Did Scrappleface Write This?

This defies all logic and common sense.

When I read it I thought it was a spoof done by Scrappleface. 

The subject?  Sandy “Burglar” Berger.

Here are some snippets.

Former national security advisor Sandy Berger wasn’t trying to conceal information when he stuffed five copies of a top secret terrorism report in his pants and socks during two trips to the National Archives in 2003

“(he) did not have an intent to hide any of the content of the documents”

Berger took the documents merely for personal convenience - to prepare for his and President Clinton’s testimony before the Sept. 11 Commission

All this comes from ................. (are you ready?)

(are you sure?)

(please put down any cups of coffee or other liquid refreshment.  Empty your mouths of food so as not to spew on your keyboard or monitor.  Take all loaded weapons and put them in the “safe” position.  Better yet, take all the bullets out and put them in another room.)

OK, is everyone back?

This DRIVEL, this SHIT, this NONSENSE came from the

chief of the Justice Department’s public integrity section

And we are expecting our government to keep illegals out?  And we want our judges to not be activists?

How can we expect anything of any consequence from a government that has prosecutors who did not even:

“ask...(Berger) to explain why he destroyed three out of the five copies he had stolen.”

How “Cheap” Is Illegal Labor?

Richard Lamm has written a brilliant piece on the cost of illegal labor.

Sure, it’s cheap for the person doing the hiring.  But how expensive is it to the country and its taxpayers?

It may be cheap to those who pay the wages, but for the rest of us it is clearly subsidized labor, as we taxpayers pick up the costs of education, health and other municipal costs imposed by this workforce. That has become a substantial and growing cost as the nature of illegal immigration patterns has changed.

Here’s just one example:

the average family of illegal immigrants has two to four school-age kids. It costs U.S. taxpayers more than $7,000 a child just to educate them in our public schools. Now no minimum-wage workers, or even low-wage workers, pay anywhere near enough in taxes to pay for even one child in school. Even if their parents were paying all federal and state taxes, Colorado’s estimated 30,000 school-age children of workers illegally in the U.S. impose gargantuan costs on other taxpayers.

Take the points mentioned in Lamm’s article and if we were to eliminate illegals completely would there REALLY be an increase in our costs of goods and services?

Even without the entrepreneurship and invention mentioned in my previous post (below), the cost savings alone to the taxpayers would put enough money back in their pockets to make up the rise in other costs.

Kick them the hell out NOW!!!

On The Cost Of Illegals

I have seen comments in our posts about illegals citing an often heard (but incorrect) mantra to the effect that
that prices will go up if we kick out the illegals. 

Well, I disagree vehemently.  Read on.

Just think about it.  We are a capitalistic society, right?  In the process we try and find means to reduce costs to keep prices down.  What’s the easiest way of doing so?  Through manpower.

But what happens when manpower ceases to be cheap?  What do we do then? 

The options are two:

1. we pay more
2. we find other ways to reduce costs

America has always been a nation of inventors, gadget makers, and entrepreneurs. So long as labor is cheap there is no incentive to waste time and energy on Number 2 above.  Think about it in oil exploration terms:  we know there are billions of barrels of oil trapped in shale or dirtier than we currently pump.  It stays in the ground because it is not cost effective to remove it nor refine it.  As the cost of oil is low the incentive for doing anything with it is nil.  But let the price spike and pumps start pumping.  Why?  Because now it is worth our time and effort.

Same thing with illegals.  Kick all their asses out and sure, we will see a jump in lawn care, construction, food, home cleaning.

But when that happens, the “incentive” motive kicks in and some entrepreneur will find a better way to harvest lettuce or potatoes or corn (because so long as labor was cheap there was no reason to do so); an inventor will develop tools to make home cleaning easier reducing the time to clean a home and reducing the cost to the homeowner because now the higher paid worker doesn’t have to be in the home as long.  Some scientist will develop fruits and vegetables that require less cleaning and less manipulation.  Technology will bring advances in machinery and construction.

Things we can not imagine now (because it is not worth our effort) and ideas we can not visualize today will pop to the forefront. Necessity is the mother of invention.

Simple as that.

That’s just the way our system works.

And in the meantime, this boomlet will generate more jobs and more income to LEGAL Americans.

Pissed Off Enough Already?

Pissed Off Enough Already?

Then read this by one of our members, Phil.  His post can be read in its entirety here where you will find links to other illegal news stories that are NOT fiction.

Somewhere in the desert of southern New Mexico…

The burnt smell of smokeless powder was beginning to fade. His nose was welcoming the returning smell of the southwest desert, in particular the creosote bush he had seen so much of before the sun set. But his ears rung painfully. At his feet, now on the soil of the Great Satan, lay his escorts. They were both in pools of blood being soaked up by the thirsty ground.

Just two minutes earlier, they had made the last mistake of their lives. They had turned their backs on the diminutive Abbas.

After a brief stop for water and to rest his blistered feet, Abbas had motioned for the Mexicans to continue their trek into the US. They were happy to do so. The pair were being paid more than triple their usual fee for getting their guest into New Mexico and were fronted half when they met their new travel companion in Mexico City 5 days earlier. The catch was they had to avoid their usual illegal immigrant trails. They chose one of the less traveled drug running routes in the general area Abbas had suggested. It was more desolate and far less likely to encounter border patrols. If there was an afterlife, now the Mexicans knew why the Syrian wanted it this way.

When Abbas had indicated his rest was over, his escorts stood and turned north. They began joking and talking about the big money party they were going to have with their favorite whores once they got to Los Angeles. Neither of them had seen Abbas reach in his front pocket for his Makarov. Abbas could not see the fixed blade of the front site against the back of their heads, yet at point blank range, it didn’t matter. One hollow point bullet in the base of each skull was enough to do the job, but Abbas gave them both one more for good measure.

He rolled the cadavers and was fishing through their pockets, looking for his $30,000. He would need the money more than they would. Once the cash was secured, he straightened up, not enjoying the noticeable pain in his back. He had been warned about this by The Medico. There was no time to waste. He thought about leaving the spent shell casings behind but did not want to tempt fate by handing over more clues than necessary - not now when he was on the cusp of jihad.

Pissed Off Mexicans

Allan beat me to the punch on that story about the illegals already arrested by virtue of the actions of the Minutemen so I bring you the following.

It looks like the Minuteman Project has got some wetbacks with their knickers in a wad.

These sons of bitches have got some balls, let me tell you.  But, based on recent rulings here by judges, I would not be surprised if these cockbites would win.

Mexico’s Foreign Relations Department said Tuesday that Mexican consulates in Arizona will file criminal complaints against any illegal detentions of its citizens by volunteers of the so-called Minuteman Project.

In a press statement, the department said it would also weigh further steps _ apparently civil lawsuits _ against people involved in what it described as “vigilanteism” against undocumented Mexican migrants.

Maybe what we need to do is have incursions into Mexico by US citizens and raise holy hell there demanding tacos and burritos.  When the Wetback Government tries to arrest them we can threaten to take them to the international court for violating our human rights!

From The “Blindingly Obvious” Department

British scientists (yes, let’s pick on the wetbacks and Brits today) concluded that nuclear waste need to either be stored underground or on the surface.

No!!!!!!!  Really?  Underground?  On the surface?  What other choices do we have?

Well.............................."Gee, I thought we could store it in the ocean.  You know, where all that salty corrosive water could eat away the containers?”

Or maybe “hey, let’s store it in space......where a rocket ship could suffer a breakdown, explode in flight and rain nuclear waste over half the planet?”

“I know, I know, let’s focus our karmic energy, meditate and make it go away by thinking it away!”

Am I missing something here or are these guys really that stupid?  Or is this just bad reporting?

Weird Crap

Only in England, I guess, can you have a Sex Festival and be forced to close it for lack of interest.

Bad food.

Bad teeth.

Weird royalty.

Bad sex.

Why does anyone continue to live there?

Who Needs A Gun?  (Part Deux)

If you listen to the gun fearing wussies, they’d tell you no one needs a gun.  Sure, in a utopia where no person has a criminal mind, where all people are good and kind.  The operant word is “utopia.” But our world is different.  Sickoes abound.

And some of these sickoes are so sick they do NOT need a gun for a good old fashioned bloodbath.

Especially not this German who took a sword into a church and began hacking away.

I wonder how long before the Krauts ban swords and make people register any knife over 4 inches long?

And, OBTW, he was a furr’ner!  The skinheads in Germany will love this!

Had someone in that church had a gun, this guy would be dead right now.  So, who needs a gun?  Everyone.

Who Says You Need A Gun?

I do!!

Everyone in this country should own a gun.  Simple as that.  Criminals are a cowardly lot and if they THINK you have a gun they are much less likely to assault you, rob you, burglarize your home, etc.

These guys didn’t think the owner had a gun. They played in a game thinking the advantage was theirs.  But it wasn’t.  This time the home team won.  It was a classic case of, ”Have Gun, Will Defend. At least that’s what this homeowner thought when he found his house burgled.  So he packed heat, waited in the dark and when the burglars came back he was ready.

Too bad he didn’t kill them.

Border Scorecard

Today’s border score:

Minutemen .... 19
Mess-cans .... 0

The Minutemen haven’t even had a chance to get on the field for the opening kickoff yet and already nearly two dozen Mess-cans were tackled trying to beat the opening whistle. The Mess-cans were penalized fifteen yards and loss of down for off-sides. The first quarter actually begins at noon today. Play ball!

Complaint Department

Recently our Complaint Department received a slap on the wrist for linking to a story about Muslim women in Pakistan entering a race dressed in “knickers and t-shirts”. Unfortunately, the story had no visual imagery to go with it and one reader was extremely discombobulated by this. As restitution, we present the following tasty little morsel. We apologize for the lack of knickers and t-shirts in this picture. Will pink boots and a feather boa suffice instead?

CENSORED!!!!!! (to protect those who may be in office environments) Adult Content.  Click Below.

Memo: OK, OK. For those who just can’t get enough of this little hottie, you can view more pics of her here.

GET ME OUT OF HERE ...

Canine Craziness

They say people usually choose pets who look like them. There is also lots of evidence to support this theory. Take a look around you at your pets and those of others. See any resemblance? Well, let’s put it to the test, dear readers. Below are two pictures of two canine pets. One belongs to Allan and one belongs to Vilmar. Can you decide which pet belongs to which of us? Study the pictures carefully. I realize the similarities to their owner may be subtle and hard to see but I’m sure if you concentrate you may be able to see their owners in their snarky little faces ....

    

Update: The “pet” below left belongs to OldCatMan. Isn’t the resemblance uncanny? It looks exactly like OCM. Finally, what pet gallery would be complete without a picture of Annoying Little Twerp’s cat. Meow!

    

Further Update: Below is another BMEWS member with his “pet”. Hmmmmm .... there is definitely something rotten about that pose (yes, that’s a hint) ....

Around The World In Eighty Moonbats

■ Terri Schiavo’s body has now been cremated. Michael can relax .. the evidence has been destroyed.

■ Newly discovered finger-length blood-sucking catfish found in Amazon will be used to treat heart disease. No, really .. that is the punchline.

■ The man who shot the Pope in 1981 is grief-stricken over the Pontiff’s death. In a related story, the KGB says the “Pope File” is now officially closed.

■ In Pakistan, Islamic fundamentalists are protesting the participation of women in a 10km road race. Something to do with seeing their women in “knickers and t-shirts” just pisses these people off.

■ The Village Voice has the far, far, far, far Leftist view on Terri Schiavo. With the obligatory Bush-bashing, of course.

■ Seattle flooded with potent pot called “BC Bud” from British Columbia. In a related story, Microsoft employees in Redmond suffering shortage of twinkies and cheetos.

■ Tech-savvy pandas in China’s nature preserve now have broadband. Which explains our latest troll .. “Erasable A”.

■ Here’s how to pronounce Vladimir Putin’s last name correctly. Of course, the Fwench were the first to get it right .. it’s “POU-tyeen”, mon ami.

■ The Jamaican government is allocating $25 million to form the Jamaican Anti-Doping Commission (JADCO). Bob Marley’s ghost and four million ganja farmers rise up in protest.

That’s all for now! The annual Barking Moonbat migration is in full progress around the world!

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
