OBAMA'S AGENDA: Wall St. and La Raza

WHAT THIS ARTICLE DOES NOT MENTION IS OBAMA, AND LA RAZA PELOSI, REID FEINSTEIN, BOXER… all four noted on JUDICIAL WATCH’S TEN MOST CORRUPT, are endlessly pushing for MORE illegals, UNDEFENDED BORDERS against Narcomex, sabotage of E-VERIFY to assure employers of illegals (which includes PELOSI and FEINSTEIN) “cheap” LABOR, and an endless assault on America law to expand the pool of Mexico’s BIGGEST EXPORT TO THIS NATION --- ITS POOR!

OBAMA KNOWS WHO HE WORKS FOR! THIS BUSH-IN-DRAG PERFORMER… !

“He noted that much of the discussion focused on cutting the corporate tax rate―something Obama is preparing to propose as part of a broad tax “reform”―and added that Obama's cave-in on extending Bush's tax cuts for the wealthy “set the tone” for the summit. “It is a good step forward and we'd like to see more of it,” he said, adding, “We all congratulated the president for his act of statesmanship.”
At a five-hour summit with top corporate executives on Wednesday, President Obama signaled his readiness to slash corporate income tax rates, weaken business regulations, cut social spending, and drive up US exports at the expense of the wages and conditions of American workers.



Obama pledges more concessions to business at White House summit
By Barry Grey
16 December 2010
At a five-hour summit with top corporate executives on Wednesday, President Obama signaled his readiness to slash corporate income tax rates, weaken business regulations, cut social spending, and drive up US exports at the expense of the wages and conditions of American workers.
The event was closed to the press, and Obama refused to answer questions shouted out by reporters afterward as he left Blair House and walked back to the White House. But his remarks in advance of the meeting and those of his advisers, as well as interviews given following the meeting by some of the 20 executives who attended, made the basic agenda clear.
Speaking just before the event, Obama touted his deal with congressional Republicans to extend Bush-era tax cuts for the wealthy and dramatically reduce taxes on inherited wealth, implying that this cave-in to big business would set the tone for the summit. He once more pledged his loyalty to capitalism and the American corporate elite, declaring, "I believe that the primary engine of America's economic success is not government. It's the ingenuity of America's entrepreneurs. It's the dynamism of our markets."
In saying this, he ignored the fact that American capitalists have over the past decade produced no net increase in jobs, and that the machinations of "America's entrepreneurs" had produced the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression.
The upcoming meeting with the heads of some of the most powerful corporations in the world would, he said, be devoted to spurring hiring and helping to "put Americans back to work." This supposed focus on creating jobs is the official smokescreen―utilized by Democrats and Republicans, liberals and conservatives alike, as well as corporate spokesmen―for a policy of driving down wages and intensifying the exploitation of the working class.
Obama hinted as much, using the coded language of American politics, when he restated his goal of increasing US exports in five years and said he would solicit ideas from the business leaders “about tax reform; ideas about a balanced approach to regulation that will promote, rather than undermine, growth; ideas that will help businesses to invest in America and American jobs…”
He mentioned without comment the fact that US corporations are sitting on nearly $2 trillion in cash, which they are by and large refusing to use to hire workers or expand production, and went on to say that “we need to redouble our commitment to fiscal discipline and address our long-term deficit challenges.”
The summit had been advertised by both the media and administration officials as an effort by the White House to mend fences with the corporate and banking elite. Despite receiving trillions of dollars in taxpayer bailouts under Bush and Obama, resulting in record or near-record profits and multi-million-dollar executive pay packages, sections of the corporate-financial elite had made a point of expressing their displeasure with the White House in the run-up to the midterm elections and had shifted the bulk of their campaign cash to the Republicans.
In a word, the financial overlords wanted more―first of all, an extension of the Bush tax cuts for the rich, and beyond that, double-digit cuts in high-end income and corporate tax rates, a further gutting of business regulations, severe austerity measures to force workers to accept even lower wages, and an end to Obama's occasional bursts of anti-corporate demagogy.
At the center of the administration's lurch to the right since the Democratic election debacle has been its efforts to conciliate Wall Street and big business. This has included, in addition to extending the Bush tax cut for the rich, renegotiating the free trade deal with South Korea to meet the demands of US auto makers and other corporations and delaying anti-pollution emissions regulations.
As Wednesday's New York Times reported: “While Mr. Obama has held such roundtables in the past, this one is part of a fresh effort by the administration to build closer ties over the next two years, officials say.”
During the election campaign, the US Chamber of Commerce spent millions of dollars to run anti-White House ads promoting Republican candidates. Last Friday, the president of the chamber, Tom Donohue, said on Fox News that Obama “has done the right thing to reach out to people in both parties… I think he is going to build more coalitions than before.”
Present at the Wednesday meeting, besides Obama, his business liaison Valerie Jarrett (a multi-millionaire Chicago real estate executive) and White House staff were: Greg Brown, co-CEO of Motorola; John Chambers, chairman and CEO of Cisco Systems; Kenneth Chenault, CEO of American Express; Dave Cote, chairman, president and CEO of Honeywell International; Scott Davis, chairman and CEO of UPS; John Doerr, partner in the law firm Kleiner Perkins Caulfield & Byers; Mark Gallogly, managing partner and co-founder of Centerbridge Partners; Lew Hay, chairman and CEO of NextEra Energy; Jeffrey Immelt, chairman and CEO of General Electric; Ellen Kullman, CEO of DePont; John Lechleiter, president and CEO of Eli Lilly; Andrew Liveris, president, CEO and chairman of Dow Chemical; James McNerney, chairman, president and CEO of Boeing; Indra Nooyi, chairman and CEO of PepsiCo; Paul Otellini, CEO of Intel; Penny Pritzker, chairman and CEO of Pritzker Realty Group; Brian Roberts, chairman and CEO of Comcast; Jim Rogers, chairman, president and CEO of Duke Energy; Eric Schmidt, chairman and CEO of Google; and Robert Wolf, president and COO of UBS.
Two of the firms represented, the pharmaceuticals giant Eli Lilly and the credit card behemoth American Express, have direct stakes in the results of ongoing rule-making for Obama's health care and financial regulatory overhauls.
Following the meeting, UBS Chief Operating Officer Robert Wolf told CNBC that the event was “very constructive.” He predicted that people “will see in 2011 things done between business and government that are very positive,” and alluded to one of them by noting that the corporate tax rate is presently “too high.”
Boeing's McNerney praised Obama as “very engaged” and said the meeting was different from previous White House-business roundtables “in tone and in detail.” Alluding diplomatically to Obama's prostration before the corporate tops, he said the participants had “moved beyond the tone that created a confrontational climate” and that “we all made our apologies.”
He noted that much of the discussion focused on cutting the corporate tax rate―something Obama is preparing to propose as part of a broad tax “reform”―and added that Obama's cave-in on extending Bush's tax cuts for the wealthy “set the tone” for the summit. “It is a good step forward and we'd like to see more of it,” he said, adding, “We all congratulated the president for his act of statesmanship.”
Honeywell's Dave Cote gave some sense of Obama's supine posture: “He [Obama] said, 'I'm a collaborative guy. I want to collaborate. Help me do it.’”

“PUNISH OUR ENEMIES”… does that mean assault the legals of Arizona that must fend off the Mexican invasion, occupation, growing criminal and welfare state, as well as Mex Drug cartels???

OBAMA TELLS ILLEGALS “PUNISH OUR ENEMIES”
Friends of ALIPAC,

Each day new reports come in from across the nation that our movement is surging and more incumbents, mostly Democrats, are about to fall on Election Day. Obama's approval ratings are falling to new lows as he makes highly inappropriate statements to Spanish language audiences asking illegal alien supporters to help him "punish our enemies."

Guess LA RAZA his happy with OBAMA’S endless hispandering! THEY SHOULD BE!
There are only eight states with a larger population than LOS ANGELES COUNTY, where 47% of those with a job are ILLEGALS USING STOLEN SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERS! This same mex gang infested county puts out $600 million in welfare to illegals!

“The inspections have determined that hundreds of companies throughout the U.S. have significant numbers of illegal immigrants on their payroll yet none have been punished, according to a Houston newspaper that obtained internal ICE records through the Freedom of Information Act. At least 430 audit cases listed as “closed” by the agency had high percentages of workers with “questionable” documents yet they faced no consequences.”
THE ENTIRE REASON THE BORDERS ARE LEFT OPEN IS TO CUT WAGES!

“We could cut unemployment in half simply by reclaiming the jobs taken by illegal workers,” said Representative Lamar Smith of Texas, co-chairman of the Reclaim American Jobs Caucus. “President Obama is on the wrong side of the American people on immigration. The president should support policies that help citizens and legal immigrants find the jobs they need and deserve rather than fail to enforce immigration laws.”
*
“The principal beneficiaries of our current immigration policy are affluent Americans who hire immigrants at substandard wages for low-end work. Harvard economist George Borjas estimates that American workers lose $190 billion annually in depressed wages caused by the constant flooding of the labor market at the low-wage end.” Christian Science Monitor

The California Budget Project, a liberal study group in Sacramento, brought the income squeeze down to the state level in its Labor Day analysis.
Using state tax data, the project said that the average adjusted gross income of all California taxpayers - whether filing individually or jointly - fell from $82,268 in 2000 to $68,434 in 2008, after adjusting for inflation. TOM ABATE SFGATE.com

Labor secretary: Obama doing good job on economy
Monday, September 6, 2010
(09-06) 04:36 PDT WASHINGTON (AP) --
Labor Secretary Hilda Solis is defending President Barack Obama's efforts to combat the recession and unemployment, saying his focus has been on helping the jobless and underemployed.
In a Labor Day appearance on ABC News'"Good Morning America," Solis said Obama is doing a good job.
Solis says the Obama administration knows people are hurting from the weak economy. She pointed to last year's $814 billion economic recovery act and administration proposals for job training and hiring incentives for businesses.
On CBS'"Early Show," she said that over the last eight months, the U.S. economy has added some 90,000 private sector jobs each month.
Critics have cited persistent unemployment rates of nearly 10 percent and only faint signs that businesses are rehiring workers.

Labor Dept. Helps Illegal Alien Workers
Last Updated: Tue, 04/06/2010 - 11:04am
The Department of Labor has launched a special program to assist and protect illegal immigrant workers in the U.S., referred to as “vulnerable” and “underpaid” by the presidential cabinet member who heads the agency.
Hundreds of new field investigators have been deployed to reach out to Latino laborers in areas with large numbers of illegal alien employees. Their message, in Spanish, is “we can help” bring workplace protections to the nation’s most vulnerable and underpaid workers, including those who have no legal right to live in the Untied States.

(THE OBAMA PLAN TO PUT ILLEGALS INTO OUR JOBS AND VOTING BOOTHS!)

Labor Secretary Hilda Solis, a former California congresswoman with close ties to the influential La Raza movement, announced the “We Can Help” project with great fanfare a few days ago. A total of 1,000 investigators from her agency will focus on enforcing labor and wage laws in industries that typically hire lots of illegal aliens without reporting anyone to federal immigration authorities.
(WHO WORKS FOR THE RIGHTFUL JOBS OF AMERICAN CITIZENS? WHO ENFORCES THE LAWS THAT PROHIBIT THE EMPLOYMENT OF ILLEGALS, EVEN IF THEY HAVE A STOLEN SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER? NOT THE LA RAZA DEMS, OR HISPANDERING BARACK OBAMA!)
Solis told Latino workers that “your president, your secretary of labor and this department will not allow anyone to be denied his or her rightful pay, especially when so many in our nation are working long, hard and often dangerous hours.” She assured illegal immigrants that “if you work in this country, you are protected by our laws.”
The same day Solis publicly announced the Obama Administration’s new project, a Labor Department investigator visited a day laborer center in northern California to promote it. The federal employee actually chatted warmly with the illegal immigrants about how to find jobs without being exploited, according to a local newspaper report. “We’re the feds but the good ones,” he told the day laborers in Spanish. “We’re here to help workers.”
The agency has also launched a Spanish television advertising campaign to spread the word and created a web site. Workers in industries from construction to food service are urged to contact the Labor Department of wage and hour violations. An investigator may be deployed to the work site or the employer may be taken to court.

OBAMA HAS FILLED HIS ADMINSTRATION WITH PRIMARILY LA RAZA PARTY MEMBERS.
Here’s his Sec. Labor, HILDA SOLIS:

While in Congress, she opposed strengthening the border fence, supported expansion of illegal alien benefits (including driver's licenses and in-state tuition discounts), embraced sanctuary cities that refused to cooperate with federal homeland security officials to enforce immigration laws, and aggressively championed a mass amnesty. Solis was steeped in the pro-illegal alien worker organizing movement in Southern California and was buoyed by amnesty-supporting Big Labor groups led by the Service Employees International Union. She has now caused a Capitol Hill firestorm over her new taxpayer-funded advertising and outreach campaign to illegal aliens regarding fair wages:

The U.S. Department of Illegal Alien Labor
President Obama's Labor Secretary Hilda Solis is supposed to represent American workers. What you need to know is that this longtime open-borders sympathizer has always had a rather radical definition of "American." At a Latino voter registration project conference in Los Angeles many years ago, Solis asserted to thunderous applause, "We are all Americans, whether you are legalized or not."
That's right. The woman in charge of enforcing our employment laws doesn't give a hoot about our immigration laws -- or about the fundamental distinction between those who followed the rules in pursuit of the American dream and those who didn't.
While in Congress, she opposed strengthening the border fence, supported expansion of illegal alien benefits (including driver's licenses and in-state tuition discounts), embraced sanctuary cities that refused to cooperate with federal homeland security officials to enforce immigration laws, and aggressively championed a mass amnesty. Solis was steeped in the pro-illegal alien worker organizing movement in Southern California and was buoyed by amnesty-supporting Big Labor groups led by the Service Employees International Union. She has now caused a Capitol Hill firestorm over her new taxpayer-funded advertising and outreach campaign to illegal aliens regarding fair wages:
"I'm here to tell you that your president, your secretary of labor and this department will not allow anyone to be denied his or her rightful pay -- especially when so many in our nation are working long, hard and often dangerous hours," Solis says in the video pitch. "We can help, and we will help. If you work in this country, you are protected by our laws. And you can count on the U.S. Department of Labor to see to it that those protections work for you."
To be sure, no one should be scammed out of "fair wages." Employers that hire and exploit illegal immigrant workers deserve full sanctions and punishment. But it's the timing, tone-deafness and underlying blanket amnesty agenda of Solis' illegal alien outreach that has so many American workers and their representatives on Capitol Hill rightly upset.

With double-digit unemployment and a growing nationwide revolt over Washington's border security failures, why has Solis chosen now to hire 250 new government field investigators to bolster her illegal alien workers' rights campaign? (Hint: Leftists unhappy with Obama's lack of progress on "comprehensive immigration reform" need appeasing. This is a quick bone to distract them.)
Unfortunately, the federal government is not alone in lavishing attention and resources on workers who shouldn't be here in the first place. As of 2008, California, Florida, Nevada, New York, Texas and Utah all expressly included illegal aliens in their state workers' compensation plans -- and more than a dozen other states implicitly cover them.
Solis' public service announcement comes on the heels of little-noticed but far more troubling comments encouraging illegal alien workers in the Gulf Coast. Earlier this month, in the aftermath of the BP oil spill, according to Spanish language publication El Diario La Prensa, Solis signaled that her department was going out of its way to shield illegal immigrant laborers involved in cleanup efforts. "My purpose is to assist the workers with respect to safety and protection," she said. "We're protecting all workers regardless of migration status because that's the federal law." She told reporters that her department was in talks with local Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials who had visited coastal worksites to try to verify that workers were legal.
No word yet on whether she gave ICE her "we are all Americans, whether you are legalized or not" lecture. But it's a safe bet.

WE ARE MEXICO’S WELFARE and PRISON SYSTEMS!
“Mexico’s government has provided its nationals with valuable tools to help them cross the border safely but Dominguez is the first American resident, with a salary provided by U.S. taxpayers, to openly promote such a gadget. A few years ago Mexican officials published a 32-page booklet (Guia Del Migrante Mexicano) with safety tips for border crossers and distributed hand-held satellite devices to ensure the violators complete their journey safely.”

FIFTEEN THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT LA RAZA “THE RACE”
by Michelle Malkin
(get Malkin’s book on OBAMA NOTED below!)
Only in America could critics of a group called "The Race" be labeled racists. Such is the triumph of left-wing identity chauvinists, whose aggressive activists and supine abettors have succeeded in redefining all opposition as "hate."
Both Barack Obama and John McCain will speak this week in San Diego at the annual conference of the National Council of La Raza, the Latino organization whose name is Spanish for, yes, "The Race." Can you imagine Obama and McCain paying homage to a group of white people who called themselves that? No matter. The presidential candidates and the media have legitimized "The Race" as a mainstream ethnic lobbying group and marginalized its critics as intolerant bigots. The unvarnished truth is that the group is a radical ethnic nationalist outfit that abuses your tax dollars and milks PC politics to undermine our sovereignty.
*
Here are 15 things you should know about "The Race":
*
15. "The Race" supports driver's licenses for illegal aliens.
*
14."The Race" demands in-state tuition discounts for illegal alien students that are not available to law-abiding U.S. citizens and law-abiding legal immigrants.
*
13. "The Race" vehemently opposes cooperative immigration enforcement efforts between local, state and federal authorities.
*
12. "The Race" opposes a secure fence on the southern border.
*
11. "The Race" joined the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee in a failed lawsuit attempt to prevent the feds from entering immigration information into a key national crime database -- and to prevent local police officers from accessing the data.
*
10. "The Race" opposed the state of Oklahoma's tough immigration-enforcement-first laws, which cut off welfare to illegal aliens, put teeth in employer sanctions and strengthened local-federal cooperation and information sharing.
*
9. "The Race" joined other open-borders, anti-assimilationists and sued to prevent Proposition 227, California's bilingual education reform ballot initiative, from becoming law.
*
8. "The Race" bitterly protested common-sense voter ID provisions as an "absolute disgrace."
*
7. "The Race" has consistently opposed post-9/11 national security measures at every turn.
*
6. Former "Race" president Raul Yzaguirre, Hillary Clinton's Hispanic outreach adviser, said this: "U.S. English is to Hispanics as the Ku Klux Klan is to blacks." He was referring to U.S. English, the nation's oldest, largest citizens' action group dedicated to preserving the unifying role of the English language in the United States. "The Race" also pioneered Orwellian open-borders Newspeak and advised the Mexican government on how to lobby for illegal alien amnesty while avoiding the terms "illegal" and "amnesty."
*
5. "The Race" gives mainstream cover to a poisonous subset of ideological satellites, led by Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan, or Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan (MEChA). The late GOP Rep. Charlie Norwood rightly characterized the organization as "a radical racist group … one of the most anti-American groups in the country, which has permeated U.S. campuses since the 1960s, and continues its push to carve a racist nation out of the American West."
*
4. "The Race" is currently leading a smear campaign against staunch immigration enforcement leaders and has called for TV and cable news networks to keep immigration enforcement proponents off the airwaves -- in addition to pushing for Fairness Doctrine policies to shut up their foes. The New York Times reported that current "Race" president Janet Murguia believes "hate speech" should "not be tolerated, even if such censorship were a violation of First Amendment rights."
*
3. "The Race" sponsors militant ethnic nationalist charter schools subsidized by your public tax dollars (at least $8 million in federal education grants). The schools include Aztlan Academy in Tucson, Ariz., the Mexicayotl Academy in Nogales, Ariz., Academia Cesar Chavez Charter School in St. Paul, Minn., and La Academia Semillas del Pueblo in Los Angeles, whose principal inveighed: "We don't want to drink from a White water fountain, we have our own wells and our natural reservoirs and our way of collecting rain in our aqueducts. We don't need a White water fountain … ultimately the White way, the American way, the neo liberal, capitalist way of life will eventually lead to our own destruction."
*
2. "The Race" has perfected the art of the PC shakedown at taxpayer expense, pushing relentlessly to lower home loan standards for Hispanic borrowers, reaping millions in federal "mortgage counseling" grants, seeking special multimillion-dollar earmarks and partnering with banks that do business with illegal aliens.
*
1. "The Race" thrives on ethnic supremacy -- and the elite sheeple's unwillingness to call it what it is. As historian Victor Davis Hanson observes: "[The] organization's very nomenclature 'The National Council of La Raza' is hate speech to the core. Despite all the contortions of the group, Raza (as its Latin cognate suggests) reflects the meaning of 'race' in Spanish, not 'the people' -- and that's precisely why we don't hear of something like 'The National Council of the People,' which would not confer the buzz notion of ethnic, racial and tribal chauvinism."
*
The fringe is the center. The center is the fringe. Viva La Raza.
