Hence, the title of my blog

'Nuff said.

Quite the discussion going on at hotair (click the main link to go there). He has gone around the bend. Spitting on a co-worker? He should be reprimanded for this.

Oh for crying out loud!

Senators this afternoon are hiding behind closed doors, drafting a massive, 400-page amendment that will replace huge chunks of the Bush-Kennedy bill currently being debated. Senate leaders are hoping to use the new substitute amendment to reverse changes made over the last 24-hours they don't like, such as the Cornyn amendment on information sharing and the Dorgan amendment that sunsets the Y guest worker program.

Have they not learned their lesson? Enough is enough on this.

The Price They Pay for Survival

From Gates of Vienna

Reason #4,323 to support the Minutemen...

It seems that when woman employ the “guides” that take you across the Mexican -U.S. border (called “Coyotes”), one thing these women must endure is the routine practice of being raped and as a visual reminder to all that come after —her bloodstains are left in the dirt and her panties are hung from the branches of a tree.

“This is the picture that pro-immigration advocates don’t want you to see....

It is time the American people put a stop to the travesty of our open borders. It is time to understand that “open borders” means they are open to every kind of evil, including gang rape and human trafficking.

For any decent, law-abiding American, to see a rape tree is to gaze upon the face of the enemy of civilization. To see the blood-stained ground beneath them is to behold the faces of their victims...

It would seem that any self-respecting feminist would have to be against the illegal immigration that gives these horrible people the power and opportunity to treat woman and children this way...

I cannot add any more to this. Go to Gates of Vienna and see the image.

Let Aliens Vote: Activists

Saw this on Drudge

Immigrant-rights activists yesterday renewed their push to allow legal noncitizens to vote in the Big Apple.

Aren't there rules already in place for this? 200 years later? And this issue is NOT resolved?

"More than 50,000 adult noncitizen taxpayers in those two districts are disenfranchised by citizenship voting laws," said Cheryl Wertz, of New Immigrant Community Empowerment, referring to today's special election for council seats in Brooklyn and Staten Island.

Emphasis mine. From their mission statement on their website

New Immigrant Community Empowerment (NICE) is a cross-cultural, non-profit organization that uses organizing, advocacy, and public education to ensure that new immigrants are active, informed, and influential in civic, governmental and public affairs. Central to NICE’s mission is challenging the access gap between recent immigrant communities and government, seeking systemic solutions to improving immigrants’ voting rights, full language access, health care, and workplace protections under local, state and federal laws.

This makes NO sense. If you become a citizen you have full access to all this. So what is it that this group really do? Continuing the article.

Councilman Charles Barron (D-Brooklyn), the sponsor of the Voting Rights Restoration Act, said that years ago, when immigrants were mostly European, they had voting rights.

And just WHAT did the good Councilman say in 2005?

Among those testifying in support of the bill was Bryan Pu-Folkes, executive director of New Immigrant Community Empowerment.

"In New York City, 20% of New Yorkers, or one of every five adults, are disenfranchised because of their citizenship status," he argued.Councilman Charles Barron (D-Brooklyn) voiced strong support for the bill, contending that resistance to allowing noncitizens to vote is motivated by a reluctance of whites to give up power.

"White men just have too much power," he commented. "They just don't want to give up on power."
