....AT LEAST HE HAS THE COURAGE TO SPEAK HIS MIND!!!
I don't know how everybody else feels about it, but to me I think Hispanic people in this country, legally or illegally, made a huge public relations mistake with their recent demonstrations.
I don't blame anybody in the world for wanting to come to the
United States of America, as it is a truly wonderful place.
But when the first thing you do when you set foot on American soil is illegal it is flat out wrong and I don't care how many lala land left heads come out of the woodwork and start trying to give me sensitivity lessons.
I don't need sensitivity lessons, in fact I don't have any-thing against Mexicans! I just have something against criminals and anybody who comes into this country illegally is a criminal and if you don't believe it try coming into America from a foreign country without a passport and see how far you get. What disturbs me about the demonstrations is that it's tanta-mount to saying, "I am going to come into your country even if it means breaking your laws and there's nothing you can do about it."
It's an "in your face" action and speaking just for me, I don't like it one little bit and if there were a half dozen pairs of gonads in Washington bigger than English peas it wouldn't be happening.
Where are you, you bunch of lily livered, pantywaist, forked tongued, sorry excuses for defenders of The Constitution? Have you been drinking the water out of the Potomac again?
And even if you pass a bill on immigration it will probably be so pork laden and watered down that it won't mean anything anyway Besides, what good is another law going to do when you won't enforce the ones on the books now?
And what ever happened to the polls, guys? I thought you folks were the quintessential finger wetters. Well you sure ain't paying any attention to the polls this time because somewhere around eighty percent of Americans want some thing done about this mess, and mess it is and getting bigger everyday.
This is no longer a problem, it is a dilemma and headed for being a tragedy. Do you honestly think that what happened in France with the Muslims can't happen here when the businesses who hire these people finally run out of jobs and a few million disillusioned Hispanics take to the streets?
If you, Mr. President, Congressmen and Senators, knuckle under on this and refuse to do something meaningful it means that you care nothing for the kind of country your children and grand-children will inherit. But I guess that doesn't matter as long as you get re-elected.
Shame on you.
One of the big problems in America today is that if you have the nerve to say anything derogatory about any group of people (except Christians) you are going to be screamed at by the media and called a racist, a bigot and anything else they can think of to call you
Well I've been pounded by the media before and I'm still rockin' and rollin' and when it comes to speaking the truth I fear not.
And the truth is that the gutless, gonadless, milksop politicians are just about to sell out the United States of America because they don't have the intestinal fortitude to stand up to face reality.
And reality is that we would never allow any other group of people to have 12 million illegal in this country and turn around and say, "Oh it's ok, ya'll can stay here if you'll just allow us to slap your wrist."
And I know that some of you who read this column are saying "Well what's wrong with that?"
I'll tell you what's wrong with it. These people could be from Mars as far as we know. We don't know who they are, where they are or what they're up to and the way the Congress is going we're not going to.
Does this make sense? Labor force you say? We already subsidize corporate agriculture as it is, must we subsidize their labor as well?
If these people were from Haiti would we be so fast to turn a blind eye to them or if they were from Somalia or Afghanistan ?
I think not.
All the media shows us are pictures of hard working Hispanics who have crossed the border just to try to better their life.
They don't show you pictures of the Feds rounding up members of MS 13, the violent gang who came across the same way the decent folks did.
They don't tell you about the living conditions of the Mexican illegal some fat cat hired to pick his crop.
I want to make two predictions.
No. 1: This situation is going to grow and fester until it erupts in violence on our streets while the wimps in Washington drag their toes in the dirt and try to figure how many tons of political hay they can make to the acre.
No 2: Somebody is going to cross that border with some kind of weapon of mass destruction and set it off in a major American city after which there will be a backlash such as this country has never experienced and the Capitol building in Washington will probably tilt as Congressmen and
Senators rush to the other side of the issue.
I don't know about you but I would love to see just one major politician stand up and say, "I don't care who I make mad and I don't care how many votes I lose, this is a desperate situation and I'm going to lead the fight to get it straightened out."
I don't blame anybody for wanting to come to America , but if you don't
respect our immigration laws why should you respect any others?
And by the way, this is America and our flag has stars and stripes Please get that other one out of my face.
God Bless America

St. Valentine's Day - for ever for lovers
Today, the media big guy MSNBC.com has a story about "anti-Valentine's Day" celebrations. I gotta tell you - I am steamed. First it was Christmas, now Valentines? Go home you Cupid haters!
Well, I love Valentine's Day! I love what it stands for and the history of it. Of course, I am sure the secular American movements want to keep that out of the equation. God forbid the ACLU found out people know the day is actually that of a patron Saint!
St. Valentine's Day was the celebration day of a saint who was martyred for marrying couples who were in love and were prohibited from marrying because the man had to serve in the Roman army.
Today, I love to celebrate with my husband and children. Anti-Valentines? Just another method for attacking American traditions. If you want to pamper yourself - I say go for it - but, don't rain on my parade.
As far as pressure to get "just the right gift"...my favorite Valentine's have ALWAYS been the ones my kids make. And last year, all I wanted from my husband was a simple inexpensive ($25) silver claddagh ring, and dinner that I did not have to cook. Simple, easy and no pressure.
Don't like lovers? Stay home and eat frozen pizza with some ripple. I will relax and enjoy my family!

Illegal immigrants do NOT deserve amnesty!!!
Hope y’all understand this – I love America and I feel anyone who wants to come here – the correct way and add their history to ours should be able to do so. But, I HATE people who cut in line – at the bank, the grocery store – and in regards to immigration.
Regardless of the fact that the “illegal” alien is “paying” into the system, he/she has STILL broken a number of laws. He/she has STILL stolen another person’s Social Security number. He/she has STILL circumvented America’s immigration laws. He/she should NOT get “credit” for any funds “paid” into Social Security under a stolen number – what they should get is deported. End of story. Perhaps our immigration laws need to be re-worked (okay, they DO need to be re-worked) but the way to affect this change is not by disregarding them completely.
Those of your neighbors, family, friends, and co-workers who have illegal immigrants cutting lawns and doing work that they prefer to hire out are contributing to the erosion of our country as a strong economic backbone of this continent. It is not “convenient” to go pick up a day laborer to do work on the yard or house – it is a crime.
Consider the following – not counting my Native American ancestors – Iroquois and Mohawk both (and we will leave a discussion of treatment of Native Americans to another day) – my Italian and Scottish/Irish great-grandparents came here legally through a process and were required to learn the language so that they could get work, read packaging in the grocery store, navigate the cities and towns, and communicate with others. There was no product packaging written in Gaelic or Italian. Street signs were not written in their native language either. Job applications, driving tests, etc were in English only.
This country needs to STOP being so politically correct. We are destroying this nation by our misguided belief that to be a “good” American or a “good” Christian, we must look the other way while “minorities” are allowed to break laws with no repercussions. Well, there are MAJOR repercussions – schools are declining in their quality and ability to provide services. Teachers are leaving service because of requirements that they be bi-lingual and teach in both Spanish and English. Hospitals are closing because they are not being paid for services provided to people who are not legal immigrants – and therefore have no insurance and most have no intention of paying out of pocket. Jails are filling up because of serious increases in crimes – the percentage of crimes committed by illegal aliens is higher than any other social group. Why is this? Perhaps because they are “desperate” or perhaps because they have already committed felonies and gotten away with it – so why not? It becomes easier the further you slide into lawlessness. In Texas, a number of brutal killings of police officers and civilians have been recently committed by illegals – people who had already been deported at least one time!
Maybe you think I am callous or racist or just plain stupid. But, let me tell you this – America has a short time to pull its collective heads out of our collective butts. The laws against illegal immigration that are on our books right now need to be enforced. We need to close our borders to protect from further illegal immigration. We need to stop the NAFTA super highway construction from the Mexican border to the Canadian border. We need to take a good hard look at true immigration reform. We need to END this environment of “Politically Correct” stupidity and raise our social values for our children before it is too late and this country becomes a warm fuzzy memory.

Illegal means ILLEGAL - not a victim of racism!
Okay people, here is the deal. Immigrants are fabulous. My grandparents and great-grandparents were immigrants.
Immigrants built this great country on the sweat of their backs. Immigrants have always brought additional skills and culture to the wonderful United States. Immigrants who are LEGAL.
Legal means that you came to this country by following the LAWS passed by the government and citizens of the country. Legal means you have your very OWN Social Security Number, not one stolen from someone else who's credit and name you have trashed. Legal means you pay taxes - attributed to the Social Security number mentioned previously. Legal means you pay car insurance so if you wreck someone, the accident doesn't leave the person YOU injured out a lot of money. Legal means your children are ENTITLED to the school education they are getting because you contribute money to the cost of that education. Legal means you did not commit three felonies to get north of the Rio Grande - or South of the Canadian border - or East or West of ANY other border. Because ILLEGAL doesn't have a color Illegal is simply CRIMINAL.
Try being a legal immigrant and see if people don't feel differently about you. Try being legal and learning the doggone language that my LEGAL immigrant grandparents - and EVERY other LEGAL immigrant - had to learn because street signs are not printed in Gaelic and Italian.
Stop asking for "Rights" that you do not deserve because you are ILLEGAL and get off your Godforsaken soap box because if you are not legal, you belong in prison - or at least back in whatever country it is that you came from.

Islamic Cartoons
Just plain silly people taking themselves WAY too seriously.
Okay, this is a reproduction of the 12 cartoons that have caused such a big flap all over the world. Now, in my honest opinion, they are not even all that funny. I did chuckle at the one with Mohammed in heaven trying to stop the jihadists because they ran out of virgins. A chuckle, mind you, not a huge belly-laugh. I don’t know, perhaps I just do not get Danish humor.
Here is what I think: I think the Muslims need to get a grip and take a good serious look at their lives. If you cannot laugh at yourself, you probably need therapy. Not sure, but again, this is my Blog – and thus, my opinion.
