View Article  Minutemen Imploding Continues - Gilchrist Denounces His Monsters
IMMIGRATION A LOSER FOR THE GOP

The SPLC brings us the lovely and welcomed tale about the ongoing implosion of the minutemen, et. al.  Jim Gilchrist is denouncing the movement he helped to create.  They are denouncing him.  It makes for a wonderful story of how, when you lay down with dogs, you get up with fleas!
"...Gilchrist, who has spent the past four years of his life trying to keep immigrants out of the country, is an unlikely booster for ethnically diverse neighborhoods. But, these days, it seems he would rather spend time in the company of immigrants ...   more »
View Article  How Non-Republican Conservatives Are Manipulating the "Bailout" on the Hill
 COWARDLY CONSERVATIVES OF THE CONGRESS

Last night I emailed a friend about something that bugs me.  I know it is silly and stupid, but a teacher of mine once said that the only bad question is the one not asked.  So, I am asking it.  Am I the only one who finds the timing of this "financial crash" a but peculiar?  Sunday morning, in a fit of depression that is making me feel rather bi-polar about this whole election cycle, I called my mother.  (When all else fails phone home).  "This is bad.  The worst thing is the Dems ...   more »
View Article  John Tanton Exposed (Like a Cheap Dirty Flasher)
WHITE SUPREMACIST, KKK TIES

The Immigration Prof Blog beat me to the story!  But, it's such a juicy one, I can't resist.  Seems like the lid has just been blown off the whole John Tanton Empire and it couldn't happen to a better person.  Over the years, Tanton has played the innocent victim card, complaining and crying tears of the crocodile when someone had the nerve to associate him with the less savory elements of American society.  The SPLC has information that should prove ruinous.

Naturally the anti-immigration wonks will protest and say all manner of things about the SPLC, ...   more »
View Article  Damning the Family of A Murdered Illegal Immigrant
GUILTY BY ASSOCIATION, RIGHT?
The extreme anti-immigration usual sources are determined to find a way to convict the fiance of Luis Ramirez who was brutally attacked and murdered by local high school football heroes in Shenandoah, PA.  They are determined to find something wrong with Crystal Dillman.  She is damned because she was cited for driving without a driver's license.  She had not lost one, had no DUI, etc., she just did not have a "Valid" driver's license.  From what I gather about Shenandoah, I would question their version of "valid".  There seems to be several different levels of ...   more »
View Article  Are the Minutemen DOA?
ALL IS NOT WELL

For a few months The Pink Flamingo has been telling anyone who wouldn't listen that the minutemen, etc. are in big trouble.  Evidently things are not all sweetness and light in anti-immigration land. (H/T Sally Vee) Suppose they gave a great big 'ol anti-immigration thingie with all the usual suspects and nobody came?  Well, that's what happened in Denver when the whole Tancredo show decided to co-opt the DNC. 


It gets even better (or worse depending on your point of view). Dee, who has immigration blog, has some absolutely delicious information about one of the ...   more »
View Article  SC's Senior Senator - Lindsey Graham
THE GOP'S WYATT & DOC COMBO

It must be terribly frustrating for a Democrat in South Carolina who is trying to take on Lindsey Graham.  Of course, turn-about is fair play.  I spent most of my life watching politics in South Carolina, and the futility of a Republican even bothering to challenge the misc. entrenched Third District Congressman - then Lindsey was elected. It was really quite strange, in a wonderful way.  As Lindsey's Oconee County GOP Chairperson I watched as life-long Democrats switched parties to vote for him in a very hard-fought primary.  People who never planned to ever ...   more »
View Article  Deport 'Em All - Even the Gold Medal Winners?
THOSE PESKY ANCHOR BABIES!
"...They all wore or waved American flags, an entire family decked in the stars and stripes. A family that started with illegal immigrants and advanced to right here, this moment, their very own gold medalist resting in their lap. “Only in America,” Cejudo said...."

One of the nastiest aspects of this whole anti-immigration fervor that has swept certain denizens of the far right is the demand that "birth right" citizenship be stripped from "Anchor Babies".  If this is true, what do they plan to do with Henry Cejudo?  He is the son of undocumented immigrants.  Are ...   more »

JUST THE CRUMBS
Jesus left that place and went away to the district of Tyre and Sidon. Just then a Canaanite woman from that region came out and started shouting, ‘Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David; my daughter is tormented by a demon.’ But he did not answer her at all. And his disciples came and urged him, saying, ‘Send her away, for she keeps shouting after us.’ He answered, ‘I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.’ But she came and knelt before him, saying, ‘Lord, help me.’ He answered, ...   more »

MY VENDETTA RIDE

A well known conspiracy-theory writer, Michael Piper Collins took offense to a piece I wrote about Jerome Corsi.  I cited and did a copy/paste of an SPLC entry about Jerome Corsi appearing on The Political Cesspool.  The paragraphs I cited are below:
"...Perhaps Corsi’s most telling appearance, however, has been on The Political Cesspool, an overtly racist, anti-Semitic radio show hosted by self-avowed white nationalist James Edwards. Corsi was interviewed on the Cesspool on July 20 and is scheduled to appear again this Sunday, August 17, joining a recent guest roster that has included Christian Identity pastor ...   more »

THE DEATH OF HUMANITY
Imagine being in a system where you are assigned an upper bunk, but are dying from cancer, and need to be assisted to get up and down three times a day for a head count.  Imagine not being allowed to have pain killers for the cancer that had invaded your spine because you were too sick to go stand in line for them to be given to you.    Imagine losing well over 100 pounds, going for help and being told you were faking. Imagine not being able to talk to your lawyer because you were too ...   more »

A DESERVED SLAP IN THE FACE!

I love politics.  I love this country.  I have a tremendous amount of respect for the American People.  You can only con them for so long, then they smarten up enough at arrogance and thumb their nose.  People get voted into office and they get voted out.  Then there are some who are so durn ______ (deleted) but are smart enough to read the righting on the wall and get the heck out of Dodge before it it is too late.  Yes, I am mixing metaphors, and indulging in the pathetic art of the ...   more »

RUSSELL PEARCE & HIS NAZI FRIENDS

The only people who are being fooled by the anti-McCain dregs of the GOP in Maricopa County are some our good conservatives who will follow anything that calls itself conservative, even if it has the rank odor of a rotting corpse. It's one thing to go after the GOP if you are a Democrat, simply on nasty politics, that's the name of the game. When conservatives who have made their home in the GOP like a bunch of maggots they are give the party a bad name, it's time to clean house.

View Article  Deporting Illegals or Importing Islamic Holidays?
HAVING IT BOTH WAYS?

Are anti-immigration hard-liners even self-aware?  Do they realize what a mockery they are making of the Constitution and Bill of Rights let alone themselves?  So they want all the illegals who are doing “jobs no one wants to do” deported. Allegedly there are no jobs American’s don’t want to do, ergo we don't need immigrants, legal or illegal.  Conservatives cheered when the evil illegal Hispanic immigrants were rounded-up like cattle and treated to sub-human and completely unconstitutional activities.  After all, they are evil Hispanics.  Right. 

Nature abhors a vacuum. Now we learn that those 400 ...   more »
View Article  Federation for American Immigration Reform Against Free Speech!
SO MUCH FOR THE 1ST AMENDMENT!

There are more than a few of us who have been waiting for FAIR to finally take a mis-step.  Maybe they have and maybe they haven't.  In a recent press release, The Federation for American Immigration Reform is now calling on the prosecution of a member of Congress for saying something FAIR doesn't like.  (From the Stein Report).

Once upon a time the United States was a Republic.  We had a little piece of paper called the Bill of Rights.  We had a Constitution and specific amendments to said Constitution.   We cherished ...   more »

MORE MARICOPA MADNESS

We are now learning that just everyone wants a Russell Pearce (friend and lover of Neo-Nazis everywhere) yard sign.  Don't you, I know I sure can't wait, even though there is a waiting list. Evidently they are lining up in Maricopa County to get their little friends of the Nazis signs.  Isn't that special?

Did you know if you practice your right to freedom of protest in Maricopa County and go against the good Sheriff Joe (Arizona's own answer to the Sheriff of Notthingham) you are subject to harassment (to say the least).  It doesn't ...   more »
View Article  How Extreme Environmentalist Liberals Hijacked the Conservative Agenda Part II

HOW TO RUIN THE GOP

Have you ever felt like you’ve duped or played for a fool?  What about that old adage, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me?  Well, conservatives have been played for fools, there is no other way to put it, by extreme environmentalists and anti-capitalist liberals determined to limit the population of the United States in order to save the planet.  

The very real problem is conservatives have done such a good job of damning ALL liberal organizations that the honorable ones are thrown out with the scurrilous ones. And, ...   more »
View Article  The Radical Green Roots of Anti-Immigration - Part I
THE HISTORICAL ROOTS OF POPULATION CONTROL

ON of the great false-hoods of immigration reform is that it is a conservative entity.  Nothing could be farther from the truth.  Instead of having roots in conservative thought, it stems, instead, directly from Marxism.  It is all about population control and eugenics, and is directly contrary to the very concept of the Republican Party.  Part I of this series deals with the evolution of the individual, the role of the value of the one, to the devalue of the individual through collectivism.  Through this collectivism came the modern liberal and through the modern ...   more »

ENTERTAINMENT OR AN AGENDA?
This week Human Events is honoring Rush Limbaugh. Mark Levin has a Human Events column that can only be described as nothing but abject fawning, gushing, and outright worship.  I am fully aware of Limbaugh’s good points.  He is well known for his charitable work, and he donates a tremendous amount of money to very worth-while causes.  He is one of the single largest donors to leukemia research.  For that, I am personally grateful.  His donations may have been the tipping point in the medical research that is keeping my cousin Jim alive (and maybe even ...   more »

THEY WILL NEVER LEARN!

How long is it going to take for Republicans to figure out that they are REPUBLICANS FIRST and conservatives second?  Let's face it, the reason the GOP looks so bad and the reasons our candidates have been on this wonderful losing spree is because they were so darn busy pandering to hard line non Republican conservatives.  There are any number of special interests out there who are conservative.  I'm a "normal" conservative, but I am a Republican first.  Maybe that's the term we need "normal" conservative as opposed to Reagan Revisionist Conservatives who wax poetic about ...   more »

SOMETHING IS WRONG HERE

Don’t get me wrong.  If I were Danielle Bologna I would probably have already figured out a way to end my own life.   The only thing that would keep me alive would be the fact that I had two other children.  The woman is appearing on FOX, hysterical, crying, demanding an end to illegal immigration.  She has refused to go back into the home she shared with her husband of nearly 3 decades.  Grief is grief, but something isn't quite right here. The woman is playing to the media.  When she goes on FOX, her make-up ...   more »

DIFFERENT STORY?

If Luis Ramirez were an illegal immigrant who was part of a party of wild animals who beat a father to death, you would be hearing about it from Malkin and cover to cover on O'Reilly.  Unfortunately, Luis Ramirez, an illegal immigrant is the man who died.  He was brutally attacked and beaten to death by a group of high school football players in Shenandoah, Pennsylvania.  They attacked him like a pack of wild animals, cursing him and telling him to to back to Mexico. 

Evidently in Pennsylvania it is acceptable to murder illegal immigrants. According to the ...   more »

FLINGING A LITTLE MUD

The Sierra Vista Herald has a fascinating little article about Chris Simcox, Carmen Mercer and the Minuteman Fence. Evidently our erstwhile heroes are still trying to raise money to build their precious fence.  My first question:  If Michael Chertoff is determined to bulldoze the Constitution and erect his little fence, why are the Minutemen, et al still bilking people out of their hard earned cash?
"...Jim Campbell, a man who mortgaged his house to donate $100,000 to the Minuteman fence project in 2006, filed a suit against the group for fraud and breach of contract in ...   more »

"...I was finding that prayer helped. It wasn't a question of asking for superhuman strength or for God to strike the North Vietnamese dead.

I was sustained in many times of trial...."John McCain

MALKIN, TANTON & PLANNED PARENTHOOD
This morning, I discovered a fascinating comment concerning the article I posted about Malkin and LaRaza.
"I post on Michelles' blog on a regular basis and I am becoming very concerned about the level of anti-hispanic hatemongering that I see displayed there by both the hostess and some of her responders. Her hatred of John McCain and her willingness to derail his campaign is simply an extension of this.

It truly seems as though Ms. Malkin has lost all sense of proportion.

Her blog has been overrun by Paulians, supremacists, and freaks who are into ...   more »

ONLY IN AMERICA?

Townhall is becoming the last, best refuge for scoundrels and racists.  A few weeks ago we were treated to Pat Buchanan's lovely little explanation of why Hitler did cause the Holocaust.  Now, we are going to be subjected to Michelle Malkin's own personal version of Luther's 99 Thesis - Against LaRaza.  How long are good and decent people going to put up with this sort of blatant anti-Hispanic bias?  I guess as long as good people sit on one hand and keep the other over their mouths, people like Malkin can get away with the same sort ...   more »
