So let me get this straight

Obama wants to expand the S-Chip program to cover the medical expenses of illegal aliens but wants vets to pay for their own medical issues. S-chip has a clause that says a state may not check the citizenship of it’s applicants and that it must cover the applicant for at least 90 days while it evaluates the application. So when Juan needs some meds, he files an app on the S-Chip and gets his 90 days and gets his medicine. Meanwhile, a vet that gets his leg blown off, has to pay for his own rehab? War wounds take a long time to heal and Obama thinks they aren’t worth fixing?

Illegals are criminals who have no business in this country. They contribute nothing to our society except drunk driving deaths, rapes, murders, higher unemployment amongst legal citizens (who WOULD do those jobs) and bankrupt hospitals in California, Arizona, New Mexico amongst other states. They will get free health care and our veterans won’t. Basically, criminals are more valuable to Obama than true American heroes. Does that about cover it?

the ABC’s of victory

A B C D E F G, H I J K L M N O P, Q R S, T U V, W, X, Y and Z. Now we know our abc’s now let’s apply them to victory! Ok, pretty sad, but when I was reading an ABC book to the kids back in November, my mind went all political and poof I started this. I’m sure I should just hit that delete key on this, but hey, I’ve been slacking lately so let’s have some fun!

So here’s my abc’s to the letter H! Add some more in comments.

A is for amnesty RINO’s pride and joy. They called it “reform”. Hey look! The anchor baby’s a boy!
Call it what you want, but it hurt us last election. We need a strong message against amnesty for illegals and we need it now. Oh, and despite what people may delude themselves into thinking, it was amnesty. No? Well, explain something to me. I want to dodge my taxes. I would like to not pay them for 5 years. Then when I am caught, I would like to only pay 3 of the 5 years on the income I tell you that I made. No? Why not? Won’t the IRS like that? Not if you’re Joe the plumber, but if you’re Pedro the builder, well, hey, line right up. You know what else I would like? I’d like to get some credit using someone else’s id. I’m only going to use it to get a credit card, and a TV and maybe a car, oh, and a job. What? I’ll go to jail for identity theft? Yeah, I guess. Well, if you’re Joe the plumber. Not if I’m Pedro the builder. The feds will forgive all that and more! When you can commit crime after crime and all you have to do is get in a line like everyone else and you won’t be arrested and deported. It’s AMNESTY. And to cap it off, that was just for those that wanted to become citizens! Those that didn’t want citizenship didn’t have to ever pay those taxes or stop using that ID and the government would not go after them. If that is not AMNESTY then nothing is. What is that you say? Crime committing illegals get deported? BFD. Here in North Carolina they purposely get caught near Christmas. They use deportation as a free trip home. Now some are saying our “bigoted immigration stands” caused problems. Bullshit. McCain was just as gung ho as Bush on amnesty. That’s not what stopped the Hispanic vote from coming our way. Why did they not come to us this time? McCain never courted them this election while Obama was there over and over in CA, NC and other highly Hispanic areas. Bush held Hispanic event after event. McCain? He figured he had them locked up being an amnesty supporter from the border. Here’s the fun part. We get another chance to make a stand. That stimulus bill? It stripped out E-Verify. It’s estimated that 300k jobs or more could go to illegals. Our response? Nada. We should be raising holy hell. Don’t think for a second we won’t win that issue AND win a ton more votes. Illegals taking jobs that Americans WILL do when the unemployment is 8+ percent? Come on! We are completely misplaying the illegal alien card. We should be harping on it over and over and electing only those that promise to shut down the flood at our borders and get harsher with those that overstay their visas. It’s not just border illegals, it’s visa illegals too. Get them all.

B is for bailouts, McCain’s chance to shine, but when the time came, he caved and signed the dotted line.

Look, no one wanted that stupid bill back in October. No one wanted the one that just passed. The saddest thing is that when it passed in October, WE were the ones blamed for the whole problem by 75-25 according to Rasmussen. How the hell does that happen? Simply put, lack of communication. That is our biggest problem as a movement. We refuse to communicate outside our movement to get others with us. McCain could have gone after Raines, Gorelick and the other dems that were knee deep in this corruption. He refused. Our PACs and our 527s could be firing off commercials about the corruption of the democrats and their complicity with this. But so far the only attack I have seen is a billboard by democrats in Florida ragging on Limbaugh.

C is for corruption our polls it does drag on, while we kick ours out, the dems circle the wagon.

That is one difference that kills us. When we have corrupt people, we draw and quarter them publicly. Dems don’t and are protected by the press. I’m not saying excuse corruption like the democrats do. We just need to deal with ours better and expose theirs better. The fact that Jefferson stayed there as long as he did is a disgrace. The fact that we make our people step down from leadership positions from a mere indictment is pathetic, especially when indictments are now weapons of the left. We need to stop throwing good people away when the dems come after them in a political witch hunt. Otherwise we’ll not have anyone left. We need to back them better. We also need to carp until we’re blue about the corruption in the democrat party. We seem to be doing better now. We got Daschle. Looks like we’ll get a couple more. But we need to nail the big fish. We need to make hay out of Pelosi demanding Air Force jets for personal travel and other items like that. The dems are more corrupt than we ever were. They need exposure.

D is for drilling, Palin was right, but McCain sided with the left and lost the fight.

This was another hanging curveball that we had a teed and McCain whiffed badly. The fact is our oil policy is what killed the economy long before the bank crisis. If we don’t have 4 dollar gas, we don’t have nearly as many defaulting on credit. If we don’t have 4 dollar milk because of milking cows being slaughtered to make room for corn fields for ethanol, we don’t have nearly the credit issue. If food farms aren’t being plowed under for corn subsidies for ethanol, we don’t have skyrocketing food prices and we don’t have credit defaults. If gas isn’t 4 bucks, EVERYTHING is cheaper. Palin is from an oil family in Alaska. She knows oil better than any jerk in the Congress or the Whitehouse. Alternative this and alternative that? Fine for the future. But drill now is better. The dems will go back and ban drilling everywhere they can now. They’ve already started. As soon as the prices start to climb again, and they will, we need to tie that to Obama’s neck and drag him and the democrats down. We can win with that one. We need to play it up.

E is for entitlements which we’re supposed to oppose but we didn’t act like it so nobody knows.

Remember when we were for SMALLER government? Ah, the good old days. The people do and decided that if we were going to act like dems, they might as well vote for dems. The Club for Growth did a study on 12 swing districts that went for Bush but were going for Obama. Eventually 11 of the 12 went Obama. People looked at both McCain and Obama and saw no difference. They went Obama because he was promising change. Now, you and I both know that’s all they’ll have in their pockets when Obama gets done with them, but they figured that since both parties spend, maybe the one who is shiny and new would be better. They’re finding out otherwise but do you blame them for thinking that? Look at 2000 - 2006. We controlled everything and spent worse than Clinton, Carter or LBJ. We need to find our axe man or axe woman. Someone who will promise to slice spending across the board and then hold him or her to it. Putting it bluntly, it’s sad when we have to hope that the single most liberal member of the senate, elected to become the single most liberal president is the fiscally responsible one.

F is for failure, Bush never acted in charge, he mailed it in the last 4 years and that cost us large.

So quick quiz. How many vetoes did W use in his first 5 years? 6 years? 7 years? All 8 years? Answers: 0 in the first 5 years. 1 in the first 6 years. That one was a freaking stem cell bill. In 2007 he actually vetoed 7 for a total of 8 to date. He had a total of 12 in 8 years. Obviously we need to vet our candidates better. Anyone who looked at Bush in Texas would realize that he did the same in the Whitehouse that he did in Texas. I’ll admit to that failure when I supported him in the primaries. I’ll do better in the future.

G is greed, not corporate but government. “Taxes are the people’s money” but we forgot what that meant.

Bush said “we have to spend the people’s money wisely”. What a freaking joke. Then came McCain our other standard bearer. Yeah, he said that he’d kill earmarks, but then signed on to the biggest 750 billion porker in history. Suddenly his opposition to 2-3 million in earmarks seemed worthless. We’re supposed to oppose that garbage, not thrive on it. Corporations are supposed to be greedy. It’s for the shareholders. The government isn’t. It looks like we’re learning the lesson. That February stimulus passed without any real republican support. If we keep that kind of opposition up and we justify it, we’ll win back the house quick and the senate in a couple cycles. On the flip side, look when McCain started to tank. It was when the maverick outsider ran back to Washington and signed onto W’s bailouts. If he had opposed that one, who knows…

H is for honor, something McCain and his campaign no longer have, otherwise Palin would have been defended not savaged.

You already know my feelings on that one… We need to defend our own better and with Obama, we need to stop dancing around the race issue. It was racial politics that caused this housing mess. Plain and simple. The CRA from the 70’s that Clinton enhanced in 1999 caused this. Logic says people who don’t pay their bills aren’t good candidates for mortgages. Logic says that although red lining is bad, giving loans to someone just because they are in a black neighborhood is a bad idea. We need to voice that better and stop being afraid every time someone tries the race card. Time to grow a pair.

I could go on, but I’ve run out of clever lines. So add some in comments!

Sanctuary city kills citizen

First the video. This will be hard, but go here and watch this: It is a woman talking about her dead family.

Anthony Bolognas and his family were out for a drive. He accidentally blocked an intersection. He realized it and backed his car up to allow a vehicle he was blocking to pass. The car was being driven by this nice illegal alien who decided to commit the murder that Americans don’t want to commit. In a rage, he stepped out of the vehicle and opened fire. Danielle lost her 2 sons and her husband. In 15 seconds, she became a childless widow.

The murderer, Edwin Ramos, is an illegal and a member of MS-13 with a felony record. Frisco knew he was a felon and failed to report him for deportation. After all, the enlightened liberals run a sanctuary city. Another American family is sacrificed at the altar of political correctness.

I wish someone would ask Pelosi if she still agrees with her town’s sanctuary city stand. Bush is partly to blame too. He has been lax his entire tenure on this issue. San Fran needs its federal funds frozen. They need to feel some kind of pain for this kind of nonsense. Unfortunately, our government, starting at the top with Bush, Pelosi and Reid, will never do anything. They have long supported illegals in the country. This won’t change that. Taking back the congress and forcing the next president to do something might. Start with McCain, then vote the house and senate back too.

Tonight’s Tear Jerker

From Tijuana:

The two men are led out from cells deep inside the basement of “La Comandancia,” the city’s aging police headquarters.

They have shaven heads and a shaken look. Police officers order them to lift their shirts and show off their gang tattoos, which indicate they’re from San Jose, Calif. Both had just been deported from the United States, dropped off a few weeks earlier at the public gates of Tijuana.

On an old wooden table in front of them is a display of their loot, the result of a string of petty thefts victimizing Tijuana street vendors: a backpack, two makeshift knives, some coins along with a few packets of mints, gum and a bottle of perfume.

… Tijuana’s Mayor Kurt Honald, … has protested the dumping of criminals at the Tijuana gates. He says deportees have triggered a 300 percent rise in petty crime during the last year, as criminals raise money for a return to the U.S. Others join narcotics cartels and smuggling organizations to pay for their return.

Criminal deportees represent about one-third – 84,652 in the year ended Sept. 30 – of ICE formal deportations across the United States. And they are quickly becoming the leading category of deportee being processed by ICE. Under pressure from Congress to step up immigration enforcement, the Bush administration has expanded funding for a series of programs that seek to deport illegal immigrants out of a myriad of federal, state and local jails.

Torres Gallego heads a task force that raids neighborhoods where criminal deportees are involved in crime. She said because of their criminal records, these migrants now aren’t wanted by anyone. They have no ID in the United States. No ID in Mexico. So they get shuffled from one place to another.

“It’s very sad,” Torres said.

Tijuana’s petty crime rate is up 300% and as usual it is all America’s fault. Boo friggin hoo.

This is America - When Ordering, Please Speak English

Ridiculous:

PHILADELPHIA (CBS3/AP) ― The Philadelphia Commission on Human Relations held a public hearing Friday to address a controversial sign at the popular Geno’s Steaks that has garnered worldwide attention.

The hearing was scheduled after allegations were made accusing Geno’s Steaks of discrimination for posting a sign that reads: “This Is America. When Ordering Speak English.”

Geno’s owner Joey Vento said it is “free speech” and defended his policy during Friday’s hearing.

“This country is a melting pot, but what makes it work is the English language,” Vento told the commission during a hearing that lasted more than six hours. “I’m not stupid. I would never put a sign out to hurt my business.”

So simple even an eight year-old can understand it: If you don’t like the sign or the sentiment, go somewhere else.
(Which is, of course, what my daughter basically said when the story was on the news.)

You tell ‘em, Joey.

When Vento was called to testify, the 68-year-old grandson of Italian immigrants started paraphrasing Theodore Roosevelt so quickly that the court reporter had to ask him to slow down.

“To be an American, you have to be American and nothing else. For if you say you’re something else, then you’re not a true American,” Vento said, drawing on the words of the 26th president.

“I’m an American of Italian descent,” he said. “I’m not an Italian-American.”

And obviously, he is not being discriminatory.

Another sign at Geno’s that says employees have the right to refuse service to any customer, but Vento said it has been there for about 20 years and is not related to the speak-English sign. He testified that he has never turned anyone away because he couldn’t order in English.

“Nobody goes away without a sandwich,” Vento said.

Islamofascists in Londonistan

I found this set of videos via LGF; if you want to see why they call it “Londonistan,” watch this–and beware those who would create the same environment here with their claims of “tolerance” and “diversity.”

McCain’s immigration position shifts, Beauchamp’s a liar, etc.

Eh, I hate writing about the same stuff everyone else has written. Just go read Ace or something. (Sorry about including John McCain, who served honorably in the Navy, in the same headline as that lying sack o’shi’ite Beauchamp.)

See? I told y’all, I’m in a slump. Busy with other stuff, bored, sleep schedule is out of whack, you know the drill. Gimme a couple weeks; when school starts I’ll probably be more motivated. I hope. Maybe not.

Blog Apathy

If you need a little spoofy snark, check out the “Scott Thomas” blog. ;-)

Please Arlen. Stop already.

Sen. Arlen Specter (R-Pa.) said he’s floating a plan that would grant legal status to the nation’s 12 million illegal immigrants, but offer no path to citizenship.

“It might be the equivalent of a green card,” Specter said Thursday. “The main thrust is to bring the 12 million out of the shadows,” and eliminate the fear of arrest or deportation.

What is this ‘out of the shadows‘ bullshi’ite?

Specter said conservatives who last month derailed a comprehensive immigration bill might accept his plan because it would not allow the 12 million to seek citizenship status.

“We litigated amnesty and that lost,” Specter said.

Errrrrrr. I thought it abso-posi-lutely was NOT amnesty. Not no way, not no how. Now it WAS? Then riddle me this, Pratman, why should we believe a word you say, when you’ve just admitted you were lying your farking ass off last time around?

He doesn’t get it. Immigration is fine. Americans support it. But FIRST stop the flow at the border, then we can talk about what to do with the 12 million illegals already here. Nobody is ready to give a green card to 12 million people for successfully breaking every immigration law on the books.

With the dubious exception of Arlen Specter, who’s busily slating John Roberts and Sam Alito, when he’s not trying to resurrect a dead immigration bill that pissed off every Republican and 80% of Democrats when it died.

If Bush is a lame duck with 30% approval

With 18 months left of his term, then what is Nancy Pelosi, with a 25% approval rating and 18 months left of her term?

I’m a little aggravated that Chertoff isn’t even pretending he’ll seek the $4.4 billion he so urgently needed last week. It’s all been said, but the entire Grand Bargain coalition took us for a bunch of absolute numbskulls.

I know it was to be funded from Z Visa income, but if it was urgently needed and they had ‘heard’ us, does it not seem something of an insult that they’re openly blowing us off with a big ‘fark you’?

Just saying.

With all due respect Senator Specter, the will of the PEOPLE is what counts. Sorry about that.

You farking tosser.

“We are in trench warfare and it’s going to be rough,” said Pennsylvania Republican Arlen Specter, a chief sponsor of the legislation. “But we are going to see the will of the Senate work one way or another.”

Who the hell does he think he is? I hate to remind these pompous blowhards, but remind them I will:

You. Work. For. Me.

This bill is toast anyway; the House will castrate it and send it back with a farking apple in its mouth if the Senate is dumb enough to proceed to a final vote.

Exit suggestion: Stick to creating bills the conventional way, because we the people prefer it. Just some friendly advice.

Why do we need Cabinet Secretarys?

If they can spend their entire time bribing people to vote for their shi’itety farking immigration bill?

Meanwhile, two of Bush’s Cabinet members have made almost a full-time job of lobbying for the bill. Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff and Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez may as well be considered tenants on Capitol Hill, Kaplan quipped.

Disgusting. I thought protecting the homeland was more important than ensuring ADM have enough cheap strawberry-pickers.

Apparently not.

How is this horrible thing even breathing?

This should go down in flames, but it still may not.

Among the public, there is a bi-partisan lack of enthusiasm for the Senate bill. It is supported by 22% of Republicans, 23% of Democrats, and 22% of those not affiliated with either major party. It is opposed by 52% of Republicans, 50% of Democrats, and 48% of unaffiliateds.

From an ideological perspective, the bill is opposed by 59% of conservatives, 54% of liberals, and 45% of political moderates. Among those for whom none of the traditional ideological labels apply, just 20% are opposed.

Support is found from 20% of conservatives, 32% of liberals, and 18% of moderates.

Just 32% believe it would be better to pass the current bill instead of doing nothing. Forty-five percent (45%) believe it would be better to pass nothing at all.

What are our side thinking? I’m at a total loss. I expect this from Ted Kennedy, but from Southern Senators? Conservatives?

President Bush - How is the same bureaucracy that let into the country a man with a virulent strain of TB, who was also on the no-fly list, going to process 12 million Z Visa applications? Let’s say that ICE has 50,000 people doing nothing else. 12m/50k = 240 applications per person. Let’s say each takes 40 hours, total processing time. 240 x 40 = 9600 manhours. 9600/2080 = 4.62 man years. It’ll take 5 years, without doing any other work, and assuming no other applications come in. How utterly foolish to think this will do anything but clog up the system for the next ten years , whereupon another coalition of open borders liberals and cheap labor conservatives will sell us another amnesty.

And why do the supporters of this bill keep dissembling and telling us that none of these provisions come into effect until the security measures are in place, when the Z visa is issued on a probationary basis IMMEDIATELY upon application? It’s unworthy of them, and it’s pissing me off.

I don’t mind being lied to by Ted Kennedy. I hate being lied to by Graham, Lott, Kyl, McCain et al.

More on that House Republican immigration bill

Unsurprisingly, there’s little ink being spilled about this one–this bill that it seems most voters would want, if you listen to the statistics given by the enforcement-first side in the immigration debate, that is:

The House bill stands virtually no chance of becoming law, or even advancing, in the Democratic-controlled Congress. Still, it casts in bold relief the split between Bush and many fellow Republicans in the immigration debate.

The bill surfaced one day after Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), working with the White House, resurrected efforts to pass the broader legislation Bush wants.

This is the best anyone’s going to get, and it’s what most people want. I certainly hope those who have been bombarding their Senators’ offices with phone calls and email will do the same with their Representatives in support of this bill.

What is surprising is that although it supposedly “stands virtually no chance,” this hasn’t seemed to catch on yet among the blogosphere. Interesting.

Hello? Is anyone paying attention?

I know, some will still say it’s not enough. Tough. The closest we’ll ever get to “enforcement-first” is this bill. Support it, fight for it, or you’ll start sounding like barking moonbats–simply existing to oppose. Don’t make your arguments irrelevant.

While you’re at it, regarding the Senate bill:

The bill can be stopped. Following are 17 Republican senators identified by the group Numbers USA as possibly being willing to switch and vote for cloture in exchange for giving the Senate a chance to vote down one of their amendments: Lamar Alexander (Tennessee); Robert Bennett (Utah); Saxby Chambliss (Georgia); Thad Cochran (Mississippi); Norm Coleman (Minnesota); Susan Collins (Maine); Larry Craig (Idaho); Pete Domenici (New Mexico); Judd Gregg (New Hampshire); Orrin Hatch (Utah); Kay Bailey Hutchison (Texas); Johnny Isakson (Georgia); Jon Kyl (Arizona); Trent Lott (Mississippi); Mitch McConnell (Kentucky.); Lisa Murkowski (Alaska); Olympia Snowe (Maine); Ted Stevens (Alaska); and John Warner (Virginia). These lawmakers will likely decide the fate of the amnesty bill in the Senate.
