Illegal Aliens Sue U.S. Senate

In a strategy more bizarre than many other initiatives launched by left-wing extremists, a group of illegal aliens is filing suit against the U.S. Senate in an effort to force the government to grant them amnesty through a bill called the Dream Act.

In 2010, the bill was defeated in the Senate because of the threat by opponents to launch a filibuster, a technique in which a senator continues to speak during debate without allowing a vote.  Sixty votes are required to end debate and force a vote.

Extremists say the legislation must pass because illegal aliens need it.

"The lives of thousands of youth from all over the country, who constantly live in fear of deportation, were depending on this legislation to pass," said a statement from the plaintiffs.

The group, led by the left-wing Common Cause, claims that the Senate's long-standing parliamentary rules are "unconstitutional."

Under the Dream Act, illegal aliens under 36 years of age who have successfully evaded immigration law enforcement for a full five years would be granted amnesty and allowed to apply for legal resident status.  Once that is achieved, the former illegals could become citizens and then apply to bring family members into the country to join them.

Stephen Spaulding, staff counsel for Common Cause, said federal judges, not the Senate, should make the rules.  "They cannot adopt their own rules," he said, "and that's an issue we think the courts should settle."

Hispanics More Liberal Than U.S. Population

An opinion survey found that Hispanics in the U.S. are more likely than other Americans to describe themselves as "liberal."

The 2011 National Survey of Latinos by the Pew Hispanic Center found that the left-wing trend held true even among American-born Hispanics, with as many as 34 percent calling themselves "very liberal,"  compared to only 21 percent of the general U.S. public who refer to themselves as liberal.

Democrat Party strategist Robert Creamer advocates using immigration as an electoral weapon to dilute white voting strength.  Hispanics traditionally vote overwhelmingly for left-wing Democrats, while majorities of whites since the 1970s typically vote for Republican candidates for president.

 Immigrants Take Huge Chunk of U.S. Jobs

Immigrants are capturing huge chunks of available jobs in the U.S., in both skilled and unskilled labor sectors.

Immigrants account for as much as one-fourth of all those working in "information technology" -- known as the IT industry -- and high-tech manufacturing in the U.S., according to a report from the Brookings Institution.

This displacement of native-born American workers is due, in large part, to federal programs created by Congress to induce American employers to hire foreigners, many willing to work for less money than American workers are.  Visa programs for skilled workers such as the H1-B program that began in the 1990s, bring hundreds of thousands of foreign workers into the U.S. to compete for wages and jobs with U.S. college graduates.  As a result of the generous visa programs, the number of international students enrolled in U.S. universities has nearly tripled in recent decades, said the Brookings analysis.  Many of those students stay in the U.S. after college to take American jobs.

At the same time, Brookings found, immigrants account for as much as one-fifth of all construction, food service, and agricultural labor in the U.S.   And nearly 50 percent of people working in private households as domestic help were born outside the U.S.

 Rancher Barnett Slapped by Federal Court

An Hispanic federal judge ordered Arizona border rancher Roger Barnett to pay "punitive damages" to illegal aliens he caught trespassing on his ranch, even though voters approved a ballot measure in 2006 making illegal aliens ineligible for lawsuit damages.

Judge Frank Zapata said the new law could not protect Barnett, who was sued by left-wing attorneys representing the aliens from Mexico who were caught trespassing on Barnett's border ranch in 2004.  Barnett reportedly held the illegals against their will until immigration authorities arrived. 

Zapata said at the time the damages were first awarded in 2009, three of the illegals had achieved legal status, and a fourth had returned to Mexico, so she was no longer an illegal.

"Therefore, when punitive damages were awarded, none of the plaintiffs were present in Arizona in violation of federal immigration law," said Zapata.

Barnett faces having to pay $60,000 to the four aliens.

At least one state lawmaker is upset about the verdict.

"How incredibly silly that you've got people breaking the law, trespassing, doing this and that on personal property, and then you're handed punitive damage awards," lamented state Rep. Jim Weiers, of Phoenix, who helped write the ballot measure.

The Stupid Party at Work

The director of the Republican National Committee's official "Hispanic Outreach" effort on behalf of the Romney for President campaign complained at a news conference that President Obama is deporting too many illegal aliens.   However, the Romney campaign's web site complains that President Obama is "selectively" letting too many illegals avoid deportation.  Read the hilarious story of Republican incompetence by clicking here.

  Schumer Wants to Overturn Court

Left-wing Sen Charles Schumer, D-NY has vowed to introduce legislation to overturn a forthcoming Supreme Court ruling if it upholds Arizona's common sense law on illegal immigration.  Schumer said it was "dangerous to our democracy" for states like Arizona to enforce laws against illegal immigration. He said that's the federal government's job (which, of course, it hasn't been performing).  He also said he would try to overturn an earlier high court decision that upheld the authority of Arizona to require employers in the state to use the federal E Verify computer database to determine whether job applicants are lawfully entitled to work in the U.S. Phil Kent, spokesman for Americans for Immigration Control, said he hoped Schumer does try to force a vote in the Senate if the Arizona law is upheld.  "A vote to overturn the Arizona law will ultimately fail, because it will never pass the House," he said.  While Democrats control the Senate, Republicans are the majority in the House.  "Such a vote will show the American people which senators are in favor of illegal immigration.  Since most Americans support Arizona's law and oppose illegal immigration, any attempt by politicians to protect illegals will provide wonderful clarity for voters just in time for the November elections," said Kent.

Gun Banner Goes Nuts

Gun ban advocate Sarah Brady unleashed a torrent of wild, and sometimes X-rated curses in response to recent events that displeased her.  Because GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney addressed the annual convention of the National Rifle Association, Brady said Romney was "pro-death," and accused the NRA of mass murder and "racism."  Said Brady of Romney: "He is aligning himself with a lobby that is responsible for the deaths of thousands of Americans every year, a lobby that uses a mentality of fear and paranoia, tinged with just the right amount of racism..."  On her Twitter account, the unhinged gun-hater called Gov.  Bob McDonnell "Vriginia's vaginalistic Gov." whatever that means, and said he "has cooties, too" because he signed a bill repealing the state's one-gun-a-month purchase limit.  "Cooties"?  Yeah, she really said that.  She went on to call former Vice President Dick Cheney "the same old Dick."  Her foulest profanities were spit out at the NRA, calling it a "hate group" whose members are "misguided f***ers" and "fascist pigs."

Suicide of the West

American universities are infested with foreign spies, thanks to globalism and multiculturalist immigration policies. Frank Figliuzzi, the FBI's assistant director for counterintelligence, told an interviewer for Bloomberg.com that efforts by foreign governments to penetrate U.S.universities to steal technological research information have increased in the last five years.  "We have intelligence and cases indicating that U.S. universities are indeed a target of foreign intelligence services," he said.  It appears the biggest problem comes from Asia.  The Defense Department reported that attempts by China and other Asian countries to obtainclassified or proprietary information from U.S. schools increased by eightfold in 2010 over a year earlier.  Contributing to U.S. vulnerability is the attitude of some universities.  More than half of Stanford University's doctoral candidates in sciences and engineering come from outside the U.S. "Stanford does not, nor will it, restrict participation of students based on citizenship," bragged President John Hennessy.

Common Sense in Texas

Republican State Rep. Lyle Larson of Texas is calling on Mexican President Felipe Calderon to reimburse his state for the public services used by illegal aliens.  Larson, from San Antonio, said Mexico ought to pay back Texas for the annual $6 billion to $8 billion that Texas spends on health care, education, and other public services for the estimated 1.6 million illegal aliens in the state.  "If Mexico is unable to provide monetary compensation, we should be open to discussing other forms of payment," Larson said.  Mexican illegals working in the U.S. each year send billions of dollars back home to relatives, enriching Mexico's economy.

Americas's Changing Identity

An alarming 95 percent of Hispanics in the U.S. believe it is "important" to speak Spanish while living in the U.S., according to a poll by the Pew Research Center.  At the same time, most Hispanics -- 51 percent -- perfer to identify themselves by their country of origin rather than by the term "Hispanic" or "Latino."  They said they would prefer to be identified as "Mexican" or "Guatemalan," for example. Only 21 percent said they use the term "American" to describe themselves.

No Justice Yet for 9-11 Victims

Khalid Sheik Mohammed, the Al Qaeda mastermind behind the deadly 9-11 terror attacks, was captured back in 2003, but nine years later the U.S. government still hasn't executed him.  He and other conspirators were charged by a military commission back in 2008, but the case was suspended when the Obama administration announced it would hold a civilian trial for the monsters in New York City.  After widespread public outrage, the Obama administration backed down.  Since then, the killer and his accomplices have continued to escape justice while the U.S. taxpayers pay for their food and shelter. The absence of swift justice is a disservice to the families of those killed on 9-11, and it fuels the perception worldwide that the U.S. is a "paper tiger."

Political Blackmail Underway

Hispanic race activists are threatening corporations with what amounts to political blackmail if they fail to apply pressure to the state of Alabama to stop enforcing its recent law against illegal immigration.  A coalition group calling itself the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights went to a shareholder meeting of automaker Hyundai, which has factories in Alabama, to demand that the company pressure state officials to stop enforcement of the law and urge its repeal.  "In Alabama, Hyundai's money talks," said Eliseo Medina, secretary-treasurer of the radical left-wing Service Employees International Union, which is backing the blackmail effort.  "Hyundai has recognized this by initiating a major marketing campaign in the Latino community. But all that will come to nothing if the Hyundai brand becomes identified with hate and discrimination. Latinos are waiting to see whether Hyundai will stand with us or with human rights violators in Alabama."  The group said other targets of its campaign will include Daimler and Honda, which also have factories in the state.

L.A.'s Top Cop Won't Obey Law

In Los Angeles, illegal aliens need not fear breaking some laws, thanks to a decision by the city's police department to let them off the hook.  California state law requires police to impound the vehicles of drivers caught without valid driver's licenses.  But Police Chief Charlie Beck says that because most unlicensed drivers in L.A. are illegal aliens who need their cars to keep their illegally-obtained jobs, it would be "unfair" to enforce a law that affects them the most.  "It's about fairness," said the top cop. "It's about equal application of the law," he told a TV station.  Studies show unlicensed drivers are the most dangerous.  A 2011 study by AAA found that unlicensed drivers are five times more likely to be involved in fatal crashes and more likely to flee the scene of any accident.

Self Defense Under Attack

America's leading Democrats actually believe that self-defense in the face of assault in a public place is wrong.  Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, chairwoman of the National Democratic Party, has called for repeal of her state's so-called "stand your ground" law, passed in 2005.  Under the law, a person who is criminally attacked in any place where they have a right to be, is not obligated to flee.  Victims may even use deadly force if they reasonably believe it is necessary to prevent death or serious bodily harm.  Before the law was passed, victims were obligated to try to run away.  To repeal "stand your ground" tells criminals their chances of incurring resistance are low, thus encouraging assaults, and it tells victims they face prosecution for fighting back.  Only a suicidal society would seek to encumber self-defense for the innocent and enhance the power of criminals.  By definition, people -- and a society -- that won't fight back are doomed.

Propaganda as News

The corporate media's callous propaganda lynching of Florida's neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman in the aftermath of the shooting death of Trayvon Martin was a masterpiece of manipulation.  One example is a story by ABC News correspondents David Muir and Olivia Katrandjian, which began this way: "The attorney counseling George Zimmerman, who shot unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin as he was walking home from the store with a bag of Skittles..."  First of all, Martin wasn't shot while "he was walking home."  According to eyewitnesses, he was engaged in a physical altercation with Zimmerman.  Now, about those Skittles.  Pray tell, what does carrying a bag of Skittles got to do with it?  Well, nothing at all, actually. Absolutely nothing.  Unless you are deliberating trying to create a particular kind of picture in the reader's mind.  And what kind of picture might that be?  Accompanying the story was picture of Martin as he appeared at age 12, looking very cherubic and boyish, unlike the over 6-foot young adult he really appeared to be.  We don't know all the facts of the shooting.  It might well turn out that Martin was indeed an innocent victim.  We don't know as of this writing.  But we do that ABC News decided to take sides before the facts were out, and deliberately sought to discredit Zimmerman.

National Review Embarrassment

National Review, once the flagship publication of the American right, has become a painful embarrassment to the entire conservative movement. Before all the relevant facts were known in the Florida shooting death of Trayvon Martin, editor Rich Lowry jumped to the conclusion that left-wing racist and convicted slanderer Al Sharpton "and his usual complement of allies are right" that the police "made the wrong call in letting [George] Zimmerman [ -- the shooter -- ] off.  The stench coming from NR in its obsequious deference to the anti-white overtones of the "get Zimmerman" media lynching ought to be enough to discredit the magazine in the eyes of any serious conservative.
