Latino Demonstrators Parade "Multiculturalism"!

Multiculturalism at Work in America... GAG!!!

For better than two centuries American got along quite well with it’s bi-cultural society. (The Northern culture and the Southern Culture.) Even so, we still managed to have one savage war as a result, but we managed to stifle our dislike of the other’s culture in order to live peaceably on this continent.

All that changed in the mid 20th century with the advent of the purveyors and practitioners of Multiculturalism.

The Multiculturalists worked tirelessly infiltrating our schools, our government, our churches, until every facet of American life was exposed to the wonders of multiculturalism.

No longer do we have a distinct American culture. Nope, we have a multitude of cultures all squeezed together within the borders of the United States… and we are about to explode!

The first explosion, we called the American Civil War, was at a time when there were but two cultures in this nation. It was the most savage, bloody, period in our history.

America stands at the threshold of an internal conflict, which will make the War Between The States look like a Sunday School Picnic!

Illegal immigration is the fuse, which will set off the coming explosion. And that fuse is burning fiercely!

If you doubt my predictions here, I direct your attention to the demonstrations in the streets of America, over the past weekend, and the past few days. That, dear hearts, is multiculturalism at work in America. Criminals marching in our street defying the law to arrest them and attesting to how proud they are, of being illegal immigrants to America… and… to top it off… they have the unmitigated nerve to attempt to force us to make citizens of them!

By the way, did anyone notice the Mexican flag they carried?

How long do you think those who want them arrested, deported, or locked up for 20 years, in a federal prison camp, and out of our hospital emergency rooms, out of our schools, off our welfare rolls, and out of our country, are going to sit idly by and watch them parade their pride at having rubbed the US’s nose in it’s own urine? How long?

I submit, it won’t be long.

The bill passed out of the Senate Judiciary Committee Monday night does nothing but set the match to a powder keg. It is a betrayal of America. The bill includes, as I predicted, amnesty!

For details on the Senate Bill, which will be debated over the next two weeks, go to “Red State”.

As for Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, I sure hope he has not bought a home in Washington, or signed a long lease on a dwelling there. In all likelihood he will be coming home as soon as he stands for election again. His South Carolina constituents have had all they want of his moderate to liberal politics. South Carolina is one of the most Republican states in America (A short time ago, it was THE most Republican state in the Union). It is also a bastion of conservatism. They are not going to put up with Graham’s brand of politics much longer.

This Senate bill is gong to run headlong into the Bill from the US House. The House Bill is a different bill than that of the Senate. The House is the governing body closest to the American citizen.

And finally, at least for this post, the President is in even deeper trouble with his conservative base. You know, the first law of “HOLE DIGGING” IS THAT WHEN YOU FIND YOURSELF IN ONE… STOP DIGGING! Somehow the President has missed this common sense law altogether.

The President has a Mexican sister-in-law. I don’t know if that is what’s coloring his perception on illegal immigration, or not. But something is!

In all likelihood there will be no bill passed and signed into law this year.

However, in the meantime, it would behoove our Latino visitors to assume a low profile. If they continue the their public demonstrations in support of illegality, sooner or later, they are going to be met with a mob which has taken the extreme opposite view and people are going to get hurt!

So, let’s round them up, deport them, and get those fences and walls built, pronto!

Anger Toward Illegal Immigrants nears Boiling Point!

A “Boiling Point”, or as some say, a “Tipping Point” is near, as Legal Americans have lost all patience with those who have broken into, and illegally entered, our country.

When illegals take to the streets of America’s cities, by the half millions, and parade their defiance of US Law in the faces of the people of the nation they have raped, while waving the flag of a foreign country, it is a call to action!

When our political leaders do not have the fortitude to pass legislation to rid this nation of the pestilence of illegal immigration, it is a call to action!

When the law enforcement agencies of the nation shirk their duty and refuse to enforce the laws on the books, it is a call to action!

I have come to believe that our leaders are so out of touch with their constituents they have no idea how angry we are at the illegals… and… at them… for their spineless contortions to create legislation to cover their covetousness for minority voters and cheap labor!

The anger out here in the hinterlands, in “fly-over” country, is palpable. The heat of our anger is akin to touching one’s finger to a hot stove. Somebody is going to get burned!

Look, it’s this simple: either put the US military on the Southern Border to secure it, and seal it, or put the US military on the streets of America… between the mobs of “illegals” and “angry LEGAL Americans”. That tipping point, that boiling point, is fast approaching.

If the Law enforcement authorities and the government authorities won’t enforce the laws, how long will it be before US citizens do it for them?

I found an insightful piece over at “OPINIONNATION” I recommend you read at:

http://fromopinionnation.blogspot.com/2006/03/alright-enough-is-enough-secure-border_29.html

The rumblings have begun. This situation can get very ugly, very fast! Those of you in the “Hallowed Halls of Congress” need to reassess your stance on illegal immigration... and do it quickly. Your proposed bills to “solve” the situation have only created more consternation among your constituents. You really need to get out more. Get in touch with the people who sent you there. You will be surprised to learn that we are laughing, bitterly, scornfully, at your lack of understanding as regards the security of our Southern Border with Mexico. Put some” feelers” out in your Districts and in your states and learn just how angry we really are. You apparently have no idea!

This is not going away…not until the border is secured and the illegals are rounded up, and deported… and… new laws are enacted to stop the rape of our country by foreign illegals.

Talk about “Home Invasion”!

If necessary, suspend the Posse Comitatus Law, and get the National Guard, and the Reserves, into the field, at once, to begin rounding these illegals up and herd them to, and, across the border.

I am a conservative Republican. I have been all my adult life. I am in my mid sixties and I am at the verge of leaving the Republican Party because our leaders have proven themselves to be “pretenders”, concerned only for their appearance before the cameras, and the microphones, of the mainstream media. They have grown fat on the “good life” of Washington until they are afraid of actually “representing” their constituents for fear of losing their splendid, soft, positions in the nation’s capital.

Our nation is being over run with illegal immigrants from Mexico and, God only knows where else! Good men have bled and died to secure this country in many crises before todays. And yet, the spineless Congress, we currently have, is inclined to allow this wonderful, marvelous, country to be lost through “inaction” and “lack of will”. It is insane!

I’m worried that this situation is headed toward a climax, which will go down in the history books. And it doesn’t have to be this way.

To our legislators: in the name of all that is good, kind, and holy, we don’t need a new law! We simply need YOU to enforce the laws you have already made!

Don’t tell me the illegals can’t be rounded up. Put a bounty on them and our jails will be over flowing by the weekend!

Don’t pluck at my heartstrings by telling me we can’t “tear families apart”! Yes we can! They should have thought of that before crashing the border!

Don’t tell me we can’t send them back into their country because their government is corrupt. Why not? Send them back and let them clean up their own government… as we intend to do at the next election!

Get the Hell OUT!

There are 12 million illegals living in the United States of America. 12 million! At least 12 million times the US border has been crossed illegally! This has got to stop.

I took a look at the demonstrations over the past weekend, and over the past few days, and I could only stare, wide-eyed, as my jaw dropped! There were no federal authorities there to round those people up and check their citizenship! None! There they were, in broad daylight, marching and protesting that we, legal US citizens, are angry that THEY broke into OUR country!

They act like we OWE them! We OWE them nothing! Nothing! Even less than nothing. They are upset that we want to treat them like criminals. They ARE criminals!

A regional paper said a few days ago that we couldn’t keep people out who only wanted to better themselves. Yes, we can! And we must! At least until they make use of the proper channels and enter the US legally!

I am tired, no, I’m past tired, of seeing my tax dollars go to care for people who just broke into the country.

It’s time to warn Mexico that if they continue encouraging their poor to illegally cross the border, into the US, the people of the US are going to react and it won't be pretty. Maybe the Mexican oil would offset the cost of supporting them. Well, I mean, they want to be Americanos, so darned much, why don’t we make the whole country of Mexico the 51st state and be done with it! I mean, we ARE helping support them, even now!

Until the US can get it’s immigration under control, we need to stop ALL immigration, legal as well as illegal. Take down Lady Liberty, dismantle her, and ship her back to France! (OK, so that’s a bit much, but I think you get the passion I bring to the subject at hand!)

This immigration boil has needed lancing for a long time now. It’s gonna hurt for a little while and then it will feel SO MUCH BETTER!

You folks in the northern tier of states may not feel the invasion as we do. Down here, in the southern tier, we are being over run. And we are fed up! When the South gets fed up, it tends to make life miserable for those in charge until something gets done!

We want that border closed and sealed. We want those in the country found and put in prison. No more trucking them back across the border so they can come right back as soon as the moon rises. No, we want them put away in prisons for a long, long, time.

While we’re at it, we ought to serve notice on Mexico that any more incursions by their military across that border will be considered and act of war and the US military will act accordingly.

This is not over. The Southern States, especially the border states have had it. It IS going to stop. One way or the other. If the current crop of politicians in DC can’t do it, then we’ll throw them out and put someone in who can. That piece of garbage the Senate Judiary Committee turned out, earlier this week, isn't worth the paper it is written on , insofar as being a deterrent to illegal immigration. None! Frankly, we don't need NEW LAWS! We need the old laws enforced!

We conservative Republicans are so angry at out party right now; the only way the GOP can win in ’06 and ’08 is for the Democrats to run Hillary!

Mushrooms in the Desert


The world’s media is reporting that the US Pentagon has plans for using nuclear weapons, peremptorily, as a deterrent to the use of WMD’s against the US, or US interests around the world. Reports say the US Military has been told to prepare to use nuclear weapons, in their Theatre of Operations, effectively.

This new approach by the Pentagon is titled “Doctrine for Joint Nuclear Operations” and is said to be an attempt by the US Military to adapt to today’s threats not only from unfriendly States, but from “non state entities” as well.

Commanders of US forces, around the world, are directed to make plans and prepare for using nuclear weapons in their geographic areas. The directive would allow US forces to use nuclear weapons even when there is no threat of WMD’s.

News sources are reporting that Secretary of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld, has not signed the directive. Presidential approval for the nuclear strike would be required before the nuclear weapons are actually used.

Our reaction? It’s about time!

There is no real purpose served by having our men, and women, slaughtered on battlefields anymore. Tactical nukes can get the job done with little, if any loss of personnel on our part.

We could stop that search in the mountains of “Tora-Bora” and just nuke the place. That’s much more effective… not to mention quick, as well.

I have been expecting this action for some time now. This is one of the unintended consequences of the “anti-war movement”. They raise Cain and make life miserable for the politicians of the country and, assisted by the MSM, around the world, they work together to stir up the public’s anger if a war lasts more than three weeks. If we have a handful of American soldiers killed, or wounded, they use that as fuel for the fire they keep burning under the feet of the President and Congress. So, the politicians have to do something to ensure that all future wars are short and as near to ”injury free” as is possible.

Enter nuclear weapons!

This just points up the dangers of the non-military types continually applying pressure on the Pentagon. Eventually, the Pentagon will answer. Chances are nearly 100% against the anti-war crowd’s approval of the Pentagon’s answer.

So, the Pentagon has issued this new directive. A directive I happen to like, actually.

Now, if we can only get our military disengaged from the program of “Nation Building”, I’d be even happier!

We, here at Insight, urge the Sec. Def. to sign this directive, post haste.

Enough is Enough! Seal the Border with Mexico, NOW!

Illegal Immigration is swamping the US. The government seems set on doing nothing of any substance about illegal immigration, so the states will have to take matters into their own hands and seal their borders themselves with the aid of each state’s National Guard troops.

This may well be one of the powers left to the states by the constitution. It needs to be checked.

Someone has suggested that each southern border state drop back a half mile, or a mile, from the actual border of Mexico and erect a fence or wall which would interlock with their neighboring state’s wall, or fence, and create a second border within each state. Check points could be set up and manned by Guardsmen, and the fence could be patrolled by each state’s (armed) National Guardsmen.

The second border would create a no-man’s land within which illegals, getting past the US Border Patrol, would be trapped. In the southwestern desert, this may entail some deaths on the part of the illegals.

Those who do get through both fences, and are captured, should be assigned to work camps, set up in the southwestern desert, for ten to fifteen years and be forced to work at hard labor until their sentence is complete. Then, they should be transported back to Mexico, or whatever their country of origin.

It may well seem far fetched, and even hard, but it’s coming, or something very like it, is coming.

Let’s face it, the two, political parties, in power now, will not do anything about illegal immigration. They have their reasons. The Democrats see the illegals as voters and the Republicans see them as cheap labor. Cuts to the quick, doesn’t it? But, there you have it.

It has become clear the only relief we folks in the southern states will get is relief we get for ourselves by taking matters into our own hands.

The US Border Patrol is ineffective, period. We need “state troops” on the borders of each state bordering Mexico. Armed state troops.

Americans need to say no to any amnesty program for illegals already in the country. Round them up and intern them for fifteen or twenty years.

We know how to stop this flood of illegals across our border and we have the capability. What our political leaders lack is the will to do what needs to be done.

Enough is enough!

Let’s have a candidate for President who has the cajones to run on stopping illegal immigration. He, or she, already has my vote!

(ACTION ALERT!) An Alien Nation Within a Nation

An Alien Nation within a Nation

An “alien nation within a nation” is a pretty good assessment of the make up of the population of America today. It is estimated there are 20 million illegal immigrants within our borders, even now, with more breaking and entering our country even as I write this.

It has always been the policy, and the law of the land in America, that those who are in this country illegally be rounded up and sent back to their countries.

No longer!

Now, Senators McCain and Kennedy want to grant those who are already in the US, illegally, amnesty! It looks as if their Bill has a good chance of getting through the Senate.

We can't allow that to happen.

No More "Anchor Babies"!

“Anchor Babies” must go!







Tired of illegals coming into the US pregnant and delivering their babies here and collecting off the US Government, and state governments, and running your taxes through the ceiling? So am I, and so are several million other Americans.

How do they get away with it?

The14th Amendment to the US Constitution, that’s how. Section one, of the 14th amendment, was written to ensure that former slaves would enjoy full citizenship in the US. But, it has been stretched to encompass the babies of those who have entered this country illegally. Once that baby is born, they have their “anchor” here and at age 21 that now “grown” baby, can petition the government to bring his family into the states as well.

Lets look at the amendment as it is written in the US Constitution:

14th. Amendment to the U.S. Constitution:

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.

There is the problem. Section one of the 14th amendment. It HAS to be changed.

The “Citizenship Reform Act of 2005” has been introduced by Georgia Congressman Nathan Deal, a Republican. It is designed to deny US citizenship to children born to illegal immigrants in the US.

Estimates are that over 300,000 babies are born to illegal immigrants, every year, here in the states. The US is now the only country, which allows this practice. Ireland did, for a while, but quickly changed the law when it became obvious that pregnant immigrants from Africa were flooding their country every year.

The term Anchor Babies” is used to identify babies born in the US from illegal alien mothers. Under the Immigration Act of 1965, those babies can, at the age of 21, bring in their family as permanent residents of the US. Let’s go back and look a little closer at the 14th amendment. It was ratified in 1868. It’s intent was to protect the rights of native born Black Americans recently freed from slavery.

The intent of the 14th amendment was laid out for us in 1866 by Senator Jacob Howard who said: “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."

Theses days, however, illegal aliens are defying US law and flooding across our borders and having babies at the rate of over 300,000 (babies) a year.

So how the heck did this happen? How as this been allowed to happen?

It happened simply because we (The US) is/are adhering to article 25 of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Not the US Constitution! Here is what that article says:

Article 25.(United Nations Declaration of Human Rights)

(1) Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.

(2) Motherhood and childhood are entitled to special care and assistance. All children, whether born in or out of wedlock, shall enjoy the same social protection.

Do you see the problem? Again we have the United Nations in our business.

US Taxpayers are footing the bills for their birth, medical care, their education, (even college), and their food, darn near everything. It’s not Uncle Sam any more. It’s Uncle Sucker!

Now here’s the problem with Representative Deal’s bill. If enacted, it will be a law. It will be a law, which will not stand the scrutiny of the US Supreme Court. (At least not the liberal court we have now.) So, the only way to get this Citizenship Reform Act into law is to amend the US Constitution. If passed by both houses of the Congress, and signed by the President, ratification by the states would come almost overnight. I don’t see this happening. Not with this President.

Lean on your Congressmen, Congresswomen, and Senators, to get this “Citizenship Reform” into the Constitution. It is past time to right this wrong. It is WAY past time.

There is an alternative, however. That is to enforce the 14th amendment’s original intent. But to do that, will necessitate having a different Supreme Court than we have now. A conservative court made up of “originalists”. Currently we have two “Originalists” on the court. That’s two out of nine. We need at least three more. We have a chance to get two of those three coming very soon. (Since this writing, we have added two more originalists to the Court. We are still short one.)

Look, we Americans have to take back our country. This flood of illegal immigrants and “Anchor Babies” must be stopped. We know how. Do we have the will?

Maybe the better question is: Do we have a choice? Do we wish to continue as a viable country and not slide into the template for a third world banana republic? For that is where we are headed… as straight as a Martin to its gourd.

Contact your Congressperson and your Senators and let them know how you feel about this. It will only find its way through the Congress with grassroots support. Push them at every opportunity.

May God save America, for we Americans seem unable to do so.

Birthright Citizenship in US no Longer Acceptable!

This Post First Ran in November of 2005!

Birthright Citizenship in the US no Longer Acceptable!

"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."… 14th Amendment, US Constitution

So, finally, we are going to get around to correcting a problem this country has had since the end of the Civil War and Reconstruction. I refer of course to the citizenship clause of the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution. To be even more exact… the “Birthright Citizenship” clause.

Just because one is born within the boundaries of the US should not guarantee citizenship in this country. If the parents are citizens of the US… then fine. The child will automatically be a citizen. But, if the parents are not citizens of the US then the baby will be a citizen of the country to which his, or her, parents have allegiance.

We simply cannot afford the drain on our treasury caused by “Anchor Babies” any longer.

U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo, of Colorado is pushing the idea of an amendment change in the US House and is having more success than one would think.

The 14th Amendment was proposed back in 1865 and was aimed at making former slaves full citizens of the US. Nobody, and I mean nobody, foresaw the influx of pregnant Mexicans, into the United States, in order to have a baby and have that baby be an instant citizen and then reap the harvest of goodies from our generous welfare programs.

The colorful history of the 14th amendment leaves a huge question mark, for some, as to whether it is legal in the first place. It failed to get the votes of 3/4ths of the states, which is required under Article Five of the Constitution for ratification. The Southern States, as well as the Border States, refused to ratify it. That ticked off the Congress and they answered with the Reconstruction Act of 1867 which, for all practical purposes placed the Southern States under military law and suspended their citizenship in the US. In order for the Southern States to get their citizenship restored, they were forced to ratify the 14th amendment.

Well, sparks flew, up in New Jersey and Ohio, and they withdrew their ratification. Without the ratification from New Jersey and Ohio the Congress did not have the 3/4ths vote of the states required for ratification. Eventually, though, New Jersey and Ohio did ratify it and Congress went ahead and passed the 14th Amendment into law… with, finally, the constitutionally required number of states ratifying it!

I didn’t make this up. I couldn’t. This is pure, raw, US History. Look it up for yourselves.

So, here we are, in 2005, (2006 now) looking at a possible re-write of the 14th. It needs to be re-written badly.

It needs to be re-written simply and it should spell out that if the parents of a newborn are citizens of the US, then so is the baby. If the parents are not citizens of the US, neither is the baby. That’s all. It’s that simple. But, the left, and the Rinos, will fight this proposal, most likely, to death.

Here at IoF we wish Congressman Tancredo all the luck in the world and we urge our readers to write your Congressperson and Senators and ask them to support this proposal and lets correct a mistake made 138 (139 now) years ago.

This needs to be done and done quickly!

Creating a Needless World-Wide Panic!

It has become literally impossible lately to open a newspaper or turn on a radio, or TV, and not hear, or see, dire warnings about the horrible crisis the world, and the US in particular, faces, in the coming months and years, as a result of… no… not Global Warming, this time (that is an entirely different "panic button" issue). This time it is the Avian or Bird flu.

Having watched the way organizations, which depend upon the largesse of government money to operate, and even exist, tend to present whatever it is they have latched onto for their government gravy train of money, I have concluded we are being lambasted with a hoax.

That is not to say the Bird Flu does not exist, for it does. But to scare the living daylights out of a few billion people with so little evidence to support their proclamation of an eminent pandemic, I think, is irresponsible.

Sure we have chickens and turkeys, and all sorts of birds, in the US, too. But we don’t live with them!

Beware... any time the government becomes interested in your health!

There is something more at work here, I'm afraid. I’m not a "conspiracy nut", but this much noise from the egghead section of our health organizations tends to spook me.

The last time the US got involved in heading off a flue pandemic they wound up killing a rather large group of Americans… needlessly.

On February 5, 1976 an army recruit at Fort Dix said he felt tired and weak. He died the next day and four of his fellow soldiers were later hospitalized. Two weeks after his death, health officials announced that swine flu was the cause of death. Alarmed public health officials decided that action must be taken to head off a major pandemic and they urged that every person in the US be vaccinated for the disease. The vaccination program was plagued by delays and public relations problems but about 24% of the population was vaccinated by the time the program was cancelled.

The vaccine was blamed for 25 deaths (more people died from the vaccine than died from the swine flu itself) and a small, but statistically significant, rise in the incidence of a rare illness called Guillain-Barré syndrome or GBS.

Then:

In February 2004, avian influenza virus was detected in pigs in Vietnam, increasing fears of the emergence of new variant strains. It is feared that if the avian influenza virus combines with a human influenza virus (in a pig or a human), the new subtype created could be both highly contagious and highly lethal in humans. Such a subtype could cause a global influenza pandemic, similar to the Spanish Flu, or the lower mortality pandemics such as the Asian Flu and the Hong Kong Flu.

From October 2004 to February 2005, some 3,700 test kits of the 1957 Asian Flu virus were accidentally spread around the world from a lab in the US.

In May 2005, scientists urgently call nations to prepare for a global influenza pandemic that could strike as much as 20% of the world's population.

In October 2005, cases of the Avian flu (the deadly strain H5N1) were identified in Turkey. EU Health Commissioner Markos Kyprianou said: "We have received now confirmation that the virus found in Turkey is an avian flu H5N1 virus. There is a direct relationship with viruses found in Russia, Mongolia and China." Cases of bird flu were also identified shortly thereafter in Romania, and then Greece. Possible cases of the virus have also been found in Croatia, Bulgaria and in the United Kingdom. However, by the end of October only 67 people had died as a result of H5N1 which was atypical of previous influenza pandemics.

Despite popular newspaper reports, Avian flu cannot yet be categorised as a "pandemic".
(From Wikipedia)

Back in October, of 2005, I write the following:

The Avian Flu. Anything like the Swine Flu??


What the dickens is going on with the Avian flu, the media, and the politicians?

I have had any number of people approach me, in the past few days, and exclaim, “You know, if the Press keeps on, they’re gonna talk people into getting the Avian (Bird) Flu!”

Well, I spent over half my life in the media and I know a little about shaping and guiding public opinion. Seems to be, all the earmarks of a full out propaganda campaign are at work here.

Now, lets see, there have been, worldwide, only 60 (Actually 67 as of this writing in October of 2005) cases of Avian flu… right? And all the cases were in Asia… right? How many thousands of chickens have been slaughtered? A lot.

In the past few days the airwaves in America have been filled, to overflowing, with talking heads telling us that the sky is falling! The end of the world is nigh! The Bird flu is coming! It’s coming and it’s going to kill you, and your family, and wipe out civilization, as we know it, on this planet!

That sound about right?

I mean… did I catch the tenor of the panic-stricken voices shouting: “Pandemic”! “Pandemic”!

Now, take a deep breath, and sit back, and allow me to remind you another such campaign to invoke panic in the American populace.

Ever hear of the Swine Flu scare in 1976? Oh yeah, it was a mess. The National Immunization Program failed. A lot of people WERE immunized, but the epidemic never appeared! Never! To make matters worse, hundreds of Americans were killed, or injured, (including those who wound up with Guillain-Barré syndrome) as a result of the inoculation given them by the government. Some 40 million Americans were inoculated for the Swine flu. The Swine flue epidemic never appeared. I repeat: It never appeared!

Millions of dollars spent, people frightened, hundreds killed (and injured) by the vaccine, and no epidemic.

It has been nearly 30 years since that fiasco. Basically one generation has expired. But those of us still on the “right side of the grass” remember that disaster and are not eager to see it again.

However, it sure appears that between the docs, the press, and the politicians… that is exactly where we are headed.

So, next time you hear “Avian Flu”… think Swine Flu. Remember, many more people were killed, in the US, from the inoculation to prevent the Swine flu than were killed by the flu itself. Let’s not do that again!

I have concluded there is a group of people, on this tiny little planet, who simply do not feel important if they are not at the spear point of a worldwide “scare”. Let’s see: there’s Global Warming, Nuclear winter, an asteroid striking the earth, HIV, famine, and now... the Bird Flu. If all these fail, they can always bring back the time honored Bubonic Plague, the “Black Plague”! Of course all these warnings come attached to a warning that everyone on earth will be wiped out, or, nearly everyone.

It takes very little, it seems, to frighten the moneygrubbers at the UN and they are among the first to climb aboard the bandwagon to raise money from “voluntary” donations from concerned member nations, which, in turn, get it from the tax money of their “frightened nearly to death” citizens.

The US may well have a few cases of Bird flu. It would be foolish to think otherwise. But to project it into a world-wide pandemic, at this point, is , in my view, unwise and needlessly frightening the masses.

You can bet that the minute the first case of Bird Flu shows up in the US, Hospitals and doctor’s offices, all over the nation, will be flooded with people who know, beyond a doubt, that they have Bird Flu and they will demand treatment.

Most of them will not have it, and will never get it, but our medical community will be "overloaded" and people who are truly sick will not get necessary treatment and lives will be lost. I’m concerned that this is the scenario the “Bird Flu Scare” has set into motion.

Surely, we are better than this! Surely, we Americans will not be herded, like sheep, by fear!

What’s needed here is calm, clear, thinking. Those attempting to create a panic should be told to back off. Let’s see some real science on this and not the “pop” science we get so much of today. Let’s not have a replay of the Swine Flu Scare of 1976. The sun WILL come up tomorrow and most of us will be alive to see it. Bird Flu, or not!

The "Religion of Peace" to Kill Another Christian!

Abdul Rahman, the Afghan Muslim who converted to Christianity, now faces death as a result. His loving neighbors, those “moderate” practitioners of Islam, the "Religion of Peace", as we all know, are calling for his beheading. He has been told to recant and his life will be spared. Like Martin Luther, the ole reformer himself, Rahman refuses to recant.

The folks over at “Designer Notes” have “nailed" it. We recommend you visit their site and read their interesting take on the 12-century shenanigans of the Religion of Peace.

A number of folks are demanding the US step in and DO SOMETHING. I expect there will be some Sub Rosa negotiations, but I expect very little to be said or done in public.

This is one of the downsides to nation building. Frankly, we’re not good at it. I suspect this is just an example of what will happen when the US troops leave Afghanistan. I fully expect them to revert back to their former status with weeks or months.

To do proper Nation Building, a nation could take notes from Peter the Great of Russia. He literally dragged Russia into modern times by the scruff of the neck. Sooner, or later, I’m afraid the US, and the west in it’s entirety, will have to realize, and admit, that there is a certain part of the world, which refuses to join the modern world. Eventually, we will have to simply wall them off and allow them to live out their lives in squalor, in a dark ages feudal system of their own making, until they perish, or kill each other off. In any event we need to isolate them from the remainder of the world until they cease to exist. The only other option we have is called genocide and the modern world frowns on that.

Perspective on the 2400 Dead Americans in Iraq War

Somewhere, somehow, Americans got it into their heads that the US could fight and win a war with no causalities. I blame, of course, part of that on Clinton’s high altitude war in Bosnia. You can punish an enemy from the air, but you cannot conquer an enemy short of having boots on the ground and taking and holding ground. Now, when you put armed soldiers on the ground to face off with the enemies soldiers, also armed to the teeth, people are going to get killed. That is a fact of war!

The US has been in Iraq for three years last Saturday. In that three-year period we have lost 2400 American troops killed in the war. Look closely at that figure … 2400.

Now, I’m not going to hit you with the old saw that any death is a bad death… because it isn’t true. If a soldier gives his life so that others may live, or so that others may be free, or to help provide safety for his family and his country, then that soldier has not died in vain and his death is not bad.

Let me see if we can put those 2400 dead US soldiers in some kind of perspective:

In three years 2400 US servicemen and women have been killed

In that same 3-year period 120,000 Americans were killed in Automobile accidents.

In that same three-year period 45, 000 Americans were killed in falls.

In that same three-year period 27,000 Americans were killed from poison.

In that same three-year period 12,000 Americans were killed by drowning.

Do you see how the 2400 deaths of American servicemen, and service women, has been skewed to make it appear that our troops are being slaughtered in Iraq? Now, why would anyone do that? Simple. It’s the crowd of “peaceniks” who support dictators and brutal regimes, and hate America, who use relatively low casualty figures to gin up emotions and then they direct those emotions in the direction they want them to go… and that is… to make America, and America’s President, look as bad, in the eyes of the world, as it is within their power to do.

Never forget, they have the Mainstream Media on THEIR side. The Propaganda Machine of the left is in full throat condemning America for every bad thing in the world, real or imagined.

The people of America need to get a grip! Stop whining long enough to see the damage such behavior causes our troops in Iraq. Understand that such behavior causes deaths among American troops. Understand such behavior emboldens our enemies. Not to mention that such behavior makes America, all of us, look like a paper tiger, a nations of wussies!

Have you noticed that the bulk of this Hate America behavior is coming from the Baby Boomer crowd? Frankly, I trust their kids more, with the security of America, than I do that generation of spoiled brats!

The men and women wearing the uniform of the US Military deserve the respect of every American. They are that thin line standing between America and absolute slavery in a theocracy.

And finally, as for any American “would be” comedians who think they are better prepared to make military decisions because they are better educated than the American military man, guess who I’m gonna choose to go back to back with in a fight? Huh?

Coming soon: War with Iran!

Our Friends over at "Opinionnation" have it nailed!

We recommend this post:

http://fromopinionnation.blogspot.com/2006/03/iran-inevitable-war.html

There comes a time to "fish or cut bait". That time has come. The US has little choice other than to reduce Iran to a pile of smoking rubble. They persist in poking the Tiger with their pointed sticks. The Tiger is about to turn and like the "Lady from Niger", they'll wind up inside the Tiger.

The whiners really need to sit down and shut up. The US Sedition Laws are on the books to be used and the time is approaching when those laws will need to be enforced. We are up against that line right now.

If you don't have the reguired "guts" to do what is necessary to save America, then kindly do us the courtesy of sitting down, and shutting up, so the rest of us can be about the business of saving your sorry behinds... AGAIN!

The time is at hand to stand up for America and no longer tolerate those who will not.

Open letter to American Muslims

Some comments, by which, we were impressed. This post is worthy of your time and consideration.

Open Letter to American Muslims

These are excerpts from Airline Captain John Maniscalco in Front page Magazine and it really hit home with me:

I've been trying to say this since 9-11 but you worry me. I wish you didn't. I wish when I walked down the streets of this country that I love, that your color and culture still blended with the beautiful human landscape we enjoy in this country. But you don't blend in anymore. I notice you, and it worries me. I notice you because I can't help it anymore. People from your homelands, professing to be Muslims, have been attacking and killing my fellow citizens and our friends for more than 20 years now. I don't fully understand their grievances and hate but I know that nothing can justify the inhumanity of their attacks. On September 11, nineteen ARAB-MUSLIMS hijacked four jetliners in my country. They cut the throats of women in front of children and brutally stabbed to death others. They took control of those planes and crashed them into buildings killing thousands of proud fathers, loving sons, wise grandparents, elegant daughters, best friends, favorite coaches, fearless public servants, and children's mothers. The Palestinians celebrated, The Iraqis were overjoyed as was most of the Arab world.So I notice you now. I don't want to be worried. I don't want to be consumed by the same rage and hate and prejudice that has destroyed the soul of these terrorists. But I need your help. As a rational American, trying to protect my country and family in an irrational and unsafe world, I must know how to tell the difference between you, and the Arab/Muslim terrorist.How do I differentiate between the true Arab/Muslim-Americans and the Arab/Muslims in our communities who are attending our schools, enjoying our parks, and living in OUR communities under the protection of OUR constitution, while they plot the next attack that will slaughter these same good neighbors and children? The events of September 11th changed the answer. It is not my responsibility to determine which of you embraces our great country, with ALL of its religions, with ALL of its different citizens, with all of its faults. It is time for every Arab/Muslim in this country to determine it for me.I want to know, I demand to know, and I have a right to k now whether or not you love America. Do you pledge allegiance to its flag? Do you proudly display it in front of your house, or on your car?

Slavery in the North? You're Darned Right!

Last year I made some 8 or 9 addresses, to various audiences, about the Confederacy and the way history has been skewed, and revised, to cover-up the North’s involvement in, and complicity with, the Slave Trade in America.

One point I make to every audience is... at the beginning of hostilities in the “War Between the States”, the two cities in America with the most slaves per capita were: Charleston, SC, and New York City.

The New England states were the engine of the American Slave Trade. They had the fleets of slave ships and they had the rum distilleries with which to make rum from sugar, which they bought from the Caribbean Islands. The New England slavers used the rum to purchase African slaves from the Arab and African slavers on the continent of Africa.

This is the truth about the sorry story of slavery in America. As much as some would like to believe… nobody’s hands were clean, in America, when it comes to slavery.

Now, some, in the Northern States, are beginning to get the word out… beginning to correct the record so that it is historically correct and not politically correct.

For more on this interesting movement go here:

http://www.cnn.com/2006/EDUCATION/03/17/teaching.slavery.ap/index.html

Slavery is an awful, awful, blight on the history of the US. Nevertheless, we were in it up to our necks. All of us, North and South alike. We can never hope to recovery fully from the stain slavery has left upon our land until we recognize that we are all guilty, North and South alike. The South long ago understood it’s part in slavery and moved toward ridding itself of that stain by not denying it, but admitting it, and vowing to never allow anything even remotely like it to happen again in our land. When our brothers and sisters in the North do the same, then we will begin the long process of healing. Until they do, it will be an open sore subject to causing lots of pain and suffering.

I have advocated, for a very long time, that the history of the War Between the States and the story of Slavery be told in its entirety, leaving nothing, and no one, out. Americans need to know the truth about that era. We also need to understand that to judge the Americans of the 19th century by the standards of the 21st century is not only unjust but will impede the exposure of the truth. If we point fingers of accusation at the 19th century Americans for allowing slavery, they can rightly point fingers at us, and accuse us of murder, for allowing abortion. These are two different eras in the history of America. They deserve to be seen and understood in the context of their times.

America needs, desperately, to know its history. If a nation doesn’t know where it has been, how can it know where it is going?

Our schools should be allowed to teach American History… warts and all. Our children deserve to know the truth. As Christ himself said, “…the truth shall make you free”.

Protests on Third Anniversary of Iraq War Fizzle Out!

Protests on Third Anniversary of the Iraq War Fizzle Out.

The third anniversary of the war in Iraq slipped, almost quietly, by over the past weekend. Of course there were the “Peace Nuts” in several places, around the world, protesting America’s efforts to free a repressed people and overthrow a tyrant. I often wonder if the “protesters” have any idea just how utterly stupid they appear to the rest of humankind.

President Bush Reaffirms Pre-Emptive War Policy of US!

President Reaffirms Pre-Emptive War Policy of US!

Thank God!

The day America can allow herself to be attacked, before we respond to an enemy’s threats, is long past! We are in the age of Nuclear Weapons. If we allow an enemy, any enemy, to attack us first, these days, the 2000 plus deaths at Pearl Harbor, in 1941, and the 3000 deaths in New York, in 2001, are "pin prick attacks" compared to the death and destruction rendered by a relatively tiny nuclear weapon. A small nuclear weapon detonated in New York would render, not 3000 deaths, but 300,000 deaths, instantly, plus a mounting death toll days, weeks, months, and years, after the attack, as a result of the radiation and radioactive fall out which would last weeks, or even months.

Only a fool, an utter and complete fool, would stand by and allow his country to be attacked, with a nuclear weapon, before he attacked the suspect nation and rendered them incapable of attacking anyone, with anything, even a hand grenade.

And yet, and yet, a member of the White House Press Corp. actually said that the US must allow itself to be attacked before we counter attack the offending nation. As idiotic as this sounds, this so-called “reporter” actually said that in a harangue of the President’s press secretary who was blown away by the reporter’s obvious lack of any connection to reality.

This, then, is what this country is up against. A press corp so liberal, so socialist, to the core, that the news we get is nothing short of socialist anti-American propaganda. All one has to do is listen and observe the wild rantings of the crowd in the White House Press Room to see, with crystal clarity, where the News Media in this country stands and… unfortunately, it is not with America!

How else can you explain a country with a roaring economy at near record levels, with unemployment at near record levels, and the stock market coming close to highs only reached once, or twice, in it’s history, but... the average American thinks we are in a recession? How else can you explain a country which was attacked and a President who counter attacks, invades, and topples two counties run by dictators, murderers and terrorists, now having the one of the lowest popularity ratings of any president in history. How else can you explain a county, which has come to believe IT is responsible for the attacks upon the US, which killed 3000 of our innocent citizens?

See what I mean? The Power of Propaganda! Hitler’s Germany was great at it and now our own “home grown press corp” is emulating them to an unbelievable degree of success.

We have turned out a citizenry of “brain washed” young people, as products of our Public (government) Schools. These young people are soaked in socialist propaganda from grade one right on through college. They graduate as helpless stooges of the left wing in this country. Only a few, with parents still grounded in a real America, are able to break out of that political slavery and make something of themselves using their God given talents and not relying on the government for their subsistence. I refer you to New Orleans as an example of what depending on the government can do for you.

I’d like to see the public school system, as it exists today, shut down completely. The schools are doing every bit as much harm to our young people as they are good. With a private school system, troublemakers, who are not in school to learn, would quickly find themselves out on the street cut off from society, as they should be. Private schools can screen their teachers and hire only those who educate their pupils with the best interests of those pupils at heart and not as a union expects them to teach. I am convinced that teacher’s unions have destroyed our public schools. Teachers should never be allowed to unionize... and that should be law.

But, I have swerved away for the subject at hand, left wing propaganda.

Our journalism schools, at our most liberal universities, are churning out these rabidly left wing journalists by the thousands. They are front line troops for the socialist movement in America. And they have had a huge impact on the nation. Their goal of turning America into a country modeled after the socialist countries of Europe may be unstated, but it is uppermost in their left wing minds.

You and I, the great unwashed, out here in the hinterlands of America, are the uneducated, unsophisticated boobs to whom they must spoon feed their leftist garbage for their campaign to be successful. And, they have made inroads.

There are still, areas of America, which hold steadfast to the original intent of the founders of the country. I’m happy to say that here in America’s Southland, where I reside; we do not suffer left wing fools for very long at all. The Northeast, the northern tier of states, and the west coast states have fallen and have been conquered by the left’s unrelenting attacks on all things American. Yet, here in the South we hold fast to the values our forefathers taught us. When we fall, IF we fall, rest assured we would be the last section of the country to fall under the iron fist of socialist slavery.

I think, often, there will be another secessionist movement in America. This time… it will be the northeast, the north, and the west seceding. Dear Reader, do not trouble yourself thinking that the South would go to war to force those states to remain in the Union! We would happily go our way, as we wished to do in 1860. All we wanted then was to be “left alone” as President Davis said in Columbia South Carolina just before the federal troops came pouring into our homeland.

For a number of years, I felt sorrow and concern for my American brothers and sister who have fallen prey to the left’s propaganda. But no more. Each man and woman has a responsibility to educate themselves to the dangers hidden behind that utopian façade the left wingers paint, so vividly, to conceal their true motives and true agenda. Being lazy can be lethal in American politics.

To live in a country with a core rotted by socialism may be the dream of those who reside on the left side of America’s political spectrum, but it most certainly is not to those of us on the right side of that same spectrum. We will resist. We will not go quietly into the night, into the blackness of the socialist hell as did the Russians and so many others in the satellite nations of the USSR. Nor will we tolerate that glorious façade with which leftists camouflage the rot and deterioration of the human spirit caught in the hellhole of Godless socialism. Again, I say, we will resist.

As the 2006 election approaches we conservatives must understand that to relinquish power to the left means another victory for socialism. It means the imminent impeachment of President Bush. It means unlimited illegal immigration across our borders. It means opening ourselves up to attacks by those who would destroy the United States. It means that attacks like those in new York, on September 11th, 2001, and those which take place, almost daily, in Israel will become commonplace in America, for if we have learned anything from the socialist left, it is that they cannot be trusted with the security of America. It also means tax increases and more stifling, and strangulating, regulations on business in this country. It will mean more intolerance of religion, especially the religion of God-fearing Americans. Ultimately, it will mean the end of America. How many more Clintonesque administrations can the country bear? The embarrassment of that “dirty joke” still lingers… and will for the remainder of US history.

This, then, is that “Vast Left Wing Conspiracy” we never heard about. And you won’t, because THEY control the propaganda machines in America. All these elements are tied together under the vast tent of the so-called Democrat Party.

The Mainstream Media is the voice of that great socialist machine. They exist for one reason and, and one reason only, and that is to do the bidding of their Democrat masters.

If there is any doubt in your mind that the Mainstream media is not a tool of the Democrat party, disabuse yourself of that delusion by watching one, just one, White House briefing in the Press Room of the White House.

These are but a few things conservatives must ponder before November. We are on the brink of losing the greatest country God has yet blessed this planet with. It is within our power to save it. But do we have the will?

A Generation of Deaf Americans?

This Blog First Ran in May of 2005!





Audiologists Will Make a Fortune.

If I were a young man, just out of High School, I’d be searching for a college, or university, which offered a degree in “Audiology”.

If there is anything certain, besides death and taxes, it is that we have an entire generation of young people who will be deaf, or near deaf, by the age of 30 and a fellow with a degree in “Audiology” can make a fortune selling hearing aids!

Can anyone explain the burning desire of young people to share their music with other folks living two and three blocks away? Can you explain their generosity with the audio systems in their automobiles on the highway? What is this pathological urge to blast their music (I’m using the word “Music” here generously and graciously!) across five or six lanes of traffic to burst thru the windows of your car and cause your teeth to hurt?

Having asked the question, I will now attempt to shed some light on the subject before my young neighbors get home from school and start blasting the neighborhood with the sounds of jungle drums, or voodoo rituals in music.

What we have these days is a generation of self-centered, narcissistic, rude, crude, hedonists masquerading as members of a social society, which claims to actually care for one another! Whew! I feel better all ready!

Some of the amplifiers in automobiles today have more power than the Hiroshima bomb! If you are ever unfortunate enough to find yourself behind one of those $1500.00 cars with a $3000.00 sound system in it, watch the truck lid. Every time a bass note is struck the lid vibrates and nearly flies up. Now, I ask you, if the impact of that sound wave can nearly knock a trunk lid off it’s hinges, then what kind of damage is it doing to the eardrums of those near-humans in the passenger compartment of the car? Huh?

What possible good can come from a sound system that causes the floor of a home, two and three blocks away, to vibrate and the windowpanes to rattle?

Talk about air pollution! What ever happened to “Disturbing the peace?”

I recently saw that the US military is seriously investigating the use of sound waves as a weapon of war. I can testify that it will do a great deal of damage to the enemy, starting with the loss of his sanity. If the military is, indeed, serious, I have a young neighbor, two, or three, blocks away; I’d like to introduce to them! Give this kid one amplifier and the entire Iranian, or North Korean, armies will surrender in short order!

I have a friend who spent much of his life among the” mentally challenged” and even today resides in a group home. He is now in his mid sixties. Turns out he is as smart as the next guy. The problem was, all these years; he is deaf as a post! Which leads me to wonder… if all the blank faced young people, we see all around us today, are not really as dumb as they appear. Could they just be deaf?? (Maybe 50 - 50?)

As I said… somebody is going to make a fortune off hearing aids!

Dixie Youth Baseball to be "Dixie" No More?

A movement to remove the word “Dixie” from “Dixie Youth Baseball” will soon be underway.

The movement to remove every vestige of the “South” grows daily with success after success while the organizations supposedly defending the South and Southern Heritage, stand on the sidelines and watch.

Now, it seems, the word Dixie is offensive. Well EXCUSE ME, but damnit, my HOME is in Dixie and I am a red blooded Dixican and proud of it!

To read about the latest outrage against Southerners, and our home, go here:

http://www.fayettevillenc.com/article?id=228862

I am sick and tired of these “do-gooders” meddling in Southern Culture as if they had the right to revise history just any way they please.

The word Dixie has nothing whatsoever to do with racism, bigotry, or any of that other crap we southerners are accused of on an ongoing basis. If you “politically correct” people need somebody to feel superior to, then, by God, get professional help and leave the South alone!

Dixie is our home! You are invited to leave at any time. If you don’t have the funds, I feel sure some generous Southerners will be happy to buy you a bus ticket north, or west. Just get the heck out of DIXIE and stay out.

I’d like to see, some Southern Heritage organization(s) purchase a half-acre of land at the northern entrances to all the states, which comprise Dixie, and place two very large Southern Icons as a greeting to all travelers headed South. One, a huge Confederate Battle Flag flying from a 150 foot high pole and, two, a huge stone marker upon which would be placed the words: “WELCOME TO DIXIE!”. I’d like to see this set-up along side every Interstate Hiway as it enters the “Holy Land”… Dixie!

In the meantime, Dear Reader, if you cannot abide our Southern Culture, and our Southern Heritage, then stay the hell out of Dixie! We don’t want you!

Have a nice day!

INVASION!!!

This Post first ran in October of 2005!


INVASION!!!

Ever hear of a place called “Aztlan”? How about "Republica del Norte"?

Well, if you’re American and you live in the US you had better bone up on these two locations. And quick!

What are Aztlan and Republica del Norte? Well as of today, we call it: California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and parts of Colorado and Texas. Still not making sense to you? Ok. Lets dig a little and see if we can uncover what this is all about.

A breakaway of US states is becoming ever more possible as the months and years go by. Now, I’m not talking about a North and South split, nor a red state, blue state, split. I AM talking about the lost of our Southwestern States!

Our lax immigration laws and the terrible enforcement of the laws we have on the books today have resulted in an influx of Mexicans into the Southwest that is overtaking the North American population. Those people have loyalties to Mexico first, over the US. The want the US dollars but their heart remains with Mexico.

Experts tell us we have less than two years to stop this and turn it around or we will certainly have a breakup of the United States. All this has been brought to us courtesy of Mexico and the US Government’s failure to secure our borders.

How, you ask, can this breakup happen? It’s quite simple, really. Studies tell us that within 30 years Latinos will make up more than 50% of the population of California. Once that happens a secessionist movement is almost certain. The Latinos will be looking for “Self Determination”. It could even result in that mythical land of “Aztlan”.

Aztlan is thought to be the place the ancient Aztecs originated. Latino experts tell us Aztlan is an area that includes California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and parts of Colorado and Texas. The aim is to eventually create a state called the “Republica del Norte”… the Republic of the North. It would be a sovereign state and would be comprised of the American Southwest and the northern Mexican states and it is thought that plans are to eventually merge with Mexico. Many feel the Mexican government is encouraging this movement.

Think all this is just smoke and mirrors? Well consider this: As a result of terrible U.S. immigration policies and truly awful enforcement of the Immigration laws, the US government has allowed a steady stream of 1 million illegal immigrants a year to enter the US. We here in North Carolina know, first hand, they are not becoming a part of our society; they are building a separate, active Hispanic community within ours. Therein lies the clear and present danger.

Even though the budget of the US Border Patrol has nearly tripled in 5 years it has made no impact on the numbers of illegal Mexicans crossing our southern border into the US. And even worse… the Mexican government is helping those illegal immigrants get into our country!
Did you know that Mexico has an “Office for Mexicans Abroad” that provides survival kits for Mexicans who seek to enter the U.S. illegally? Well, they do!

The United States of America is being invaded. In broad daylight we are being overrun… and our government refuses to do anything about it!

Those of us paying attention to this invasion and crying out in alarm are called racists, and bigots, anti-immigrant, and even worse. It is a most effective weapon and the Hispanics use it well.

I want to see policies to quell illegal immigration a part of the Republican Platform in the next Presidential campaign. The current administration will do nothing to bring this invasion to a halt. Nothing. In fact, by their sins of omission they have worsened the problem.

One thing… the Federal Government would do well to heed the calls of the Southwestern states for assistance in defending the border. If help is not forthcoming, from Washington, soon… those states, and the people who live along our southern border, are going to take matters into their own hands. It will not be pretty. It will however, be self-defense!
