Why on earth should our President have to explain anything to these Latino groups? It is against the law to enter this country illegally and no one has a right to steal jobs or social services from the American people! What gall! I just wish these new groups would go away!

Go ICE and continue with illegal immigration raids and check points. The American people deserve justice!

And while you are discussing things place E-verify in the stimulus package.

All of those issues discussed are not unique to Latinos. They affect all AMERICANS. Want to get problems solved? WORK TOGETHER!

Special interest groups such as those mentioned are always crying out that they want to be treated equally, yet they divide themselves from the rest of America because they are only looking out for THEIR best interests.

Will the Obama administration also meet with groups that are fighting for unemployed Americans of ALL racial backgrounds, such as NumbersUSA?

Obama keeps saying he wants to create 3-4 million new jobs through the stimulus plan (created with OUR tax dollars).

Well if he is honest, then he will back off his pledge of “comprehensive immigration reform” which we all know means amnesty for millions of illegal foreign workers.

Americans, if they do not get off their collective butts, are going to lose their jobs, and quality of life to illegal aliens supported by racist ethnic interest groups, which are themselves supported by your local representatives, with your own tax dollars. WAKE UP OR PAY THE CONSEQUENCES. NO ONE IS LOOKING OUT FOR THE AMERICAN CITIZENRY. NO ONE. THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION IS LOOKING OUT FOR ILLEGAL ALIEN FOREIGN NATIONALS HOWEVER.

I have been wondering about why Whites are racists, and no other race is. Proud to be White Michael Richards makes his point… Michael Richards, better known as Kramer from TVs Seinfeld, does make a good point.

This was his defence speech in court after making racial comments in his comedy act. He makes some very interesting points…. Someone finally said it… How many are actually paying attention to this?

There are African Americans, Mexican Americans, Asian Americans, Arab Americans, etc. And then there are just Americans.

You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.

You call me White boy, Cracker, ******, Whitey, Caveman … and that’s OK.

But when I call you, ******, ****, Towel head, Sand-******, Camel Jockey, Beaner, Gook, or Chink …

You call me a racist.

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you… so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?

You have the United Negro College Fund. You have Martin Luther King Day. You have Black History Month. You have Cesar Chavez Day. You have Yom Hashoah. You have Ma’uled Al-Nabi. You have the NAACP. You have BET…

If we had WET (White Entertainment Television), we’d be racists. If we had a White Pride Day, you would call us racists. If we had White History Month, we’d be racists. If we had any organization for only whites to ‘advance’ OUR , lives we’d be racists.

We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of Commerce, and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce. Wonder who pays for all that??

A white woman could not be in the Miss Black American pageant, but any colour can be in the Miss America pageant..

If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships… You know we’d be racists. There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the US. Yet if there were ‘White colleges’ that would be a racist college.

In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights, you would call us racists.

You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you’re not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.

You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white police officer shoots a black gang member or beats up a black drug-dealer running from the law and posing a threat to society, you call him a racist.

I am proud… But you call me a racist. Why is it that only whites can be racists?

There is nothing improper about this e-mail. Let’s see which of you are proud enough to send it on. I sadly don’t think many will.

Quote Illni Sky: “Special interest groups such as those mentioned are always crying out that they want to be treated equally, yet they divide themselves from the rest of America because they are only looking out for THEIR best interests. You are either an American or you’re not.” Wonderful post and have you noticed how those divisive special interest groups will cry racism at any person or group who ask that the sovereignty of our USA be honored and our laws be enforced and upheld. We must be truly united for us save our United States of America.

All must heed your post’s accurate summation: “You are either an American or you’re not.

I’d like to share a little lighthearted item a long time friend sent me:

IS THIS A GREAT BARNYARD OR WHAT?

“The little red hen called all of her Democrat neighbors together and said, “If we plant this wheat, we shall have bread to eat. Who will help me plant it?”

“Not I,” said the cow.

“Not I,” said the duck.

“Not I,” said the pig.

“Not I,” said the goose.

“Then I will do it by myself,” said the little red hen, and so she did. The wheat grew very tall and ripened into golden grain.

“Who will help me reap my wheat?” asked the little red hen.

“Not I,” said the duck.

“Out of my classification,” said the pig.

“I’d lose my seniority,” said the cow.

“I’d lose my unemployment compensation,” said the goose.

“Then I will do it by myself,” said the little red hen, and so she did.

At last it came time to bake the bread.

“Who will help me bake the bread?” asked the little red hen.

“That would be overtime for me,” said the cow.

“I’d lose my welfare benefits,” said the duck.

“I’m a dropout and never learned how,” said the pig.

“If I’m to be the only helper, that’s discrimination,” said the goose.

“Then I will do it by myself,” said the little red hen.

She baked five loaves and held them up for all of her neighbors to see.

They wanted some and, in fact, demanded a share.

But the little red hen said, “No, I shall eat all five loaves.”

“Excess profits!” cried the cow. (Nancy Pelosi)

“Capitalist leech!” screamed the duck. (Barbara Boxer)

“I demand equal rights!” yelled the goose. (Jesse Jackson)

The pig just grunted in disdain. (Ted Kennedy)

And they all painted ‘Unfair!’ picket signs and marched around and around the little red hen, shouting obscenities.

Then the farmer (Obama) came. He said to the little red hen, “You must not be so greedy.”

“But I earned the bread,” said the little red hen.

“Exactly,” said Barack the farmer. “That is what makes our free enterprise system so wonderful. Anyone in the barnyard can earn as much as he wants. But under our modern government regulations, the productive workers must divide the fruits of their labor with those who are lazy and idle.”

And they all lived happily ever after, including the little red hen, who smiled and clucked, “I am grateful, for now I truly understand.”

But her neighbors became quite disappointed in her. She never again baked bread because she joined the ‘party’ and got her bread free. And all the Democrats smiled. ‘Fairness’ had been established.

Individual initiative had died, but nobody noticed; perhaps no one cared…so long as there was free bread that ‘the rich’ were paying for.

EPILOGUE

Bill Clinton is getting $12 million for his memoirs.

Hillary got $8 million for hers.

That’s $20 million for the memories from two people, who for eight years, repeatedly testified, under oath, that they couldn’t remember anything.

ATTENTION ALL AMERICANS!!!

PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO FRIENDS, RELATIVES, AND INTERESTED ACQUAINTANCES!!!

OBAMA PROMISED US THAT HE WAS GOING TO CRACK DOWN ON EMPLOYERS OF ILLEGALS!!

INSTEAD, OBAMA, AND THE DEMOCRATS, STRIPPED E-VERIFY FROM THE STIMULUS BILL!!

OBAMA LIED TO ALL AMERICANS!!!

DO NOT ALLOW OBAMA, AND THE DEMOCRATS, TO ELIMINATE E-VERIFY!!

E-VERIFY PREVENTS ILLEGALS FROM ILLEGALLY OBTAINING JOBS THAT BELONG TO AMERICANS!!

It is known that approximately 8.7 miillion illegals now hold jobs, within our United States, that they illegally obtained, using forged, and/or stolen ******. It is against our laws for an illegal to be employed, by anyone, anywhere, within our United States.

These are jobs that Americans will do. Jobs in construction, manufacturing, and food processing.

E-Verify will give these jobs back to unemployed American citizens.

The current unemployment rate among blacks is 12.6%

Blacks suffer the most from the many millions of illegals competing for the same jobs

In the last 22 years, since the Reagan one-time amnesty, over 26 million illegals have been apprehended, after they crossed the border into our United States.

UNITED STATES BORDER APPREHENSIONS (Source DHS/CBP) 1987—1,190,488———1995—1,394,554———2003——931,557 1988—1,008,145———1996—1,649,986———2004—1,160,395 1989——954,243———1997—1,412,953———2005—1,189,075 1990—1,169,939———1998—1,555,776———2006—1,089,902 1991—1,197,875———1999—1,579,010———2007——876,704 1992—1,258,482———2000—1,676,438———2008——723,825 1993—1,327,259———2001—1,266,213———2009—— 1994—1,094,717———2002——955,310

However, less than 1, out of 4, illegals, crossing into our United States, are estimated to have been apprehended.

Lack of E-verify in the Stimulus Bill only entices even more illegals to enter our country!!

E-Verify will rectify this problem, but first, it needs to be enacted.

There are now 11.6 million unemployed American citizens, and that number is growing.

WE CANNOT ALLOW ILLEGALS TO TAKE, OR RETAIN, JOBS, THAT RIGHTFULLY BELONG TO UNEMPLOYED AMERICANS.

TAKE MATTERS INTO YOUR OWN HANDS AMERICANS!

BOYCOTT, PICKET, AND REPORT, ANY BUSINESS EMPLOYING ILLEGALS!!!

REPORTILLEGALS.COM - (866) 347-2423

TELL YOUR DEMOCRAT SENATORS, AND DEMOCRAT REPRESENTATIVE, TO:

MANDATE E-VERIFY FOR ALL EMPLOYERS, AND ALL EMPLOYEES, NOW!!!

OR ELSE!!

STOP THE DEMOCRATS FROM ENTICING EVEN MORE ILLEGALS TO INVADE OUR COUNTRY!!!

Fred, your post is so true. Do you know why it is so true? Because it proves a point that so many, let us say “white” people in the U.S. don’t get,which is the following—-CHARGING WHITE FOLKS WITH RACISM “WORKS”. IT “WORKS” FOR THE ACCUSER, IN THE U.S., ANYWAY. IT WORKS IN EVERY SITUATION YOU CARE TO MENTION. IT IS PROFITABLE. Yet, so many “white” people are so utterly clueless that they are being bound and gagged in their freedom of speech and in their rights.

P.S. Any leftist fool, who has read this post and accuses me of racism, is 1)Missing the point, or 2)Still playing their old game of trying to win the argument by accusations of racism. My advice to you is GROW UP.

Hey fools. This article is about Obama meeting with Latino community leaders. Your hate and racism is blinding you to the fact that NOT ALL LATINO ISSUES have to do with immigration. And even if they are discussing immigration, so what? You seem like some very unhappy and troubled and fearful people to me.

Why special interest groups? Because there exist irrational people like you who hate at the drop of a hat, mix up “latino” with “alien” and cluster on comment threads to spread your pointed and vile bile. So we need to stick together. Why special interest groups? Because we are the ones being hunted and singled out by freaks like you. That’s why.

Oh, all Latinos are illegal immigrants? Wow. Here I thought that being born in the U.S. made me a citizen.

Too many of the comments to this article seem to think that immigration is the only issue cared about by Latinos. And that all Latinos must be “illegal.”

And too many of these comments grossly oversimplify Obama’s views. I believe I remember him hosting a group of Republican congressmen at the White House one night. Now he hosted a group of Latino leaders. It seems pretty clear that he’s just making an effort to hear the perspectives of numerous groups.

Now here’s a thought … . If you are ready for the adventure of a lifetime, try this: a.. Go to Pakistan , Afghanistan or Iraq illegally. Never mind immigration quotas, visas, international law, or any of that nonsense. b. Once there, demand that the local government provide free medical care for you and your entire family. c. Demand that all nurses and doctors be fluent in English, and that all food be cooked according to your special specifications in the hospital. d. Demand free local government forms, bulletins, etc. be printed in English. e.. Procreate abundantly. f.. Deflect any crit icism of this allegedly irresponsible reproductive behaviour with, ‘It is a cultural thing; you wouldn’t understand.’ g.. Keep your original identity strong. Fly your previous country’s national flag from your rooftop, or proudly display it in your front window, or on your car bumper. h.. Speak only English at home and in public, and make sure that your children do likewise. i.. Demand classes on English culture in the Muslim school system. j.. Demand a local country driver license or national insurance number equivalent k…. This will afford other legal rights and will go far to legitimise your unauthorised, illegal, presence in Pakistan , Afghanistan or Iraq l.. Drive around with no motor, tax or insurance and ignore local traffic laws. m.. Insist that local country law enforcement teaches English to all its officers… n.. Organise protest marches against your host country, inciting violence against non-white, non-Christians, and the government that let you in. Good luck! You’ll soon be dead. It would never happen in Pakistan , Afghanistan or Iraq (or any other country in the world for that matter) except in the UK, US, Canada or Australia, because we are run by soft, politically correct politicians that are too scared to ‘offend’ anyone.

Quote William Free: “Yes we need to legalized the illegal population. They will pay fine, they will pay tax they will become more buying power, create jobs, revenue.” Criminal behavior mustn’t be rewarded in any way. Illegal Aliens have already proved to us that they haven’t any intent on playing by the rules. They’ve entered our USA illegally violating Americas sovereignty and ignoring our immigration laws. You claim they’re now willing to pay fines and be our pals because suddenly they’ve had a moral epiphany?

What a load of lib-bot propaganda, are you just ignorant or are you a paid La Raza propagandist who’s just ignorant of right and wrong? It’s wrong for Illegal Aliens to expect to be accepted by American citizens after exhibiting a complete distain for our established laws, rules and regulations.

No amnesty, no sanctuary, no do overs for Illegal Aliens. Just an exit for them to leave through and don’t let the gate spank your buns while exiting. If our economy collapses Illegal Aliens may get buried under the economic rubble and ruin. Leave now Illegal Aliens and feel the love, you’ve overstayed your visit, time’s up.

No one knows who these people are with all of their illegal status, every one including American citizens, needs to be asked for their status so these illegal immigrants, or other Hispanics, will no cry racial profiling!! everything they do, are being so ignored, this is sicking, and American citizens are tired of it.. everything has to be racial to illegal immigrants because their status is not excepted. it is not a racist thing, it another country conquering America in their own sneaky way!!!!

I say Mexico because over 90% are from Mexico(lets call it what it is)and the Bingo babys as one put it shouldn’t be citizens but for the fact that the parents criminal acts they wouldn’t be here at all. The fact is they are here and our country will not enforce our own laws. I say deport them all and you get the right ones. you don’t care about our rights why should we care about yours

President Obama said he wants to:

Quote:
“bringing people “out of the shadows” by supporting “a system that allows undocumented immigrants who are in good standing to pay a fine, learn English, and go to the back of the line for the opportunity to become citizens.””

With more and more Americans losing their jobs every day and all Americans struggling to keep up with home mortgages and keep food on the table we’re watching our President rant on about increased spending of trillions of our tax dollars on Obamanation boondoggles. Obama promised a better life for Americans through “hope n’ change” and now we found out he lied.

The “hope n’ change” Obama promised is we hope to keep our homes with the chump change left in our pockets after the TaxMan confiscated our earnings to support the socialist agenda of Obamanomics. Obama Lied, Our Economy Died..

There are a few politicians who are on the side of what’s right for our USA and what’s good for all taxpaying American citizens.

75 in Congress Demand No Stimulus for Illegals

Tuesday, March 10, 2009 5:49 PM By: David A. Patten

‘Seventy-five members of Congress asked House leaders on Tuesday to shut down a loophole allowing billions in economic stimulus funds to go to some 300,000 construction workers who are in the country illegally. “I believe that this figure may be low,” Rep. Cliff Stearns, R-Fla., tells Newsmax. Stearns adds, “We owe it to the American workers and to American taxpayers to ensure that their money does not go to employ workers in our country illegally.”’

‘The House version of the $787 billion stimulus package signed by President Obama included a requirement that the legal residency of all employees hired through stimulus spending be verified. As Newsmax reported Monday, that provision was mysteriously stripped from the legislation before it went to the conference committee that reconciled the House and Senate versions of the legislation.’

‘On Tuesday, 75 representatives from both sides of the aisle sent a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Minority Leader John Boehner, urging them “to protect taxpayers and legal workers by including these critical jobs protection provisions in any future economic recovery legislation.”’

‘Steven Camarota, director of research for the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), agrees with Rep. Stearns that the actual number of illegals hired by the stimulus funds may be much higher. That’s because the 300,000 figure applies only to the construction portion of the $787 billion stimulus package. Spending in that sector is expected to generate about 2 million jobs, and illegal workers comprise about 15 percent of the construction workforce. At least another 1 million non-construction jobs are expected to be generated by stimulus spending. Because about 5 percent of the overall U.S. workforce consists of illegal workers, that would be another 50,000 jobs that “could be” going to illegals, Camarota tells Newsmax.’

‘The economic impact of hiring illegals clearly runs counter to the objectives of the stimulus, experts agree. That’s because each year, illegal workers send tens of billions of dollars earned in the United States to their home countries in the form of “remittances.”’

‘“The fact that illegal aliens send a substantial portion of their earnings abroad reduces the stimulus effect that their employment has inside the United States,” says Robert Rector, senior research fellow with the Heritage Foundation. He adds, “It’s outrageous that in a bill designed to provide employment for Americans, Congress has deliberately chosen to allow jobs to be given to illegal immigrants.”’

‘It remains unclear who scrubbed the verification provision from the House-Senate compromise bill. Pelosi, Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid, and President Obama are three possibilities who have been mentioned. “It was somebody high up in the Democratic Party,” Rector tells Newsmax. “We don’t know who it was beyond that.” A marriage of convenience between pro-immigrant lobbyists and businesses seeking cheap labor helped torpedo the verification requirement.’

‘Rector says eliminating verification without a public debate on the matter simply reflects the way the overall legislation was pushed through Congress. “The stimulus bill was the worst case of special-interest lobbying and secrecy that I have seen in Washington in a quarter of a century,” he says. “It was very clear that they rushed that bill through as rapidly as they possibly could because they did not want the American public to understand what was in the so-called stimulus bill.”’

‘The oversight is beginning to draw fire from other quarters as well. In North Carolina, state legislators have introduced legislation that would require all state contractors receiving federal funds to verify workers’ residency.’

‘Some commentators are protesting the stimulus loophole as well. CNN’s curmudgeonly Jack Cafferty, for example, remarked with his characteristic vim: “This recession/depression isn’t that bad and unemployment is only at 8.1 percent and we’ve only lost 4.4 million jobs in the last 15 months. What’s wrong with giving a few hundred thousand jobs away to people who shouldn’t even be in the country in the first place? This is your government at work.”’

Anyone to promotes the enrichment of 21st century slavemasters off of Illegal Aliens labor is an outrageous bigot who seeks to destroy our working conditions that American labor has worked very long and hard for.

You DavidTheUnpatriotic and those like you, by your support of the criminal invasion of Illegal Aliens are facilitating our USA’s further financial collapse and that will cause more economic hardship for taxpaying American citizens. Patriotic Americans aren’t bigots for wanting a brighter future for their families and those who support the Illegal Alien Invasion aren’t patriots.

Illegal Immigration is a Crime

Under Title 8 Section 1325 of the U.S. Code, “Improper Entry by Alien,” any citizen of any country other than the United States who:

* Enters or attempts to enter the United States at any time or place other than as designated by immigration officers; or
* Eludes examination or inspection by immigration officers; or
* Attempts to enter or obtains entry to the United States by a willfully false or misleading representation or the willful concealment of a material fact;

has committed a federal crime.

Violations are punishable by criminal fines and imprisonment for up to six months. Repeat offenses can bring up to two years in prison. Additional civil fines may be imposed at the discretion of immigration judges, but civil fines do not negate the criminal sanctions or nature of the offense.

I am so sick of our President and other law makers no wanting to enforce our immigration laws already on the books, it just makes me sick how they are able to use all of their strategies, and loopholes, and excuses, to ignore all illegal aliens wrongdoings in America! And try and make them out of law abiding people in America, millions of these people are some kind of criminals, and had fled to America to hide them selves in the interior of America, these are murders, attempted murders and other crimes,even our employers do not give them any background checks before they hire them, they don’t know who these illegal aliens really are, they hired,they just slip through the system of America with out any kind of security, screening, fingerprinting, background checks, immunizations, nothing compared to what any American would have to go through when going to their country Mexico are any other countries.

Our politicians always say that illegal aliens are humans and that they have human rights in America, and our politicians tend to always cry about illegal aliens American dreams, about want they want for their families in America.

At the very same time they tend to have forgotten that Americans are also humans, and they to have the American dreams, and the American dreams for their families also, so far their dream has been put on the back burners,the majority of legal and illegal aliens do have Americans employment, they are taking millions of employment from Americans, because this compassion of illegal aliens and their children, many of our politicians tend to ignore all of this, they try and focus on how much America need illegal aliens, this is a bunch of bull crap!!!

American school and colleges and employment belongs to legal and illegal aliens,it was giving to them by our own American politicians. Our President doesn’t know who these illegal aliens are, yet want to grant them a path to citizenship in America!

Instead of forcing our immigration laws, workplace raids, E-verify to stop this mess, Obama feels that a path to citizenship will help illegal aliens mess in America! What a big laugh!! all this means is that America will be in a heap of trouble!!!

How about this for an idea, Send all the Illigal Criman aliens home, then support E-varity and enforce it strongly. Those aliens who come here thru legal means will be welcomed with open arms. The criminal who are here will be caught and deported with no chance of admission ever. The children of Criminal Illgal Aliens will not be grante citizenship and they will be sent home also. Once we have removed the problem and secured our borders then we can discuss changes to our imigration policies.
