Revenge of the Wetbacks
Oh boy, I can hardly wait! The latest action flick from Robert Rodriguez.
“They just fucked with the wrong Mexican!” Seriously, that’s the quote. Classy.
Starring Danny Trejo, the hardest working, most recognizable, most typecast ex-con in Hollywood, even though you may not know his name. Also starring every available Latino they could find - Michelle Rodriguez, Jessica Alba, Cheech Marin, Carlos Gallardo, Ara Celi etc. - except for comedian Paul Rodriguez. And Robert DeNiro, Steven Segal, Don Johnson, Rose McGowan, and even Lindsay Lohan dressed as a nun with Stockholm Syndrome licking a big revolver.


Opening the first weekend in September, in the less used slot between summer blockbusters and end of the year Holiday Season releases, the latest blow ‘em up, chop ‘em up screen adventure from director Robert Rodriguez has guns, knives, explosions, Cadillacs with mounted artillery, flying motorcycles with blazing mini-guns, and all the pyrotechnic special effects they could squeeze into 90 minutes. Plus hot chix behaving badly in skin tight outfits and black leather eye patches. What more could you ask for?
Um, how about a non-leftist message for once?
Sorry, no chance of that:
Machete (Danny Trejo) is a renegade former “Mexican Federale”. He roams the cities, towns, and streets of Texas looking for work after a shakedown from a drug lord called Torrez (Steven Segal).
Machete has a run-in with Michael Benz (Jeff Fahey), a local businessman and spin doctor, who tells Machete that McLaughlin (Robert De Niro), a corrupt senator, is sending hundreds of illegal immigrants out of the country and that he must be killed. Benz offers Machete $150,000 to kill McLaughlin who quickly accepts the murder contract out of greed for the money.
Attempting to assassinate the senator at a political rally, Machete is double-crossed and is shot in the shoulder by Benz’s henchmen whom are soon revealed to be in league with Senator McLaughlin who orchestrated the entire attempted assassination with Benz as part of a false flag operation to gain widespread public support for McLaughlin’s harsh anti-immigration laws by setting up Machete as the patsy to make it appear that an outlaw illegal Mexican immigrant tried to assassinate the senator.
Now on the run from the law and being tracked not only by a ruthless henchwoman hired by Torrez, but Machete is also tracked down by Sartana (Jessica Alba), a persistent U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent with a special interest in the blade slinger. Machete goes after Benz and his men, as well as Senator McLaughlin, with the help of his only three allies; his “holy” Federale-turned-priest brother Padre (Cheech Marin) with a thing for pump-action shotguns; a saucy meat cleaver-wielding taco slinger named Luz (Michelle Rodriguez); and Benz socialite daughter April (Lindsey Lohan), whom Machete kidnaps and who soon develops a fascination for the blade-wielding fugitive since April has a penchant for guns. Machete rallies a group of illegal migrants together, and they all begin to hunt the people who double crossed him.
Trejo spent much of the 1960s in California prisons--Tracy (1963-65), San Quentin (1965-68), Soledad (1968-69). A child drug addict and criminal, Danny Trejo was in and out of jail for 11 years. While serving time in San Quentin, he won the lightweight and welterweight boxing titles. Imprisoned for armed robbery and drug offenses, he successfully completed a 12-step rehabilitation program that changed his life.
He and director Robert Rodriguez are second cousins.
Subtle like a box of sledgehammers dropped from an airplane, the other key line here is “We didn’t cross the border, the border crossed us!”
I wonder if this one will bomb just as hard as all the Hollywood movies that portray our troops as deranged psychopathic baby killers?
Directed by a Rodriguez, written by a Rodriguez, featuring several Rodriguezes, one token Asian babe, and all the white actors are the bad guys ... is it too un-PC to say this is hispano-sploitation? Why is the vocal track even in English? No word on whether La Raza gets 10% of the gross.
Remember, America is bad. All white people are evil. Buy your tickets now!

Anchor This
No shit. Epidemic growth rates. 2nd generation invasion. Call it what you want, we have way too many illegal aliens here, and they are very busy building families.
The Pew Hispanic Center, a project of polling organization Pew Research Center, finds that, of the 4.3 million babies born in 2008, roughly 340,000 were born to undocumented aliens. This is double the percentage of illegal immigrants in the U.S., owing in part to the fact that the illegal immigrant population is largely comprised of men and women at birthing age.
In addition, high birthrates among undocumented aliens give that population a similar share of children in the U.S. The study finds that children born to illegal immigrants account for 7 percent of the total population of people under the age of 18, or 5.1 million children. Four million, or 79 percent, of those children were born in the United States, making them U.S. citizens.
This analysis comes amid calls from some GOP members to consider ending birthright citizenship, the right enshrined in the 14th Amendment, that persons born in the United States are citizens of the country and the state in which they reside. House Minority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio, said on NBC’s “Meet The Press” this week that terminating the practice is an idea “worth considering.”
Ending or revising the guarantee of birthright citizenship, Boehner said, may eliminate a major motivation for many immigrants to cross the border unlawfully. “There is a problem. To provide an incentive for illegal immigrants to come here so that their children can be U.S. citizens does, in fact, draw more people to our country,” Boehner said. “I do think that it’s time for us to secure our borders and enforce the law and allow this conversation about the 14th Amendment to continue.”
Critics of the idea claim that the guarantee their children will be U.S. citizens is not great enough of an incentive for parents to immigrate illegally, since they would have to wait 21 years for their children to be old enough to sponsor their parents for citizenship. Additionally, such a change would require a Constitutional amendment, which two-thirds of Congress would have to approve before state legislatures consider the measure, and three-quarters of those must agree to the provision for it to become part of the Constitution. A bill that calls for such a change-the Birthright Citizenship Act of 2009-has been stalled in the House since April 2009.
Meanwhile, nearly half of respondents in a new poll support a Constitutional amendment ending automatic birthright citizenship. In a CNN/Opinion Research poll released today, 49% of respondents said they would favor a Constitutional amendment to limit a guarantee of citizenship to children whose parents are citizens.
If our political masters are afraid to kick them out, and are afraid to deny citizenship to the ones born here, then at least seal the damn borders and put an immigration moratorium in place. We have too many people here already. How about NO immigration from anywhere for the next 10 to 20 years? No exceptions, no asylum, no H1-B, no nothing. If we need some specialist, train a citizen. There is no job, no skill, that some American can not do or learn. Instead of paying insane executive compensation and fat fat dividends, companies should be proud of how many people they employ.
Hell, I’m all for sealing the borders period. No NAFTA, CAFTA, or endless imports of poison laden crap from China. Make it here, buy it here, or go without. And that’s the only real way to get the country working again. We have to have manufacturing. We have to Buy American. And yes, making all or nearly all our stuff here is going to cause some pollution and is going to cost somewhat more. But we can not be a nation of managers running offshore companies. We need jobs for the masses, and that means factory work. That doesn’t mean sweatshops, that doesn’t mean unions, and that doesn’t mean $75/hr for guys who use an air wrench to turn a couple of bolts. I’m talking “living wages” for honest labor, and rebuilding the bonds of trust between companies and their employees. And that’s the one and only way we will become a strong nation again.
Oh look, another week, another “unexpected” rise in unemployment claims. Who the hell do these people think they are fooling at this point? For 20 months now, every single week it’s been “unexpected”. Same goes for the low numbers for mortgages, new housing starts, durable goods purchases, and consumer confidence numbers. It’s all “unexpected”. By whom? Total BS. A garden slug could figure out that the government’s policies are killing business and stifling growth. No kidding. Every day more and more people cross the line from accepting “unexpected” to believing in “deliberate”. And that’s the “Change” we’re getting.
But hey, let’s have another “stimulus” to bail out Maxine Waters’ failed BS bank and whatever other nonsense businesses the Chicago Thugs have their hands in. Let’s have another round of those $1000-down, no-credit-check mortgages. Because they worked so well the first time, right?
It’s not an accident. It’s done on purpose. You don’t have to connect the dots when so many exist that they’re edge to edge. The lines are already there.

ICE meltdown
No time to post. Must get up early to work.
Looks like the men and women at ICE want to do their jobs ... but the bosses are stopping them. Hey, they’re union members, so they took a vote. 100% unanimous: no confidence in their leaders.

Senior ICE leadership dedicates more time to campaigning for immigration reforms aimed at large scale amnesty legislation, than advising the American public and Federal lawmakers on the severity of the illegal immigration problem, and the need for more manpower and resources within ICE ERO to address it. ICE ERO is currently overwhelmed by the massive criminal alien problem in the U.S. resulting in the large-scale release of criminals back into local communities.
Are they for real? Or is this just some CYA armor to keep the villager’s pitchforks at bay?
Not that any of this is news to anyone here at BMEWS

The real motivation for the Justice Department’s lawsuit against Arizona’s new immigration statute was the only one not mentioned in the department’s brief: The Obama administration has no intention of enforcing the immigration laws against the majority of illegal aliens already in the country.

The Perpetuation of Stupid
This is why I can’t watch the news. I just can’t. The level of stupid out there is overwhelming. It’s me against the millions. I can’t take it anymore.
from Politico, but posted everywhere else as a news item:
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Tuesday night argued that the 14th Amendment no longer serves the purpose it was designed to address and that Congress should reexamine granting citizenship to any child born in the United States.
The 14th Amendment was passed following the Civil War out of fear that southern states would try to find a way to deny citizenship to freed slaves.
Pointing to that history, Graham said during an interview with Fox News’s Greta Van Susteren that birthright citizenship should not be applied to babies born in the United States to parents who are illegal immigrants.
“I’m looking at the laws that exist and see if it makes sense today,” Graham said. “Birthright citizenship doesn’t make so much sense when you understand the world as it is.”
“You’ve got the other problem, where thousands of people are coming across the Arizona/Texas border for the express purpose of having a child in an American hospital so that child will become an American citizen, and they broke the law to get there,” he said. “We ought to have a logical discussion. Is this the way to award American citizenship, sell it to somebody who’s rich, reward somebody who breaks the law? I think we need to look at it really closely.”
To further justify having that “discussion,” Graham also pointed to tourists who, he says, come to the United States on 90-day visa during the later stage of pregnancy in order to give birth to a child with U.S. citizenship.
“You come to a resort, you have your child at a hospital within the resort [and] that child is an American citizen,” Graham said. “That, to me, cheapens American citizenship. That’s not the way I would like it to be awarded.”
Republican Senate leader Mitch McConnell has called for “taking a look” at changing the 14th Amendment as well.
The line in question in the amendment reads: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States …”
70 or more people commented on the post at Politico, and NOT ONE saw any error in Graham’s “understanding” of the 14th. Fox News’ Megyn Kelly, bless her blond roots, said that the 14th does give citizenship to anyone born here, then the camera went to Rosen out in DC who instantly parroted that remark.
I surrender. My nation has drowned in stupid.
Hey Graham, you dumb cracker: READ THE GOD DAMNED AMENDMENT:
Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Didn’t I just post on this two weeks ago? Why, yes I did. I guess “reading comprehension” must be subject to majority rule that the plain and simple words that I read in the first section of the 14th DO NOT MEAN WHAT THEY SAY, and that millions and millions of people have turned the meaning INSIDE OUT because they only repeat what they are told, understand things the way they want to, are just plain lazy and/or stupid, or at least have never spent one whole minute making the smallest of efforts to try and think and understand what the Constitution ACTUALLY SAYS.
So, I’ll post it again.
The opening section of the Civil Rights Act of 1866:
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That all persons born in the United States and not subject to any foreign power, excluding Indians not taxed, are hereby declared to be citizens of the United States; and such citizens, of every race and color, without regard to any previous condition of slavery or involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall have the same right, in every State and Territory in the United States, to make and enforce contracts, to sue, be parties, and give evidence, to inherit, purchase, lease, sell, hold, and convey real and personal property, and to full and equal benefit of all laws and proceedings for the security of person and property, as is enjoyed by white citizens, and shall be subject to like punishment, pains, and penalties, and to none other, any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, to the contrary notwithstanding.
Note the “and not subject to any foreign power” part. This one paragraph grants full equal rights to all, regardless of color or gender.
This Act was vetoed by President Andrew Johnson (D-TN), but the veto was overridden by the Radical Republicans in Congress. This Act is still alive today, as 42 U.S.C. § 1981. Because the actions of this Act were not specifically empowered by the Constitution as it then existed, the ideas of the Act were quickly duplicated by the 14th Amendment. That’s a bit of a chicken-egg thing, but it worked.
Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
While the 14th is most famous for overturning Dred Scott it also overturned Barron v. Baltimore, an 1833 decision wherein the Supremes ruled that the Bill of Rights did not apply to the States. [ Barron was also the Kelo of it’s day, and that decision was just as wrong as Kelo regarding property rights. ]
So it is blatantly obvious that the later Slaughterhouses decision was wrong because it was over-focused. Slaughterhouses specifically only “incorporated” those rights that the federal government had granted, not those rights that it “merely” recognized. And this started the nation down the long slow road of incorporation. At this point in time, Amendments 1 through 9 have been incorporated, although the 3rd Amendment (quartering soldiers in your home) has only risen to the 2nd and 10th Circuits; it has never come before SCOTUS. The 10th Amendment deals with the States themselves, and thus it’s incorporation would be redundant. So in effect Slaughterhouses has been mostly nullified even if it hasn’t yet been explicitly overturned. I’m waiting ...
But back to that “and not subject to any power” bit from the Act. That’s the same meaning as the “and subject to the jurisdiction thereof” language in the 14th. It takes an act of willful blindness to not see the real meaning, and that meaning is this: foreign nationals who are in our country and who give birth do not magically bear American citizens. They are “subject to any foreign power” because they are citizens of that other nation; they are “subject to the jurisdiction thereof”. This means that the “anchor babies” thing is bass-ackwards, dead wrong, and always has been.
Hey, that’s not just my opinion. The smallest bit of research shows that this was the original intent. Here are the words of the author of that part of the 14th Amendment, Senator Jacob M. Howard (R-MI):
Talk about your “original intent” - it’s all in the congressional record, the whole debate, right here.
You want audacity? I’ll give you audacity. I’ll stand up against the entire United States population, the bleach blond lawyer/reporters on Fox News, the whole House of Representatives Lindsey Graham included, and even the 9 old codgers on the Supreme Court. I am right, and YOU ARE WRONG. ASS BACKWARDS in fact.
It sucks being alone sometimes though.
Oh, and Bob Menendez? What’s he got to do with this? He was asked to comment on Graham’s statement. He said that if we stopped giving citizenship to all the children of foreigners born here, then this would result in millions of children having no citizenship in any nation at all.
Horry clap.
UPDATE:
Hey, Ann Coulter agrees with me! She even traces it all back to 1982. Michael Zak writes me that there will be an article up at Grand Old Partisan tomorrow. So I am not alone. But I still fear we [the VRWC] are a choir standing in a circle, singing to ourselves. Isn’t anyone else listening?

Police seize $1.7bn worth of marijuana in California
Police in California say they have seized $1.7bn worth of marijuana plants in the Sierra Nevada mountains.
They have also arrested 97 people over the past three weeks, most of them Mexican nationals believed to have ties with Mexican drug cartels.
White House drug czar Gil Kerlikowske said police had found industrial-sized plantations of marijuana.
Experts say Mexican cartels are increasingly growing marijuana in the US, rather than smuggling it there.
450 officers from local, state and federal agencies took part in the raids in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada in California.
California authorities said on Thursday they have made dozens of arrests and destroyed marijuana plants worth billions of dollars on farms that officials said are controlled by Mexican drug traffickers.
The street value of the marijuana destroyed in California’s Sierra Nevada Mountains was put at $1.7 billion.
Authorities destroyed some 270 acres of marijuana plants, which were irrigated and spread with fertilizer.
“The mission is a collective fight against organized crime,” Madera County Sheriff John Anderson said.
A series of raids that began in January in three northern and central California counties—dubbed Operation Trident—netted 97 arrests and more than 400,000 marijuana plants,
Authorities also seized nearly 500 pounds of harvested marijuana, 74 ounces of cocaine, 49 ounces of methamphetamine and numerous weapons.
Those arrested were charged with cultivation of marijuana, possession of marijuana for sale, weapons possession and immigration offenses, the sheriff’s office said.

Leader of Mexico’s Sinaloa drug cartel killed
One of the top three leaders of Mexico’s most powerful drug cartel, Ignacio “Nacho” Coronel,” has been killed in a gun battle with soldiers.The death of Coronel, 56, is the biggest strike yet against Sinaloa cartel led by Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman - Mexico’s top drug lord - since President Felipe Calderon launched a military offensive against drug traffickers in late 2006.
According to the FBI, which offered a $5 million reward for Coronel, he was believed to be “the forerunner in producing massive amounts of methamphetamine in clandestine laboratories in Mexico, then smuggling it into the US.”
Sources from the Ministry of National Defense (SEDENA) confirmed the joint elite army/air force operation, composed of at least 150 soldiers and supported by two helicopters, also detained at least 10 men who made up Coronel’s personal bodyguard team.
Troops were deployed on at least five residential streets and restricted the traffic of vehicles and people during the clash. Residents reported gunfire and detonations during the operation
Pictures here, not much to see really. Notice the soldiers are using G3A3s, not M16s. No poodle shooting going on here!
Gee, too bad. Hope the cartels keep right on killing each other. And those poor mistreated Mexicans, just simple farmers, growing a crop for market. While armed to the teeth and cooking up pots of meth on the side. Arrested for doing the jobs Americans won’t do, as usual. And charged with immigration violations. The indignity.

Cut The Anchor Chain
The opening section of the Civil Rights Act of 1866:
An Act to protect all Persons in the United States in their Civil Rights, and furnish the Means of their Vindication.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That all persons born in the United States and not subject to any foreign power, excluding Indians not taxed, are hereby declared to be citizens of the United States; and such citizens, of every race and color, without regard to any previous condition of slavery or involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall have the same right, in every State and Territory in the United States, to make and enforce contracts, to sue, be parties, and give evidence, to inherit, purchase, lease, sell, hold, and convey real and personal property, and to full and equal benefit of all laws and proceedings for the security of person and property, as is enjoyed by white citizens, and shall be subject to like punishment, pains, and penalties, and to none other, any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, to the contrary notwithstanding.

Amendment XIV
Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

This means that the “anchor babies” thing is bass-ackwards, dead wrong, and always has been.
Hey, that’s not just my opinion. The smallest bit of research shows that this was the original intent. Here are the words of the author of that part of the 14th Amendment, Senator Jacob M. Howard (R-MI):
The first amendment is to section one, declaring that “all persons born in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United State and the States wherein they reside.” I do not propose to say anything on the subject except that the question of citizenship has been so fully discussed in this body as to not need any further elucidation, in my opinion. This amendment of which I have offered is simply declaratory of what I regard is the law of land already, that every person born within the limits of the United States, and subject to their jurisdiction, is by virtue of natural law and national law a citizen of the United States. This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the Government of the United States, but will include every other class of persons. It settles the great question of citizenship and removes all doubt as to what persons are, or are not, citizens of the United States. This has long been a great desideration in the jurisprudence and legislation of this country.
Talk about your “original intent” - it’s all in the congressional record, the whole debate, right here. Senator Doolittle (R-NY, Chairman of the Committee on Indian Affairs) then tries to put in words that exclude the Indians, and Howard argues against that. The debate rages on for 7 long-winded pages before the bit about the indians is voted down. And eventually, the amendment was voted on, and passed, using Howard’s language for that section; after intense amounts of debate and bloviation about Chinese in California and Digger Indians and so forth, the words of that section - and their meaning as explained in excruciating detail - were accepted.
So why do we have these anchor babies? Willful blindness and judicial activism. And so, 142 years later, Virgil Goode was moved to essay in today’s Front Page Magazine
In his address to the country on immigration last week, President Obama said that “being an American is not a matter of blood or birth.” Our current government policy of giving automatic US citizenship to the children illegal aliens who are born on American soil makes being American solely a matter of birth.
Americans are quickly waking up to the disaster that is the arbitrary government policy of guaranteed automatic citizenship to the children of illegal aliens. A Rasmussen Poll found that 58% of Americans opposed granting citizenship to the children of illegal aliens, while only 33% supported it.
Birthright citizenship creates a massive fiscal burden on the American taxpayer.
This is why I have used the term “anchor baby” to describe them. The critics of this term are the same people who are trying to make the anchor drop even deeper. During his speech last week, President Obama stated we cannot deport illegal aliens because “it would tear at the very fabric of this nation—because immigrants who are here illegally are now intricately woven into that fabric. Many have children who are American citizens.”
The costly policy of granting birthright citizenship is based upon a misinterpretation of the Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment. It states, “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”
This was clearly designed to guarantee for the purpose of ensuring that the children of freed slaves could not be denied citizenship. Granting citizenship to the children of illegal aliens is a completely arbitrary interpretation that has never been ruled on by the Courts or passed by statute.
I think it’s long past high time that our children’s Social Studies education be geared far more to actual civics and the study of our founding laws than to feeewings and how evil white men oppressed the world. And I cast the first stone also at the Supreme Court for being lazy and not actively taking up this misinterpretation and ruling on it, instead waiting through generations for some lower court case to work it’s way upward. I do not think that SCOTUS is legally precluded from proactively clarifying an obvious wrong, but if we are to have any valid and useful immigration reform in this nation then without question it must begin there. It’s all there in black and white and completely unequivocal: the 14th Amendment does not allow anchor babies. Citizenship once given can not be taken away however, so let’s just admit our mistake, and stop making it. Then we can move forward.
Oh, and Obama “the constitutional scholar” surely merits a big fat flaming F for missing this one. Whether it’s through willful blindness, or via the misguided beneficence of social justice types like Deady Kennedy, the giving of birthright citizenship is not constitutionally based. And thus it can not be a valid law. It is not now, nor has ever been, a right. It is merely a policy, an act of generosity that we can no longer afford to make.

Colorado Town Takes Style From UK
WHEAT RIDGE, Colo. - Admitted thieves are going free, while an elderly Wheat Ridge man is facing the possibility of spending the rest of his life behind bars, all, he says, for trying to defend his property and his life.
82-year-old Robert Wallace said in February that he looked out his window and saw two men hooking his flatbed trailer up to their pickup. He yelled at them to stop, but they sped away, stealing his trailer. He told police he fired two shots at the pickup.
Minutes later, police say 32-year-old Damacio Torres dropped 28-year-old Alvaro Cardona off at a hospital emergency room with a gunshot wound to the face.
Torres did not stay to talk with police, but they caught up with him later. According to court documents, he admitted he and Cardona stole the trailer.
Wallace did not want to talk on camera, but when we asked him if the two men threatened him he said, “They almost ran me over.”
The Jefferson County DA’s office said that neither Torres nor Cardona have been charged with anything at this point, even though Torres confessed to the crime. However, the homeowner, Wallace is facing twelve felony counts, including four counts of attempted first degree murder. If convicted, he could spend the rest of his life behind bars.
Sources say Torres and Cardona are believed to be in the country illegally and both have an arrest record. Cardona’s record includes public fighting and numerous traffic offenses like driving without a license or insurance. Torres’s record includes agricultural trespassing as well as a 2005 arrest for aggravated motor vehicle theft for which he was given a plea bargain to a lesser crime. Sources say Torres is also under investigation for being part of a major auto theft ring.
I so hope this doesn’t become our new national anthem. Especially since we like to believe we started with it. I don’t want to ironically end with it as well.

even the left agrees
I say the left because I can’t picture Conservatives watching MSNBC or visiting their web page. But MSNBC has a poll up, and the results there are more than clear.

Golly, almost 2 million responses so far. That’s almost half a percent of the entire population, and about 1000 times bigger than the polling samples our beloved MFM uses to steer the election cycles. Guess old Obama and his lawsuit against AZ aren’t reflecting the will of the people AT ALL !
I’d like to see a real poll at one of these popular but left leaning news sites. “Do you think Arizona’s new illegal immigration law goes far enough?” I’ll bet you half a boiled egg that 80%+ say HELL NO.

Lost It
Damn, I thought I posted last night on the rancid situation in the southwest. How vast tracts of land there are now “off limits” to Americans, and have been for nearly 4 years, because it’s too risky for them to go there. Because those areas are frequented by the coyotes and the narco-traffickers, and both groups are violently anti-gringo.
And I looked at the situation and realized that this ought to be a call to war. Territory of our nation seized by armed groups, our citizens kept from entering those territories for their own safety? How is this not an armed invasion by a belligerent force? Especially in this new age of non-uniformed, asymmetric warfare?
I was boiling mad, and called out the President for not doing his primary duty and defending the nation. And there was a bit of a rant about oath-takers and oath-holders and how maybe we should just do the right thing regardless of what those in charge say.
Yeah, it was probably a bit of an extreme post. But I stuck it up anyway.
And today I can’t find it. It’s gone. Lost. Never happened. Go figure. But I found the links again, so here they are:
Four years after federal officials quietly surrendered thousands of acres of America‘s border to Mexican drug gangs and illegals, there still are “no plans to reopen” the taxpayer-owned national park lands.
Roughly 3,500 acres of taxpayer-funded government land in Arizona have been closed to U.S. citizens since 2006 due to safety concerns fueled by drug and human smuggling along the Mexican border, according to a statement posted on the website for the Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge.
Imagine the federal government closing a section of the Lincoln Memorial because it was under the control of Mexican drug lords and bands of illegal immigrants.
That scenario is playing out as reality in southern Arizona, where parts of five federal lands—including two designated national monuments—continue to post travel warnings or be outright closed to Americans who own the land because of the dangers of “human and drug trafficking” along the Mexican border.
Again, I can’t see how this is not a call to war. An utter dereliction of duty by our current president and by our past president. WTF, people, WTF?
Let’s see if this post evaporates too.

What Do Arizona And Afghanistan Have In Common?
Hey, aren’t we seeing the same thing in the Gulf with the oil spill? Hmm ... I wonder when people will wake up and realize that we have TOO DAMN MUCH GOVERNMENT !!
Border Patrol agents must navigate a patchwork of environmental regulations dating back decades in order to police for drug cartels, smugglers and illegal immigrants—often on foot-and-horseback in some of the most vulnerable areas of the southwest border.
To unlock the legislative handcuffs, a group of House lawmakers are pushing a bill that would prohibit the Departments of Interior and Agriculture from taking any action that would “impede border security” on public lands.
The restrictions on those lands cover numerous laws, rules and interagency agreements, which the Department of Homeland Security has warned are getting in the way of securing the border at a “critical” time.
“It’s insanity,” said bill author Rep. Rob Bishop, R-Utah.
The basis for the restrictions dates back to the Wilderness Act of 1964 which established millions of acres of federal protected land and for the most part barred permanent roads and prohibited motor vehicles, motorboats, aircraft and any other “mechanical transport” from entering. For most casual hikers and backcountry campers, that’s not a problem. But as the border has become more porous over the decades, lawmakers say Border Patrol guards have found themselves at a disadvantage as illegal immigrants use the protected lands as a corridor to enter the United States.
Meanwhile, our enemies do what they damn please. It doesn’t matter whether those enemies are Taliban or coyotes, jihadis or drug cartels. The rules are being obeyed only by our side, and that puts our people at an insane disadvantage.
Border Patrol also can only drive into the wilderness areas in an emergency situation. That means it involves “human life, health, safety of persons within the area, or posing a threat to national security”—and the pursuit is “reasonably expected” to result in an arrest. Any time that happens, Border Patrol has to notify the local federal land manager to report on what happened. If the manager determines there was “significant” environment impact, they have to submit a written report.
The rules don’t end there. A House GOP aide said there are plenty of local rules unique to each region. Plus Border Patrol needs to navigate around rules dealing with endangered species.
The October letter from Homeland Security noted that Border Patrol was trying to work with Interior and the Forest Service regarding “Endangered Species Act issues related to Grizzly Bear and road use.” Biologists said vehicle use could be “detrimental” to the bears, but the letter said Border Patrol “must occasionally have motorized presence in those areas.”
Stupid seems to be the only limitless resource on the planet.

Yeah, what he said
Over at American Thinker, Henry Percy cuts through the “nation of immigrants” fog ...
and decides that the southwest USA is ours, both by right of conquest and by right of purchase. So La Raza can Eff Off.
It’s worth a read.
In short, human history is the story of groups of people moving across vast distances, laying claim to territory, killing or subjugating the earlier inhabitants, intermingling with them, and moving on. The right by which any group lays claim to a piece of land is ultimately enforced by—force.
So let’s hear no more burbling about how “America is a nation of immigrants.” The president said it again in his press conference the other day. The statement is as vapid as declaiming, “The waters of America—our rivers and streams, our lakes and swamps, our bays and marshes—are...are...wet!” Immigrants? I defy anyone to name a country, just one, of the 35 in North and South America that is not “a nation of immigrants.” Is there one in Europe? The world? As far as I know, every country is “a nation of immigrants.” So next time you hear someone say “America is a nation of immigrants,” just laugh at him.
Bulls-eye.
Expanding on one of the comments there, a link to a short post that pushes the “original inhabitants” theory to the extreme: the first people who inhabited the western hemisphere may have been white folks from Europe. How about them apples, Jose?
… while independent invention could account for these similarities (i.e., finding the same solutions to the same questions), the oldest Clovis tools are not on the Great Plains, or in the Great Basin or Southwest of the U.S. - where they should be if the Clovis people trickled in from Siberia and then fanned out across the continent - but rather they are found in the eastern and southeastern regions of the U.S. It’s possible that Ice Age Europeans may have crossed into North America by boats, hugging the edges of the great ice sheets that stretched from Greenland westward to what is now upstate New York.
The “Clovis-First” model, however, requires that all American sites older than Clovis be rejected, and this appears to be no longer possible. The Clovis-First model does not explain the apparent synchroneity between Clovis and the early Paleoindian sites of South America. Finally, a late-entry and rapid dispersal of humans across the New World is inconsistent with the distribution of genetic variation observed in Native American populations today. Thus, alternative models to explain the peopling of the Americas need to be developed.
Original inhabitants, indeed!

Not A News Item
Pakistani citizen caught crossing border into Arizona
Posted - 6/3/2010 at 4:21PM
TUCSON - U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials confirm with News4, a Pakistani citizen crossed the border illegally from Mexico into Arizona on May 20th.
ICE says the man was apprehended by Border Patrol on the Tohono O’odham reservation and turned over to ICE.
My guess is that ICE catches about 1 out of every 1000 illegals who cross the border. So, how many illegal Pakis do you think are in the country? And how many total, unsavory middle east types? They can’t all work at the local gas station or convenience store you know.
Outright racism on my part? Maybe. I’m not sure. But our borders are highly porous and we have lots of enemies around the globe. And a lot of them can change clothes and pass for Mexicans if folks aren’t looking very closely. And political correctness demands not only that you don’t look closely, but that you don’t even look at all.
h/t to CMBlake6, who posted about it and more.
What, you want more?
Ok, read this then. Don’t waste your time reading the comments; people have not changed their stances one single iota since 2003 and still get just as worked up about it. “Bush lied, people died” forever. Yeah. And I still remember seeing the satellite pictures on TV of a big convoy of trucks crossing over the western border, some months before the shooting started. Nothing to see here, move along.
Any relation between Story A and Story B? Well, not really ... but if you can get people and drugs across the border, you can probably get damn near anything else. Remember back a few years ago when that wiseguy snuck the circus elephants and a mariachi band across?
Something else to read: it may be time to cash in your 401Ks and your IRAs, pay the taxes, and convert them to Roths.

The Other Side Of The Coin
Another great email from Carol. Thanks!
From the other side of the fence ...
Received the following from Tom O’Malley, who was a Director with S.W. BELL in Mexico City:“I spent five years working in Mexico. I worked under a tourist Visa for three months and could legally renew it for three more months. After that you were working illegally. I was technically illegal for three weeks waiting on the FM3 approval.
“During that six months our Mexican and U.S. attorneys were working to secure a permanent work visa called a ‘FM3’. It was in addition to my U.S. passport that I had to show each time I entered and left the country. Barbara’s was the same, except hers did not permit her to work.
“To apply for the FM3, I needed to submit the following notarized originals (not copies):
1. Birth certificate for Barbara and me.
2. Marriage certificate.
3. High school transcripts and proof of graduation.
4. College transcripts for every college I attended and proof of graduation.
5. Two letters of recommendation from supervisors I had worked for at least one year.
6. A letter from the St. Louis Chief of Police indicating that I had no arrest record in the U.S. and no outstanding warrants and, was “a citizen in good standing”.
7. “Finally, I had to write a letter about myself that clearly stated why there was no Mexican citizen with my skills and why my skills were important to Mexico. We called it our ‘I am the greatest person on Earth’ letter. It was fun to write.”“All of the above were in English that had to be translated into Spanish and be certified as legal translations, and our signatures notarized. It produced a folder about 1.5 inches thick with English on the left side & Spanish on the right.”
“Once they were completed Barbara and I spent about five hours, accompanied by a Mexican attorney, touring Mexican government office locations and being photographed and fingerprinted at least three times at each location, and we remember at least four locations where we were instructed on Mexican tax, labor, housing, and criminal law and that we were required to obey their laws or face
the consequences. We could not protest any of the government’s actions or we would be committing a felony. We paid out four thousand dollars in fees and bribes to complete the process. When this was done we could legally bring in our household goods that were held by U.S. Customs in Laredo, Texas. This meant we had rented furniture in Mexico while awaiting our goods. There were extensive fees involved here that the company paid.”“We could not buy a home and were required to rent at very high rates and under contract and compliance with Mexican law.”
“We were required to get a Mexican driver’s license. This was an amazing process. The company arranged for the licensing agency to come to our headquarters location with their photography and fingerprint equipment and the laminating machine. We showed our U.S. license, were photographed and fingerprinted again and issued the license instantly after paying out a six dollar fee. We did not take a written or driving test and never received instructions on the rules of the road. Our only instruction was to never give a policeman your license if stopped and asked. We were instructed to hold it against the inside window away from his grasp. If he got his hands on it you would have to pay ransom to get it back. “
“We then had to pay and file Mexican income tax annually using the number of our FM3 as our ID number. The company’s Mexican accountants did this for us and we just signed what they prepared. It was about twenty legal size pages annually.”
“The FM3 was good for three years and renewable for two more after paying more fees.”
“Leaving the country meant turning in the FM3 and certifying we were leaving no debts behind and no outstanding legal affairs (warrants, tickets or liens) before our household goods were released to customs.”
“It was a real adventure and if any of our Senators or Congressmen went through it once they would have a different attitude toward Mexico.”
“The Mexican government uses its vast military and police forces to keep its citizens intimidated and compliant. They never protest at their capitol or government offices, but do protest daily in front of the United States Embassy. The U.S. Embassy looks like a strongly reinforced fortress and during most protests the Mexican military surrounds the block with their men standing shoulder to shoulder in full riot gear to protect the Embassy. These protests are never shown on U.S. or Mexican TV. There is a large public park across the street where they do their protesting. Anything can cause a protest such as proposed law changes in California or Texas.”
To be fair, I do not know what the reality of the American H1B visa application process is like, but on paper it does not seem so complicated and corrupt. I think what we have here is another case of unequal rules between countries. Americans can’t own property in Mexico I’ve heard, although Mexicans can own property here. And there are some major legal issues and punishments for those trying to sneak into Mexico, trying to find under the table work. We’ve all seen those posts; if the USA had the same laws, regulations, and enforcement efforts on our side that they have on theirs, we wouldn’t have anywhere near as big a problem. This letter is just another case in point.
Round ‘em up, throw ‘em out, fine the daylights out of those who illegally employ them. Drop the “student workers” thing, and drop the “anchor babies” thing. Set up a clear immigration process and pick a number of allowed immigrants per year. And make that number really really low for the next 25 years because of the abuse to the system we’ve suffered. No amnesty, no back door path to citizenship. Because all of that is exactly what they do in their country. So who can argue with full international equality?
Mexico ought to have the 3rd or 4th most viable economy in the western hemisphere. They have lots of resources and a population more than willing to work. They’re the ones who need a whole lot of Change so that they can have some Hope right at home, not us.

So there! Neener neener!
Don’t you just effing love it how these lefty law ‘n order types get to pick and choose the laws they want to enforce? Hey asswipe: you’re FIRED!
A top Department of Homeland Security official reportedly said his agency will not necessarily process illegal immigrants referred to them by Arizona authorities.
John Morton, assistant secretary of homeland security for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, made the comment during a meeting on Wednesday with the editorial board of the Chicago Tribune, the newspaper reports.
“I don’t think the Arizona law, or laws like it, are the solution,” Morton told the newspaper.
The best way to reduce illegal immigration is through a comprehensive federal approach, he said, and not a patchwork of state laws.
So, let’s see how that would work. A comprehensive federal law already exists. A whole department of the federal government exists, given the task of enforcing that one single law. Duh, that’s why they’re called illegal aliens, right Pancho? Otherwise we’d call them Guest Beaners and send out invitiations. So now we have the assistant secretary of the top let’s-tear-down-those-Jamie-Gorelick-walls-and-coordinate-our-efforts-and-work-together agency in the country, the one put together for no other reason than to enhance national security, saying that state laws, which are simply a copy of the existing federal law but will actually be enforced, are NOT a solution, but a comprehensive federal approach - like the entire ICE agency, which doesn’t seem to want to enforce the law they are hired to enforce - is the right approach.
Somebody get this lobotomized monkey in a suit the hell out of DC. That has to be the most stupid thing I’ve ever heard. Hell, that’s even dumber than the Stimulus Package’s idea of going into massive debt and spending billions on pet leftist earmarks as a means to rev up the economy.
So what are the feebs feds going to do? Um, let’s have a blue-ribbon commission and study the problem for future analysis!
In response to Morton’s comments, DHS officials said President Obama has ordered the Department of Justice to examine the civil rights and other implications of the law.
“That review will inform the government’s actions going forward,” DHS spokesman Matt Chandler told Fox News on Friday.
Right - it’s more important to consider the poor poor illegals, and how upset they’ll be if somebody takes away their welfare check than to consider their impact on our economy, sovereignty, public health system, education system, highway accident rate, et cetera et cetera. But catch them and give them the boot? That would hurt their widdle feeewings!
Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-AL, said it appeared the Obama administration is “nullifying existing law” and suggested Morton may not be the right person for his post if he fails to enforce federal immigration law.
“If he feels he cannot enforce the law, he shouldn’t have the job,” Sessions told Fox News. “That makes him, in my view, not fulfilling the responsibilities of his office.”
Sessions said the U.S. government has “systematically failed” to enforce federal immigration law and claimed Morton’s statement is an indication that federal officials do not plan on working with Arizona authorities regarding its controversial law.
“They’re telegraphing to every ICE agency in America that they really don’t intend on cooperating with Arizona,” Sessions said. “The federal government should step up and do it. It’s their responsibility.”
And you know what the hilarious irony of this whole thing will be? Fox News will have Grrrrrrrreta Van Susteren on TV tonight getting a contrary opinion from ... Senator John McAmnesty. We are so fucked.
How about if Arizona passes yet another illegal immigration law, that creates a state agency that actually deports these people? Cut ICE out of the picture entirely. Outsource the deportation work to a mob controlled company that just happens to also own a deserted silver mine or two out in the deep desert. Hey, as long as they can show the state the paperwork, those illegals are considered gone.
Ooh, that would be bad Drew. Ok, give the job to a bunch of screaming jihadis. I’m sure Sharia law demands a hand or a foot or two chopped off for breaking and entering, which is really what these illegals are doing, just on a broader scale. A couple hundred scimitars, a few pots of boiling tar; good to go.
Still too wough Dwew. Oo has to be nicer todese paw, paw iwwegals. Ok, Ok. Round them up, give them a plastic knapsack with 12 MREs, 3 gallons of water, a ground cloth, a blanket, and a roll of TP. Dip them all in purple ink, head to toe. Then run a daily prison train down from the border 500 miles into Mexico. Catch and release. Pay the Mexican army to guard the train, put GPS actuated locks on the doors, and then send it back empty. See, I can do it nicely too. Meanwhile, the state penalties for anyone employing an illegal just went up to $10,000 per illegal per incident per day, and applies to everyone from massive corporations right down to homeowners. Another state law requires doctors and hospitals to check SSNs of all patients, or their parents if minors, and anyone who blows the check gets the old dip in the Iraqi Voting Ink. Citizens turning in a Purple Person are given $100 cash, tax free. A final state law says that illegals have no civil rights, or at least much lesser ones. Heck, call them a threat to national security, and according to Holder they don’t even have Miranda rights. Or rather delayed ones. Unconstitutional? Sure. But it would take years to get to the Supreme Court, and the Purple People Purge would get the illegals out of Arizona by the tens of thousands. Per day. Don’t forget the “toll booths” on the highways at the state borders. That ink sticks to cars too you know. [ All these new laws are just Drew daydreaming. Not even Arizona has gone that far. Yet. ]
But if Arizona has to deal with the problem with no help from the feds, then they should do it whole hog. Or as Maximum Pig as possible. Should they kick out the feds from the border? Or should they call up the state militia and form a second line of defense a couple miles further in? And when the heck is New Mexico getting on board? Texas? California? Wisconsin? [ what, you thought all illegals are Mexicans? Oh hell to the no! At least 9 out of every 10 first generation Chinese in the USA are illegals, and most of them that didn’t wash up on the beaches of California came down from Canada. And let’s not forget the tens of thousands of illegal Irish and Portuguese in the Boston area. And how many hundred thousand eastern europeans are here on expired student visas? You can’t count that high. ]
It’s long past time to clean up the mess. Open borders is a disaster. Amnesty has been proven not to work. We can’t find work for our own citizens, so the millions that don’t belong here have to go.
