Marco Rubio Opposes Amnesty For Illegal Aliens [Video]

marco-rubio.jpg
Marco Rubio opposes illegal immigration. He opposes amnesty and illegal immigration so much that I think he says it at least 10 times in the video below.

Rubio really is a phenom that is becoming quite the norm it seems. The fear is gone of speaking your mind opposing wide open borders and not enforcing laws. The fear is gone opposing the crying from the bleeding hearts who are in favor of such a continued travesty upon our country. No longer do people shy away from stating clearly and concisely that they oppose illegal immigration and amnesty. Why is this? Because they know they're right and they have indisputable arguments as to the harm that illegal immigration causes to our country and that it is flat out wrong.

Charlie Crist, the typical Republican shill candidate - the poster child of why Republicans have lost support from true conservatives in this country - supports illegal immigration.

A classic example of this is the recent statements by Crist that illegal aliens should be counted in the US census and the numbers used for apportionment of seats in the US House of Representatives. With this argument, Crist is in essence saying that states (like Florida) should actively encourage illegal immigration as much as possible. By by doing so they'll have more seats in the house and therefore get more federal tax dollars for their state and have a greater say in the direction of this country with every seat they take. States that don't do such would lose seats and their residents would therefore lose representation - even though they are legal US citizens and their say is being overridden by illegal aliens. Logical thinkers would agree that even counting legal immigrants for seat apportionment is wrong, since they are not citizens and cannot vote and therefore a representative should not be casting votes in the house on their behalf. After all, a representative represents voters, that's a basic premise of a republic.

Crist's position is wrong headed and it is the reason he is losing.

Marco Rubio was trailing governor Charlie Crist by 31 points 7 months ago in the Republican Primary race for US Senate in Florida. Today polls are showing Rubio ahead of Crist by 12 points. An utterly devastating result that should bring a little knowing smirk to your face if you've been paying attention to the Tea Partys and you believe that America is headed in the wrong direction and needs a change.


We need more Marco Rubios in this country and we certainly need more Marco Rubios in the sellout cesspool known as our US Senate.

Help out the Rubio campaign by heading over to the Marco Rubio website. Toss him a few dollars and show your support! After all if he goes to the senate, his vote will impact you. As will of course Crist's.

(Rubio's team also has a sense of humor. They are running a current fund-raising drive to raise exactly $787,000 dollars. Why $787k? Why that is 1 millionth of the $787 billion dollar Obama stimulus package that Charlie Crist heavily campaigned in favor of nearly one year ago).

Thomas Paine On The Amnesty Madness [Video]

Thomas Paine has released a video on the coming amnesty for illegal aliens. He puts out an impassioned plea to the American people to stand up to their "non-representing representatives" and the "them" that have put us in the current position of having more than 20 million illegal aliens who have just managed to worm their way into our country.

With the coming legislation for amnesty - and the fight that will ensue and which we shall win - it is more important than every to speak without fear.

They will call you racist or extremist, but the reality is that anyone who is calling for a mass amnesty - at the expense of the American people, its culture, its way of life and your standard of living that you have fought for through hard work - is the true extremist. Never forget that.

These people will keep pushing until they are confronted. Then they will run for the hills yelling "racist". Because in the end everything they are trying to do is to gain power, control and money through exploitative practices, manipulations of the poor and a disregard for the rights of individuals in this country. When that is the sole immoral reasoning behind their actions, it should be as no surprise that all they have left to do is run away squealing like stuck pigs when they are called out.

I have absolutely no sympathy for any of their arguments and you shouldn't either. This is a country of laws and we should start acting like it

Previously Deported Illegal Slashes Two Women

(Leominster, Massachusetts) Illegally in the United States and previously deported, a 23-year-old Guatemalan national, Aaron Noel Camey Valenzuela, was arrested after a canine-assisted three-hour manhunt for allegedly slashing two women.

Valenzuela faces charges of attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon.

The slashing incident occurred yesterday morning at Valenzuela's work location, the United Solutions manufacturing facility in Leominster. Valenzuela allegedly slashed a female co-worker, his ex-girlfriend, and then another woman who tried to intervene.

There had been a domestic incident between Camey and his girlfriend at the company three weeks ago, and the company put the two in separate departments.

The girlfriend was taken to UMass-Worcester, where she was last listed in stable condition.

The other woman was treated and released at Leominster Hospital.

It's not unusual that a domestic dispute escalated to serious physical violence nor is it unusual that an illegal alien is gainfully employed at an American company in Massachusetts.

And, sadly, it's also not unusual for illegal aliens to be deported and subsequently reenter the U.S. over and over. The fact that it's newsworthy is because it's not unusual. Deportation has become the equivalent of a speed bump on the road to retirement from a career with a U.S. company.

All in all, it wouldn't be surprising to learn that some illegal aliens use vacation time accrued with an American company to weather pesky deportations.

"Hey, Boss, I need to take my vacation now. The government is deporting me."

"Okay, see you next month."

Heh.

Immigration Leaders To Watch: Jeff McGeary, Candidate PA-8 [Video]

Jeff McGeary
There is a fire abrewing up in Bucks County, Pennsylvania where Democrat Patrick Murphy is the current sitting representative for District 8. Outraged at his voting record - he is a near clone of Nancy Pelosi when it comes to votes - Murphy now faces 7 people who have thrown their hat in the ring to run against him on the Republican ticket come Primary Election Day May 18, 2010.

Of the 7 primary candidates left (there were 10 after former Rep Mike Fitzpatrick recently entered the race) my pick of the lot is firebrand, hard charger and immigration enforcement patriot Jeff McGeary.

Murphy's campaign is so worried about McGeary that they sent operatives to a recent Republican candidates forum and broke the rules of taking pictures and video specifically of McGeary. They were warned by event coordinators to stop as it was against the rules of the forum or they would be removed.

McGeary, a captain in the Army reserve, has been burning up the Pennsylvania scene speaking at numerous Tea Party protests, founding a patriotic group called the Thomas Jefferson Club and mobilizing countless ordinary Americans to take action against a more intrusive government. McGeary is also an Eagle Scout and a member of the American Legion.

Leaders like Jeff are hard to find in this day and age and he's going to need support running against Fitzpatrick in the primary. Fitzpatrick has prior connections and money and we can't let McGeary give up! For more information or to donate to his campaign see the McGeary for Congress website. Tell Jeff to stay in the race to the end.


"[we must ] defend our borders from foreign invasion and that is exactly what is going on along our southern border".
- Jeff McGeary
In the video below you can watch Jeff clearly lay out his beliefs. States rights, limited government and putting America first are among them.

In particular pay attention to the beginning of the second video below and it will get most Americans excited. This man clearly means what he says and has the guts to state it loud and without fear when it comes to illegal immigration. This is something we need in congress.

"I absolutely oppose amnesty ... I pledge I will go down to our southern border, I will defend our border," McGeary said. "it states in the constitution, which I swore an oath to, ... [that we must ] defend our borders from foreign invasion and that is exactly what is going on along our southern border".

"I will be a leader in this. I will oppose amnesty and I will advocate for returning legal immigration back to a reasonable level of around 250,000, so we can introduce those who have come here legally, to the American culture, American Flag, American Language and the American way of life."

Jeff McGeary Part One

Jeff McGeary Part Two

Support McGeary for Congress today!

Who Is Ellie Light? - Green Light For Same Letter To Editor From 50+ Papers

A single letter to the editor from someone portraying themselves as "Ellie Light" appeared in over 50 newspapers, from large to small town. This letter seems to have gotten a green light from someone at the top to appear in all of these papers in a mass propaganda initiative. There is simply no way with the many letters that editors get that this single letter would appear in so many papers without someone at the top ordering it to be so.

So now in this country we have a cabal working the newspapers, as if that wasn't clear enough from the election with all of their pro-Obama "stories". This one though can not be hidden. These imbeciles actually thought that they could pull one over on the American people and that they would read this letter "from an average American" who supports Obama and maybe change their tune.

Some have noticed that the majority of the papers are Gannett Company owned.

I would just like to point out that the name "Ellie" means "Light" in Greek, as any baby name book can tell you. I originally heard the name and instantly thought it was an anagram for something, but looking into it could find no complete letter usage, though the words "lie" and "hill" and "get" appear. I don't believe the name itself is a way to track where it is coming from or will give us any insight into who the person is.

Here is an interesting bit of information that was posted on Oct 12, 2007 at MyDD (a progressive website) by writer Shai Sachs under the title "Newspaper ownership and conservative dominance of op-ed pages".
http://mydd.com/2007/10/12/newspaper-ownership-and-conservative-dominance-of-op-ed-pages
(Tipped by Ruth at Illegal Protest)

In the post it contains mention of the dominance of conservatives on op-ed pages and that Sachs thinks that there should be a secret op-ed company set up to counter this across the country. Is that what we are seeing now? If so how long has this been going on with no one noticing?


A couple of weeks ago, I commented on the Media Matters report on conservative dominance of newspaper op-ed pages. At the time, I wrote that it could be possible for a liberal entrepreneur to establish an op-ed syndicate for progressive writers which competes with the titans of the opinion industry ...

Regardless of the cause of conservative bias in op-ed pages, I'm still curious about, the possibility of establishing a progressive op-ed syndicate. Such a syndicate could do a great deal to strengthen the progressive movement.

There is more information on this - and looking into who Ellie Light could be - over at Riehl World View, Patterico's Pontifications and Hot Air where they call Ellie an "Obama Astroturfer". Some commenters simply call Ellie a spammer, but I think it goes deeper than that.

Brown Wins! Dems Taste Tea, CNN, MSNBC Fun To Watch, Amnesty Toast

Scott Brown
The repudiation of the ridiculous Obama Health Care initiative, back room dealings and political payoffs to "special people" like the unions began yesterday. Scott Brown, a conservative, wins the Senate seat of one of the most liberal senators ever, Ted Kennedy. In all honesty Brown could have been a little ugly troll who climbed out from behind a rock and ran for senate and still won. Why? Because of his stances and because the American people are sick of the arrogance and total disregard for the people of this country by the current crop of "leaders" in Washington.

One commenter at a story on the results hit the nail on the head when he asked the question of Dems "How do those tea bags taste on your tonsils?"

The fact is that true Americans who stood up were told to sit down and shut up. They were called extremists because they wanted government to be scaled back and to get the hell out of their life. They were called "Tea Baggers", in a derogatory manner, to try to denigrate their concerns. I ask the same question of these holier than thou arrogant people now. How does that tea taste?

There was indeed national support for Brown from these awakened slumbering giants. Going from 30 points behind a month before the special election, Brown won convincingly. Brown brought in a million dollars a day in donations the week leading up to the election. Truly a showing of Americans across the nation making their stance quite clear.

The travesty now is that the GOP is running around almost as smug as the Dems were days before. The truly happy are the conservatives of this country, the GOP is just looking for power, for there is a difference between the two. The GOP will find out their joy is short lived when people realize that they haven't changed their ways either. They're still the big spending fools they were.

Be that as it may, It is a joyous day! Flipping through CNN and MSNBC has tickled the funnybone. During the results last night, with about 60% in, CNN and FOX had the numbers at 53% to 46%, flipping over to the hyper-liberal MSNBC and Rachel Maddow though saw a numbers game. They didn't want to admit it was that quite that bad, so they went into the decimal system to point out that it really was only 52.6% to 45.4% ... wouldn't want to round those numbers up would you? It was comical their attempt at minimizing the tragedy for them occurring before their eyes. The worried look on Maddow's face throughout was also priceless as she sat in a Boston cafe talking with Howard Dean via satellite who was looking for ANY kind of silver lining. "Well maybe they haven't counted Boston yet?" Dean quipped. One has to wonder if Maddow was having Tea in that cafe.

Making it even taste even sweeter was the fact that this occurred in the state of Massachusetts, the tea had come home to Boston - and the Dems were dumped in the harbor with it.

As for the agenda coming with a Brown win? There is one issue near and dear to 80+% of Americans that Brown stands on the right side of - and it isn't opposition to health care. It is opposition to amnesty for illegal aliens. Brown is firmly against amnesty and we will need that in the notorious sell-out senate where amnesty has reared its ugly head time and again. Amnesty is dead with Brown in the senate!

Many people are reading too much into this win with regards to how to run a campaign though and I find it quite annoying. The GOP is trumpeting around that Brown is a "new breed of Republican" and that he's showing the GOP how to run a campaign. Well that is total poppycock. Yes, I said poppycock! The Brown campaign itself was a fluke. It came at a time when the arrogance of the liberals was just dripping from their lips every time they opened their mouths. "Americans be damned" they seemed to say every time their slimy holes opened.

Brown's "campaign" consisted of having the right ideals and an opposition to their devastating goals when the Dems had a super majority. Even liberals in Massachusetts could see that health care "reform" was a horrible idea. The last year has been one riddled with corruption, cronyism, incompetence and outright bribery. You've got Senators like Al Franken telling Joe Lieberman on the senate floor that he can't have even one more minute of time to finish his point because there has to be unanimous consent - and Franken alone would not give his. Arrogance!

Don't even get me started on the arrogance of Harry Reid and (while not in the senate) Nancy Pelosi.

Anthony Weiner
One of the most arrogant Dems, Anthony "bend over and take it" Weiner of New York, came out today and spoke for liberals saying "we get the message". Give me a break! They couldn't see that they were that screwed up just a day before the election, but now all of the sudden they are different? No.

Does all of this sound familiar though? It should. After getting hammered by conservatives over amnesty, John McCain virtually said the same thing. That he got the message. He didn't change his tune, he was still for amnesty, he just packaged it differently. We'll "secure the borders first" he would state. The same goal, just wrapped a little different. As for the securing of "anything" first? Well the requirements for what determined a "secure border" were just not specified, they were conveniently left out. Anyone could just quip "the border is secure' and then they could implement amnesty as they wanted all along.

The point is that the Dems will do the same thing. They got the message alright. They got the message that people didn't like the packaging of their bitter pill. So they'll put forth the bitter pill again. This time however they'll put it in a more colorful box and do more flashy ads like the pharmaceutical industry does with hardly tested medicines. You know the ones I'm talking about right? The ads you see today for some pill that will provide birth control, cure depression, make you stop smoking and lose weight all at the same time! Ads filled with happy young women dancing around with their pets and handsome boyfriends in shiny clothes. Of course a year later lawyers are suing for clients because it turned their bones into Swiss cheese, made them gain 80 lbs. and get pregnant with a stillborn child. That is the pill you will get from the "new Dems" so that their friends can profit.

All of the above is why Brown won, it can't be duplicated in the exact way again. However, what the Republicans can do is actually choose some fiscal conservatives. They still haven't learned that lesson as the congressional race in NY-23 showed us, with the Repubs endorsing a candidate who was so liberal even Pelosi was jealous. I have my doubts the R's will learn one single lesson from this. They simply think that the sea change will continue and that they don't need to change what they were doing before. They may be right, or they may be just as arrogant as the Dems have been the last year and not realized that a lion has awoken in America...

... and that lion likes tea.

The rally will also featured Tea Party Patriots against Tax hikes.

If you are in the area you should really make it down there.

Kathleen Suzy Evans, Running for Assembly 40th District (Republican SF Valley)
Roger Gatlin, Santa Clarita Independent Minutemen
Carla Bonney, Ventura County Independent Minutemen
Craig Britt, Campo Minutemen
Robin Hvidston, WethePeople Admin.
Sam Zilsman, Derail Amnesty Admin. (aka 'SZinWestLA' & You TUbe 'Geanuxsaints')
William Scarpino, Ventura County Tea Party
James Spencer, Activist
Santa Clarita Tea Party rep. TBA

There is a Facebook entry on the rally if you need more information.

Date: Saturday, January 16, 2010
Time: 11:00am - 1:00pm
Location: Santa Clarita court, library, LASD, town center- Southwest corner.

**Saturday, January 16, 2010 at Magic Mountain Parkway at Valencia Blvd, southwest corner, next to the LASD Offices.**

Ventura & Santa Clarita Tea Party org are on board. This should be a great rally. There will be a lot of seasoned activist attending and many new ones. It will be great to see some of those old friends and meet new ones. Join together to fight an amnesty that could grant full citizenship to upwards of 15 million 'aliens' who have illegally entered the United States. An amnesty for those who flaunt the American rule of law will create an economic burden of such proportions that the strain on our American economy would be unbearable and devastating.

Please be there with your American Flag or creative placard with topics to fight Higher Taxes for runaway Govt expenditures (Obamacare, Bailouts, Cap&Tax) and to fight Amnesty for illegal aliens in the US.

Palin Says No Speaking Fee For Tea Party Convention

Sarah Palin
A few days ago I did the blistering article Going Vogue on how Sarah Palin was taking a reported $100k speaking fee from the grassroots Tea Party movement. I received many a comment both on the website and via e-mail. Well last night on the O'Reilly Factor at the end of her interview with Bill she said that there was controversy surrounding the speaking gig and her pay for it. She said that she will not be receiving any payment for her speech.

Here is a basic transcript:

Palin: I am so thankful for the Tea Party movement, for people having a place for their voice to be heard. I can't wait to do this event, and there are a lot of Tea Party events...

O'Reilly: keynote, here right?

Palin: I believe I am the keynote. There will be other speakers, too, though, but I can't wait to get to hear from those who are so concerned about our economy and about our national security issues and share with them what I believe the solutions are.

O'Reilly: They'll love you at the Tea Party, boy. They will love you!

Palin: Well, I can't wait to be there, and there's always that controversy it seems surrounding whatever it is that I announce I'm going to do. There's controversy involved in this one because theTea Party offered me a speaking fee. I will not financially be gaining anything from this.

O'Reilly: You should, though. You have a family to support. Take the money.

Palin: You know what's more important? More important than money in my pocket from an event like that is being able to turn it right back around and contribute to campaigns, candidates and issues that will help our country.

I am not sure when she came to conclusion that she wouldn't accept a fee, when the keynote speech was first offered to her or after the conservative and independent backlash came, but it has taken her days to come out and rebut the reports. As laudable as this is, the convention is still charging attendees $349 for the speech alone and $549 for the whole convention.

Even with Palin not taking a fee for her speech, this in no way changes the fact that Sarah Palin told Univision she support a "pathway to citizenship" for illegal aliens - amnesty. That is a deal breaker in my book, as illegal immigration adversely directly impacts every other single issue that she takes stances on that I may agree with.

Dan Riehl also points out that he doesn't think Palin even understands the Tea Party movement.


As for Palin, her remarks on the Nashville Tea Party event disappointed to the extent that nothing she said told me she understands the movement behind the movement very well.

Riehl also analyzes her performance during the interview and her future.

Also interesting is that the Gold Sponsor of the "National" Tea Party Convention, American Liberty Alliance, has bailed over concerns of the organizing group Tea Party Nation and some weird banking going on. It seems that the Tea Party movement is being raped by opportunists everywhere. Tea Partiers beware.

Below is Palin the interview in full. The statements regarding the fee are at the very end of part 2.

Southern Border Weakened As Border Patrol Plundered For Air Marshal Service

After the Christmas Day terrorist attack on-board a flight to Detroit President Barack Obama came out and stated that they would be beefing up the air marshal service. While most would agree that this a great idea, the way that this administration intends to do so is by plundering other areas of law enforcement that protect this country. One of the first places they have decided is a good idea to weaken is along our southern border.

Word is coming in to me from sources in the Border Patrol that they have been receiving calls urging them to join the air marshal service. The job promises higher wages, but comes with mind numbing requirements of hours and hours of sitting on flights. The air marshal service is so overtaxed that most agents bail out soon after joining, yet they retain the higher pay of their new government rate.

Sources in the Border Patrol tell me that agents that have come back and are accepted are some of the most highly paid border agents around, making more than some of their superiors.

Our already weak southern border, and lack of support it receives from the top down, is just waiting to be further exploited by terrorists, illegal aliens and the infamous bloody drug cartel violence occurring in Mexico. It is quite obvious that this administration and previous ones do not comprehend actual security. By weakening one segment of national defense to enhance another you are simply creating an opening that is sure to be exploited.
