Arizona: Illegal Immigration,,,,the facts

The Obama administration declares, "the border is as secure as it has ever been!!"

Really? Then please take a look at this!!!!!

Words and Their Lack of Meaning: DOJ sues Arizona

As reported here, BHO's Dept of Justice with Eric Holder is suing the state of Arizona and its governor Janet Brewer for, get this, the Justice Department claims the federal government has "preeminent authority" on immigration enforcement and that the Arizona law "disrupts" that balance.

Upsets the balance of the Fed's authority on immigration? Darn Good Thing!

Because the Federal policy forever has been for open borders on the south and north. Arizona is merely trying to do what the Fed's won't do.

Stay tuned for lots more to be sure!

Harboring Illegal Immigrants: not priceless, $113B per year

This recently published study contends that harboring illegal immigrants in the US cost $113B or as the study says, an average of $1,117 for every “native-headed” household in America -- according to a study conducted by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR).

The study, a copy of which was provided to FoxNews.com, “is the first and most detailed look at the costs of illegal immigration ever done,” says Bob Dane, director of communications at FAIR, a conservative organization that seeks to end almost all immigration to the U.S.

Is it: Can't secure the border? Or, Won't secure the border?

Here is another salvo in the war between the state of Arizona and the Whitehouse. Polls suggest the Whitehouse is miserably losing this war.

Watch it here.

US Labor Dept helping illegals: are you surprised?

From Fox News here, Republican lawmakers are expressing shock over a Labor Department ad campaign that offers government assistance to illegal immigrants who think they're getting shortchanged for their work -- and at least one of them is planning to write to Labor Secretary Hilda Solis for an explanation.

But the Labor Department stood by the campaign, saying in a written statement to FoxNews.com that "through Democratic and Republican administrations, the Department of Labor has consistently held that the country's minimum wage and overtime law protects workers regardless of their immigration status."

And through Democratic and Republican administrations, this issue has been ducked and the American people have been lied to. And no administration has taken a hard stance toward sealing our borders.

Nope,,,,we won't defend our borders......

Oh no, to the contrary. In fact, the executive branch will send in the FBI to investigate another part of the executive branch in order to show Mexico that we are apologizing for even trying to secure our border against known smugglers.

Read it all here.

Notice how fast this administration can move to apologize for America? But see how slow they move on a real emergency that affect Americans, the oil spill in the Gulf?

Is one part of this their agenda? Is the other part just an annoyance?

So sorry Arizona........

National Guard on Border.....why?

Yesterday we asked here, why were the Fed's suddenly sending National Guard troops to the border? To stop Mexicans or to tamp down on Americans?

Well now we are told here that the Guard will not be stopping illegal immigrants. Rather, National Guard troops being sent to the Mexican border will be used to stem the flow of guns and drugs across the frontier and not to enforce US immigration laws, the State Department said Wednesday.

How absolutely stupid and useless!! More resources for the failed War on Drugs. And whose weapons will the Nat Guard be taking? Those of lawful American owners?

Nothing, and I mean nothing, this Administration does is for the good of the country or to defend the Constitution. It is all about the leftist ideology.

Stay tuned.

Border Security and Racial Profiling

A lot of hysterical finger pointing and bellowing have been done about the potential practice of "racial profiling" as Arizona seeks to secure her border with Mexico.

Consider this hypothetical case:

Pretend, for a moment, that you are a private border security guard working for a company called TOTALSECURE. Your company, TOTALSECURE, has just been awarded a contract by the state of Arizona to guard the entire Arizona-Mexican border. The goal stated in the contract is to reduce successful illegal border crossings into Arizona by 50%. The contract is performance based which means TOTALSECURE does not get paid a dime if they do not meet the objective of 50% reduction in successful illegal border crossings.

As a border security guard for TOTALSECURE you will earn minimum wage. But for every illegal immigrant you arrest and who is confirmed to be illegal by the law, you will receive a $1,000 bonus. On the other hand every person you arrest as an illegal immigrant who is later shown to be here legally, will cost you $2,000.

After receiving your assigned territory and equipment, you request to see pictures of the previous 1,000 illegal immigrants arrested in your territory. You are shown a book containing pictures of 911 Mexicans, 21 Colombians, 13 El Salvadorans, 11 people from Afganistan, 8 Iranians, 6 Egyptians, 4 Sudanese, 11 Jamaicans, 10 Cubans, and 5 Caucasians of undetermined citizenship.

On your first day of the job, who would you be looking for?

Obama relative is safe

This "productive" member of society is safe: as reported here, this relative of President Obama can continue to live in her public-assistance housing because of my and your taxes.

Is the Presidnet proud of how his family contributes to American greatness? He has not said.

Why I voted for the Arizona Law: A Senator Responds

As the State-Run media and ACLU and other leftist organizations stir up images of Nazi Germany through Arizona's passage of a law which simply lets the state do what the Federal Govenment WON'T do, let's listen to someone who was actually involved in the deliberations which led to passage of that law: Senator Sylvia Allen as reported here.

I’m Arizona State Senator Sylvia Allen. I want to explain SB 1070 for which I voted yes. Rancher Robert Krentz was murdered by the drug cartel on his ranch a month ago. I participated in a senate hearing two weeks ago on the border violence, here is just some of the highlights from those who testified.

The people who live within 60 to 80 miles of the Arizona/Mexico Border have for years been terrorized and have pleaded for help to stop the daily invasion of humans who cross their property . One Rancher testified that 300 to 1200 people a DAY come across his ranch vandalizing his property, stealing his vehicles and property, cutting down his fences, and leaving trash. In the last two years he has found 17 dead bodies and two Koran bibles. Another rancher testified that daily drugs are brought across his ranch in a military operation. A point man with a machine gun goes in front, 1/2 mile behind are the guards fully armed, 1/2 mile behind them are the drugs, behind the drugs 1/2 mile are more guards. These people are violent and they will kill anyone who gets in the way. This was not the only rancher we heard that day that talked about the drug trains. One man told of two illegal’s who came upon his property one shot in the back and the other in the arm by the drug runners who had forced them to carry the drugs and then shot them. Daily they listen to gun fire during the night it is not safe to leave his family alone on the ranch and they can’t leave the ranch for fear of nothing being left when they come back.

The border patrol is not on the border. They have set up 60 miles away with check points that do nothing to stop the invasion. They are not allowed to use force in stopping anyone who is entering. They run around chasing them, if they get their hands on them then they can take them back across the border. Federal prisons have over 35% illegal’s and 20% of Arizona prisons are filled with illegal’s. In the last few years 80% of our law enforcement that have been killed or wounded have been by an illegal. The majority of people coming now are people we need to be worried about. The ranchers told us that they have seen a change in the people coming they are not just those who are looking for work and a better life.

The Federal Government has refused for years to do anything to help the border states . We have been over run and once they are here we have the burden of funding state services that they use. Education costs have been over a billion dollars. The healthcare cost billions of dollars. Our State is broke, $3.5 billion deficit and we have many serious decisions to make. One is that we do not have the money to care for any who are not here legally. It has to stop.

The border can be secured. We have the technology and we have the ability to stop this invasion. We must know who is coming and they must come in an organized manner legally so that we can assimilate them into our population and protect the sovereignty of our country. We are a nation of laws. We have a responsibility to protect our citizens and to protect the integrity of our country and the government which we live under. I would give amnesty today to many, but here is the problem, we dare not do this until the Border is secure. It will do no good to give them amnesty because thousands will come behind them and we will be over run to the point that there will no longer be the United States of America but a North American Union of open borders. I ask you what form of government will we live under? How long will it be before we will be just like Mexico , Canada or any of the other Central American or South American country? We have already lost our language, everything must be printed in Spanish. We have already lost our history, it is no longer taught in our schools, and we have lost our borders.

The leftist media has distorted what SB 1070 will do. It is not going to set up a Nazi Germany. Are you kidding? The ACLU and the leftist courts will do everything to protect those who are here illegally, but it was an effort to try and stop illegal’s from setting up businesses, and employment, and receiving state services and give the ability to local law enforcement when there is probable cause, like a traffic stop, to determine if they are here legally. Federal law is very clear, if you are here on a visa you must have your papers on you at all times. That is the law. In Arizona all you need to show you are a legal citizen is a driver license, MVD identification card, Native American Card, or a Military ID. This is what you need to vote or get a hunting license. So nothing new has been added to this law. No one is going to be stopped walking down the street. The Socialists who are in power in DC are angry because we dare try and do something.The Socialists wants us to just let them come. They want the “Transformation” to continue.

Maybe it is too late to save America . Maybe we are not worthy of freedom anymore. But as an elected official I must try to do what I can to protect our Constitutional Republic . Living in America is not a right just because you can walk across the border. Being an American is a responsibility and it comes by respecting and upholding the Constitution, the law of our land, which says what you must do to be a citizen of this country. FREEDOM IS NOT FREE.

Senator Sylvia Allen .

Blow back in Arizona: better duck Mr. President

While the President makes snide remarks, jokes, and laughs at the efforts of the people of Arizona to protect themselves, his stupidity earned him this blow back from that state:

Watch here and enjoy...

We have met the enemy and they are us: Immigration and Sham Marriages

"Big Sis" and so many other liberals were rocked back on their heels when they learned that the newest islamic nut-job terrorist trying to blow us up was a naturalized citizen! Oh my, how could that be? What went wrong?

Two words: Sham Marriages!

A little history lesson here from Michelle Malkin at NRO.

El Sayyid A. Nosair wed Karen Ann Mills Sweeney to avoid deportation for overstaying his visa. He acquired U.S. citizenship, allowing him to remain in the country, and was later convicted for conspiracy in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing that claimed six lives.

Ali Mohamed became an American citizen after marrying a woman he met on a plane trip from Egypt to New York. Recently divorced, Linda Lee Sanchez wed Mohamed in Reno, Nev., after a six-week “courtship.” Mohamed became a top aide to Osama bin Laden and was later convicted for his role in the 1998 United States embassy bombings in Africa that killed 12 Americans and more than 200 others.

Embassy-bombing plotter Khalid Abu al-Dahab obtained citizenship after marrying three different American women.

Embassy-bombing plotter Wadih el-Hage, Osama bin Laden’s personal secretary, married April Ray in 1985 and became a naturalized citizen in 1989. Ray knew of her husband’s employment with bin Laden, but like many of these women in bogus marriages, she pleaded ignorance about the nature of her husband’s work. El-Hage, she says, was a sweet man, and bin Laden “was a great boss.”

Okay, see a pattern here? If you want to fix a problem, maybe knowing what the problem is might help.

So, keep watch, and see what official Washington does about this problem. My bet is on "nothing".

JOE LEGAL vs. JOE ILLEGAL

You have two families: "Joe Legal" and "Joe Illegal".
Both families have two parents, two children, and live in California .

Joe Legal works in construction, has a Social Security Number and makes $25.00 per hour with taxes deducted.

Joe Illegal also works in construction, has NO Social Security Number, and gets paid $15.00 cash "under the table".

Ready? Now pay attention...

Joe Legal: $25.00 per hour x 40 hours = $1000.00 per week, or $52,000.00 per year. Now take 30% away for state and federal tax; Joe Legal now has $31,231.00.

Joe Illegal: $15.00 per hour x 40 hours = $600.00 per week, or $31,200.00 per year. Joe Illegal pays no taxes. Joe Illegal now has
$31,200.00.

Joe Legal pays medical and dental insurance with limited coverage for his family at $600.00 per month, or $7,200.00 per year. Joe Legal now
has $24,031.00.

Joe Illegal has full medical and dental coverage through the state and local clinics at a cost of $0.00 per year. Joe Illegal still has $31,200.00.

Joe Legal makes too much money and is not eligible for food stamps or welfare. Joe Legal pays $500.00 per month for food, or $6,000.00 per
year. Joe Legal now has $18,031.00.

Joe Illegal has no documented income and is eligible for food stamps and welfare. Joe Illegal still has $31,200.00.

Joe Legal pays rent of $1,200.00 per month, or $14,400.00 per year. Joe Legal now has $9,631.00.

Joe Illegal receives a $500.00 per month federal rent subsidy. Joe Illegal pays out that $500.00 per month, or $6,000.00 per year. Joe Illegal still has $ 31,200.00.

Joe Legal pays $200.00 per month, or $2,400.00 for insurance. Joe Legal now has $7,231.00.

Joe Illegal says, "We don't need no stinkin' insurance!" and still has $31,200.00.

Joe Legal has to make his $7,231.00 stretch to pay utilities, gasoline, etc.

Joe Illegal has to make his $31,200.00 stretch to pay utilities, gasoline, and what he sends out of the country every month.

Joe Legal now works overtime on Saturdays or gets a part time job after work.

Joe Illegal has nights and weekends off to enjoy with his family.

Joe Legal's and Joe Illegal's children both attend the same school.Joe Legal pays for his children's lunches while Joe Illegal's children get a government sponsored lunch. Joe Illegal's children have an after school ESL
program. Joe Legal's children go home.

Joe Legal and Joe Illegal both enjoy the same police and fire services, but Joe paid for them and Joe did not pay.

Do you get it, now?

If you vote for or support any politician that supports illegal aliens...
You are part of the problem!

It's way PAST time to take a stand for America and Americans!
What are you waiting for? Pass it on.

Do you hear us? Illegal means illegal and criminal!

Now that it looks an Arizona sherrif's deputy has been shot by an illegal immigrant involved in criminal activity, as reported here, maybe we can move beyond all the overheated liberal rhetoric about profiling and the like and really look at the core issues.

Our country is being invaded daily. And it is not by little huddled masses of the poor but also by sophisticated big time criminal elements that will murder without a thought if anyone gets in their way......IN OUR COUNTRY!

Arizona has enacted a law to do what it needs to do to protect its citizens since the Federal government for 30 years and more has refused to do this.

Your community may be next and probably already is affected by the drug trade, so you better pay attention and not mouth liber feel-good phrases if you want to keep your country!
