Close The Barn Door First

What have you done to stop this immigration bill lately? Last week went well, but Washington is going to try to push it through again this week. Forget about last week. They still haven’t gotten the message. Or rather, they still refuse to believe you. Or they have begun not listening to you any more since the country is now run by talk radio. What? Well, according to Trent Lott anyways. Call your senators again this week, right now, tell them what you support and what you don’t.

There is not one compelling reason to not close the border first. They’ve already approved and appropriated money to build a border fence. And it is the only provision in the bill that virtually everyone has voted for. But there is no will in Washington to follow through with it. Which is exactly why they include it in this immigration bill. They are twisting your arm to get you to accept automatic legalization (some call it amnesty) of millions of illegal aliens in order to close the border. That’s why the insistence for a comprehensive bill. NO, I think we need to close the barn door first.

This bill, if approved, aside from granting legal status to millions, including convicted criminals and those who were deported and came back, or never left, will also change the demographics of this country into something more resembling Americo than America. And they don’t seem to have a problem with that.

That, and you’ll have to live with the fact that those wanting this bill will characterize you as being “anti-immigration.” That slur could not be further from the truth. It is illegal immigration that most Americans do not approve of.

Both are counting on the Latino vote. Aside from being ridiculous, because they would overwhelmingly vote democrat, not republican, what we have here are democrats and republicans putting politics ahead of our country. And us citizens and legal immigrants will pay for it. Watch it happen or take action now.

UN Says WeatherMan Caused Genocide

Mr. Ban Ki-moon, the new Sec. General of the United Nations, found a way to excuse genocide in Darfur. It’s all because of that super anti-hero WeatherMan, also referred to as ‘global warming.’ Yes, you’ve seen his power to corrupt the government in Khartoum and allow radical Muslims to run through villages raping and pillaging innocent native Africans, many of whom happen to believe in Christianity. After four years of genocide, Ban has found an excuse to not get involved and absolve the UN for its incompetence. After all, the UN can’t change the weather even though they think that we (the United States) can. It’s all our fault of course.

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said that the slaughter in Darfur was triggered by global climate change and that more such conflicts may be on the horizon

His answer seems to be to continue the ‘blame America’ mantra, using the ‘global warming’ issue, to excuse the genocide and its perpetrators as something too big for them to solve. The UN isn’t up to the task of squelching the genocide because it means squelching and punishing the radical Muslims. It’s not in their DNA.

Go Left TV Takes On Conservative Media

2 Comments

Proof that the fairness doctrine is a big mistake, the left has sprouted up a new presence on the Internet in the form of GoLeft.tv. It’s a mistake in the sense that everyone has a shot at playing pundit, success or failure depends on them, not the government.

They are properly optimistic, with all the bravado of the kick-off of Air America Radio a couple years ago. From the press release. . .

“Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, Bill O’Reilly, Michael Medved and the rest of right-wing, conservative media, beware!”

Among the people behind GLTV is a familiar face in Air America Radio land. Pensacola attorney Mike Papantonio, and his buds at his BIG LAW law firm are the major “investors” in the project. The “Pap Attack” is something he does on his Air America Radio show called the Ring of Fire, available on short wave, the Internet and a few conventional AM outlets. As referenced in the previous post, watching a minute or two of the Pap Attack will give you an idea what hate radio (hate Internet?) is.

Air America Host Attacks Hate Radio

1 Comment

On Scarborough Country last night, Mike Papantonio thought he was attacking Rush Limbaugh by calling what Rush does as hate radio, but it soon becomes apparent that all the invectives and entirely made-up accusations and name-calling that he was accusing Rush of was glaringly evident in himself. Rush doesn’t do hate radio.

June 14: Florida Democrats are protesting a conservative radio station that also provides official emergency information. Joe Scarborough asks analyst Steve Adubato and radio host Mike Papantonio if politics are trumping safety in hurricane country.

Broward County Commissioner Stacy Ritter on Rush Limbaugh and WIOD radio: ‘We don’t have to do business with them.’

I’m not defending Rush here, he doesn’t need defending. But when the one, and only, question that was asked of Joe’s two guest pundits was whether politics was interfering with public safety, Papantonio would not answer. He attacked, made up stuff, called names, refused to answer the question, for which he’ll probably be praised. That’s the way he is. Steve Adubato, the other guest did more of the same in a less rabid way, but did finally answer it in the last few seconds of the interview in the affirmative.

The pot calling the kettle black is an imperfect euphemism here because Rush is neither. Otherwise, it fits. For a preview of what Papantonio is like on his radio show, just look at this interview from last night.

UPDATE June 17, 2007: And for a full dose of his rabid rants, you can check out his new “investment” in liberal dogma called go-leftTV. Another creation of Papantonio and his law firm buds here in Pensacola.

As far as the radio station contract goes, it was renewed. Sanity prevailed.

Surge Failed, War Is Lost, Defeat Accomplished

That’s the kind of leadership Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi have to offer. Do you think al-Qaeda likes it too? They’re invested in defeat and by golly they’re going to make sure they get it.

Iraq surge a failure, top democrats tell Bush. Yes, this is the same surge that Gen. Patraeus will report on in September. There are indications that the surge is working so far, and it is not yet up to the full force level. So why do you think Harry Reid would call it a loser in June? The war is lost is another of his declarations.

The Party Comes Before Country

Wazup? Well, there’s the war on terror. That’s a big ticket item. “Social Security” is another year closer to insolvency. Another big ticket item. We have 698 miles of border to secure from terrorists and illegals. Another big ticket item. There are 12-20 million illegals in this country already. War time or not, it too is a big ticket item. There’s a lot going on and not much happening to fix any of it.

So what are democrats doing? Both the House and SenateHouse Judiciary Committee Chairman Rep. Henry Waxman (D-Ca) Judiciary committees are issuing subpoenas into an investigation of legal activity. They are investigating legal activity. There is no accusation of anything illegal in the firing of those 8 U.S. attorneys. They have issued subpoenas to former White House council Harriet Myers and Sara M. Taylor, former White House political director, and the White House for documentation. All for legal activity. Maybe probing illegal activity would better serve us? Take Rep. William Jefferson (D-La) for example. His constituents call him Dollar Bill Jefferson. He had $90,000 in marked bribe money in his freezer at his D.C. home, two years ago. That would be a good place to start.

Reid, Fighting Back Is Destabilizing

I don’t know quite how to characterize him, but senate majority ‘leader’ Harry Reid (D-NV) is beginning to sound like a broken record with his defense and war strategy. He says if we were to go into Iran to eliminate the insurgent training camps that are destabilizing Iraq and killing our own soldiers, that we would be destabilizing the region. One has to conclude that he feels that Iran’s participation in funding and equipping and training insurgents to do damage in Iraq and Lebanon and Israel is stabilizing. ?? And that makes sense to who?

“The invasion of (Iran) is only going to destabilize that part of the world more,” Reid said on Monday after speaking at a forum hosted by the Center for American Progress think tank.

Blue Angels Under Attack In San Francisco

2 Comments

The San Francisco liberals, the same ones who didn’t want a WWII warship in their harbor as a museum because it was used to kill people, those libs, the city officials, they want to keep the Blues from appearing during Fleet Week. This is simply ridiculous.

Supervisor Chris Daly on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors says of the Blue Angels “they seem dangerous and unnecessary.”

They’re too noisy. Oh and the pollution. San Francisco is in the United States isn’t it? Those bed wetting liberals need to chew on something else and leave the Blues alone. And they also need to be down there at the show, to show their support for the worlds greatest Navy and the Blue Angels.

Democrats “Lose Traction” On Ethics Reforms

1 Comment

Democrats stall, lose traction.  Traction?  A full week has gone by since Rep. William Jefferson (D-La) was indicted for bribery and racketeering charges and the majority, democrats, can not agree on how to do its own ethics investigation of Jefferson, parallel but not connected to the criminal investigation. Moving with all the deliberate speed of the United Nations, they are busy revamping ethics enforcement.

This investigation isn’t going to happen anytime soon. A week goes by and no action on Jefferson. Following the Bush lead I guess, Speaker Nancy Pelosi is not being moved by an individual case like Jefferson’s.  She’s going for the big picture.  She’s going for a comprehensive ethics reform plan.  Without pressure from the media, it could take years (stall) before they might get around to even opening an investigation.   The criminal process may take care of it for them.

Lieberman Has It Right, Just Frosts The Left

Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Ct) understands why we’re in Iraq and why we need to prevail there in a win and not a premature retreat. The President himself has already said as much back when the new rules of engagement came out around the time of the beginning of the ‘surge’ strategy. It included going into Iran in pursuit of terrorists and the Iranians responsible for training and equipping terrorists. Joe has it right, but you need to see the comments from the wacko left.

From The Huffington Post

jmc42 We have good evidence that the United States is a war criminal by attacking and unarmed nation who had not committed any attack on us. In this case, it is the United States that is in the wrong and any nation that comes to the help of the Iraqi people are – in my book – policemen needed to kick out the war criminals that are the US and GB soldiers. Your agenda is transparent and you should go to Israel to live as you are not doing shit for America.

JennyTraynor Hey, Conneticut voters…here’s your chance. Die for Israel. Die for Joe Lieberman. Send your kids. Cause you ain’t gettin mine.
