OBAMA’S
AMNESTY HOAX TO LEGALIZE MEXICO’S LOOTING, DESTROY THE GOP WITH 40 MILLION NEW
DEMS, AND KEEP WAGES FOR GREATER PROFITS FOR THE PAYMASTERS OF CORRUPT DEMS’
HERITAGE FOUNDATION: OBAMA’S AMNESTY
WOULD ADD 100 MORE ILLEGALS AND COST AMERICANS (Legals) BILLIONS AND BILLIONS
the staggering cost of Mexico’s looting:
Try this thought experiment. Imagine that someone
grows up in poverty, works his way through law school by holding the night shift
as a Capitol Hill policeman, and spends all but two years of his career as a
public servant. Now imagine that this person’s current salary — and he’s at the
top of his game — is $193,400. You probably wouldn’t expect him to have
millions in stocks, bonds, and real estate.
HARRY REID’S STATE of
NEVADA IS LA RAZA-OCCUPIED.
IT IS A STATE MEXICO
CONTROLS.
ONE-THIRD OF THE
POPULATION ARE ILLEGALS. REID’S BIG GAMBLING PAYMASTERS DEMAND AN EVEN FLOW OF
ILLEGALS TO KEEP WAGES DEPRESSED FOR THOSE WORKING THE HOTELS, FOOD SERVICES
AND CONSTRUCTION. IN THESE SECTORS, ILLEGALS HAVE 90% OF THE JOBS.
NEVADA IS THE
FORECLOSURE AND UNEMPLOYMENT CAPITAL OF THE NATION.
THEREFORE REID
DEPENDED ON ILLEGALS’ VOTES TO REELECT HIM, AS OBAMA DOES NOW!
HARRY REID AND BARACK
OBAMA HAVE TURNED OVER MILLIONS OF TAX DOLLARS TO THE MEXICAN FASCIST PARTY of
LA RAZA!
WELFARE FOR REID’S
STATE HAS SOARED. SO HAVE MEX GANG CRIMES!
Try this
thought experiment. Imagine that someone grows up in poverty, works his way
through law school by holding the night shift as a Capitol Hill policeman,
and spends all but two years of his career as a public servant. Now imagine
that this person’s current salary — and he’s at the top of his game — is
$193,400. You probably wouldn’t expect him to have millions in stocks, bonds,
and real estate.
But,
surprise, he does, if he’s our Senate majority leader, whose net worth is between
3 and 10 million dollars,
according to OpenSecrets.org. When Harry Reid entered the Nevada legislature
in 1982, his net worth was listed as between $1 million and $1.5 million “or
more,” according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal. So, since inquiring minds inquire, let’s try
to figure out how Reid’s career in public service ended up being so
lucrative. He hasn’t released his tax returns, which makes this an imperfect
science, but looking at a few of his investments helps to show how he amassed
his wealth.
In
2004, the senator made $700,000 off a land deal that was, to say the least,
unorthodox. It started in 1998 when he bought a parcel of land with attorney
Jay Brown, a close friend whose name has surfaced multiple times in
organized-crime investigations and whom one retired FBI agent described as “always a person of interest.” Three years
after the purchase, Reid transferred his portion of the property to Patrick
Lane LLC, a holding company Brown controlled. But Reid kept putting the
property on his financial disclosures, and when the company sold it in 2004,
he profited from the deal — a deal on land that he didn’t technically own and
that had nearly tripled in value in six years.
When
his 2010 challenger Sharron Angle asked him in a debate how he had become so
wealthy, he said, “I did a very good job investing.” Did he ever. On December
20, 2005, he invested $50,000 to $100,000 in the Dow
Jones U.S. Energy Sector Fund (IYE), which closed that day at $29.15. The
companies whose shares it held included ExxonMobil, ChevronTexaco, and
ConocoPhillips. When he made a partial sale of his
shares on
August 19, 2008, during congressional recess, IYE closed at $41.82. Just a
month later, on September 17, Reid was working to bring to the floor a bill
that the Joint Committee on Taxation said
would cost oil companies —
including those in the fund — billions of dollars in taxes and regulatory
fees. The
bill passed a few
days later, and by October 10, IYE’s shares had fallen by 42 percent, to
$24.41, for a host of reasons. Savvy investing indeed.
Here’s
another example: The Los Angeles Times reported in November 2006 that when Reid became Senate
majority leader he committed to making earmark reform a priority, saying he’d
work to keep congressmen from using federal dollars for pet projects in their
districts. It was a good idea but an odd one for the senator to espouse. He
had managed to get $18 million set aside to build a bridge across the
Colorado River between Laughlin, Nev., and Bullhead City, Ariz., a project
that wasn’t a priority for either state’s transportation agency. His
ownership of 160 acres of land nearby that stood to appreciate considerably
from the project had nothing to do with the decision, according to one of his
aides. The property’s value has varied since then. On his
financial-disclosure forms from 2006, it was valued at $250,000 to $500,000.
Open Secrets now lists it as his most
valuable asset, worth
$1 million to $5 million as of 2010.
How
Reid acquired that land is interesting, too. He put $10,000 into a pension
fund his friend Clair Haycock controlled, to take over the 160-acre parcel at
a pricefar
below its assessed value. Six
months later, Reid introduced legislation that would help Haycock’s industry,
a move many observers said appeared to be a quid pro quo, though Reid and
Haycock denied that the legislation was the result of a property deal.
We
don’t know how much more money Reid has or how he made all of it. For that,
we’d have to see his tax returns.

Reid Receives Award for Support of Mexican American Community Thursday, May 31,
2007 Las Vegas, NV - U.S. Senator Harry Reid of Nevada received an award today
from the Mexican Government, in recognition of his efforts to bring a Mexican
consulate office to the area. I recognize the important role and significance
of having a Mexican Consulate office in Clark County," said Reid. "The
Consul plays an important role in providing valuable information and services
to the Mexican community. Before the Consulate opened, people in Clark County
who sought Mexican consular services had to travel four hours to San Bernadino.
I'm glad that I was able to help the Mexican Community fill that need." "His [Reid's] support to
Consul Berenice Rendón in opening the Mexican Consulate in Las Vegas was
fundamental," said Consul Mariano Lemus Gas. "...The Mexican
Consulate believes that Senator Harry Reid deserves recognition for his
contribution to the opening of this office." Reid and his staff worked
closely with the Mexican Embassy to help bring the Consulate Office to Las
Vegas. The Las Vegas Consulate Office, which officially opened in February
2002, was the 47th to open in the United States. In 2005, Consul Mariano Lemus
Gas was assigned to the Las Vegas office. The Consulate Office provides many
services to the Mexican American Community including: Information about
requirements for traveling to Mexico Helping Mexican Nationals obtain consular
identification cards Issuing Mexican Nationals passports Educating business
people about travel and trade between the United States and Mexico Arranges for
the return to Mexico of those who have died in the United States Helps with
reunification of separated families Protects labor rights and helps recover
back wages Promotes government programs such as education, health, and social
development for those participating in the Institute for Mexicans Living Abroad
Reid is committed to fighting for the Hispanic communities in Nevada. Reid has
voted to raise the minimum wage; he supports tough and fair immigration reform;
and he is working to ensure that states don't run out of money for children's
health programs. During today's ceremony, Reid joined Consul Gas to present the
Ohtli Award to Pricilla Rocha and Araceli Paredes for their efforts to
strengthen the community.
One of La Raza's biggest supporters
is Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV). In 2001, Reid asked the Senate Appropriations
Committee for $5 million to help further the racist goals of that organization.
That same year, La Raza gave Sen. Reid their Capital Award for "his
commitment to advance legislation priorities of the Latino community."
Reid in turn praised La Raza by saying: "La Raza is like the biblical
David, fighting all these Goliaths."

American Taxpayers Being Forced To Support Latino
Nazi Party
By Dave Gibson (09/17/06)
In 2005, the Latino group known as La Raza (The
Race) was given $15.2 million in U.S. federal grants. La Raza also received an
additional $4 million in so-called 'earmarks' tucked into the 2005 Housing
Bill, which our Congress passed and President Bush signed. Considering the
racist agenda of La Raza, giving federal funds to this group is tantamount to
the U.S. funding the Nazis in the 1930's.
The comparison to the Nazi Party is well deserved.
La Raza openly supports pushing all but Latino Americans out of a portion of
the United States (ethnic cleansing), they call for 'Reconquista' or the
re-conquest of the American Southwest by Mexico (the re-occupation of the
Sudetanland), and the establishment of 'Atzlan' which is the utopian all-Latino
version of the American Southwestern states (Adolf Hitler planned to called his
utopia Germania).
Karl Rove
was one of the keynote speakers at this year's annual National Council of La
Raza Conference. The event was held in Los Angeles (the eventual capital of
Atzlan). Other speakers included Jesse Jackson, Bill Clinton, and the virulent
racist L.A. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa. The fact that Karl Rove is the
President's top political adviser and addressed the group with Bush's blessing,
is a strong indicator that this nation is being subverted at the very highest
levels.
If La Raza
was a white supremacist group with equally deep pockets, the U.S. government
would place them on a terrorist watch list, infiltrate them with undercover FBI
agents, and subject them to constant harassment by the Internal Revenue
Service. Eventually, the group's leaders would be jailed and the group itself
would be rendered irrelevant. However, because La Raza is a Latino supremacist
group, the Bush administration and most of Congress offer them financial
support!
One of La Raza's biggest supporters is Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV). In 2001,
Reid asked the Senate Appropriations Committee for $5 million to help further
the racist goals of that organization. That same year, La Raza gave Sen. Reid
their Capital Award for "his commitment to advance legislation priorities
of the Latino community." Reid in turn praised La Raza by saying: "La
Raza is like the biblical David, fighting all these Goliaths."
Taxpayer
funds are also funneled to La Raza through the Department of Health and Human
Services, The Environmental Protection Agency, and even NASA. Tax dollars are
hidden in these government agencies, earmarked to be specifically given away to
La Raza. Inside the halls of Congress, the practice is known as discretionary
funding...In the real world it is known as money laundering!
In 2005,
$7.9 million was stolen from the American taxpayers and given out to
Latino-only charter schools in the form of U.S. Department of Education grants.
The following is a list of a few of those schools:
-La Academia
Semillas del Pueblo (Los Angeles)
-Atzlan
Academy (Tucson, AZ)
-Mexicayotl
Academy (Nogales, AZ)
-The Dolores
Huerta Prepatory High School (Pueblo, CO)
-Academia
Cesar Chavez Charter School (St. Paul, MN)
These
schools stress Latino culture, the Spanish language, the reconquest of the
American Southwest, ethnic cleansing and the establishment of the mythical
Atzlan, and even Aztec math!...Again, all taught on your dime!
According to
the Capital Research Center, La Raza has assets well in excess of $50 million.
This same group reports that La Raza spends about $1 million annually on
lobbying and fundraising.
Can you
imagine a high-ranking member of the Roosevelt administration making a trip to
Berlin to show support for the Nazi Party? Or perhaps the Congress
appropriating money to the Ku Klux Klan? While those scenarios both sound
absurd, the support that our elected officials are giving to the racist group
known as La Raza is no different.
One has to
wonder, if the KKK offered extremely cheap labor to unscrupulous American
businesses and potential votes to equally unscrupulous politicians...Would
Congress fund whites-only charter schools?

Watch Exposes Mexican Separatist School Is Academia Semillas del Pueblo
Training the Next Generation of Mexican Revolutionaries?
http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/city/carrollton/stories/100706dnteximmigrationcops.32285f9.html
Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates
and prosecutes corruption, today announced the release of a special report,
Academia Semillas del Pueblo (Seeds of the People Academy): Training the Next
Generation of Mexican Revolutionaries with American Tax Dollars. Judicial
Watch’s report includes excerpts of new documents obtained by Judicial Watch
through the California Public Records Act that highlight the school’s radical
agenda. According to the report’s introduction: “Academia Semillas del Pueblo
is not much more than a training ground for the Mexican reconquista movement,
which seeks to conquer the American Southwest – by force or by ballot box – and
return it to Mexico.” Among the highlights of Judicial Watch’s special report:
· Academia is led by Mexican revolutionary radical Marcos Aguilar, who recently
told an interviewer with UCLA’s Teaching to change L.A.: “We don’t necessarily
want to go to White schools¼the White way, the American way,
the neo liberal, capitalist way of life will eventually lead to our own
destruction.” · Academia offers an 8th grade United States history and
geography class entitled, “A People’s history of Expansion and Conflict – A
thematic survey of American politics, society, culture and political economy;
Emphasis throughout on the nations the U.S. usurped, invaded and dominated;
Connections between historical rise of capitalism and imperialism with modern
political economy and global social relations.” · Academia is funded by
the Mexican reconquista organization “National Council of La Raza.” Moreover,
Aguilar previously served as a leader of M.E.Ch.A., a radical student-run
Chicano organization, while attending UCLA. According to M.E.Ch.A.’s official
statement of principles, “Aztlan (the American southwest) belongs to indigenous
people, who are sovereign and not subject to a foreign culture¼We are a union of free
pueblos forming a bronze Nation.” · According to Academia’s original charter application, the
school targets “communities [that] are highly self-identified as Latino.”
English instruction for Academia’s students does not begin until the fourth
grade. “Marcos Aguilar’s school seems to be brainwashing school children with
Mexican separatist, anti-American, Marxist propaganda, and getting American
taxpayers to pay for it,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “How could the Los Angeles Unified School
District agree to fund this sham of a school with tax dollars?”

"These
are the critical years for us as a Latino community. We're in a state of
transition. And that transformation is called 'the browning of America'.
Latinos are now becoming the majority. Because I know that time and history is
on the side of the Chicano/Latino community. It is changing in the future and
in the present the balance of power of this nation. It's a game - it's a game
of power - who controls it. You (to
MEChA students) are like the generals that command armies. We're in a state of
war. This Proposition 187 is a declaration of war against the
Latino/Chicano community of this country. They know the demographics. They know
that history and time is on our side. As one community, as one people, as one
nation within a nation as the community that we are, the Chicano/Latino
community of this nation. What this means is a transfer of power. It means
control."
“THE
NEW LEADERSHIP OF THE AMERICAS... IS MEXICAN!”
“REMEMBER:
(PROPOSITION) 187 IS THE LAST GASP OF WHITE AMERICA IN CALIFORNIA!”

Villaraigosa, Chair of MEChA (student wing of Aztlan movement) at UCLA,
former CA assemblymember, former CA Assembly speaker, currently Los Angeles
City Mayor, and formerly Councilman at Southwest Voter Registration Project
Conference in Los Angeles, 6/1997 "Part of today's reality has been
propositions like 187 (to deny public benefits to illegal aliens, 1994),
propositions like 209 (to abolish affirmative action, 1996), the welfare reform
bill, which targeted legal immigrants and targeted us as a community. That's
been the midnight. We know that the sunny side of midnight has been the
election of a Latino speaker - was the election of Loretta
Sanchez, against an arch-conservative, reactionary hate-mongering
politician like Congressman Dornan! Today in California in the legislature,
we're engaged in a great debate, where not only were we talking about denying
education to the children of undocumented workers, but now we're talking about
whether or not we should provide prenatal care to undocumented mothers. It's
not enough to elect Latino leadership. If they're supporting legislation that
denies the undocumented driver's licenses, they don't belong in office, friends.
They don't belong here. If they can't stand up and say, 'You know what? I'm not
ever going to support a policy that denies prenatal care to the children of
undocumented mothers', they don't belong here."

FIFTEEN
THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT LA RAZA “THE RACE”
by Michelle Malkin
(get Malkin’s book on
OBAMA’S STAGGERINGLY CORRUPT ADMINISTRATION)
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 REALITY OF HARRY REID AND BARACK
OBAMA’S OBAMANOMICS: no legal need apply! WE JUST GET THE TAX BILLS FOR THE LA
RAZA MEXICAN WELFARE STATE AND CRIME TIDAL WAVE!
What
happens to the economy in Vegas, doesn't stay in Vegas
Published May 25, 2012
FoxNews.com
The Obama apologists and mainstream media (sorry for repeating
myself) claim the economy is improving and unemployment declining.
Really?
You mean like in Las Vegas?
April’s numbers show joblessness fell in Nevada below 12% for the
first time in 3 years. Hip Hip Hooray! Break out the champagne. Obama has
pulled off a miracle.
Right?
Well, not exactly. You see in Obama’s world, down is up, while
misleading statistics and outright lies are “facts.” The truth is the shrinking
unemployment number proves the job picture is getting worse, not better.
Newsweek just named Obama
“The First Gay President.” Based on the numbers above, Newsweek should do a new
cover story on “The Food Stamps and Disability President.”
-
Let me explain:
The only reason Obama can claim unemployment is shrinking is
because people are leaving the workforce in droves.
Here
are the Las Vegas numbers -- read ‘em and weep. The facts are that during the
past 12 months 2,000 Las Vegans found jobs, while 20,000 gave up looking for
work.
According to Obamanomics and the president's crack statisticians
that means the unemployment rate went down. Does that make sense to you?
Under Obama, the worse things get, and the more desperate and
discouraged people get, the more the unemployment rate improves…simply because
they have given up on the idea of ever working for a living again.
But, of course, that is exactly his goal. In Obama's world, more
unemployed people needing government handouts means more Democrat voters.
As the facts in Las Vegas show, there is little or no job growth
in America.
Nothing.
This supposed “good news” about unemployment is due to people
giving up hope of finding a job. People in Nevada, and the rest of this
country, are so discouraged they are dropping out of the workforce and no
longer looking for a job.
“How are they surviving?” you might ask.
Many are milking unemployment benefits until the last possible
day, then switching to welfare, food stamps, and other government handouts.
Some are 62 or older and stayed on unemployment just long enough to retire and
seamlessly move on to Social Security after their jobless benefits are done.
(THERE ARE ONLY EIGHT (8) STATES WITH A POPULATION GREATER THAN
LOS ANGELS COUNTY WHERE 90% OF ALL SERVICE SECTOR AND CONSTRUCTION TRADES JOBS
GO TO ILLEGALS USING STOLEN SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERS. THIS SAME COUNTY PAYS OUT
$600 MILLION IN WELFARE TO ILLEGALS, PRIMARILY ANCHOR BABY BREEDERS = 18 YEARS
OF WELFARE. THIS COUNTY ALSO HAS A TAX-FREE MEX UNDERGROUND ECONOMY CALCULATED
TO BE IN EXCESS OF $2 BILLION PER YEAR! VIVA LA RAZA?)
Many are moving to the underground economy. They realize it just
doesn’t pay to work a real 40-hour job for low wages and then pay an obscene
portion of it in taxes to Uncle Sam. So, they are choosing to enter the cash
economy where taxes are zero.
The worst news is that as their unemployment checks run out, many
Americans are joining the disability rolls.
Disability payments are at an all-time high, with almost 11
million Americans claiming to be too disabled to work. The shocking part of
this is that almost 6 million of them joined the disability rolls in just the
3 short years since Obama became president. Under Obama the disability
rolls have increased far faster than the job rolls.
Why haven’t we seen the national media report on that fact?
Newsweek just named Obama “The First Gay President.” Based on the
numbers above, Newsweek should do a new cover story on “The Food Stamps and
Disability President.”
Or better yet, how about an investigative report on "Gays
under Obama: Married But Unemployed."
Nancy Pelosi was right -- under Obama economic growth is measured
by unemployment benefits, welfare, disability and food stamps. Liberals count
those as "growth," simply because there’s not much other economic
activity to count.
But let's get back to Nevada’s statistics
because they are eye-opening and show a pattern happening all across America.
The Las Vegas labor force participation rate
is down to 64.9%. That means only 64.9% of Adults actually working…35.1% are
not working. Nationally it’s even worse -- with only 63.6% of adults working,
36.4% are not. America is fast becoming...Greece.
The mainstream media and other Obama
apologists should be ashamed of the fraudulent propaganda they are spreading
about a shrinking unemployment rate.
As the facts prove, it is only shrinking because more and more
Americans no longer think it’s worth the effort to look for work. Why work when
you can collect government benefits for 99 weeks of unemployment then start
collecting welfare, food stamps, disability, or Social Security?
The brutal reality is that while he is using sham statistics to
support his lies about creating jobs and reducing unemployment, Obama is
succeeding beyond his wildest dreams in forcing millions of Americans to seek
government support -- thereby creating a dependent population he and his
liberal cronies can manipulate.
It’s been said that liberalism is a disease. When it comes to our
president and the facts about job creation and unemployment, it is clearly a
disease that leaves those afflicted blind, deaf, and dumb.
There is no "recovery." There is only an unemployment,
food stamps, and disability economy.
This is the brutal reality of the America we live in today.
Once again, Las Vegas is the trend-setter that shows us the truth
about pop culture.
Unfortunately, what happens to the economy in Vegas, doesn’t stay
in Vegas. This nightmare is happening all over Obama's America.

Is Illegal
Immigration Moral?
By
Victor Davis Hanson
We know illegal immigration is no longer really unlawful,
but is it moral?
Usually Americans debate the fiscal costs of illegal
immigration. Supporters of open borders rightly remind us that illegal
immigrants pay sales taxes. Often their payroll-tax contributions are not later
tapped by Social Security payouts.
Opponents counter that illegal immigrants are more likely to
end up on state assistance, are less likely to report cash income, and cost the
state more through the duplicate issuing of services and documents in both
English and Spanish. Such to-and-fro talking points are endless.
So is the debate over beneficiaries of
illegal immigration. Are profit-minded employers villains who want cheap labor
in lieu of hiring more expensive Americans? Or is the culprit a cynical Mexican
government that counts on billions of dollars in remittances from its
expatriate poor that it otherwise ignored?
Or is the engine that drives illegal immigration the
American middle class? Why should millions of suburbanites assume that, like
18th-century French aristocrats, they should have imported labor to clean their
homes, manicure their lawns and watch over their kids?
Or is the catalyst the self-interested professional Latino
lobby in politics and academia that sees a steady stream of impoverished Latin
American nationals as a permanent victimized constituency, empowering and
showcasing elite self-appointed spokesmen such as themselves?
Or is the real advocate the Democratic Party that wishes to
remake the electoral map of the American Southwest by ensuring larger future
pools of natural supporters? Again, the debate over who benefits and why is
never-ending.
But what is often left out of the equation is the moral
dimension of illegal immigration. We see the issue too often reduced to
caricature, involving a noble, impoverished victim without much free will and
subject to cosmic forces of sinister oppression. But everyone makes free
choices that affect others. So ponder the ethics of a guest arriving in a host
country knowingly against its sovereign protocols and laws.
First, there is the larger effect on the sanctity of a legal
system. If a guest ignores the law -- and thereby often must keep breaking more
laws -- should citizens also have the right to similarly pick and choose which
statutes they find worthy of honoring and which are too bothersome? Once it is
deemed moral for the impoverished to cross a border without a passport, could
not the same arguments of social justice be used for the poor of any status not
to report earned income or even file a 1040 form?
Second, what is the effect of mass illegal immigration on
impoverished U.S. citizens? Does anyone care? When 10 million to 15 million
aliens are here illegally, where is the leverage for the American working poor
to bargain with employers? If it is deemed ethical to grant in-state tuition
discounts to illegal-immigrant students, is it equally ethical to charge three
times as much for out-of-state, financially needy American students -- whose
federal government usually offers billions to subsidize state colleges and
universities? If foreign nationals are afforded more entitlements, are there
fewer for U.S. citizens?
Third, consider the moral ramifications on legal immigration
-- the traditional great strength of the American nation. What are we to tell
the legal immigrant from Oaxaca who got a green card at some cost and trouble,
or who, once legally in the United States, went through the lengthy and
expensive process of acquiring citizenship? Was he a dupe to dutifully follow
our laws?
And given the current precedent, if a million
soon-to-be-impoverished Greeks, 2 million fleeing North Koreans, or 5 million
starving Somalis were to enter the United States illegally and en masse, could
anyone object to their unlawful entry and residence? If so, on what legal,
practical or moral grounds?
Fourth, examine the morality of remittances. It is deemed
noble to send billions of dollars back to families and friends struggling in
Latin America. But how is such a considerable loss of income made up? Are
American taxpayers supposed to step in to subsidize increased social services
so that illegal immigrants can afford to send billions of dollars back across
the border? What is the morality of that equation in times of recession?
Shouldn't illegal immigrants at least try to buy health insurance before
sending cash back to Mexico?
The debate over illegal immigration is too often confined to
costs and benefits. But ultimately it is a complicated moral issue -- and one
often ignored by all too many moralists.

Judicial Watch Announces List of Washington’s “Ten Most Wanted Corrupt Politicians” for 2013
January 02, 2014 |
(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch today released its 2013 list of Washington’s “Ten Most Wanted Corrupt Politicians.” The list, in alphabetical order, includes:
Dishonorable Mentions for 2013 include:
Senator Harry Reid (D-NV):
Last year, Harry Reid made the Judicial Watch Ten Worst list for his influence-peddling scandal involving ENN Energy Group, a Chinese “green energy” company for which Reid “applied his political muscle” – and which just happened to be a major client of the Nevada law firm in which Reid’s son, Rory, is a principal.
This year Reid makes the Ten Worst list again. His “friends” list is examined by Frontpage.com:
On Monday, Harry Reid’s close friend and donor, Harvey Whittemore was sentenced to two years in prison for funneling more than $130,000 in illegal campaign funds to Sen. Harry Reid’s re-election committee in 2007 …
According to the Las Vegas Review Journal, Reid and Whittemore go way back; four of Reid’s sons were hired by the law firm in which Harvey Whittemore was a senior partner. Sen. Reid and Whittemore were involved in very big land deals, including federal legislation to help the development of Coyote Springs.
None of which is surprising, since Reid has long-since made funneling money to his family’s enterprises his stock-in-trade. According to Peter Schweizer, writing for Fox News, “Sen. Reid has sponsored at least $47 million in earmarks that directly benefitted organizations that one of his sons, Key Reid, [RW1] either lobbies for or is affiliated with.”
While not teaming up with family members to fleece taxpayers, Reid was teaming up with President Obama to use executive authority to skirt the law. Obama and Reid have long opposed a proposed nuclear waste dump in Yucca Mountain, Nevada, which has already cost U.S. taxpayers an astounding $15 billion, according to various federal audits. So, Obama simply instructed the Nuclear Regulatory Commission(NRC) to decline to conduct the statutorily mandated Yucca Mountain licensing process, essentially destroying the project.
In mid-August, a federal appellate court ruled that Obama “is simply flouting the law.” According to the court, “It is no overstatement to say that our constitutional system of separation of powers would be significantly altered if we were to allow executive and independent agencies to disregard federal law in the manner asserted in this case by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.”
Topping off the year, on November 21, 2013, – a day which should live in congressional infamy – Reid gutted the long-standing filibuster rules of the U.S. Senate in order to grease the path for Barack Obama’s court appointees. The new Reid rule prevents the minority party from filibustering any nominations other than nods to the Supreme Court. And to effect the change, Reid first triggered the “nuclear option,” which allows a change to Senate rules by majority vote (and which he had adamantly opposed in 2005, calling it “illegal” and “unAmerican”). Minority Leader Mitch McConnell accused Reid of attempting “break the rules of the Senate … in order to change the rules of the Senate.” Not surprisingly, as the Wall Street Journal editorialized, an ancillary benefit of the rule change is that it will get judges on the DC Court of Appeals who are more friendly to Reid’s agenda.
HARRY REID LA RAZA
THE RISE AND FUNDING OF THE MEXICAN FASCIST PARTY of LA RAZA “THE RACE” UNDER OBAMA AND THE DEMOCRAT PARTY
………………THIS IS NOTHING! IN THE DEMS’ CURRENT AMNESTY HOAX TO LEGALIZE MEXICO’S LOOTING THERE IS $150 MILLION TO BANKROLL THE MEXICAN FASCIST PARTY of LA RAZA!
In 2005, the Latino group known as La Raza (The Race) was given $15.2 million in U.S. federal grants.
http://mexicanoccupation.blogspot.com/2011/04/history-of-mexican-fascist-party-of-la.html
One of La Raza's biggest supporters is Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV). In 2001, Reid asked the Senate Appropriations Committee for $5 million to help further the racist goals of that organization. That same year, La Raza gave Sen. Reid their Capital Award for "his commitment to advance legislation priorities of the Latino community." Reid in turn praised La Raza by saying: "La Raza is like the biblical David, fighting all these Goliaths."
