immigration in america..

our immigration policy in this country has officially been validated.. (i know we've all been waiting for this) according to a report by the Pew Hispanic Center, illegal immigration now out paces legal immigration in this great land of ours.. as a matter of fact, according to this study, illegal immigration has topped legal immigration for 4 of the last 10 years.. i think we can safely agree that when the number of people breaking the law to get in to your country is greater than the people wanting to get in through legal means, your immigration policy is a total failure.

some estimates have 20,000,000 illegal immigrants in this country right now.. we have no idea who these people are or where they've come from.. yet we pay tax dollars to support their healthcare and schooling needs.

we talk a lot about port in our national budget - the amount spent on supporting this nation of illegal aliens dwarfs the pork in the highway bill, etc.. now the question is, why would anyone immigrate to the usa via legal means ?? it's a beurocratic nightmare.. obviously this is very broken.

g-dub has stuck his head in the sand on this.. hoping to make a play for the hispanic vote.. but successful, legal hispanics in this country are against this invasion as well. this creates a more difficult for these hard working people to get ahead in.. they end up lumped in with the illegal behavior and it hurts them as a whole.

no one seems to have the huevos (hey, i can speak spanish!) to stand up for this.. and as bad as the president is on this issue - the democrats are worse !!

the infrastructure expenses for maintaining this illegal nation of people in the united states will buckle state and local governments before long.. and i have yet to mention the stream of muslim folks across the border.. i wonder if they're here for day labor jobs.

homosexual indoctrination in kindergarten?

The headline reads:
Lexington, Mass., father of 6-year-old arrested, spends night in jail over objections to homosexual curriculum in son's kindergarten class.

let's examine what this headline says.. a father of a 6 year old gets thrown in jail due to his objections to the indoctrination of his SIX YEAR OLD CHILD to homosexuality in KINDERGARTEN.

such are the state of things in massachusetts.. and it gets better.. the father, who came to the school to see if he could opt his child out of this FORCED INDOCTRINATION and was arrested and thrown in jail, got lectured by the judge for not being respectful..

additionally, in a neighboring township, another family was threatened with arrest for trying to video tape a schoolwide assembly pushing homosexuality and gay marriage..

i thought we were all to celebrate such things ?!?

i'm sure nambla is super excited about the prospect of being a guest speaker at kindergarten classes statewide.. i figure since the gay lobby can't infiltrate the boy scouts, they're now going to be aiming for pre-school and kindergarten classes.. and educators on the whole are leftist, socialist, pro-gay 'do good-ers'..

the prospect of taking time from teaching children how to read and write to teach them that sometimes daddy and daddy like to do it in the butt seems outrageous to me.. the fact that the court system is supporting this by threatening people with arrest and then following through with arresting parents who disagree with the indoctrination.. it makes you really take a step back and think about what is going on in this country..

let's remember- the 10 commandments are outlawed.. any talk about absolute right and wrong is condemned as 'hate speech.' the assault on traditional marriage is championed.. saying God in the pledge of alleigance is outlawed.. yet, teaching children who are learning the basics of reading and writing that homosexual behavior is something to be celebrated and embraced is just fine. and any words against such things will be met with JAIL TIME..

it's freedom of speech as long as you're talking about the agenda the courts want to progress.. should you have a differing opinion, a different point of view - one that marriage should be between a man and a woman.. one that teaching 6 year olds about homosexuality is wrong (or teaching 6 year olds about sex period) - you are demonized. we're watching the erosion of morality before our very eyes..

i like this quote (and this will make all of the Godless insanely mad) "The Bible teaches that being lovers of selves is mankind's problem. Psychology teaches that being lovers of selves is the solution.."

i've found, on a personal basis, i'm never more miserable than when i'm thinking about me.. and i'm never happier than when i'm thinking of others.. i'm watching the usa weigh ourselves down with our nihilism and drown in self concern and self absorbtion. there is a reason paxil, prozac and all the other mood enhancers are such big sellers.. so many people are miserable because they have no true purpose or hope and they delight in dragging others into their misery and self absorbtion.. it's continually celebrated in society.. you're not to be happy unless you're unhappy.. and it's cause for celebration when we teach our small children to celebrate homosexuality in between the alphabet and addition.

happy happy in china

if you're in china and you like your news any other way than happy and healthy, you're about to be s.o.l. as if we in the west needed any more evidence of china's intentions.. china has always been a secretive, reclusive country and now they don't want any news on this internet gizmo making it to their citizens.. they don't want news that that might make them aware that they have rights, their government tramples those rights and communism has failed.. so, you chinese folks are gonna get the big censor.. and that means no more reading this blog.. so sad..

the story:

Associated Press
BEIJING - China said Sunday it is imposing new regulations to control content on its news Web sites and will allow the posting of only "healthy and civilized" news.
The move is part of China's ongoing efforts to police the country's 100-million Internet population. Only the United States, with 135 million users, has more.
The new rules take effect immediately and will "standardize the management of news and information" in the country, the official Xinhua News Agency said Sunday.
Sites should only post news on current events and politics, according to the new regulations issued by the Ministry of Information Industry and China's cabinet, the State Council. The subjects that would be acceptable under those categories was not clear.
Only "healthy and civilized news and information that is beneficial to the improvement of the quality of the nation, beneficial to its economic development and conducive to social progress" will be allowed, Xinhua said.
"The sites are prohibited from spreading news and information that goes against state security and public interest," it added.
While the communist government encourages Internet use for education and business, it also blocks material it deems subversive or pornographic. Online dissidents who post items critical of the government, or those expressing opinions in chatrooms, are regularly arrested and charged under vaguely worded state security laws.
Earlier this month, a French media watchdog group said e-mail account information provided by Internet powerhouse Yahoo Inc. helped lead to the conviction and 10-year prison sentence of a Chinese journalist who had written about media restrictions in an e-mail.
As part of the wider effort to curb potential dissent, the government has also closed thousands of cybercafes - the main entry to the Web for many Chinese unable to afford a computer at home.
Authorities in Shanghai have installed surveillance cameras and begun requiring visitors to Internet cafes to register with their official identity cards.
The government also recently threatened to shut down unregistered Web sites and blogs, the online diaries in which users post their thoughts for others to read.

vomit vomit vomit

please note the distress and emotional drain on cindy's face as she is arrested..

dirty, nasty, fifty-cent media whore..

sheehan goes to jail..

moveon.org stoodge, cindy sheehan has gone to jail.. as she continues to buy in to her own hype, thinking she is important in the public eye.. she fancies herself as a MLK or ghandi or some important figure in history.. when, in fact, she is a mouthpiece for a foreign funded, anti-american, socialist group hell bent on taking away anything and everything that has made america great.. she hides behind her son's death, but instead, she's turned his honored service in to a macabre celebration of all servicemembers deaths.. she delights in the blood of american soldiers by her actions but claims to support them with her mouth.. as the saying goes, your actions are so loud i cannot hear what you're saying, cindy..

the arrest story:

WASHINGTON (AP) - Cindy Sheehan, the California woman who has used her son's death in Iraq to spur the anti-war movement, was arrested Monday while protesting outside the White House.
Sheehan and several dozen other protesters sat down on the sidewalk after marching along the pedestrian walkway on Pennsylvania Avenue. Police warned them three times that they were breaking the law by failing to move along, then began making arrests.
Sheehan, 48, was the first taken into custody. She stood up and was led to a police vehicle while protesters chanted, "The whole world is watching."

her self importance is nauseating..

it's been a week..

ice cream for allah..

well well well.. we have now reached new depths in islamic pc behavior.. according to scotsman.com, burger king has been threatened by jihad for having an ice cream lid that looks too much like the symbol for allah.. here is the story:

Burger King recalls 'sacrilegious' desserts JOHN INNES
THE fast-food chain, Burger King, is withdrawing its ice-cream cones after the lid of the dessert offended a Muslim.
The man claimed the design resembled the Arabic inscription for Allah, and branded it sacrilegious, threatening a "jihad".

The chain is being forced to spend thousands of pounds redesigning the lid with backing from The Muslim Council of Britain. It apologised and said: "The design simply represents a spinning ice-cream cone."
The offending lid was spotted in a branch in Park Royal last week by business development manager Rashad Akhtar, 27, of High Wycombe.
He was not satisfied by the decision to withdraw the cones and has called on Muslims to boycott Burger King. He said: "This is my jihad. How can you say it is a spinning swirl? If you spin it one way to the right you are offending Muslims."
A Muslim Council spokesman said: "We commend the sensitive and prompt action that Burger King has taken."

well, i can just see it now.. waves of suicide bombers attacking burger kings around the world to defend the honor of allah (the 'all powerful' *cough* *wheeze*) because a lid to an ice cream product has something that may (or may not) look like a symbol representing this arabian moon god..

so, next time you 'spin your swirl', be sure not to do it to the right..

marga-RITA-ville..

couldn't resist.. anyway, rita looks to be making a migration toward key west and will make landfall soon.. for the fruitcakes trying to reason with the hurricane season, this is not the typical lovely cruise to that one particular harbor, it is instead sending them in the shelter and making them incommunicado while they wait for manana to get back to livin' it up.

the weather is here, wish you were beautiful.

12 jimmy buffett songs named here. my work is done..

hurricane cindy..

she couldn't stand not being the center of media attention, so cindy just had to visit the hurricane ravaged gulf coast.. she brought her considerable power to bear on the situation.. i'm not sure if she had the time or thought to channel her son's spirit again to get his take on the situation, but she sure was able to come up with some more absurd nonsense.. get this.. she's now calling new orleans an 'occupied' city.. her quote:

"George Bush needs to stop talking, admit the mistakes of his all around failed administration, pull our troops out of occupied New Orleans and Iraq, and excuse his self from power."

"I saw soldiers walking around in patrols of 7 with their weapons slung on their backs. I wanted to ask one of them what it would take for one of them to shoot me. Sand bags were removed from private property to make machine gun nests."

if she's not a disgrace to her son and his service to this country, i don't know who is.. she has lost all of her perspective in life and is literally lost.. she's now relegated to posting on michael moore's website.. all the cameras are off of her.. so she feels the need to interject herself where she does not belong.. i have a feeling her 15 minutes is very close to being up

and the skies grew dark..

the natives grew restless as the light ran from the skies.. children hid their eyes from the landscape of the forsaken.. that, or it's just texas weather again

g-dub writes a love note..

this picture is about to erupt on the world scene - apparently it's a picture of george bush writing a note to condi rice at the un meeting today.. i personally am thinking he's making a personal commentary of all the nonsense that comes out of that worthless, corrupt world body.. having to sit through that would certainly, at the minimum, give me a major case of gas.. it may have moved him in a different way..

it's somewhat sickening that we have to host this group of crooks and terrorists on our soil and listen to them denigrate the united states.. the fact this iranian clown can come over here, run off at the mouth about unilateralism and so on.. it's just sickening.. as if he has some position of moral authority to say a single thing to anyone about anything. he's gonna turn out to be a mess for us and that region.. mark my words.

anyway, you saw it here first.. the un makes g-dub sick to his stomach.. and me too.

the seattle rattle..

i have some important news for my friends up in the pacific northwest.. the next 2 weeks, you're on an 'earthquake watch'

live science is reporting that the chance of a major earthquake is 30 times more likely for the next two or so weeks..

from live science:

The slip began Sept. 3 on the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State and has migrated north to the Vancouver Island area, Cassidy wrote. Victoria moved 0.12 inches (3 millimeters) to the West over the course of two days. The events are thought to last six to 15 days.
Cassidy's colleague, Stephane Mazzotti, has done some calculations on the odds of a large temblor.
"The probability of occurrence of a megathrust earthquake is about 30 times higher during this approximately two-week window, than during the rest of the 14.5 month cycle," Cassidy told LiveScience. "Having said that, 30 times a small number is still a small number."
Geologists simply don't know when one of these events will trigger a major quake, Cassidy said.
The immediate importance of the event is that it occurred as predicted and can now be used to improve understanding of the region's seismology.
"By better understanding these events, we will be able to better predict the effects (and perhaps timing) of future magnitude 9 earthquakes along the West Coast," Cassidy and his colleague write.
A separate study recently concluded that a major earthquake along the fault could be overdue, given clusters of the events seen in the geologic record. Because the fault is offshore, scientists say its rupture could create a devastating tsunami.

the palestinian myth

a great piece that is worth re-reading..

"There are no Palestinians"
By Larry Miller
The Weekly Standard April 21, 2003

A brief overview of the situation is always valuable, so as a service to all Americans who still don't get it, I now offer you the story of the Middle East in just a few paragraphs, which is all you really need.

Don't thank me. I'm a giver. Here we go:

The Palestinians want their own country. There's just one thing about that: There are no Palestinians. It's a made up word. Israel was called Palestine for two thousand years. Like "Wiccan," "Palestinian" sounds ancient but is really a modern invention. Before the Israelis won the land in war, Gaza was owned by Egypt, and there were no "Palestinians" then, and the West Bank was owned by Jordan, and there were no "Palestinians" then. As soon as the Jews took over and started growing oranges as big as basketballs, what do you know, say hello to the "Palestinians," weeping for their deep bond with their lost "land" and "nation."

So for the sake of honesty, let's not use the word "Palestinian" any more to describe these delightful folks, who dance for joy at our deaths until someone points out they're being taped. Instead, let's call them what they are: "Other Arabs Who Can't Accomplish Anything In Life And Would Rather Wrap Themselves In The Seductive Melodrama Of Eternal Struggle And Death."

I know that's a bit unwieldy to expect to see on CNN. How about this,then: "Adjacent Jew-Haters." Okay, so the Adjacent Jew-Haters want their own country. Oops, just one more thing. No, they don't. They could've had their own country any time in the last thirty years, especially two years ago at Camp David. But if you have your own country, you have to have traffic lights and garbage trucks and Chambers of Commerce, and, worse, you actually have to figure out some way to make a living. That's no fun. No, they want what all the other Jew-Haters in the region want: Israel.

They also want a big pile of dead Jews, of course -- that's where the real fun is -- but mostly they want Israel. Why? For one thing, trying to destroy Israel - or "The Zionist Entity" as their textbooks call it -- for the last fifty years has allowed the rulers of Arab countries to divert the attention of their own people away from the fact that they're the blue-ribbon most illiterate, poorest, and tribally backward on God's Earth, and if you've ever been around God's Earth, you know that's really saying something.

It makes me roll my eyes every time one of our pundits waxes poetic about the great history and culture of the Muslim Mideast. Unless I'm missing something, the Arabs haven't given anything to the world since Algebra, and, by the way, thanks a hell of a lot for that one.

Chew this around and spit it out: Five hundred million Arabs; five million Jews.

Think of all the Arab countries as a football field, and Israel as a pack of matches sitting in the middle of it. And now these same folks swear that if Israel gives them half of that pack of matches, everyone will be pals.

Really? Wow, what neat news. Hey, but what about the string of wars to obliterate the tiny country and the constant din of rabid blood oaths to drive every Jew into the sea? Oh, that? We were just kidding.

My friend Kevin Rooney made a gorgeous point the other day: Just reverse the numbers. Imagine five hundred million Jews and five million Arabs. I was stunned at the simple brilliance of it. Can anyone picture the Jews strapping belts of razor blades and dynamite to themselves? Of course not. Or marshaling every fiber and force at their disposal for generations to drive a tiny Arab State into the sea? Nonsense. Or dancing for joy at the murder of innocents? Impossible. Or spreading and believing horrible lies about the Arabs baking their bread with the blood of children? Disgusting. No, as you know, left to themselves in a world of peace, the worst Jews would ever do to people is debate them to death.

Mr. Bush, God bless him, is walking a tightrope. I understand that with vital operations coming up against Iraq and others, it's in our interest, as Americans, to try to stabilize our Arab allies as muchas possible, and, after all, that can't be much harder than stabilizing a roomful of supermodels who've just had their drugs taken away.

However, in any big-picture strategy, there's always a danger of losing moral weight.

We've already lost some. After September 11 our president told us and the world he was going to root out all terrorists and the countries that supported them. Beautiful. Then the Israelis, after months and months of having the equivalent of an Oklahoma City every week (and then every day) start to do the same thing we did, and we tell them to show restraint.

If America were being attacked with an Oklahoma City every day, we would all very shortly be screaming for the administration to just be done with it and kill everything south of the Mediterranean and east of the Jordan. (Hey, wait a minute, that's actually not such a bad idea. . . .ooh, that is, what a horrible thought, yeah, horrible. . . .)

here we go again...

you're just not a good judge unless you take God outta everything..

By DAVID KRAVETS
Associated Press Writer
SAN FRANCISCO
Reciting the Pledge of Allegiance in public schools was ruled unconstitutional Wednesday by a federal judge who granted legal standing to two families represented by an atheist who lost his previous battle before the U.S. Supreme Court.
U.S. District Judge Lawrence Karlton ruled that the pledge's reference to one nation "under God" violates school children's right to be "free from a coercive requirement to affirm God."
Karlton said he was bound by precedent of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which in 2002 ruled in favor of Sacramento atheist Michael Newdow that the pledge is unconstitutional when recited in public schools.

as if the 9th circus ever knows what they're talking about in the first place..

the sex offender next door..

is it me, or can you identify a sex offender from a mile away.. they all seem to have something just a little bit off when you look at them.. but just to make sure, we register them, we have on-line databases which tell you where they live and we have all kinds of laws on the books to send these guys away for a long time in various states..

well, in my spare time in front of my computer, spent burning my retinas out, i came across a database of sex offenders... so, on a whim, i put in my zip code and what do you know.. i've got a guy who likes little boys right around the corner.. when i say little, i mean little... convicted for molesting a 6 year old..

now, being a single guy, with no kids and somewhat carefree on that front, this kinda crud still pisses me off.. my neighborhood is full of little kids playing hide and seek, chasing dogs, riding bikes.. and to think we've got some weirdo pervert right around the corner is downright sickening. this guy isn't very old either.. born in 1984, i believe.. so he's a 21 year old going after 6 year olds.. i don't know about you, but when you have 21 year olds preying on 6 year olds, we prolly need to lock them up for the next forever..

more fingers pointing toward syria..

from middle east news line:

WASHINGTON [MENL] -- A northern Syrian city has been deemed the launching pad for foreign fighters recruited for the Sunni insurgency in Iraq.
The Syrian city of Aleppo has become the the key departure point for Al Qaida-aligned fighters destined for Iraq. Islamic sources and U.S. officials said foreign fighters have been advised to arrive in Aleppo to ensure their entry into Iraq.
The Syrian Al Qaida-aligned website Minbar Suria al-Islami [www.nnuu.org] has called for experienced fighters to join the Sunni insurgency in Iraq. The website urged the fighters to maintain a low profile in Syria and arrive in Aleppo.
In a posting entitled "Advice to Brothers Seeking Jihad in Iraq," the website discouraged inexperienced youngsters from seeking to join the insurgency in Iraq. The posting said the Al Qaida-aligned insurgency does not have a shortage of fighters, rather requires specialists.

slowly but surely there is a case being made for action against syria. the united states will base the action on syria's inability and unwillingness to stop funding and facilitating the insurgency in iraq.. an interesting sidebar to this will be syria's response to US action against them. i think the assad government will take a similar approach to saddam in gulf war I. i think if the US attacks syria, you will see swift retaliation for that against israel. and that retaliation could possibly be chemical/biological in nature. there is still a significiant part of the intelligence community that feels iraqi wmd's made the trip to syria prior to the invasion..

regardless, if the flow of insurgents from syria does not slow, the war on terror could be headed west again.. from afghanistan to iraq to syria..

chemical weapons & iraq

The military bureau of Jaish al-Taefa al-Mansura (Army of the Victorious Community) has decided to strike strategic and sensitive targets belonging to the (US) forces of occupation and apostates (Iraqi government forces) in Baghdad, with non-conventional and chemical weapons" unless the Tal Afar operation is called off.

obviously, chemical weapons would up the ante in this insurgency. it's interesting to also note the seriousness of the verbiage from the united states toward syria and their involvement in the insurgency..

“Our patience is running out,” he said at news conference over help Damascus is giving radical groups in Iraq.
Asked how Washington would respond, the ambassador said “all options are on the table,” including military.
The United States believes Iraqi Sunnis are holding back on the new Iraqi constitution because of threats from Sunni extremists who have infiltrated from Syria, where they have training camps, said Khalilzad.

palestinian's (disco) inferno..

upon the withdrawl from gaza, the palestinian folks there just couldn't wait to get out their lighters and start burning the synagogues.. they get the land they wanted, they get the autonomy they've been asking for and the very first thing they can think to do is start burning things down..

Prime Minister Ahmed Qurie urged Palestinians to stop looting and start rebuilding in abandoned Jewish settlements on Tuesday following Israel's military withdrawal from Gaza. A day after the pullout..

well, i guess the best thing anyone could think to do when they get the land they've always wanted is burn it up.. genius. the fact the world community still panders to this group of 'false' refugees is sickening.. further evidence of the bias against israel.. lets reward the suicide bombers with land.. then lets all sit back and watch these folks burn up their new land. they most recently have decided to tear down and loot prized greenhouses which would/could feed the folks of that region..

i feel comfortable in saying that we will see gaza fall in to chaos.. the pa will have no control of that area - egypt will have to get involved due to blowback over THEIR border.. and the number of attacks on israel will increase. this will set the stage for the overall failure of a palestinian state.. yet more and more pressure will mount on israel to surrender the west bank.. and they will cave in, esp if that pressure comes from the united states..

big easy curse on the superdome..

there is a blog entry from nola.com by jon donley today that is suggesting that the superdome may have been cursed.. could this be the reason the saints haven't won ? read on:

By Jon Donley
NOLA.com
There is intense irony in the Superdome becoming the symbol of the horrors of Hurricane Katrina. In New Orleans lore, it's a haunted building - a cursed structure in this city that lives shoulder to shoulder with its Cities of the Dead.

Visitors are familiar with our huge expanses of above-ground tombs in dozens of cemeteries across the city. Coming in from the airport on Interstate 10, the "gateway" to downtown is flanked by sprawling Greenwood Cemetery on the left, and the elite Metairie Cemetery on the right. Downtown, the old St. Louis No. 1 Cemetery is a prime tourist spot, and has appeared in many movies. In the Garden District, diners at Commanders Palace's second floor can look out over Lafayette No. 1, filled with victims of Yellow Fever plagues.

But you can't visit the old Girod Cemetery. Abandoned for years, its iron caskets and bones were tossed up by excavation gear in the early 1970s as the crews moved in to build . . . the Superdome. Beneath the now-shredded roof and the fetid stinking mess of excrement and blood where tens of thousands huddled in storm and flood . .. and some died . . . likely lie even more unexcavated bones.

And local lore is that the Superdome was cursed . . . a punishment for desecrating this City of the Dead. Exorcists and voodoo priestesses have been here to dispel the curse. That lore will no doubt expand into an even more gruesome story for buggy drivers in the Quarter to enchant their passengers.
