Hitler is Alive and Well

From Mark Levine:

Concerned U.S. officials and Jewish groups yesterday demanded answers from Iran after a shocking report that Tehran's radical leaders passed a Nazi-style law requiring Jews and Christians to wear identifying badges. Renowned Iranian-affairs expert Amir Taheri reports that the law, approved by Iran's parliament last week, "envisages separate dress codes for religious minorities, Christians, Jews and Zoroastrians, who will have to adopt distinct color schemes to make them identifiable in public." Jews would be forced to wear yellow cloth strips – like the Star of David that Jews were made to wear in Nazi Germany – while Christians would have to wear red strips, wrote Taheri. The purpose is to protect Muslims from becoming "unclean" by accidentally shaking hands with them, he said. World leaders, human rights groups and Jewish and Christian organizations were stunned.

This Hilter wannabe is pushing his country's nuclear clock closer and closer to midnight.

Transcript of the Presidents Speech

I have fellow mutts that got their paws on the transcript of the presidents speech from Monday.

Below are the ACTUAL words spoken by President Bush.

Good evening my fellow Americans. Tonight I come to you with an admission, an admission of my complete lack of responsibility to the American people. I have been asleep at the wheel of this great nation. I will now correct this terrible mistake. I am now aware of the greatest problem facing our nation. The illegal border crossings of our southern border. Tonight I will address and tell the American people what is now underway.

First, I have given our regular Army the assignment to invade and secure the new 51st state, Canada, we will now be able to secure and start production of our oil in the great state of Canada, sorry Texas, you are no longer one of the largest states in our great nation.

By making Canada our 51st state, we will no longer have to worry about the northern border. Also I won't have to listen to the previous Canadian government complain about our vessels in the northern waters. Enough said about Canada.

Now to the matter at hand, our southern borders.

I will be deploying the National Guard to patrol, arrest and detain any person caught trying to enter our great nation illegally. I know President Fox is going to be upset, but to him I say, GET OVER IT, you have done nothing to help your own people, you have ignored human rights and are one of the most corrupt countries. Since I have said I wanted the borders of Iraq to be secure, I knew I was a putz for not paying attention to our own borders.

The Guard will be allowed to carry their weapons, use of those neat Hummers, the Apache and other helicopters, our newest technology, the Drones and they will be allowed to engage the Mexican Federallies should any try and cross over into our great nation. These government coyotes will no longer aid the drug runners and lords, they will if seen, be treated the same way we did to Sudam, I have authorized the use of our new Federally Bomb. This bomb is similar to our Bunker Busting Bomb, only a little smaller. For every illegal alien caught crossing our border, I have decided that one card carrying ACLU member will be also rounded up and sent back across the border with them.

Next, I will make the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement department start doing their job. They will effective Tuesday morning, raid and arrest the CEO and possibly the complete Board of Directors of Tyson Meats, and Cargil, as we know they are some of the largest employers of illegal aliens. I know my buddy Ray "The Hoodlum" LaHood will be upset, but Ray, I have become a man, I recommend you do the same.

As for those already here, I know many have said you can't round them all up, but I say they just don't know the power of the IRS. The IRS will now be aiding in the rooting out and identification of all illegal immigrants. As each one is caught, they will be returned to their mother country, be it Mexico, China, Iran or any nation that they belong to, the Canadians get a pass as we now own the great 51st state of Canada.

As for our lackluster Congress and Senate, I can see that you are also to blame, you have ignored the great people of the United States and have instead decided to listen to the lobbyist and special interest groups. You are no longer allowed to stay in Washington DC, you will have to work out of the areas that elected you. When we need your vote, I will be using that new Microsoft thing that lets us do our conferences on the Internet. Also I will allow every computer geek to smack Al Gore in the nape of his neck, each time he says he invented the Internet.

So, as I stand here tonight, sorry for not listening, I want the American people to know I am truly sorry.

Goodnight, and God Bless America.

Free Speech or Rude Comments?

It seems that last week Peoria Pundit had an incident which brought about the dreaded deleting of a post. It then led to the banning of a certain bloggist and the removal of his link. Since we still live in a free and open society, one which allows the exchange of ideas and comments, can have its good points and bad. Bill Dennis of Peoria Pundit is well within his rights to decide what is allowed or disallowed on his own blog, and I respect the right that Bill has exercised. I too have had to censure and remove some postings from a person that feels lewd and rude language is the way to present a point, well really not a point, it seemed rather to engage in childish insults.

The post in question seems to have started harmless in its nature over at the Peoria Pundit, but soon disintegrated into sharp exchanges between a few of the regular posters. While it wasn't a Red vs Blue state exchange, it did involve those that think on opposite sides of the street. While I didn't see the post in question that drove Bill's ire into play, and created the possible question of libel, I do know it was the typical exchange of why one won't allow comments and others do allow comments and the suggestion of our banned blogger being a small child (which the comments themselves smell of immature actions). Since the non-comment allowing blogger is also within his right to not take comments publicly, he is also within his right to post on others blogs that do allow comments. To say since he doesn't allow commenting means he shouldn't comment on their sites, is a pretty weak argument. If we live with that ideology, then I guess unless you run a blog, you shouldn't post a comment on another's blog.

Since I do feel Bill can ban, delete or unlink from anyone he wishes, even if it was for the fact that he doesn't like their screen name, I do feel that the matter that created this incident should have been more evenly handled. All parties that decided to exchange barbs, continue the exchanges should have received the same penalty that our banned blogger received. I also hope that Bill will reconsider the ban, and let the blogger return. I rather enjoy his comments as well as the "typical liberal" posters. Diversity is what makes the whole blogging world so fun, interesting and irritating all at the same time.

Hat Tip To Peoria Chronicle on Kellar Branch Questions

Peoria Chronicle's Chris Summers has some excellent questions as they relate to the ongoing Kellar Branch debacle.

The Journal Star has another editorial on the Kellar Branch today. I’m surprised it took them this long to write it, considering all their editorials on this issue follow the same boilerplate. Once again, it’s time to set the record straight:

Recall that Carver was the Kellar branch’s only customer, and that the city of Peoria built the company a $2 million extension so it could continue getting deliveries.

This is revisionist history. Peoria did not “buil[d] the company a $2 million extension.” The resolution which passed on May 15, 2001 stated explicitly the reason for extending the spur was “to retain long-term cost effective, direct rail service to Pioneer Industrial Park and future rail service to Growth Cell #2….” It was not just to benefit Carver Lumber, unless the council was lying about their reason for building it. (Insert cynicism here.)

It’s also worth noting that there were several other businesses on the Kellar Branch before the city started their attempt to de-rail it. So the fact that Carver is the “only” customer now is to the city’s shame. Is the Journal Star happy they’ve run these businesses out of town for the sake of a trail?

I encourage everyone to read his excellent article. Vonster also has placed some maps of the proposed trail. 

Spying On Our Own Citizens. Things Must Change!

I don’t know about you, but the recent revelation of notifying the Mexican government about the location of the Minutemen has to be one of the most insane events so far. Tracking down the person/people in our government that handed down this order will probably never be known. In fact I am willing to bet they will find a patsy similar to the soldiers charged in the torture episodes at Abu Grab or at Guantanamo Bay. We all know the real villains will not face the public, but instead some poor underling that was only following orders. Hopefully Darrell Issa’s letter to Michael Chertoff of the Department of Homeland Security will at the least generate some type of investigation. But oddly our liberal, mainstream media is ignoring this latest event.

Below is the letter that Congressman Issa is sending to Mr. Chertoff in regard to the passing of information about our own citizens to a foreign government. Since when did our government find the right to spy and then inform foreign powers? Of course, President Bush is mum on the whole matter.

May 9, 2006

The Honorable Michael Chertoff
Secretary
Department of Homeland Security
Washington, DC 20528

Dear Secretary Chertoff:

I am greatly disturbed by reports that personnel from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and possibly other branches of the Federal Government, have compiled and shared surveillance information with Mexican authorities on law abiding American citizens who legally alert the U.S. Border Patrol about smuggling and other illegal border crossings.  As a member of the House Judiciary Committee, I am concerned that your department lacks Congressional authorization to conduct domestic surveillance of law abiding citizens, as has been reported, and am disturbed by the allegation that Department of Homeland Security resources and personnel have been deployed as de-facto agents of a foreign government.

American citizens have a long tradition of forming community watch programs that report illegal activity to relevant law enforcement personnel. These efforts have been proven effective and deserve the support of our government.

As you well know, corruption in the Mexican government is rampant, and links among drug cartels, smugglers, and the Mexican government are frequently uncovered.  By sharing information about the location and activities of law abiding American citizens who participate in community border watch programs, I am concerned that your department may be putting the lives and safety of these individuals at risk, as well as inadvertently aiding those who illegally attempt to cross our borders.

I strongly support community and border watch efforts to legally aid and enhance the resources of local police departments and federal agencies like the Border Patrol.  The allegation greatly disturbs me that your department would intentionally undermine the efforts of patriotic American citizens who seek to provide information to Federal agents about illegal crossings and other activities.

I request that your Department immediately suspend all activities that provide the Mexican government with inappropriate surveillance information about law abiding American citizens and provide me with a detailed account about what information has been shared with Mexican authorities about U.S. citizens who engage in legal community watch programs.

Sincerely,

Darrell Issa
Member of Congress
 

Whether you are a Democrat or a Republican, you should be angry that our own government is stepping up their efforts to allow the continuing onslaught of illegal aliens, as well as the erosion of our civil liberties and rights.

The Biggest Coyote? Well it must be President Bush

What can be a bigger burner then to find out that our own government is helping the illegal aliens to cross undetected. Posted at the DailyBulletin tells of our own government and boarder guards passing on information to the Mexican government on the location of the various Minutemen patrols. Oddly we live in the United States with all the politically correct madness that is going to be our own ruin. Seems to show the Mexican government we care about these criminals, Supposedly our notification of Mexico on Minutemen is to show we are watching out for these illegals rights. What rights do the homeowners along the US/Mexican boarder have? Easy, none.

From the DailyBulletin 

While Minuteman civilian patrols are keeping an eye out for illegal border crossers, the U.S. Border Patrol is keeping an eye out for Minutemen — and telling the Mexican government where they are.

According to three documents on the Mexican Secretary of Foreign Relations Web site, the U.S. Border Patrol is to notify the Mexican government as to the location of Minutemen and other civilian border patrol groups when they participate in apprehending illegal immigrants — and if and when violence is used against border crossers.

A U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokesman confirmed the notification process, describing it as a standard procedure meant to reassure the Mexican government that migrants' rights are being observed.

"It's not a secret where the Minuteman volunteers are going to be," Mario Martinez said Monday.

"This … simply makes two basic statements — that we will not allow any lawlessness of any type, and that if an alien is encountered by a Minuteman or arrested by the Minuteman, then we will allow that government to interview the person."

Minuteman members were not so sanguine about the arrangement, however, saying that reporting their location to Mexican officials nullifies their effectiveness along the border and could endanger their lives.

"Now we know why it seemed like Mexican officials knew where we were all the time," said Chris Simcox, founder of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps. "It's unbelievable that our own government agency is sending intelligence to another country. They are sending intelligence to a nation where corruption runs rampant, and that could be getting into the hands of criminal cartels.

"They just basically endangered the lives of American people."

Officials with the Mexican consulate in Washington, D.C., could not be reached for comment Monday.

One has to start wondering just what the agenda is from Washington. A President that calls the criminals crossing into our country Immigrants, but yet calling those crossing into Iraq terrorist. Double standards? You bet. It will be interesting to see just what backlash comes from our politicians total ignoring of the "LEGAL" US citizens.

Kellar Branch – Industry – Trails – Bikes – Sexual Assault

How wonderful that we have the Peoria Park District, the City of Peoria and my favorite fools Greg and Dan at WMBD 1470 telling us that the Kellar Branch, once turned into a bike/recreational trail will be all about improving our health, economy and pride.

Let's see, the park district files for a grant for a future bike trail that is a currently operating railroad, and don't even have ownership, then we have the wonderful city of Peoria, who has the priorities of a 2 year old, no they listen to the spoiled little child Peoria Park District and ignore the federal laws (STB) and the Peoria Rail Commision, creating what has to be large sums of taxpayer money on lawsuits, and WMBD's star monkey team that feels that it would be better if Carver Lumber was gone so they could have a trail, though the city of Peoria is doing their best to make that happen, costing Carver over $60,000 to date for bungling of a short 9 mile railroad, hiring a new operator to deliver cars to Carver, who's former corporate officer was charged with a murder for hire scheme, who on their first day of business lose control of 3 rail-cars, damaging the cars, the track and surely damaged the product they were to deliver. I say Peoria needs to cough up $60,000 to Carver for their neglect and reckless disregard of a longtime Peoria business.

But the best part now, is that the great savior of our health and economy, could be a path way for the sexual perverts we have living in Peoria. On May 5th in broad daylight a women was attacked on the upper part of the Rock Island trail, the same trail that will be connected near the Pioneer Park area and finish up down by the river. Imagine that in broad daylight, near the Dunlap section a women was assaulted, now imagine that we have the wonderful trail going threw some of the higher crime infested areas of Peoria. Is it now too much of a stretch to think we may see similar crimes against those eager trail folks in some of the higher crime areas of Peoria?

David Jordan has been very vocal and has even rallied on WMBD to bring out the issues, only to have the wonderful monkey crew tell the Peoria listeners that for the greater good, we need that trail, we don't need jobs, namely Carver Lumber. Even more alarming is that we haven't even been told the true costs for this great health and economy booster for Peoria.

What A Wingnut Or Too Dumb For Their Own Good

No Illegals = No Burritos? What a wingnut this sombrero wearing card is. Oh I better think twice, okay, guess what Mexicano, I am betting I can buy a burrito at Taco Bell any day of the week, in fact in some areas after midnight.

The threats and complete refusal to speak English is enough. Let's talk the real facts here. You Mexicans aren't about Immigration Reform, you are about your own race, not the other Immigrants, not the millions of legal folks asking for visas or green cards, no you lazy smucks want us to hand you even more free perks. I for one am pretty fed-up with these tools.

They aren't here to be Americans, no they are here for jobs, and as such feel there is no need to assimilate to our culture. These type of protestors are lazy, worthless, uneducated people, they are Illegal Alien Protesters that should have been arrested and marched right back home. The Great Gringo Boycott was a joke, we didn't fold, we are even more pissed off that you think we need to add amnesty to the other benefits you get. The legal immigrants are also tired of your selfish ways. I see a backlash like no other coming if they keep this crap up. Since our politicians are too damn dumb to figure it out, I guess the American people will be making changes themselves.

Vonster is Right!

Oddly no one wants to address the Communist angle to the marches…

A Great Idea and the Perfect Solution

Immediate adopt Mexico's progressive

and enlightened laws and policies

regarding foreign immigrants.

What could be more fair????

P.S. The group behind the "protests" is

a neo-communist bunch called

A.N.S.W.E.R.

Too bad our Liberal Polictically Correct, hide their heads in the sand, Media, Democrats and the other folks that feel soooo sorry for these ILLEGAL ALIENS…

A Day Without Illegal Aliens or How to Have a Safer US of A

Congressman King pretty well says it as it should be:

The May 1^st anti-Gringo-fest is also being billed as "A Day Without Immigrants" which is a misnomer on a couple of counts. First, the threatened boycott fails to conjure the image of a Norwegian refusing to buy his May 1 lutefisk at the corner Fareway. Second, the pro-amnesty groups are insistent on confusing legal and illegal immigration. Let's not start mixing our apples and oranges. The issue before Congress is illegal immigration. Perhaps the May 1^st boycott should give America a glimpse into "A Day Without ILLEGAL Immigration."

What would that May 1^st look like without illegal immigration? There would be no one to smuggle across our southern border the heroin, marijuana, cocaine, and methamphetamines that plague the United States, reducing the U.S. supply of meth that day by 80%. The lives of 12 U.S. citizens would be saved who otherwise die a violent death at the hands of murderous illegal aliens each day. Another 13 Americans would survive who are otherwise killed each day by uninsured drunk driving illegals. Our hospital emergency rooms would not be flooded with everything from gunshot wounds, to anchor babies, to imported diseases to hangnails, giving American citizens the day off from standing in line behind illegals. Eight American children would not suffer the horror as a victim of a sex crime.

Smart man, maybe we need a new person to run for President.

Of course my liberal friends will label him a Zenophobe, but hey! So am I…

An additional comment: To bad we have Ray "The Hoodlum" LaHood as a Congressmen. This man has taken the special interest monies and voice of the meat packers instead of listening to his own voters. Since we have a spineless weasle named Ray, and of course the PJ Czar and WMBD AM, 2 places that have the capability to point out and question him, unfortunately, will not call him to the carpet and explain his actions. Time to vote this traitor out of office.
