We’ll Get Amnesty Like We Get Our Illegal Aliens…

Jul 31, 2010 Immigration, Political

…Through the Back Door…

Each year millions of illegals sneak into this country through the back door. They walk across the porous southern border because the federal government refuses to do its job. When the states try to do the job the feds won’t do, Democrat appointed judges apply social justice rather than legal justice and the illegals just keep coming.

There have been several amnesties over the years and each time one was granted the American people were promised that there would not be a need for another amnesty and that the border would be secured. After the first amnesty more illegals arrived here and waited. They were granted amnesty and now even more have arrived. The illegals keep showing up because they know they will eventually get amnesty.

The American public knows that the federal government will NOT secure the border. Republicans like illegals as cheap labor and Democrats like them as voters. The Democrats pursuit of illegals is nothing more than a Democrat voter registration drive.

And it has to stop.

But it won’t. In fact, we are likely to get an amnesty without any act of Congress whatsoever. This is because the Obama regime is looking at options that will grant a de facto amnesty without the need for the pesky legislative process.

The internal draft written by officials at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services outlines ways the government could provide “relief” to illegal immigrants — including delaying deportation for some, perhaps indefinitely, or granting green cards to others — in the absence of legislation revamping the system. Yahoo News

This internal draft memo was made public by Senator Grassley of Iowa who stated that the memo confirms that the Obama regime is trying to do an end run around Congress and the legislative process.

The pro illegal immigrant groups are happy and state that this shows that someone is trying to fix the broken system.

Let me make this clear, the system is not broken. The way we enforce the existing laws is broken. We have an immigration system that has clearly defined methods to obtain a legal status in this country up to and including becoming a citizen. None of those methods involve allowing people to sneak into the country and then rewarding their criminal act with amnesty. No one can find that particular method in any law that is on the books.

The system is in place and it functions quite well when it is used properly (and enforced by the feds). People apply for a status (work visa, visitor visa, citizenship, etc) and they are evaluated. If there are no reasons they should be barred from entry then they are allowed in. If not then they are denied.

The broken part is the enforcement of our current laws. People who walk across the border without permission are invaders. They are breaking the law. There is no denying it. These people are lawbreakers and it does not matter why they did it, they are still lawbreakers.

I do not care if they need a better life, are not making it in their home country, their feet hurt, they need medical care, their Frosted Flakes got soggy, or any other excuse that might come up with for their presence here, THEY ARE LAW BREAKERS AND SHOULD NOT BE REWARDED.

But this is not how things are framed by Democrats who need more voters. They claim the system is broken. I would be happy to debate Obama or any other member of his regime on this issue because the system is not broken. The people who are not enforcing the law (and their judicial activists) are broken.

Obama knows that he will not get the amnesty he wants this session of Congress and he is pretty certain that he will not have the majority when the next Congress convenes in January 2011 so he is working on something now.

That something is backdoor amnesty and it is plain wrong.

The Executive Branch and its leader are also part of the system that is broken.

They refuse to do their jobs and for that we should hold them accountable.

Save The Illegals By Building A Wall

Jul 19, 2010 Immigration, Political

The number of illegals who are dying in the desert while entering the US illegally has risen this year, particularly in a region of Arizona where it has been particularly hot. Illegals who are trying to enter our country by breaking the law are being fried in the hot sun and are dying left and right. There are so many dead illegals that they are being stored in a refrigerated truck.

Personally, I don’t particularly care about illegals frying in the desert. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t want these people to die and I have no desire for them to die but I also know that they are responsible for what is happening. They are breaking the law and dying in the process. I have as little concern for this as I do for a bank robber who falls off a ledge and dies while trying to break into a bank or a liquor store robber who gets shot and killed by the owner of the store.

I just do not particularly care that these people dropping dead as a result of illegal activity.

But I know there are plenty of bleeding hearts out here who will say that this is some kind of travesty and that we need immigration reform to help these people.

During the decades we have given blanket amnesties and they came with a promise to secure the border. The border is not secure and people can just walk right in (weather permitting). If the Congress had kept its word and built the wall on the southern border we would not be having all these deaths in the Arizona sun.

Congress, and now Barack Obama, are responsible for these deaths because they refuse to build a wall until they get immigration reform. They are giving hope of amnesty to a lot of people who are setting out on a dangerous trek where many of them die.

We need a wall to keep them out and to keep them alive.

But mostly to keep them out.

Arizona Law Is Working Already

Jun 9, 2010 Immigration, Opinion

And it is not even in effect yet.

Hispanics are leaving Arizona in droves ahead of the new Immigration Law. There is no way to determine the exact numbers but schools are reporting that Hispanic students have stopped showing up as their parents have withdrawn them in order to move to a state where they will “feel more welcome.”

There is no way of knowing whether the people leaving are legal or illegal but it is fairly safe to say that the legal aliens are not worried about having to prove they are here legally because they can do just that. The most likely scenario is that those who are here illegally and are worried about being caught are leaving.

The linked article describes such people and it only makes sense.

The Arizona law is already working because those who are breaking the immigration law are leaving before they get caught. The purpose of any law is to control behavior and make sure people are doing what is right. Since the illegals are leaving the number of lawbreakers in Arizona is decreasing then the law is working. The law is controlling illegal behavior.

I suggest that those looking for a place where they are welcome concentrate on California. That state has many sanctuary cities that are happy to have illegals there.

If the federal government were doing its job then the illegal population would decrease dramatically just as it is in Arizona.

We Need A Flu To Close The Border?

Apr 28, 2009 General, Immigration, Political

I have been wondering what the open borders crowd is saying now that swine flu is affecting a few folks and it seems to be heavily concentrated in Mexico. You see, all the ILLEGALS who walk across our border could be sick with about any disease and no one would know. They did not have to prove they were healthy to get here, they just walked in. There were cases of TB being brought in and now there is a good possibility that any ILLEGAL showing up in the US will be carrying the swine flu and that it will be transmitted to Americans.

I am not saying that we should be all worried about the flu, not yet anyway, but this is a clear example of how ILLEGAL immigration can harm us.

We have been calling for the border to be closed for a long time. Ted Kennedy pushed for amnesty two times in the past and each time he promised that ILLEGAL immigration would stop and we would not need another amnesty. He was part of the crowd that tried to pass amnesty last year

Now, a Democrat from New York is calling for the border between Mexico and the US to be closed during the flu outbreak.

Rep. Eric Massa (D-N.Y.) said the border should be closed until the threat is resolved.

“The public needs to be aware of the serious threat of swine flu, and we need to close our borders to Mexico immediately and completely until this is resolved,” Massa said in a statement.

“I am making this announcement because I see this as a serious threat to the health of the American public and I do not believe this issue is receiving the attention it needs to have in the news,” Massa said. The Hill

He is only half right. We need to close the border but we do not need to reopen it except at designated crossings where border patrol agents are stationed. We need to shut down the border NOW and we need to keep it shut down because swine flu is not the only thing ILLEGALS can bring into this country. They can bring in TB, AIDS, hepatitis, and any number of pathogens that can do us harm.

And yes, I know these diseases exist without the ILLEGALS but ILLEGALS live in the shadows which means they are less likely to be treated. This means more diseases being spread.

It should not take a flu outbreak to get our government to do its job and secure our borders.

How Did Janet Napolitano Get Her Job?

Apr 23, 2009 Immigration, Political

It is unfortunate that many government jobs are given by appointment because Janet Napolitano, Director of Homeland Security, is unqualified to hold the position to which she was appointed. In the last two weeks she has done some amazingly stupid things.

About two weeks ago, and just before the TEA Parties, the DHS released its report on radical rightwing extremist groups which basically described all conservatives but threw in baseless accusations such as we are angry at a black man being elected president. The report targets returning veterans as potential extremists. This is a fine way to classify those who have the testicular fortitude to fight for this country.

Then, Napolitano made the statement that the 9/11 terrorists entered this country by crossing the Canadian border. This is absolutely incorrect. They flew into this country on documents issued by the State Department (and a few had MARYLAND driver’s licenses because Maryland gives them to everyone). Though she claims to have been misunderstood, it was quite clear what she said. She also tried to claim she was referring to a long debunked urban legend. She is full of bovine excrement.

The furor began when Napolitano was asked to clarify statements she had made about equal treatment for the Mexican and Canadian borders, despite the fact that a flood of illegal immigrants and a massive drug war are two serious issues on the southern border.

“Yes, Canada is not Mexico, it doesn’t have a drug war going on, it didn’t have 6,000 homicides that were drug-related last year,” she said.

“Nonetheless, to the extent that terrorists have come into our country or suspected or known terrorists have entered our country across a border, it’s been across the Canadian border. There are real issues there.”

When asked if she was referring to the 9-11 terrorists, Napolitano added: “Not just those but others as well.” [emphasis mine] CTV.ca

One would think the Director of the DHS might know the truth about the 9/11 terrorists. One might also think that she would know there is a big difference between the northern and southern borders. In the south, people sneak across illegally and stay here. They smuggle in drugs and they kill Americans. In the north, they come across, do business, and go home. They enter legally. Yes, some people have entered illegally via the northern border but nowhere near the scale that they do in the south.

The issue of the border brings us to ILLEGAL immigration. Napolitano is a little fuzzy when it comes to this topic as well. She seems to think that crossing the border illegally is not a crime. During an interview with CNN’s John King, Napolitano was discussing Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his quest to enforce the immigration laws. After she dismissed his efforts she said:

“What we have to do is target the real evil-doers in this business, the employers who consistently hire illegal labor, the human traffickers who are exploiting human misery.

“And yes, when we find illegal workers, yes, appropriate action, some of which is criminal, most of that is civil, because crossing the border is not a crime per se. It is civil. But anyway, going after those as well.” [emphasis mine]NewsMax

As the cited article points out, crossing the border is a crime punishable with a fine, jail time, or both. I am no lawyer but I believe that once an illegal is here and is caught it is a civil issue. Crossing the border is the felony. This is the dilemma. We know they committed a felony to get here but if we do not catch them actually crossing the border, it is a civil issue.

I have equated it to a man robbing a bank. If he robs the bank and gets away and a day later the cops find him spending the money, he has dye on his hands and his admits to the robbery, he is still guilty of a felony. Imagine if it were only a felony if they caught him robbing the bank but it was a civil issue if they caught him later. This is the insanity involved in our immigration laws.

Napolitano is one of the people who is supposed to protect the country but she is more interested in going after a law enforcement officer who is trying to uphold the law than the criminals who are breaking it (regardless of her “tough” rhetoric).

She thinks people who have conservative beliefs are rightwing extremists, that the 9/11 terrorists entered through Canada, and that crossing our border illegally is not a crime.

Like I said, it is unfortunate that these positions are political appointments because she has demonstrated that she is incompetent.

She should be relieved of her duties and replaced with someone who knows what he is doing.

Then again, she is what Obama wants. Someone who will be an advocate for the illegals.

Obama wants them as Democratic voters.
