THE PINK FLAMINGO RECOMMENDS
View Article  Why Is There No REAL GOP Leadership in the House?
HOUSE REPUBLICANS ARE AN EMBARRASSMENT!

Novak has a Townhall piece today that is basically humiliating in nature for the GOP.  Nancy Pelosi has run rough-shod over them for nearly 2 years and they’ve basically surrendered.
Flap is covering Newt Gingrich’s cry in the darkness.
…Nine Acts of Real Change That Could Restore the GOP Brand

Here are nine acts of real change that would begin to rebuild the American people's confidence that Republicans share their values, understand their worries, and are prepared to act instead of just talk. The Republicans in Congress could get a start on all nine ...   more »
View Article  Another Pink Flamingo I Told You So – It’s the Narco-War – Not Immigration
ARE CHAVEZ, FARC INVOLVED IN MEXICO
If you think illegal immigration is bad now, just wait.  If what I think is happening, we are in for a massive tide of illegal immigration – refugees fleeing the growing narco-war in Mexico.   This is a war, perhaps involving Hugo Chavez, the FARC, and his plans to undermine Mexico and bring terror to the border.  

Our precious little conservatives, who are pandering to hard-line racists who have nothing to do with the GOP are diverting money that needs to go into the fight against narco-terror.  That is what it is.  Wait, ...   more »

THIS WEEK’S IMMIGRATION NEWS
They are now called Juan Crow Laws.

I have a real problem here.  I am noticing a growing trend within conservative (extreme, not Republican) blog ranks to classify La Raza as racist.  Along with that, there seems to be this under tone that maybe Hispanics are less than acceptable.  Or, if they are, we’re talking “OUR” Hispanics and the other (UPPITY) Hispanics.  Let’s face some very nasty facts here.  The same individuals who fought against the Civil Rights reforms and integration in the Sixties are the very ones helping to promote hard-line immigration reform.  Does ...   more »

THE HISPANIC REPUBLICAN VOTE
Rubin Navarrette has a PJ Media piece about the Mexican flag.  There is a double standard.  Anything Mexican is bad – evil, evidently.
“…The point is, a lot of Americans look at anyone who waves a Mexican flag as secretly planning to take over the Southwest and hand it to Mexico. But they don’t suggest that anyone waving the Israeli flag - or the Irish flag, or the Italian flag or whatever - has something similar up his sleeve. In those cases, most people are likely to think that the display is harmless and that all ...   more »

THIS IS BIASED - THIS IS RACISM
I want to tell you about a story I heard today.  I am not telling who told it to me.  The man is Hispanic.  His family has been in New Mexico since the Conquistadors.  THEY ARE REPUBLICAN.  They have served in the military.  They vote.  They go to church, have jobs, and contribute to society.  Unfortunately, my friend’s sister cannot find her birth certificate.  She has lost her baptismal certificate.  The state of New Mexico declares she was never born.  She has a Social Security # and is receiving it.  She has her ...   more »

Does this offend you?  If it does, I suggest you join your little friends at Stormfront, or go flush some of your hard earned money down the coffers of any one of the minutemen groups.  I also suggest you sit back, and breathe.  There....in, out.  Now sneeze. (wait, that's me).  Think back on all the tales you remember - of Ronald Reagan's campaign.  Think about all the GOP POTUS campaigns since then - and you might discover (if yo are willing to look) that EVERY Republican nominee for President of the ...   more »

THE 'TRUE' CONSERVATIVE AGENDA
From Border Fire Report (for what it’s worth)

I keep telling you there are many conservatives who are not Republican.  These are the individuals who have been doing all the agitating – and we’re not talking Ron Paul Bots.  There is a division in the conservative ranks between libertarians, Constitution, and the new conservative party.  The problem is these are the yahoos who basically cost the GOP the majority in the House and Senate in 2006.  If we aren't careful and marginalize them, this will happen, once again, and could cost John McCain the election.  They ...   more »

JUDICIAL WATCH GOES AFTER BIG MAC
I’m not a fan of Judicial Watch.  I think it is a crock.  As if to prove my point, that my theory that certain conservatives are going to do all they can to ruin the man, Judicial Watch  pops up and files a FEC Complaint against John McCain.
“…“Recent news reports suggest that Sen. John McCain and John McCain for President may have accepted an in-kind contribution from foreign nationals Lord Rothschild OM GBE and the Hon. Nathaniel Rothschild of Great Britain in contravention of federal election laws,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton wrote ...   more »

MALKIN’S HATRED OF JOHN MCCAIN

When Aristotle defined hubris, he may have been thinking of Michelle Malkin.
"...Aristotle defined hubris as follows: to cause shame to the victim, not in order that anything may happen to you, nor because anything has happened to you, but merely for your own gratification. Hubris is not the requital of past injuries; this is revenge. As for the pleasure in hubris, its cause is this: men think that by ill-treating others they make their own superiority the greater...."

Why does Michelle Malkin hate John McCain so much?  We know she supports his military ...   more »

NOTE:  I was planning to a piece on the FLDS (I have some new information) but was side-tracked by this story.  I think this is something that needs to be told.  I know I am telling it one-sided, against the Minutemen in California.  But what I have found is so repulsive and so vile it needs to be exposed to the light of day.  It is obvious someone is going to cross the line one of these days and shots are going to be fired.  I have a feeling it will be a Minuteman or one ...   more »

COULD IT BE – IMMIGRATION?

Earlier today I spoke to our local Women’s Republican group, delivering what amounted to a partial doom and gloom prediction.  While the talk was primarily about the various blogs for John McCain, I said the following:
The implications for the GOP could be disastrous if we do not change our ways and modernize our way of thinking.  This is precisely what a group of us are attempting to do.  If we cannot get the rank and file every day members of the Republican Party to perhaps re-think the wheel a little, I am afraid we ...   more »

“…So much for my speech. The struggle, I fear, is just getting started. Both our Mayor and Police Chief have challenged the Sheriff. Religious leaders, myself included, will soon be publishing an open letter in the paper, legal challenges will be mounted. No matter what your views on immigration or your ideas on how to solve this immensely complex problem, the Sheriff's heavy-handed intimidation is not the way. I hope that you will join with me and others in the religious community who are doing their best to balance the laws of our country ...   more »

ANTI-CATHOLIC SENTIMENT SURFACES

I think by now any thinking person knows the Puppetmaster, John Tanton, is very anti-Catholic.  Somehow I don’t think he is very happy with the visit of the Holy Father.  So, he has sent his little minions of darkness out to try and ratchet up anti-immigration sentiment based on anti-Catholic bias.  The man uses bias and ‘hate’ as his tools of the trade. His minions adopt his values and his tone.  The result – well, you be the judge.  I think we  now know Tom Tancredo and Michelle Malkin are two of his little flunkies.  I think ...   more »

For your edification, I have provide a bunch o’ immigration links.  I think the theme here is the possibility that people are starting to pay attention to the various and sundry outrageous committed by the various and sundry anti-immigration organization and political entities throughout the civilized world.    Then there is Sheriff Joe and those nasty illegals (maybe).

HOW MUCH LONGER?

How much longer with people in Maricopa County continue to put up with this man and his racist incompetence and virulent vendettas? The man that many misguided conservatives worship as Mr. Law & Order is nothing but a tinplated dictator with delusions of godhood. (Sorry, I stole it from Star Trek).  Every week something pops up to simply reinforce this image.  Jon Garrido, an confessed Hillary supporter, has been doing some excellent digging into the Maricopa Kounty Keystone Kops and has come up with some very interesting information.

Yes, it's that time again - time for a ...   more »

KEEPING AMERICA WHITE

Last night on his show, Sean Hannity profiled several young women who discovered that Planned Parenthood doesn’t mind taking donations to promote abortions within the Black community.  This started me thinking about John Tanton and his anti-Hispanic eugenic ties. Is there a connection?  Is it possible that the ultra liberal Planned Parenthood is nothing but a tool for racial cleansing and “keeping America white?”

Maybe it is stretching a little, but when you consider the usual suspects and the agenda, it sure looks like all this is part of an agenda.  And the agenda sure looks like ...   more »

Look, just color me cynical.  I’m worried.  Things are WAY too good for John McCain right now.  If this were October, I would be a very happy person.  Unfortunately this is March.  What goes up must come down, unless…. Something like this occurs:  Condi may be interested in the VP spot.

The Phoenix from Phoenix?   Unfortunately it is too early and there are too many anti-McCain conservatives and way too many NON REPUBLICAN anti-immigration nativists who will do just about anything to throw a monkey wrench into the machinery.

TRUTH OR FICTION?

Anti-immigration Nativists are holding a wake for the much heralded Border Fence in Cochise County.  First, it would be nice if some of these Nativists would ACTUALLY VISIT Cochise County and spent a little time there talking to someone other than the inmates at the OK Café, or the few anti-immigration neo-fascists who actually reside in Cochise County. Case in point is the mourning for the Border Fence, that a Cochise County rancher has pronounced DOA.  It is tragic.  So sad.  But – the problem is John Ladd, rancher is question, is one of the very few ...   more »

IS THERE A DIFFERENCE?
Kyle-Anne Shriver has delivered with yet another hard-hitting American Thinker piece.  She basically mentions the fact that her grandmother always mentioned that you are known by the company you keep. My grandmother Froehlich had her own version, “If you lie down with dogs you wake up with fleas.”  Both versions work.  

The real problem is while conservatives are castigating Barack Obama for his association and pathetic ‘denunciation’ of Jeremiah Wright, they are ignoring their own little problem.  Months ago, when Sam Brownback began his failed Presidential campaign, he ran on a hard-line anti-immigration platform.  Several ...   more »

HOW TO DESTROY A PARTY

I’m sorry, but I am using the word “STUPID”.  You ought to be thankful it is Lent and I’ve given up the use of profanity.  Hard line anti-immigration candidates are LOSERS!  They lose.  Get it?  L-0-S-E.  

I’ve been accused recently of not being of sound moral of political mentality.  I’ve also been accused of being insulting.  Frankly, if I thought simple insults could force anti-immigration Republicans to come to their senses before they destroy any more of our majority, I would do so.  Unfortunately, I don’t think that will work.  Right now, I don’t ...   more »

Just when you thought it was safe to turn on the television, we discover Lou Dobbs is on the move.
