission, vote
for someone who never met a lie she could not tell or a Muslim. How is a Muslim better than a Mormon?
When I was in school and Kennedy, a Catholic, was running against Nixon for president, I heard so many of the
adults saying that a Catholic could never be elected president of our country. However, I never heard a one  of 
them say they would stay home instead of voting for Nixon, and we all know that Nixon won the popular vote.
What we are facing this election is an ultra conservative snit, hissy fit, call it what you will. I don't know if there is a
GOP candidate that fits the ultra conservative mold. I am waiting to see what comes out in the wash of the 
primaries because I'm not too taken with any of the GOP candidates but Heaven Forbid! I cannot vote for any of 
the Dems at all! 
I consider myself an Independent. I vote the candidate instead of the party but when I am presented with the
less than stellar roster both parties are running...well, has anyone got someone waiting around the corner in case
all of the above don't make the cut? I keep expecting to hear that Rev Sharpton is available, now that he has 
gotten in bed with illegal immigration and the Jena 6, to be drafted as the Dems presidential nomination. That 
would just be the icing on the cake!
John Edwards says don't count him out because Dean looked like a shoe-in last time around but I did not think
that was true. I kept saying that he had to get his supporters off of their computers and into the polls and I was
right. If they could have voted on their computers, Dean may have won the election, but they had to physically go
to the polls and that was just too much.
Barak Hussein Obama thinks that he is endearing himself to his voters by declaring that he won't wear an 
American Flag pin on his lapel because his patriotism is so much deeper than that of people who wear flag pins 
and, besides, he wants to "Build the Kingdom" here and now instead of waiting for Heaven. Maybe he doesn't want
to wait for his seventy virgins (or Virginians, if you've heard the joke).
What can I say about Hillary Clinton? I believe the "smartest woman in America" is an unmitigated liar. She has so
many people clipping articles, etc for her and she stood up to the American people and told us she did not know
about Bill's transgression until he himself told her. I believe that since then, the woman has lost touch more and
more with the truth. Also, she scares the bejeepers out of me when she starts talking about healthcare, about
taking ALL of the profits from oil companies, handing out $5000 bonds for all babies born in the US including
anchor babies, and, I keep remembering certain FBI files that turned up on her nightstand when she had been
trying to find dirt on her "enemies."
I know that the Republican candidates have some serious warts, including the fact that the ultra conservatives
have a short list of no abortions, creationism in school, no sex ed in school, etc and that Rudy Guilani is just a 
little shady on these subjects plus he has multiple marriages under his belt.
Fred...what can I say about Fred? He is a Reagan Conservative in a newer package. Even Fred has his warts.
Huckabee is trying to backpedal and distance himself from President Bush. If I was Huckabee, I think I would also
distance myself from Arkansas as in our former President with the double wide library.
Truthfully, I haven't paid too much attention to Ron Paul because I do not think he has a snowballs chance of
winning the nomination. I could be wrong, but I doubt it.
I just know that this election is so very important because if one of the Ultra Liberal Democrat candidates is 
elected this country is going to be unrecognizable to us within ten years or less. We will have open borders, even
more illegals than we now have, higher taxes ( especially to pay for EXPANDED benefits for illegals because
they are already getting paid for by tax payers benefits) (perhaps all of the people that employ illegals to keep
their bottom line looking good could pay for these benefits instead of us) and if you think Spanish is spoken and
written in this country now, and the Mexican flag is flown in this country now, and the Mexican government is
telling us how to run our country now, just wait.
I know that I sometimes sound like a broken record, but with the new estimate of all illegals in this country ( that
includes all ethnicities) being 38 million, we are heading down the same path as Britain, Germany and France.
It really does pay to study other countries history in dealing with unbridled immigration and to see the 
subsequent problems arising from that policy. All three of these countries are being stressed to the point of
breaking because of the very policy that is being pushed onto us now. The Dems and their knee jerk emotional
responses to "does this make me feel good about myself " will never admit that there is a problem...quite the
contrary. Barbara Boxer (d-CA) is at this time trying to stop any and all deportations of illegals because of the
upcoming census in which illegals will be counted along with citizens and she hopes will declare themselves as
Democrats and thus increase their seats. Surprise! Not only is she so altruistic but she's feathering her nest at
the same time! What a gal!
As I have said in the past, we need to vote but we need to vote wisely. We must look beyond the hot air and the
empty promises. People, if it looks and sounds too good to be true, it is. If distortions and lies are being voiced
during the campaigns, they won't get better after the election.

Mexico Is Going To Try To Force Us To Accept Their Citizens

Here it goes. People that are in this country as representatives of Mexico and Americans of Mexican descent or 
naturalized citizens of Mexican descent are going to be working together to force us to accept approximately 
38 million (new figure) illegal immigrants! Mexico City hosted a meeting between all of these people offering 
money and suggestions on how to do this including a Mexican Antidefamation League, "Because we have been
beaten up on long enough." What beating up? They're here illegally yet they have more rights than American
citizens. If we object to them being here we are racists and bigots and interlopers in a land that should rightly
be theirs (I still haven't figured that one out because even if they are Mayan or part Mayan, that's still not here.)
I'm really getting so tired of hearing about their rights, of hearing them prattling in TexMex instead of English, of
hearing about the principal in the Clute, TX school that gave out Mexican flags on Sept 16th and had the 
children pledge allegiance to the Mexican flag. His rationale was that it is the day Mexico declared its 
independence from Mexico and that he thought it was a good thing to do since two thirds of the students are
Mexican. 
I know that it is a federal offense to fly any flag above ours but I have never heard of a Jim Broussard going to the
Texas Mexico border and cutting down the Mexican flag that is flying over ours on our side of the border. This is
happening even on our federal buildings. 
There is also a problem with the border towns stopping the fence from being built along our border and our
governor, Perry ( who is hoping to spring into the White House ala George W. Bush, after serving as governor of
TX) is not pushing the state's right to build the fence and citing state monies that are being funneled into these
cities whose mayors and city councils are acting more like Mexicans than Americans.
Now, we have Mexico tutoring people on how to force the rest of us to accept them as our governing body. I, for
one, didn't vote for anyone from Mexico to be my representative and until they can hold civil elections and quit
acting like spoiled brats when their candidate doesn't win, I don't think they have any right telling us how we 
should run this country and interfering in our obedience of the many laws concerning immigration. Apparently,
they really want to target any groups or persons who are vocal about being anti illegal immigration. Lets face
it, not only are uber liberals wanting to shut people up who speak out against them but now we have the 
Mexican government through its intermediaries that want to shut us up if we disagree with them. 
As I have said before, if they think their citizens are so fantastic, why don't they treat them better at home and 
keep them there. They don't because they want the American dollars that are funneled back into their country 
from ours. They don't have to make improvements in anything and especially in their human rights. They 
complain about our jails when one of theirs is locked up but their jails hark back to the inquisition! These are the
people who feel ( and apparently, our pols agree ) they have a right to tell us how to run our country!
Please, please, look beyond the facade and get to know the candidate that you are going to cast your vote for!

Red Carpet Straight to Hell


Well, I have been listening and reading about the Congress, Hitlery's campaign, MoveOn.org, the RushCrush, the
Nafta Highway, circumventing the Constitution to create a new law ( by Congress ) to make opposing 
Homosexuality a Hate Crime, raising taxes on the middle class ( Congress said rich, but they know how to hide
their assets better than we do ) to pay for Iraq, numerous other issues that are sitting in that area of my mind that
doesn't let them come to the front of my mind, even when they raise their hands and ask nicely to do so, and of
course the "problem" of Illegal Immigration."
I recently had to report for Jury Duty and one of the things that I saw at the Courthouse was, of course, the many,
many people coming in, who spoke only Spanish. It wasn't just that they spoke Spanish to each other, but to the
Bailiffs and other Security Personnel. A woman was talking about the fact that a woman in the elevator with her
kept asking her something in Spanish and she kept telling her that she did not speak Spanish. Obviously, the
woman could not understand her because she kept talking.
Well, just like these two women could not understand each other, the Congress cannot understand their 
constituents. If they could, all of that Crap, above, would not be going on. I do believe that John Edwards is 
correct about one thing. There are two Americas. There is the America that real people with real concerns live in
and there is the America that politicians and their supporters such as MoveOn.Org and the Main Stream Media
and their supporters live in. "....and never the twain shall meet." 
If the Pols that are in power at this time really listened to what the people in this country are saying and what we 
want, things would be so different. 
I believe that if Hillary Clinton is elected President we can expect to see not just open borders but an AmericanUnion
like that of the European Union. She will (possibly ) be able to appoint eight Supreme Court Justices during her
tenure. That would be eight Justices in the far, far, far, far, far left mode of Hillary Clinton and George Soros. Can
we live with that? Our Constitution would not just be in tatters but nonexistent!
Can we live in a country where a conservative talk show host can be railed against because he pointed out, and
rightly so, that the man lied about his military service again and again. It's called puffery when you verbally add to
the value of something you are selling but lying when you add to your military service. Once again the Democrats
are lying and saying  Rush is calling all soldiers that are against the war phony soldiers. Not so. Only ones that
are lying about their service or if they ever served in the military. But once again, Dems are trying to squelch
free speech.
This is the same tactic that is being used against people in this country that are against illegal immigration. If you
don't agree with the uber liberals that want open borders and cheap nannies and yard workers, you must shut up
because we don't want to hear that you want only legal immigration. If you don't want open borders and don't
condone law breaking sanctioned by the Congress, ACLU, Hispanic Orgs, and Al Sharpton, you are the worst
kind of RACIST!!!!!
We are at a crossroads in this country. In the upcoming and all of the elections to follow, we must carefully vet
our choices ( even more than before ) before we cast our votes. It has become apparent that our first
amendment right is in absolute peril because if what we are saying is not what the far left wants to hear we are 
being threatened with law suits, legislated against and if all else fails shouted down by mobs of "do-gooders"
that know better than we do what we actually want or need.
We must not elect politicians that George Soros and MoveOn.org have bought and paid for. If you don't believe
he has bought them, ask yourself, how may Dems even shook their fingers at MoveOn and said don't do that,
after the NYT ad about Gen'l Petraeus? Not one. While some of them may be rethinking their nonaction now, 
their first instinct was to say, "Way to go!!"
Please, please read, listen, watch and be informed.

Where Do WE Go From Here?

I just read an article on Michelle Malkin's site about Oregon using Mexican Curriculum and Teachers in it's schools
just like San Diego, CA, Austin, TX and Yakima, WA. A Spanish speaking child was quoted speaking Spanish to her
teacher and saying, "I just came here and don't speak English. She speak's my language." Is this supposed to help
them assimilate?
For the article, go to michellmalkin.com and type in Oregon Schools.

I have been reading about the unions in this country fighting to keep illegals here. Of course they are. If illegals 
belong to the unions they are paying union dues.
Now they are fighting against the new bill about checking social security numbers because of flat out false
social security numbers and numbers gained through identity theft. They claim this is aimed at illegals. Duuuuh!
With uber liberals, Al Sharpton, the Ceo of Walmart ( I never can remember his name) and the unions, along 
with LaRaza, Lulac, etc fighting against deporting illegals, along with immigration screaming that it is impossible
because there are so many illegals and so few agents, I really don't expect to see any action at all from the 
government. After all, government inattention is what got us into this mess in the first place.
Of course, there is also Mexico, telling us how we are to treat these wonderful citizens of theirs that they think so
much of that they have to come here to make a living wage.
While on the subject of Mexico..they become apoplectic when we suggest putting troops on our border with
Mexico while they have troops on their southern border because they have people from the Central American
countries coming (illegally) into Mexico to take the jobs that Mexicans won't do. Gee, sounds awfully familiar 
doesn't it?  Of course, they are allowed to use troops but it is so uncivilized of us to even consider using troops.
There's that old double standard that I see all over the world when it comes to the United States. We are supposed
to behave accordingly to Hoyle while the rest of the world goes about business as usual.
Back to the unions, Al Sharpton, etc. I know what the unions and Walmart along with all of the Hispanic 
organizations stand to gain from pushing for illegals to remain in this country. What I am puzzled about is Al
Sharpton. The good Reverend never seems to do anything unless it will benefit him in the long run. Is he another
politician that thinks illegals that get amnesty or those legals that vote, will be so grateful that they will vote for him?
I really don't think so. Consider this..Rev Al Sharpton running for president against  any Hispanic candidate. You
get the picture.
Small change of subject. I heard that Dallas is considering becoming a sanctuary city. That is working so well for
Houston!!! The MSM isn't reporting all of the kidnappings in Houston of Hispanics by Hispanics, where the victim
is either forced to clean out his/her bank account or the family members are contacted and told to clean out said
account or forget about ever seeing the victim again. I may go to FW occasionally but Dallas? No. MS13 is also in
Houston and I don't doubt they are in Dallas. I don't know what is going on there, that they would even consider
becoming a sanctuary city.
Also, being against amnesty for illegals doesn't keep yellow dog liberals from believing that anyone who is 
conservative and against illegals in this country is racist. It is the one term that they know will nearly always cause
conservatives to back down.
I do know that I got off subject but sometimes one subject doesn't cover all that is going on in one day.

My Response

Virginia Patriot, I could not have said it better than your comment. Sometimes I feel that we are being sold down the
river and can do absolutely nothing about it. It's bad enough that the uber liberal know nothings are standing on the
border with lemonade and cookies to welcome these illegals, but they call us racists for wanting to enforce our
immigration laws, and the conservatives are getting sunburned on their butts from standing around with their heads
in the sand. 
Contrary to what some might think, I am not against Mexicans. I am against illegal Mexicans in this country and the
Mexican Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson types that want to keep the legal Americans of Mexican descent 
ignorant and barefoot in order to raise themselves up.
What defeats me is that any person that has the wherewithal to cross the Mexican and U.S. deserts (I have lived in
the Arizona desert and in S TX "drylands") will not reach down deep inside of him/herself to learn English and to
assimilate into the "better life" we are told they all want. When the previous amnesty was granted, I was certain that
now, these new legals would learn English and assimilate. Foolish, foolish me!!
We all know that when our ancestors arrived at Ellis Island, the very people that were there to scam and flat out rob 
them were their own people. In other words, Italians bilked Italians, Irish bilked Irish, etc.
If you came from a country that is so bad that you started walking or you paid  a coyote every cent that you had in the
world, why would you want to live in an area of this country that is close to what you left? Why not apply for a green
card and come here legally? Surely that would be much easier than what the liberals and the conservative that sit
in Washington DC and bandy the word amnesty about are encouraging them to do. That is just flat out 
irresponsible because everytime someone says amnesty, the word goes out in Mexico and here they come.
I do know that Mexicans are not our only illegals. They are just the largest and loudest group. If you don't believe me
just try getting a picnic table at a park in Texas or going to the FW zoo on the weekend. I do not shop at Walmart. I
got tired of playing roller derby with the unattended children of illegals. ("no m'hijo, doan do that m'hijo!") ( No great
loss. I've never really liked Walmart.) 
If this sounds suspiciously like a rant..it is. Sometimes you just have to vent or the blood pressure will eventually go
through the roof.
My youngest sister said that she feels so helpless when she thinks about the climate in this country. I agree. If
someone did come up with a surefire solution that could be implemented tomorrow, Pelosi would make sure no
one heard about it and if she failed, the Hero of Chappaquidik (?) Ted Kennedy would pick up her fallen torch or
that old Klansman Robert Byrd would stand at his podium and call the person a racist.

check out letter to Orange County Register that, naturally, wasn't published because it made sense and wasn't
the msm's liberal leaning. Her husband Dave LaBonte put it on the net because it is great! I sent it to Michelle
Malkin. Perhaps she'll run it on her site.

We Want it our Way!!!!

So, you come here from another country and you don't bother with the irritable little fact that you are here illegally,
and, surprise, surprise!!! some of the "natives" are actually upset with your method of immigration!
What do you do? Do you try to quietly blend into the woodwork and start earning the better living that we've been
told you want? Do you start quietly trying to "better" your family's life as we have been told you wanted to do, which
is why you came here in the first place. 
The answer to both of these questions is a resounding NO!!! What you do is start complaining and flying your 
country's flag as you demand "YOUR RIGHTS!!!" What rights? Pardon me if I seem to be a dim bulb here, but since
when do lawbreakers who are not citizens of this country who are in this country i-l-l-e-g-a-l-l-y get to demand 
rights ( some of which citizens have to fight to receive) that they, as lawbreakers have no business demanding.
Yes, I have heard that we ( the United States ) "stole" this country from yours. Wrong. The United States purchased
the land with money and blood. Can you say, "Remember the Alamo?"
I have heard you say that you are just taking back what is yours. Right. When it is pointed out that you took it from
people that were already here, you say, but they were only Indians! Well, you didn't purchase this land from the
Indians. Instead, your priests had them tortured for not accepting your religion immediately. You enslaved them 
and killed them because they were only "ignorant savages and pagans". Can you say, "I'm glad the people of the
U.S. are more civilized than we were when we moved in on the Indians.
Now, you come to our country, uninvited, and want to remake it into what you left behind. No, you say. I beg to
differ. You don't want to learn English. You don't want to obey our laws. You demand to become citizens on the 
strength of what the Users that want to further themselves on your backs are telling you...that this country could not
exist without you. Go home!! It may take a while for us to get used to your absence, but believe it or not, we will
manage just fine!
We can live without your little enclaves that are so full of violence and corruption. When a people live their lives
shut away from the rest of society, there is a greater possibility of those who do not have the good of the
populace at heart to rise to the top of that society. Secrecy does not breed healthy societies.
If you want to only live among people that speak your native language and never learn English, Go home!
If you don't like the way we run our country, Go home!
If you don't want to respect and honor our flag above yours, Go home!
If you don't want to respect our laws, Go home!

Same Song, Second Verse

Does this seem familiar to you?
Almost all of the adults in the neighborhood do not speak English even though they were born in the United States
or came here as children. They cannot read Spanish because they are illiterate yet the government insists on
printing everything in English and Spanish. The children that are ten years old or younger have to translate if their
parents must talk to an English only speaker, no matter how adult the situation the parents are trying to handle.
These people do not work on the books. They do not pay income taxes, nor do they pay into social security. They
do pay sales tax once in a while when they must go outside of the neighborhood to shop. Most of their shopping is
done at the little front room in a house called tiendas that sell flour, milk and other staples and school needs, in
the bodegas and other little neighborhood shops, at flea markets and at garage sales. In other words, they are
living an underground existence right out in plain site.
These same people are being "enabled" in this existence by "well meaning" people in all walks of life who feel that
(and I have heard this a lot, even from school teachers and religious sisters and priests) everyone has to find their
own niche in life. To me, this is just another justification for creating an under, under class of people.
These same people who live in these neighborhoods, mostly the women, wear towels over their heads in the hot
sun to keep the lice from moving around because they cannot read the instructions on the medication that would
kill the lice or this is what their Mothers, etc did, so this is what they do in the same situation.
Do you think that I am talking about today or the future? Yes I am, but I am also talking about yesterday. This is what
I saw and lived among in Rio Grande City, TX when I was a child. I watched my friends try to cope with parents that
absolutely refused to learn English because, though they were born here, they still considered themselves to be
Mexicans. One of my friends had to try to describe her aunts rape to a police officer that couldn't speak border
Mexican....he spoke book Spanish. This was an eleven year old girl trying to make sense of what happened to her
Aunt after a neighbor made her call the police!
I look to the future and I see this situation magnified. Our children, their children and so on will have to deal with an
under class of primarily Latinos that are unskilled, cannot speak English and are being exploited by employers and politicians while at the same time, taxing the services of our country to a standstill. There eventually will be 
no more "jobs Americans won't do" because there will be too many of these people here wanting these jobs and
not enough to go around.
They will be living in poverty because, thanks to the people that encourage them not to assimilate, they won't 
have the tools to lift themselves out of the soul searing grind you into the ground poverty ( like they left in
Mexico) in which they will be living.
Crime rates will be so high because people need to eat and people want things and people are going to 
justify their crimes by saying my babies need to eat, or I deserve what he/she has even though I didn't earn it
because this is what people have done all down through history.
We need to quit talking about amnesty. We need to do this because the word goes out and they start pouring 
across the border hoping to become default citizens,
We need to come up with concrete ways to deal with deporting illegals back to whatever country they come from
and quit worrying about breaking up families. The 14th amendment was for children of freed slaves, not for
law breakers that reproduce simply to gain a foothold in this country. If a woman decides to tie herself to an
illegal whether by marriage or just by having a child with him, she has no right to later say,"You can't deport him
because you'll break up our family."
Two wrongs have never made a right.

Boy! What A Mess!!!

Our country seems to be going the way of Rome! We lionize people such as pro athletes, movie stars, music stars,
etc that do nothing to improve the country. They are paid enormous sums of money while our teachers, law
enforcement officers, fire fighters, etc are paid a pittance that depends on tax payers good will. ( Of course, at the
moment, I am not impressed with our teachers and schools!) 
The politicians in our country have openly shown themselves to be the liars and bullies and harlots that we have
long suspected them to be but at least, up until recently, they had the good sense to hide their true natures. I have
heard for so long that we are in Iraq for the oil. Well, illegal aliens are in our country because of oil!!
Mexico is our third largest supplier of oil, so do not tell me that illegals are here to keep prices on goods and 
services down for U.S. citizens! Most of our goods are made overseas or in Central America and there are
American citizens that would work the jobs illegals work but employers would have to pay minimum wages and
possibly health insurance. There goes the employers bottom line and shareholder value!
Next, we hear how impossible it would be to deport all of these illegals. If we punish, and I do mean punish! those
employers that hire these illegals ( hit them in the pocket...that's what it will take) and don't give them any place to
work, they just might go to uber liberal Canada. (That'll fix their socialized medicine policy!) If everytime an 
illegal was released from prison he/she was sent back to Mexico, we could get rid of a lot of them. This is without
La Migra even actively working at deporting i.a.s. They could deport even more of them.
If we quit letting Mexico tell us how to treat their citizens, we could crack down on illegals. If Mexico cared so much
about their citizens, they wouldn't need to come over the border in droves.
If everytime a liberal judge decides in favor of illegals "rights" instead of the rights of American citizens, the illegals
would be allowed to live in that judge's home and neighborhood (especially that one in five sexual predator 
coming across the border, you can bet there would be less illegals.
I cannot go back to the amnesty of the eighties but you can bet that anytime there is any talk of an amnesty, the
word goes out and here they come. They come here with the blessing of Mexico because somewhere along the
line Mexico adopted the policy one of my sisters has always followed, namely, what's mine is mine and what's
yours is mine.
We have movie stars and Geraldo "the spitter" Rivera telling us how we must feel about illegal aliens. We have
politicians all but standing on street corners in short skirts and tops cut down to their navels with their hands out.
We have liberal judges reinterpreting our laws. We have doofus mayors and city councils declaring their cities
to be sanctuary cities.
Our children and grandchildren are going to inherit this mess. One of these days San Francisco, Newark,
Houston, etc will find Mexican ( not Spanish ) to be the official language of their city and they'll wonder why the
ACLU isn't threatening to sue the city like they do when a city declares English to be the official language of that
city.
I never thought I would actually say this, but perhaps we DO need a nation ID Card.
