Obama's Smoking Gun on the Healthcare Bill

Remember when Joe Wilson shouted, 'YOU LIE' to Obama during the healthcare speech before Congress? Wilson was clearly upset about Obama's claim that the healthcare package 'will not cover illegal aliens.'

Since that time the President has been on the defensive, claiming he has no intention of signing a bill that includes healthcare coverage for illegals.

But you knew there had to be a catch, didn't you? Read all about it at Columbia Conservative Examiner.

It seems Obama has a scheme up his sleeve to get all those illegals covered through the 'back door.'

The Demise of the Immigration Compromise Bill

Washington, DC (TLS). As expected, the U.S. Senate failed to garner the 60 votes needed to invoke cloture Thursday morning, and proceed to a vote on the immigration reform bill. This means that the bill is dead.

Six top Republicans defected from the shaky coalition of Democrats and Republican leaders in order to insure the demise of the bill. This was in stark contrast to the vote on Tuesday when the bill's supporters received 64 votes.

However, in the intervening hours between the first vote and today's vote, a massive avalanche of angry citizens inundated Congress with phone calls, faxes, emails, and text messages.

One person who contacted Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid was so explosive in his derogatory comments that Reid indicated he would be turning over the communication to the government's investigative authorities.

Obviously, the vast majority of the contacts were not violent in nature, and thus, the Senators heard the deep concerns of the people loud and clear.

Even Senator Dianne Feinstein commented on the number of complaints from citizens, but stated that she would vote in favor of the bill anyway because 'those who oppose the bill do not understand it.'

Sure, Senator. Only elitists like you can truly understand the intricacies of government and legislation, and we, the misinformed and ignorant commoners, are too dumb to comprehend.

Senator Jim DeMint, R-South Carolina, on the other hand, asked, 'What part of ‘no’ don’t we understand? This fight has 'reengaged the American people.'

However, Senator Lindsey Graham, R-South Carolina, one of the bill's staunchest proponents, stated, 'Remember this day if you vote no. The bill will not come back in its present form, and this is as good as it gets.'

Perhaps someone should remind Senator Graham that we don't need another bill. What we need is enforcement of the laws already on the books that deal directly with the problem of illegal aliens and what to do about them.

The problem is not inadequate laws. The problem is the inadequate enforcement of current law.

Some liberal groups are already warning that the opposition to this bill among Republicans will spell defeat for them in 2008. The common reasoning behind this view is that Hispanic voters are overwhelmingly turning to Democrats, and today's vote will only accelerate that process.

Critics point to the fact that George W. Bush received 40% of the Hispanic vote but that in 2008 that level of support is expected to drop.

A closer look, however, reveals that Hispanics have never been in the hip-pocket of Republicans to begin with. 40% of the Hispanic vote is not a majority. Democrats have always been the beneficiaries of the influx of Hispanic immigrants, which is the biggest reason they block enforcement of current law and come within a hair's breadth of supporting open borders.

It should not be very difficult, however, to show Hispanic voters that this bill is not about legal immigration. This has NEVER been about legal immigration. The vast millions of Hispanic immigrants who have gained citizenship through legal means are valued and productive citizens. They work hard. They are deeply religious. They support their families.

Republicans, conservatives, independents, and libertarians who opposed the immigration compromise bill have no quarrel at all with these exemplary members of the LEGAL Hispanic immigrant community. Our quarrel has been with illegal aliens, period...and the corrupt government of Mexico that apparently wishes to dump its criminals onto America by supporting their illegal entry into the country.

The bill as it stood did very little to adequately address the problem of illegal aliens. Granting a path to citizenship for illegals would be a slap in the face to every immigrant who followed the law and attained their citizenship the right way.

Americans of every stripe continue to welcome immigrants who are willing to obey the law, learn English, and follow the path to citizenship already laid out in the U.S. Code.

We still support those who obey the law. But we remain vehemently opposed to those who disregard the law.

Showdown Vote on Immigration TODAY

Washington, DC (TLS). The Senate is expected to vote on the immigration compromise bill in today's session. Although 64 Senators voted in favor of 'cloture' to proceed to the consideration of the bill, The Liberty Sphere has learned that there are already defections among the Republicans who originally voted for cloture.

The tentative coalition of Democrats and top Republicans is being severely strained by what some Republican Senators describe as 'being railroaded.'

Republicans complain that they are being railroaded by the Democratic majority which has cut off consideration of their amendments and chosen instead to consider only those amendments offered by Democrats.

This, according to one Republican, is tantamount to being 'silenced.'

The tactical maneuver by the Democratic leadership to ignore all Republican amendments to the bill is the force driving the defections from the coalition.

According to Fox News Wednesday afternoon, there are already 4 Republican Senators who originally voted for cloture yet who indicate that now they plan to vote AGAINST the bill. More defections are expected.

And this is not the only bad news for the bill's supporters. Sources in the House indicate that if the bill is approved by the Senate, it will be dead-on-arrival as soon as it comes to the House.

Within the House there is a much stronger coalition among conservative Democrats and Republicans who oppose the bill than is the case in the Senate. Thus, the House, which by its very nature is closer to the people, is in no mood to antagonize their constituents any further by approving a measure that 70% of the voters deplore.

As for now, the only thing we can do is wait and see. We can only hope that the Senators considering this bill have been listening to the ire of the electorate.

It's Back--Immigration 'Compromise'

Washington, DC (TLS). As expected, the U.S. Congress has resurrected the immigration compromise bill proposed by Ted Kennedy, John McCain, and backed by President Bush.

None of the three have what we could call 'exemplary' records when it comes to immigration law and illegal aliens.

In his long tenure as a career politician from the state of Massachusetts, Kennedy has spearheaded at least three major immigration 'reform' bills, two of which have been passed into law. With each successive reform measure, the problem of illegal aliens only gets worse.

John McCain never saw an amnesty bill he didn't like, and he has been shockingly soft on the issue of illegal aliens, given that his state is on the front lines of the issue.

President Bush has presided over the single largest infiltration of illegal aliens that the country has ever witnessed. His Texas crony, U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton, has been busy at the southern border making sure that no matter what rhetoric comes out of the White House, Mexico is the one to be placated on the matter of immigration, even at the expense of our own Border Patrol agents.

The agents have essentially been browbeaten into cowering in the face of illegals overrunning the country due to the fact that Sutton has tossed into the slammer any law enforcement agent that takes seriously the nation's laws against illegal entry into the country.

Americans are not dumb. They can see clearly what has been occurring in their towns, cities, and counties, and they know that the politicians in Washington, both Democrat and Republican, are walking in tandem in creating the present scenario where millions from south of the border have invaded our country, shown disdain for our government and its Constitution, flown their Mexican flags, and refused to learn our language.

Legal immigrants who obeyed the law and followed the legal process of becoming U.S. citizens are outraged that law-breakers get a break.

Yet, in spite of the outcry from the citizens across America in opposition to any immigration compromise bill, the politicians are hell-bent on shoving an amnesty program down the throats of the voters, like it or not.

The fact that they would even TRY to resurrect this shameful bill shows that they have nothing but utter contempt for the average citizens and their views on this subject.

A few lone voices, most of them Republicans, have fought to prevent the President, Ted Kennedy, and John McCain from foisting this sham on the American public. Patriots such as Tom Tancredo, Duncan Hunter, Ron Paul, Jeff Sessions, and Jim DeMint have put their reputations on the line in order to oppose the President and a few powerful elitists in the Republican Party.

This is not to mention the hoards of Democrats who are just standing in line to essentially give away the country to Mexico in order to secure votes.

The citizens, and their spokespersons in the Congress, defeated the attempt to pass this measure the first time. We can do it again. But we must contact our Senators and Congressmen yet again to tell them that an amnesty program under a different name is still an amnesty program.

Unfortunately, the problem with illegal aliens is not going away until Bush exits the White House, about 150 Democrats lose their next election, and roughly 6 Republicans are sent packing as well.

As for now, however, we can tell the elitist sleazebags in Washington that we STILL don't want this immigration compromise.

Fallacy of 'Guest Worker' Amnesty Plan Exposed!

The Political Elites vs. the Common Citizenry

Washington, DC (TLS). John Derbyshire at National Review has a most interesting article today about the immigration problem in America.

However, he says that a problem that is every bit as serious as illegal aliens is the fact that average Americans overwhelmingly OPPOSE a bill that their elected officials want desperately to pass.

In short, the elites and the commoners are poles apart on this issue. Increasingly, average voters are treated by their elected representatives as ignorant hayseeds who obviously don't know what's good for them.

And guess who's about to win this test of the wills? The immigration/amnesty bill proposed by Ted Kennedy, John McCain, and supported by President Bush and others from both Parties, has been resurrected and has a good chance of passing.

The voters be damned.

Online Petition to Enforce Border Security

Washington, DC (TLS). While political elites fall all over themselves trying to pass an amnesty program for illegal aliens, average American citizens have made it abundantly clear they DO NOT want a new law. They want the OLD LAWS enforced!

Thus, not surprisingly a citizens' movement has arisen with a petition to let our elected representatives in Washington know that we want the borders secured NOW...and we don't need a new immigration reform bill to do it.

Bush Legacy--Illegal Alien Population Explodes

Washington, DC (TLS). President George W. Bush is searching so frantically to find a lasting 'legacy' that he and his aides are making horrible mistakes. The Immigration Bill is a perfect case in point.

What the President seems to fail to grasp is that his legacy is already being determined, in part, by immigration--the illegal kind.

V-Dare has the exact figures of the explosion of illegal aliens flooding the country during the Bush Presidency:

Dems Defeat Amendment to Immigration Bill

Washington, DC (TLS). CNS is reporting that Democrats in the Senate have defeated an amendment to the immigration bill--an amendment that would have prevented anyone from gaining legal status who had fake documents, committed crimes, or ignored deportation orders.

The amendment was offered by Texas Republican John Cornyn but was harshly denounced by one of the bill's co-sponsors, Senator Ted Kennedy.

Kennedy said the following about the amendment: "This amendment would exclude hundreds of thousands from benefits in this bill and undermine the bipartisan compromise that members of this body worked so long and so hard to produce."

Cornyn's amendment was entirely reasonable and appropriate. Kennedy's words provide only more proof of the absolute mockery of the U.S. Constitution he has foisted on the public for over 30 years.

No Law Can Be Enforced 100%

Washington, DC (TLS). Statistically it is impossible to enforce every law 100% of the time. This is no argument against those laws, however.

How would you like it, for example, for all child abuse laws to be repealed simply because many child molesters get away with their crimes?

Such a point of view is entirely laughable. Yet this is precisely the argument being used in favor of the new immigration bill (which is just an updated version of the old immigration bills that grant amnesty).

The common argument is that we cannot deport 12 million illegal aliens. True. We cannot. It does NOT follow, however, that therefore we must change the law to accommodate law-breakers. If this argument is valid, then it is entirely reasonable to repeal child abuse laws because we cannot enforce them 100%.

We may not be able to deport all of them, but we can sure deport a LOT of them!

GOA Issues Alert on Immigration Bill

Washington, DC (TLS). Gun Owners of America has issued a special alert concerning the new immigration bill backed by the White House, Ted Kennedy, and John McCain. This bill contains provisions that could shut down every gun shop in America.

In crafting this ill-conceived bill, gun-grabbers Ted Kennedy and John McCain could not resist including provisions that would target gun stores. If a gun shop with as few as 5 employees commits at least two violations of federal gun laws, including paperwork violations, that store could be designated as a 'criminal gang' and shut down.

In addition, if an anti-gun zealot in the government determines that the 'main purpose' of that gun shop is to commit gun violations, then it can be shut down.

My friends, ambiguous wording such as this, aimed at gun stores, is simply one more way the anti-gun bigots in Washington have determined to rob the citizens of their Constitutional rights.

SOUTH CAROLINA'S RAGE TOWARD LINDSEY GRAHAM

Columbia, SC (TLS). Senator Lindsey Graham, R-SC, finds himself in deep political trouble in his home state of South Carolina. Graham raised the ire of the Republican base when he helped broker the present 'immigration compromise bill' that is supported by Ted Kennedy, John McCain, and President Bush.

The fact that Graham supports John McCain in his Republican Presidential nomination bid is increasingly viewed as an albatross hanging around the Senator's neck.

With McCain losing support among the Party faithful, and with the Kennedy-McCain-Bush immigration bill viewed by most as an amnesty program for illegal workers, Republicans in South Carolina have begun to turn their rage toward Graham.

A grassroots coalition has sprung up within the state that is seeking to rescind Graham's election to the Senate. In short, they want to immediately remove him from office.

By overwhelming majorities South Carolinians want secured borders, immigration limitation and control, and a commitment on the part of elected officials to uphold and enforce the immigration laws that are already on the books.

Graham is increasingly viewed as someone who does not share the views of the majority of the people in his state.

The Liberty Sphere believes that the Senator is in deep trouble politically. If he survives the move to have him removed from office, he has an election to face next year. With opposition mounting, it is looking doubtful that Graham could win another term.

South Carolina's other Senator, Jim DeMint, another Republican, has been solidifying his popularity in the state by his steadfast opposition to the immigration bill. When South Carolina voters compare the two, given DeMint's more compatible views with the majority of the state's electorate, Graham comes out looking like a square peg trying to fit into a round hole.

It will be interesting to see just how strongly the ill winds toward Graham are blowing in South Carolina.

Why John McCain Will Never Be President

Washington, DC (TLS). Republican Presidential candidate John McCain has begun to become unraveled a bit as the campaign heats up. There is yet a long, long way to go toward the Republican nomination, yet the candidate is already showing signs of strain under the pressure.

On Monday, for the second time in less than a week McCain went ballistic on a fellow Republican over disagreements on the Kennedy-McCain-George W. Bush Immigration Reform bill. Responding to Mitt Romney's continued attacks on the provisions of the bill, McCain went neanderthal by saying, 'Maybe he can get out his small varmint gun and drive those Guatemalans off his yard.'

Not only was the statement terribly ill-advised, but the context and timing were near-suicidal politically.

McCain has made no friends among those multi-millions of Americans who have serious concerns about the nation's safety and security in the midst of an immigration policy that is raging out of control. Americans largely do not like what they see, and they suspect that most politicians in Washington are simply not listening to their concerns.

McCain, along with Kennedy, Clinton, Obama, and many more, are some of the worst offenders. So is George W. Bush.

Thus, when McCain compares Mitt Romney's opposition to a bill that grants amnesty to illegal aliens who work here to a hayseed rednecked hillbilly with a varmint gun, driving 'them thar foreigners' off his property, he has immediately lost his connection with the vast majority of the population.

The thing is, this is the 2nd time in less than a week that McCain has gone ape over the immigration bill, at the expense of another fellow Republican. In that particular exchange, McCain was overheard hurling several denigrating expletives at his colleague in the midst of a heated argument about border security and immigration control.

Americans come away from these kinds of displays with the distinct impression that McCain is simply not in touch with the American heartland on this issue. And they certainly are leery of a candidate for President who cannot listen to opposing points of view without blowing his stack.

Thus, it is our opinion that the candidacy of John McCain is, for all intents and purposes, over. His candidacy never caught on like it did in 2000, and he has lagged behind in fund-raising. Giuliani is clearly running circles around McCain when it comes to capturing the loyalty of moderate Republicans--McCain's ONLY major source of support.

It's been a very bad week for John McCain--a week that may well go down in history as the week that ruined his chances for being President.

The Vanishing American--A Coup in the Making?

Washington, DC (TLS). The blogger over at 'The Vanishing American' has posted a sobering analysis of the new emerging immigration compromise endorsed by the White House, Ted Kennedy, and John McCain. Apparently there is a growing body of evidence that suggests that a coup is in the making with measures such as this being shoved down the throats of American citizens.

In spite of the fact that consideration of the Kennedy-McCain Immigration Reform bill has been placed on hold until after the holiday break, it is clear that there are individuals and forces within the U.S. and Mexican governments that are complicit in an attempt to change American society from top to bottom, with Mexico being the clear winner and America being the loser.

A Sensible Approach to Immigration

Washington, DC (TLS). Most of the proposals put forth by politicians thus far to address the nation's bizarre and uncontrolled immigration problem simply do not address the pertinent issues. At the top of this list is the latest so-called 'compromise' bill on immigration reform put forth by Kennedy-McCain and the White House.

Amnesty is clearly NOT the answer.

An entirely sensible, workable, and cost-effective approach to the problem has been put forth by Jessica M. Vaughan of the Center for Immigration Studies.

Vaughan made the proposal public in the summer of 2006. It has gone largely unheeded except for a few lone voices in the Republican Party, such as Duncan Hunter, Tom Tancredo, and others.

It is time to re-examine her proposal, which is provided here:

Illegal Aliens Commit 90% of Murders in L.A.

Los Angeles, CA (TLS). Here's an eye-opener for you. Statistics from the Los Angeles Police Department and the California Department of Justice show that illegal aliens commit over 90% of the murders in Los Angeles.

This is simply another example of the consequences of a reckless national policy on immigration--a policy that does not even pretend to enforce the laws that are already on the books.

Statements have been made by some in the debate over immigration that perhaps the driving force of the opposition to open borders and amnesty programs is that 'we don't want those kinds of people in the republic.'

You bet your sweet bottle of Corona I don't!

Why would I want to open up the country to gangs of thugs who plunder, pillage, pilfer, and perpetrate mayhem? Those who come here to work, learn English, become accustomed to our culture, and support our government and way of life are welcome. Those who come here for the freebies and to fly the Mexican flag are NOT welcome. It is simple as that.

In a city as large as Los Angeles and its near-uncontrollable crime problem, for over 90% of the murders to be committed by illegal aliens is nothing less than horrifying.

The nation's immigration problem is totally out of control, and the bill put forth by Ted 'Senator Blowhard' Kennedy and John McCain, and supported by George W. Bush, will NOT reign it in. We need to enforce the laws already on the books, and the main one is that part of the U.S. Code that states the aiding and abetting of illegal aliens is a FELONY.

I want to know when we are going to arrest and throw into jail politicians and business leaders who violate that part of the U.S. Code on a regular basis.

If we cannot even bring ourselves to enforce the laws already on the books, how in the HELL do we think a NEW law is going to clean up the mess any better?

OUTRAGE! Illegal Aliens Voting In Texas!

Washington, DC (TLS). My friends, this story will let you know EXACTLY where this illegal alien mess will lead us. If this doesn't get your blood boiling, nothing will.

Illegal aliens are voting in Texas. And they have been doing so for the past several elections.

It is time to tell George Bush, Ted Kennedy, Harry Reid, and John McCain that we WILL NOT tolerate their behavior on this issue!
