$1.6 mil to restore Chicano murals with communist images

In its push to help the increasingly powerful La Raza movement the Obama Administration is dedicating over a million and a half dollars to restore Chicano murals — some featuring renowned communists — in one state and cancelling more than 1,600 deportations in two others. — It’s part of the administration’s ongoing effort to cater to the influential open borders lobby…

3 more victims of weak immigration enforcement

The politically-correct immigration practices of the administration led to a rather gruesome murder in Florida, as reported by the Miami Herald. — Career criminal Kesler Dufrene, a Haitian, had been caught red-handed committing a burglary in 2006. He was serving a five-year prison term when Dufrene, who had received a deportation order, was handed over to immigration officers. That was September 2010…

WHY should we allow illegals a college seat while we turn away American veterans?

YES TO HB 59 in Georgia!

Please help us save Georgia’s classroom seats in public-funded universities and Tech Schools for legal residents who are actually eligible to work in the USA! HB 59 does exactly that!

Please call, email and fax Higher Education Com. Chairman Carl Rogers, Majority Leader Larry O’Neal and Speaker David Ralston and ask them to send HB 59 to the House floor for a vote ASAP.

Your message:

“Please use your leadership position to move HB 59 to the House floor for a vote. The bill was put on hold last year in order to devote full attention to HB 87, which became law last year once again proved that immigration enforcement works.

Sen. Chip Rogers, who authored the 2006 law, testified in the House Higher Education Committee last year that it was intended to preserve Georgia’s university seats for students who are citizens or legal residents.

HB 59 says that the Board of Regents must obey the clear intent our 2006 illegal immigration law by requiring public universities to verify that alien applicants are eligible to attend.

Georgia has a limited amount of educational resources and college seats. It makes no sense to spend taxpayer dollars for the education of a student who cannot legally work in the country upon graduation. Likewise, it makes no sense to displace veterans and others in order to admit illegal aliens.YES to HB 59!”

More, if you have time: Opponents of HB 59 say that we should not punish illegal-alien children for what their parents have done. But since we have a limited number of college seats available for children of LEGAL immigrants, I would suggest that we should not punish them for what their parents did NOT do – defy our immigration and employment laws.

I have confidence that you will listen to the voting public and push for more immigration enforcement measures like HB 59. Remember, people like me support this legislation because enforcement works.

What Ann Coulter and the GOP dare not say about immigration

In a recent election piece, pundit Ann Coulter identified illegal migration as one of the two most important issues of our time. She writes that if we fail at halting it, “the country will be changed permanently.” She continues: Taxes can be raised and lowered. Regulations can be removed (though they rarely are). Attorneys general and Cabinet members can be fired. Laws can be repealed…

“…To be fair, Ann Coulter at least made passing mention of this reality when she slipped into her piece that “Massive legal and illegal immigration has already so changed the California electorate [emphasis added]….” Yet with the exception of Pat Buchanan, yours truly and a few others, this is an area where you’re more likely to hear the truth from leftist commentators – when they’re licking their chops over how successful they’ve been at importing their voters. Just consider, for instance, a 2011 NPR piece in which Mara Liasson cites a study by Ruy Teixeira at liberal feel tank Center for American Progress and writes:

Recent surges in the number of Hispanics in Arizona and Georgia could make those states potentially friendlier to Democratic candidates as well next year [2012]. Teixeira thinks similar population shifts could make holding on to Pennsylvania, where the president campaigned Wednesday, a little bit easier.

And if you think it’ll be a bit easier in 2012, wait till you see 2022.

And 2032 and 2042? Well, Orwell’s calling.

The fact is that upon being naturalized, our modern-day immigrants generally vote Democrat by wide margins – irrespective of whether upon arrival they were labeled legal or illegal.

And this isn’t hard to understand. Would you expect a devout Muslim to relinquish his faith upon setting foot on American terra firma? Would you suppose that mere passage across a border could magically transform a committed communist into a fan of free markets? My point is that ideology is much like religion: It is something deep-seated. It becomes part of a person’s self-image and gives his life meaning. And whether or not America is still the land of the free, it’s certainly not the land of the free from harsh realities.

And the reality is this: Most of today’s immigrants’ native lands have socialist-type governments because their peoples support socialist politicians. This is why Democrats import them: so these new arrivals can support socialist politicians here. They’re casting the votes Americans won’t cast…”

We support HB 59 in Georgia

HB 59 POINTS

A BILL to be entitled an Act to amend Chapter 36 of Title 50 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, relating to verification of lawful presence within the United States, so as to clarify that postsecondary education is a state and local public benefit; to reserve postsecondary education benefits to citizens and lawfully present and eligible aliens; to require verification of the eligibility for such applicants for such benefits through the federal SAVE program; to provide for related matters; to repeal conflicting laws; and for other purposes.

HB 59 points

* HB 59, proposed by Gwinnett state Rep. Tom Rice is essentially a bill that says we must obey the law passed in 2006 (OCGA 50-36-1) and that all public universities and tech schools in Georgia must ask for proof of eligibility from student applicants for admission and verify that aliens who apply are indeed eligible, using immigration status.

* Governor Nathan Deal supports the concept and promised action as candidate:
“Question: “If elected, will you do whatever necessary to prohibit illegal aliens from attending any school in Georgia’s university system and our technical college system? This is a YES or NO question.

Barnes: “I am not in favor of illegal immigrants attending Georgia’s public colleges and universities.”

Deal: “Yes.”

(in the Marietta Daily Journal August, 2010

*The Regents hope to convince us that Georgia has an unlimited and infinite number of resources and public funded college classroom seats. We don’t.

* The radical hard left that opposes HB 87 (of course they do) wails that we should not punish illegal alien children for what their illegal alien parents have done. Maybe, but with Georgia being a destination and home for hundreds of thousands of real, legal immigrants from all over the world and a limited number of public college classroom seats, one needs to ask why we would punish their lawfully present children for what their parents did not do - intentionally and brazenly violate American immigration and employment laws while taking advantage of the federal mandate that we educate their children K-12.

* Why would we dedicate any of our limited taxpayer financed state post secondary education resources to educate a student who is in the country illegally when that individual is not eligible to work anywhere in the country upon graduation?

* If you have asked yourself why we would turn away a member of the U.S. military - or a veteran - because we admitted an illegal alien…well, me too.

* The author of the 2006 state immigration law, Senator Chip Rogers, testified to “legislative intent” in a February 2011 House Higher Education Committee hearing on HB 59. He made it clear that the law’s intent was to preserve Georgia’s university classroom seats for students who are either U.S. citizens or lawfully present aliens.

Senator Don Balfour, chairman of the Senate Committee on Rules also took the time to testify at the 2010 House committee in favor of the bill and carefully explained that his own son had been denied admission from a local university because it had no available seats for his selected classes. His son was a member of the United States military.

• At least two Democrats in the House have said they want to not only expand enrollment of illegals in Georgia’s post secondary system, but also reward them with instate tuition… MDJ last week HERE http://mdjonline.com/view/full_story/17109805/article-Two-Cobb-Democrats-want-in-state-tuition-for-illegal-immigrants?instance=secondary_story_left_column

Federal law (8USC1621 - which is part of OCGA 50-36-1) on illegals and post secondary education:

Enforcement activist: Atlanta breaking state immigration law

By Tom Regan

ATLANTA —
An outspoken advocate of immigration enforcement has filed a complaint with a state compliance agency against the city of Atlanta.

The complaint accuses Atlanta’s mayor and city council of violating HB87, Georgia’s immigration law that was passed last year. The complaint says the city continues to accept Mexican government photo identification cards as valid for city government transactions.

The cards are called “Matricula Consular.”

“The Matricula Consular is listed as unacceptable identification in HB87. On their ordinance, they’re accepting it for any transaction as proof of identity,” immigration enforcement activist D.A. King said.

King told Channel 2’s Tom Regan the MC card, which is officially issued by the Mexican Consulate, is counterfeited and sold online. He said it is easily copied and duplicated, making it unreliable.

“These cards are not difficult to get. I have two of them myself,” King said.

One of the cards shows a picture of King and identifies him as “Al Qaeda Gonzolez.” The card was shown in an online article by a Hispanic newspaper advocating use of the card in Mexico.

“We have cases of law enforcement officers that have stopped people [who are] in the country illegally that not only have one or two Mexican Metricula Consular cards, but as many as 12 with different names,” King said.

Regan went to the Mexican Consulate of Atlanta for comment on the card controversy. A representative said no one was available for comment Tuesday.

A representative for Mayor Kasim Reed told Regan the law department of the city of Atlanta would look at the complaint and the ordinance to determine if acceptance of the MC identification is illegal under state immigration law.
