More PCBS from our “representatives”…at our expense.

Congressman John Boozman     

U.S. House of Representatives 

Washington, DC 20515

 

Dear Congressman Boozman,                                                                    February
6, 2008

 

Your recent multi-colored 4 questions “Tell me what you
think” political pamphlet, labeled as official business, published and mailed
at taxpayer expense is a fraud perpetrated by you and designed for the
non-thinking slugs of the 3rd Congressional District.

 

You were elected to lead, not to follow the advice of
self-serving citizens.  Your addiction
for international travels has extricated you from any meaningful Constitutional
representation.  Your questions regarding
thoughts on immigration.

1.      
We should increase funding to improve border
control by using video surveillance and physical barriers?  You voted Oct. 2007 to build & fund a 700
mile border fence; therefore, why do you ask such a stupid question?

2.      
New citizens should be required to learn
English, and English should be our country’s official language?  Naturalized citizens are already required by
law to have a reasonable understanding of English.  English is the official language of the U.S.

3.      
We should increase the number of legal
immigrants coming into our country?   This
republic takes in at least 1.5 million legal immigrants per yr, mostly 3rd
Worlders, and 2-3 million illegals yearly….Again Congressman, your question is
outright traitorous.  As you may not
know, acculturation is not taking place, resulting in Balkanization and the
destruction of the Founding population.  
There should be immediately a 5 yr moratorium on legal immigration, with
the maximum number of legals entering yearly capped at 250,000—all categories.  Any fool knows that no civilization can
withstand for long this kind of invasion. 
As you may know, you traitorous politicians have reigned in the American
citizenry by passing the Patriot Acts, The Military Commission Act, The Martial
Law Codicil, The Radicalization Act for Homegrown Terrorism, and the Hate
Crimes/Thoughts Bill…everyone of which you voted for.  All along with the genocidal destruction of
Iraq.   You have proven you are nothing
but a self-serving shill for the criminal of the ages…G.W. Bush.

4.      
We should grant amnesty to nearly 11 million
illegal immigrants  aliens in the
U.S.?  You government liars have pushed
this “11 million” figure to the point of insult.  You know very well there are some 20-30
million illegals presently in the U.S. 
Congressman, you used the word amnesty….that is a NO NO, “path to
citizenship is what is acceptable by Bush & his shills.  Congressman, you live in the cradle of
criminality in the matter of illegal drug distribution, and illegal Mexican
& OTM invasion.  Should we grant
amnesty? No.  We deport and at the same
time arrest John & Don Tyson, the Georges, the Simmons, et al. in
accordance with 8 USC, Sections 1325, 1324a, 1324c, 1644.    

 

Congressman Boozman, you have never once discussed with
your constituency the attack on our sovereignty, not only by Mexicans & OtM’s
but criminal Bush’s North American Union and the Trans-Texas Corridor, not to
mention the collapse of our economy, the illegal crime wave, policing the world
(with which you are of course quite familiar due to your global NATO
trips).  Our country with a 14 trillion
debt and you voting for continued doling out billions for that postage stamp of
terror Israel is unconscionable.   How
many free trips have you made to Israel, theoretically paid for by the Israeli
government, but in reality paid for the American Taxpayer?  Now banks are being bailed out by foreign
governments with any number of caveats.  
And again to vividly demonstrate the stupidity of the U.S. government,
you well know this being involved in the now criminal institution known as
NATO, I mention the 34,000 troops stationed on the 39th parallel in
So. Korea who have been there over 50 yrs and we learn the So. Korean
government is bailing out Citi Group and the same goes for Europe. Don’t you
see anything wrong with the U.S. protecting a foreign power, and at the same
time that power is buying up our country?

 

Congressman, your Fort Smith office resembles and could
be called Mexico North.

 

Your questionnaire says “Tell me what you think”…I have summarized
your colossal traitorous conduct aimed squarely at the U.S. Constitution and
providing cheap slave labor for your handlers in NW Arkansas.   Oh yes, I forgot the biggest of the big….the
Walton’s.

 

Kindest regards,

 

Joe McCutchen

Fort Smith

 

P.S. I have called the aforementioned traitorous acts you
are engaged in as stupid.  In one sense
of the word, they are stupid, but you & your handlers know all too well
this is all by design to destroy the sovereignty of this Republic  and to dissolve the Founding national
population to install a globalist Dictatorship.

 

Enjoy while ye may, Congressman.  You have been a colossal disappointment.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

 

Governors of Mass: Mitt Romney & William (CFR) Weld

Immigration
Watchdog.com Newsletter

 


Governors of Massachusetts, Mitt Romney and William Weld.



 

The people that believe Mitt Romney is a Washington outsider are
falling for a campaign ploy that has been used for a hundred years. Mitt
Romney, as well as all the major candidates, have surrounded themselves with
the same campaign handlers that have been involved in all the Presidential
elections in recent memory.

They all have ties to George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George H. W.
Bush, Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter. The other thing they all have in common
is the Council on Foreign Relations.

All past Presidents and no doubt our next President, with the
exception of Ron Paul, will pick their cabinet from the membership of this
elitist group. The stated purpose of the CFR is “to bring about a New
World Order through the manipulation of U.S. foreign policy and relations and
through international economic interdependence.” These are people that
believe in developing a world government in incremental steps. They believe
in diluting national sovereignty by merging countries together into economic
regions (the European Union, the North American Union).

I’d like to highlight just one individual to show you what I am
talking about. His name is William Weld, he’s the former Governor of
Massachusetts and also a high ranking member of the Council on Foreign Relations.
As a CFR member, William Weld helped create policies leading to the
integration of the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

William Weld is currently the co-chairman for Mitt Romney’s
campaign in New York State. Weld has been very active in campaigning for
Governor Romney and both Governors were known to travel together during the
New Hampshire primaries.

William Weld resigned the governorship of Massachusetts after
being appointed United
States Ambassador to Mexico
by President Bill Clinton. He was
never confirmed by the United States Senate, however, and hence never served
as Ambassador. This was due mainly to opposition from Senate Foreign
Relations committee chairman Jesse Helms, who refused to hold talks on the
nomination, effectively blocking it. Though both were Republicans and though
that party held the majority in the chamber, Helms objected to Weld’s
moderate stance on several social issues.

When George W. Bush was running against John Kerry, it was
William Weld that helped Bush prepare for the debates.

William Weld co-chaired the Independent Task Force on North
America for the Council on Foreign Relations. Here is the May 2005 report
titled “Building a North American Community.” It
was created by the Council on Foreign Relations in association with the
Canadian Council of Chief Executives and the Consejo Mexicano de Asuntos
Internacionales.

George W. Bush has put the policies shaped by William Weld and
the CFR into action by creating the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America.

The Council on Foreign Relations published a speech by Mitt
Romney in their July/August ’07 issue of Foreign Affairs, titled “Rising to a New Generation of Global Challenges.”

The CFR also has a web page devoted
to Romney’s campaign issues.
The CFR is one of the most
powerful organizations on the planet. So it is unlikely that Mitt Romney will
go his own way and secure our borders, end illegal immigration and stop the
creation of the North American Union when he, like all past Presidents will
fill his cabinet with members of this elite organization. The goal of these
elitists is to create a world government and secure global monopolies for
themselves. The reason our borders remain open is because these elitists want
to abolish all borders!

So now you know why I won’t be voting for Romney or the other
CFR frontrunners, McCain, Clinton, and Obama in the primary tomorrow.

I’ll be voting for Ron Paul.

The (real) People’s State of the Union

THE PEOPLE’S STATE OF THE UNION

 

By Lynn Stuter

February 5, 2008
NewsWithViews.com

Our elected representatives are so elected to carry out the business of the
people of the United States within the construct of their oath of office: to
uphold the Constitution of the United States. The United States Constitution is
a short but well-written document enumerating the powers and responsibilities
of the three branches of government: executive, legislative and judicial,
establishing the God-given rights of the people as the masters of the elected,
not as the servants of the government.

Yet what we, the people, have watched happen is our elected representatives in
Washington DC overstep their power and responsibilities. No better example
exists of this than the Bush Administration’s illegal invasion of Iraq with the
consent of Congress yet without the required constitutional declaration of war
required by the United States Constitution.

A recent report tells us that the Bush Administration precipitated and
perpetuated a multitude of lies leading up to and following the illegal
invasion of Iraq; lies specifically intended to justify the illegal invasion of
Iraq.

At the time of the illegal invasion of Iraq, the Bush Administration promised a
short and sweet action costing a few million at the most. Now, five years
later, the cost is in the trillions with no end to the illegal occupation in
sight; with the United States building the largest embassy compound in the
world in the Green Zone in Baghdad; fortuitous of establishing a presence in
Iraq for years to come.

Time and again, as graft and corruption have colored the illegal Iraqi invasion
playing field, costing the American taxpayers billions of dollars in cost-plus
contracts with companies known to be part of the military industrial complex;
companies such as Halliburton, Blackwater, CACI International Inc, Titan, and
Kellogg Brown & Root (KBR); with the Bush Administration and Congress
taking no meaningful action to stop either the graft or the corruption.

Our young men and women come home from Iraq and commit suicide on an average of
22 personnel per week, with the United States government mouthing platitudes
intended to assuage the grief of parents, wives and family and the anguish of a
nation while doing nothing of significance to help these young men and women.

Our young men and women come home from Iraq wounded, disfigured, disabled, and
sometimes totally incapacitated with the United States government doing nothing
to help these young men and women; writing them off as a cost of doing
business, of conducting a war that is illegal from the outset.

The Bush Administration claims to be conducting the business of the people yet
Bush’s approval rating says he represents, at most, 1 of 3 Americans.

The United States Congress has put their stamp of approval on one free trade
agreement after the next, selling out the American economy and American workers
to foreign imports with the direct result of sliding wages for American workers
as the American economy slides into third world economic status.

At a time when American companies are increasingly closing up shop, laying off
American workers, and taking operations to countries where labor is cheap and
the profit margin far greater because labor is cheap and benefits are
non-existent, while the selling price of the product remains consistent with
what it would be if made in the United States, the American people are watching
the American economy slide into third world status while their paycheck won’t
pay the bills. The result is a mortgage meltdown as more and more homes go into
foreclosure; as the money to buy those expensive new cars, toys, even the
necessities of life, dries up.

Our Constitutional Republic has been turned into a tyrannical dictatorship by
the Bush Administration with the full consent and participation of the United
States Congress.

The presidents of the United States, Mexico and Canada hold secret meetings
intended specifically to merge the economies of the three countries into the
North American Union, all the while the presidents of the three countries lying
to their respective citizens, claiming they are doing no such thing, even
though the people know and have proven they are.

While the Bush Administration claims the American economy is growing, the
people know different, know that our economy is stagnating, shrinking, dying.
The result will be the collapse of the American economy, the resulting
depression (not recession) will make the Great Depression look like child’s
play. This, it seems, is the goal of the Bush Administration and Congress who
have sold out America and the American people repeatedly in what can only be
termed acts of treason.

Gross mismanagement of public funds, collected through taxation, earmarked to
pay for maintaining infrastructure, have been funneled, in a “rob Peter to pay
Paul” move, to fund social programs with no definitive price tag and no
accountability. To hide that gross mismanagement, government officials now tell
us they must sell to foreign interests’ public lands owned by the American
people.

Taxation has become a
tool of robbing the working people of the United States; the money spent
frivolously and with little to no accountability by a burgeoning bureaucracy
that cannot and will not live within its means. Once a means of taxation is
established, it is never abandoned or decreased. The tax burden on the working
people of America continues to climb unabated while the bureaucracy spends with
the abandon of an obese spoiled child. In Washington DC, billions of dollars
are earmarked annually for pet projects while Americans cannot afford a roof
over their head, food on their tables, needed healthcare, a vehicle to get them
to and from a job. The same is true of the money that has been funneled into
foreign aide, maintaining troops on foreign soil, and American intervention in
foreign countries.

Fiscal responsibility is a concept long lost on the American bureaucracy, both
state and federal.

And while the American economy continues to slide at an ever increasing rate
into third world economic status, international corporations operating in the
United States are posting exorbitant profit margins and CEOs continue to reap
millions in pay per year. In the third quarter of 2008, Exxon posted a profit
of $11.7 billion while working Americans cannot afford the gas to get back and
forth to work; while energy prices soar. America is being raped by the big
international companies while the Bush Administration and Congress do nothing.
Big international corporations, through lobbyists paid for with profits made
off the American people, buy elected officials like whores on a street corner.

American children are not receiving an education that surpasses the education
of those who came before them. With each succeeding graduating class, the
American children are receiving less and less education. Yet with each
succeeding graduating class, the cost continues to climb. With no
constitutional mandate to in any way address education, the unconstitutional
U.S. Department of Education continues to interfere in the education of
American children; establishing national curriculum, national standards, and
national goals; forcing its agenda on states through discretionary grants that,
for pennies on the dollar, control what states do in the area of education;
insuring that all states coalesce the national agenda of turning facilities of
education into workforce development centers. While the Bush Administration
touts No Child Left Behind as a new direction in education, NCLB is nothing
more than a new strategic plan replacing the Clinton Administration strategic
plan known as the Improving America’s Schools Act; NCLB is nothing more than a
furtherance of an education system intended, specifically, to not educate
children whose parents put them in government schools.

While the Bush
Administration leaves no opportunity vacant to focus the attention of the
American people on the War on Terror, it becomes readily apparent that the War
on Terror is for the specific purposes of rending from the American people
their God-given rights. While the Bush Administration claims the events of
September 11, 2001 to be the work of 19 Arab terrorists with box cutters, the
borders of the United States, north and south, remain wide open to every
illegal alien and terrorist who chooses to cross them with the Bush
Administration and United States Congress doing absolutely nothing meaningful
to secure America’s borders. To the contrary, those border patrol agents who
have tried to defend America’s borders against criminal illegal aliens have
been prosecuted by the United States Department of Justice and thrown in jail.
While George W Bush was quick to commute the sentence of his good friend and political
accomplice, Lewis “Scooter” Libby, he is silent when border patrol agents are
unjustly accused, unjustly prosecuted and unjustly imprisoned.

In this same vein, the Bush Administration has illegally authorized the data
mining of bank records, e-mails and phone calls of American citizens in
violation of existing United States law; criminal acts which remain unaddressed
by the United States Justice Department or United States Congress.

The United States Congress, at the request of the Bush Administration, has
passed laws revoking habeas corpus, Posse Comitatus, and the 4th Amendment to
the Bill of Rights prohibiting illegal search and seizure. In this same vein,
and at the request of the Bush Administration, the United States Congress
passed a law that defines anyone speaking out against the criminal acts of the
United States government as a “domestic terrorist.”

Congress also passed a law prohibiting anyone considered to have a mental
illness from owning a gun, including men coming home from war. Through the New
Freedom Commission on Mental Health, established by Bush, the push has been to
label every American as mentally defective, especially those who believe in the
United States Constitution and Bill of Rights. The American Psychiatric Association,
through the DSM-IV coding, established by a mere show of hands, has been most
obliging. Drug companies manufacturing anti-depressant drugs, while being
involved in the push to label every American as somehow mentally defective, are
raking in millions from prescribed anti-depressants; while those same
anti-depressant drugs send young people off the deep end, to suicide ideation
and violence, to taking guns to school and killing teachers and classmates. The
Second Amendment to the United States Constitution has been effectively
rendered impotent with the help of the National Rifle Association who presents
itself as defending the Second Amendment.

This labeling of every American as somehow mentally defective is no different
than the tactic used in the U.S.S.R. to label dissidents who refused to conform
to the social psychology of oppression practiced by the communists to control
the masses; the same social psychology now being forced on the American people.

This year the American people will supposedly choose a new president. But a
growing number of Americans know that, through vote fraud in the form of
electronic voting and electronic counting of paper ballots, the American people
will not choose a new leader; that a new leader will be chosen for them through
graft and corruption. Congress, well aware of this problem, has done nothing to
stop the use of electronic voting machines or electronic vote counting
machines, succumbing yet again to big money and special interests.

Mainstream media,
doing its part, has made its role in the selection of the new leader of America
for the people very apparent. The bias against the one true statesmen running
for president is so blatant and so arrogant that even the most acquiescent are
made uncomfortable by the fact of it. And the fact of what the one true
candidate stands for scares the powers that be beyond measure for what that one
true candidate stands for is truly a revolution that will carry on beyond the
general election in November 2008.

The great awakening
of the American people is in progress. It will not be stopped by other than
force of action and the letting of blood. The American people intend to take
back their country, return to their constitution, and reclaim American
sovereignty.

May God Bless the Ron Paul revolution! May God Bless American patriots!




Fools fall for anyone except Ron Paul

Fools, Fools, Fools.

Our Republic has disintegrated more in the last 30 days than
the previous 240 yrs or more.

Fools continue to worship at the altars of the Democrat
& Republican parties which have morphed into one and offer no semblance of
representative government. Fools, it’s about the TURF.

For the first time since the war between the states do we
have a bonafide Constitutionalist running for the presidency.  Additionally, he’s a gentleman, a scholar,
and a statesman…and the epitome of what Christians should be searching for.

In his stead the Fools say they are anguishing over which of
the 3 criminals they should vote for…Huckabee, McCain, Romney.  Clinton & Barak deserve no mention.   “Conservative” and “Evangelical” Fools and
others are still undergirding the antithesis of what they preach, i.e. putting
who has the best chance to win (“the lesser of evils”) in front of ethics,
morality, & Constitutionality.

Fools, do you not recognize that this is exactly what the
government establishment is counting on. 

Fools, as I have said on many occasion, this is the last
call to breakfast and if we do not show popular strength for Ron Paul, then we
will all be drawing our last breath of free air.

Fools, it’s not too late to redeem your greed and cowardice.

Fools, look at the American landscape: preemptive attacks on
foreign nations who have never offered any threat to the U.S.—Fools, do you not
understand we are the international terrorists? Fools, do you not understand
our military is stretched to the breaking point?  Are you not aware that we have an admitted
$14 Trillion national debt, giving Billions yearly to that postage stamp of
terror Israel, along with all the other Mid-East countries? Fools, do you not
understand that middleclass America, the heart, soul, & fabric of this once
preeminent Republic, is on the verge of entering the second coming of slavery?

Fools, are you aware of the Patriot Acts, The Military
Commissions Act, The Martial Law Codicil, The Radicalization Act for Homegrown
Terrorism, and the Hate Speech/Thought Crime Act?  All were passed under the guise of securing
us from “Terrorism”.   Tell me Fools, who
do you fear the most, the Federal Aristocracy or the cave-dwelling foreign
terrorists?

Fools, don’t you think that if there was a genuine threat of
foreign national terrorism we would seal our borders, deport the illegals, and
dissolve the North American Union effort?

Well Fools, the question becomes, are you willing to stand
up for an American who epitomizes the matrix the Founders envisioned, Dr. Ron
Paul, or are you going to continue to snivel in your own bankrupt matrix?

If you are willing to cross the Rubicon, you understand what
is at stake, there is no return.

Kindest regards,

Joe McCutchen

 





 

Republican Party…Red from the start

Don’t know about ya’ll, but I’m madder’n hell at the crap we
were and are being “taught” (indoctrinated with) in the government
schools.  The Collectivist attack on our Constitutional Republic began
it’s all out campaign of destruction with Lincoln (also read The Real Lincoln
by Dilorenzo) and you’ll learn more than all your years in school.

The final nails in our coffin came with the Cultural Marxists in
the early 1900’s, utilizing Antonio Gramsci’s  MARCH THROUGH THE
INSTITUTIONS began infiltrating  every important U.S. institution of our
lives and destroying without firing a shot.

 

It has worked like a charm and their weapon of Political
Correctness and all its ramifications is our tombstone.  Our only chance
is elect Ron Paul and fight back/expose politicians, bureaucrat, “education’”,
‘military-Industrial complex, mega churches, Federal Reserve, ad infinitum.

 

As Joe would say, “last call to breakfast” for personal liberty
& the Founder’s Dream.

Those who have known me for
over 6 years or so will find a lot of my long held opinions in the following
article by Stang.  I began my political party life as a Democrat (JFK
inspired) – left it after several years of seeing how dirty the innards were at
that time (and they have only grown far worse) – remained unaffiliated for a
long time and then decided to try to battle the garbage from the inside and
joined the GOP.  Didn’t take me long to see it was the same old BS I had
tried to fight in the Dem. party years before.  I have long called them
both the TWO HEADED SNAKE and said they were not to be trusted.  I have
also advocated for many years for NO POLITICAL PARTIES – Our founders spoke
against political parties and they were right on target.  We, The People,
have allowed our jailers to control all facets of our lives and have also
accepted the lie that we can only choose from one of the political
outhouses.  The stench from both outhouses should tell you what you are
going to get if you cast a vote for either of them.  We need a good Ex-Lax
politically – a colon cleanse to rid our national body of that dried up, putrid
excrement that is lining our political colon (all levels of government) – we
need to get rid of the *sticky stuff* that we know as the Democrat and the
Republican party.  We are suffering from a national case of severe
constipation which is giving us a ton of diseases because when the colon is so
clogged up, as it is – the disease of death is filling our lives and we are
trying to cure it with more of the same poisons that caused it to happen to
begin with.  Fighting fire with gasoline.

REPUBLICAN PARTY… RED FROM THE START
http://www.etherzone.com/2008/stang020108.shtml

February 1, 2008

By: Alan Stang mailto:stangfeedback@gmail.com

Many patriots these days lament that the Republican Party has “lost its
way” and “gone wrong.” It has “diverged” from the fiscally responsible, small
government philosophy of Republican heroes like Robert Taft whom Eisenhower’s
handlers finagled out of the nomination for President in 1952. We are told that
is why today’s Republican Establishment hates Dr. Ron Paul with such a passion;
that they hate him because, like Taft, he is the quintessential Republican.

Patriots who say that are mistaken, of course. The reason the Republican
Establishment hates Dr. Paul is precisely that he is not a traditional,
mainstream Republican, that his platform of freedom is an aberration. The
Republican Party didn’t “go wrong,” didn’t “go left.”

It has been wrong from the beginning, from the day it was founded. From the
beginning, the Republican Party has worked without deviation for bigger, more
imperial government, for higher taxes, for more wars, for more totalitarianism.
From the beginning, the Republican Party has been Red.

Why? In 1848, Communists rose in revolution across Europe, united by a document
prepared for the purpose, entitled Manifesto of the Communist Party. Its author
was a degenerate parasite named Karl Marx, whom a small gang of wealthy
Communists ­ the League of Just Men ­ hired for the purpose. The Manifesto told
its adherents and its victims what the Communists would do.

But the Revolution of 1848 failed. The perpetrators escaped, just ahead of the
police. And they went, of course, to the united States. In 1856, the Republican
Party ran its first candidate for President. By that time, these Communists
from Europe had thoroughly infiltrated this country, especially the North. Many
became high ranking officers in the Union Army and top government officials.

Down through the decades, Americans have wondered about Yankee brutality in
that war. Lee invaded the North, but that sublime Christian hero forbade any
forays against civilians. Military genius Stonewall Jackson stood like a stone wall
and routed the Yankees at Manassas, but when Barbara Frietchie insisted on
flying the Yankee flag in Frederick, Maryland, rather than the Stars and Bars,
that sublime Christian hero commanded, according to John Greenleaf Whittier,
“‘Who touches a hair of yon gray head/Dies like a dog! March on!’ he said.”

But the Yankees, invading the South, were monsters, killing, raping and
destroying civilian property. In one Georgia town, some 400 women were penned
in the town square in the July heat for almost a week without access to female
facilities. It got worse when the Yankee slime got into the liquor. Some two
thousand Southern women and children were shipped north to labor as slaves.
Didn’t you learn that in school?

Sherman’s scorched earth March to the Sea was a horror the later Nazis could
not equal. Why? Because the Yankees hated Negro slavery so much? There can be
no doubt that the already strong Communist influence in the North, combined
with that of the maniacal abolitionists, was at least one of the main reasons.
Slavery was a tardy excuse, an afterthought they introduced to gain propaganda
traction.

In retrospect, it appears that because nothing like this had ever happened
here, Lee and Jackson did not fully comprehend what they were fighting. Had this
really been a “Civil” War, rather than a secession, they would and could easily
have seized Washington after Manassas and hanged our first Communist President
and the other war criminals. Instead they went home, in the mistaken belief
that the defeated Yankees would leave them alone. Lee did come to understand ­
too late. He said after the war that had he known at the beginning what he had
since found out, he would have fought to the last man.

What was the South fighting? Alexander Hamilton was the nation’s first big
government politician. Hamilton wanted a strong central government and a
national bank. Vice President Aaron Burr killed Hamilton in a duel. The problem
was that Burr didn’t kill him soon enough. Henry Clay inherited and expanded
Hamilton’s ideas in something called the “American System,” which advocated big
government subsidies for favored industries and high, ruinous tariffs, what we
today call “socialism for the rich.” Clay inspired smooth talking railroad
lawyer Abraham Lincoln, who inherited the Red escapees from the Revolution of
1848 and became our first Communist President.

All of this comes again to mind with the recent publication of Red Republicans:
Marxism in the Civil War and Lincoln’s Marxists (iUniverse, Lincoln, Nebraska,
2007) by Southern historians Walter D. Kennedy and Al Benson, Jr. You must read
this book, because it irrefutably nails down everything I have said above and
then some. Let’s browse through Red Republicans, and, as we do so, remember
that the reason most Americans have never heard of all this is that the winner
writes the history.

For instance, August Willich was a member of the London Communist League with
Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Needless to say, Willich became a major general
in the Union Army. Robert Rosa belonged to the New York Communist Club and was
a major in the 45th New York Infantry. Brigadier general Louis Blenker of New
York was a “convinced Marxist.” His 10,000 man division looted people in
Virginia, inspiring the term “Blenkered.” Many of his men were fresh from
European prisons. Our first Communist President knew this, but turned them
loose on the people of the South.

In Red Republicans we learn of nine European revolutionaries convicted of
treason and banished to Australia. They escaped to the united States and
Canada. Three or four of them, with no military experience, became Union
generals, joining at least three other Marx confidants who already held that
rank. “Every man of the nine became a member of the Canadian Parliament, a governor
of a territory or state in the Union, party leader, prime minister or attorney
general.”

Many of these men, not all, were Germans, some four thousand of whom escaped to
this country. Known as Forty-Eighters, they quickly added violent abolitionism
and feminism to their Communist beliefs. In Missouri, Forty-Eighter Franz Sigel
became a Union general and had uniforms made for his Third Infantry Regiment
that closely resembled the uniforms worn by socialist revolutionaries in
Germany in 1849.

Forty-Eighters who became high ranking Union commanders included Colonel
Friedrich Salomon, Ninth Wisconsin, Colonel Fritz Anneke, Thirty Fourth
Wisconsin and Colonel Konrad Krez, Twenty Seventh Wisconsin. Communist
journalist Karl Heinzen wrote: “If you have to blow up half a continent and
cause a bloodbath to destroy the party of barbarism, you should have no
scruples of conscience. Anyone who would not joyously sacrifice his life for
the satisfaction of exterminating a million barbarians is not a true republican.”
Heinzen came to this country and supported Lincoln.

Joseph Weydemeyer had to flee Germany when the Communist Revolution failed. In
London he belonged to the Communist League and was a close friend of Marx and
Engels. He came to this country in 1851, supported Lincoln, maintained his
close friendship with Marx and became a Brigadier General in the Union Army.

Dedicated socialist Richard Hinton had to leave England. In this country he
became a Union colonel, a Radical Republican and an associate of maniac John
Brown’s. So was Allan Pinkerton, who financed him. At one meeting with Brown,
Pinkerton told his son: “Look well upon that man. He is greater than Napoleon
and just as great as George Washington.” Yes, Pinkerton was the great detective
who founded the agency that bears his name. Why didn’t you know that? In
Kansas, mass murderer Brown enjoyed the support of wealthy Yankees (the Secret
Six). August Bondi and Charles Kaiser, who worked with Brown there, were Forty
Eighters.

What about Marx himself? Marx fled to England, where he is buried. He became
the European correspondent for socialist Horace Greeley’s New York Tribune,
whose Managing Editor, Charles Dana, was a Communist. Dana hired Marx as a
foreign correspondent. Marx wrote often of his kinship with the new Republican
Party. Dana’s generosity to Marx kept that scumbag alive.

Remember that Marx never worked a day to support his family, but did find time
to impregnate their maid. Dana later became Assistant Secretary of War. All
these people were in place when our first Communist President was elected on
the Republican ticket in 1860 and provoked Lincoln’s Communist War to Destroy
the Union.

The GOP Convention of 1860 took place in Chicago, a flaming center of German
Communism. Many such Reds were delegates, including Johann Bernhard Stallo and
Frederick Hassaurek from Ohio and Heinrich Bornstein from Missouri, a friend of
Marx. Socialist Carl Schurz was a delegate from Wisconsin. To guarantee German
support in Illinois, Lincoln secretly bought the Illinois Staats Anzieger.
After the election he awarded the editor a consular post.

Socialist Friedrich Kapp was editor of the New Yorker-Abendzeitung. He wrote
propaganda for the new Republican Party and helped mightily to deliver the
German-American vote to Lincoln. With other Forty-Eighters, he was an elector
for Lincoln in 1860. Remember, these are just a few examples. You really need
to read the book. Call, toll-free 1 (800) 288-4677 to order.

Remember that slavery, for these Communists, was just an afterthought, a tool.
Before the War for Independence, it was the Southern colonies that petitioned
the King to stop importing slaves into the South. Did you know that Jefferson
tried to include in the Declaration of Independence a complaint against the King
because his government had forbidden the colonies to end the slave trade?
Jefferson’s language was deleted to avoid giving offense to New England, which
was making buckets of money trading slaves.

Indeed, did you also know that if slavery was what the South fought to defend,
all it had to do was stay in the Union? Lincoln made clear that he would defend
slavery and would not free slaves owned by a man in a state within the Union:
“I have no purpose, directly or indirectly, to interfere with the institution
of slavery in the States where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to
do so, and I have no inclination to do so.”

Remember that the Emancipation Proclamation came well into the war. It was a
propaganda stunt that freed only the slaves in areas controlled by the
Confederacy; in other words, none. Meanwhile, prominent abolitionist Robert E.
Lee, the first man Lincoln offered command of the Union Army, had freed his
family’s slaves long before the war. So, what were the Communists who came here
after?

Republican Senator John Sherman, brother of the monster who Marched to the Sea,
advised his fellow senators to “nationalize as much as possible [making] men
love their country before their states. All private interests, all local
interests, all banking interests, the interests of individuals, everything,
should be subordinate now to the interests of the Government.”

Germany was a decentralized collection of independent states. The goal of the
Forty Eighters there was a “united, indivisible republic” in which those states
would be dissolved. Land and private industry would be confiscated. The
government would be transformed into a Socialist dictatorship. These are the
ideas the Forty Eighters came to implement here. By the way, that is what
Hitler did in the 1930s. That is what the fleeing Communists found so
attractive in Lincoln.

So, again, the Republican Party did not “go wrong.” It was rotten from the
start. It has never been anything else but red. The characterization of
Republican states as “red states” is quite appropriate. What do these
revelations mean to us? Again, Dr. Paul is an aberration. He is not a
“traditional Republican.” A “traditional Republican” stands for high taxes,
imperial government and perpetual war. |

Dr. Paul is much more a traditional Democrat. I refer of course to the Democrat
Party before the Communist takeover, which began with the election of Woodrow
Federal Reserve-Income Tax-World War I Wilson and was consummated with the
election of liar, swindler, thief, traitor and mass murderer Franklin Delano
Roosevelt. I am talking about the Democrat Party of Thomas Jefferson.

So of course the Republican Party will do everything it can to sandbag Dr.
Paul. Expect that. It rightly considers him an interloper who doesn’t belong
there. Yes, because of decades of perversion of popular opinion about the
Republican Party, he must run as a Republican. But no patriot loyalty, and
certainly no trust, should be forthcoming, because the Party is a sidewinder
that will betray him in a Ghouliani minute.  

Dr. No is on one side. The Republicrat Party is one the other.

Gov. Beebe continues the legacy of Huckster….

February 1, 2008

 

Governor Mike Beebe (Tyson’s Birdman of Arkansas) is on the
move.   Two stories appearing today in
the Ark. Democrat-Gazette & the Fort Smith Times Record are indeed eye-openers.

Beebe has the word from the Arkansas insiders that it is
time to push for a severance tax increase.

Here is the Zinger. 
This zinger is absolutely on par with his reasons for not securing our
state borders preventing the illegal Mexican and OTM invasion…you know the one;
“legal is legal, illegal is illegal, and we’ve got to find what’s legal”.  Now to the latest zinger, he says, “Arkansas’
severance tax is so low, it’s unfair”, and the production companies should pay
more.  Followed by “I’d rather lose than
succumb to something that in effect, just isn’t fair”.  Unfair to whom?

Of course, this is exactly the non-logic you come to expect
from people who have been on the taxpayer teat their whole life.

More linguistic pearls. 
After my FOI of the state’s new airplane, a King Air, regarding logs,
travel, participants, and reasons for the use of said airplane, and pointing
out to the State Police if they did not comply to FARS 91 (a commercial
license) they would be in violation of Air Transportation laws. At this
juncture, the governor appears not to have used the King Air for personal use,
nor should he.

A financial report filed by Gov. Beebe shows the governor
received 4 free airplane flights in his first year as governor.  He never said what his extended trip to
Traverse City, Michigan in the new King Air was all about.   Back to the 4 trips…he flew to Washington on
a jet owned by Tom Schueck, owner of Lexicon, Inc., followed by a trip paid for
by the Ark. Democrat Party for a Democrat Governor’s Association Conference in
Phoenix, AZ.  As I recall the governor
was accompanied by his chicken shill Morill Harriman.   Alltel Corp. (a principal in the Fascist
organization “Arkansas Friendship Coalition”) paid for Beebe’s trip to
Arlington, VA. to salute the state’s congressional delegation.  (Who in their right mind would salute those
criminals? And what was the REAL reason?)

Now comes another example of the mindset of welfare
recipients, e.g. “free”.   The Univ. of Arkansas in Fayetteville flew the
Gov. to speak to the N.W. Arkansas’ Political Animals Club” as the 4th
trip.  The 4th trip entailed a
flight from Fayetteville, to Little Rock, to Fayetteville, to Little Rock, to
Fayetteville.  Economic accountability is
not a priority for criminal, parasitic bureaucrats and politicians.

Governor, who do you think owns the airplane that former
Chancellor John White was so willing to put into the air for your personal
use?  Is it not the same taxpayers who
own the State Police plane?

I will be FOIing on a regular basis for the logs of both
aircraft—the university and the state police, and the purpose of the flights,
passengers on board,  etc. to keep you “elitists”
in the public spotlight.

Gov. Beebe, I would again suggest you load up on Cessna 172’s
that are under state police control for your Arkansas “official” business
junkets.  You never need more than 2-3
aides to accompany, any more is fat baggage. 
And by the way, $100 per hour for a Cessna is substantially easier on us
taxpayers than $1,000 per hour for the King Air.

Kindest regards,

Ark. A.G. no reply to why the state issues forms for voting & driver’s licenses in Spanish when English is the state’ official language.

Attorney
General Dustin McDaniel,

 

Dustin,                                                             January
6, 2008  resubmit 1/31

The Arkansas
state government is turning out any number of documents, advertisements, etc.
in Spanish, most in violation of U.S. statutes and Arkansas law.   All for the benefit of the major crime
families in the state and lesser lights. I speak specifically of the Tyson’s,
George’s, Wenderoth, Simmons, etc.

As Attorney
General, you must be aware that we are a sanctuary state for
illegals—translation, a rogue state government.

I would like
for you to provide me the authority by which the state is printing and
distributing applications for voting rights printed in Spanish and directed to
the Secretary of State’s Office Voter Services.

Additionally,
the Arkansas State Police is distributing material regarding driver’s licenses
printed in Spanish. 

Since
becoming a naturalized citizen an individual must have some degree of fluency
in English: I can only conclude that you as the chief law enforcement  agent of the state are aware of what I perceive
to be criminal involvements with a host of Arkansas state entities. This
conduct only serves to increase the magnet for the illegal Mexican invasion,
particularly since Oklahoma & Tennessee have passed stringent illegal
immigration laws and Missouri is getting ready to do the same…all of which is
resulting in a tidal wave of illegals entering our state and we middleclass
citizens are bearing the burdens of their healthcare, education, housing,
pre-natal, welfare, ad infinitum.

I’m looking
forward to your opinion regarding the state’s providing voting rights and
driver’s licenses to illegals.

Kindest
regards,

Joe McCutchen

Huckabee newest scandal fundraiser

                         

 

BREAKING: Huckabee Scandal

by Bouldergeist

Wed Jan 30, 2008 at 05:25:53 AM PST

You
probably haven’t heard of the Dallas-based Trinity
Foundation
, but might be familiar with some of their work.  The Daily Show’s classic
God Stuff
segment with Joe Bob Briggs (a.k.a.,
John Bloom) was their brainchild.  They also publish the Wittenburg Door:
“pretty much the world’s only religious satire magazine.”  They
live in a kibbutz in one of the roughest neighborhoods in East Dallas,
routinely taking in the homeless.  But what they are most famous for is
their (often sub rosa) exposes of televangelists like Benny Hinn, Paul Crouch,
and the ubiquitous Kenneth Copeland.
Most of the hypocrisy they uncover is just plain funny, like the report in the
Los Angeles Times that TBN founder Paul Crouch was (allegedly) having sexual
relations with a former drug addict working at the station — who also happened to be
male
.  But occasionally, they come across a diamond in the rough.
 
Looks like they’ve got the Huckster in a bit of a bother….

This
story is just breaking, and could really use some legs.  (It’s a press
release by Ole and the guys, and intended for wide dissemination; I used to
help them out with investigations back in the day.)  The bottom line here
is that Charles Grassley is breathing down Copeland’s neck with his
investigation of televangelists who turn their ministries into ATM machines (on
a MUCH
lighter note, check out Robert
“Tootin'” Tilton
); the Huckster ran to Copeland for a little
cash, and he just happened to be in the market for a little protection.  

Republican
hopeful Mike Huckabee reached out to a questionable funding source this week.
 Texas televangelist Kenneth Copeland, one of the targets of a Senate
Finance Committee investigation into the funding and governance of
“prosperity gospel” ministries.
At Copeland€’s annual by-invitation-only Minister’s Conference at his Newark,
Texas, headquarters Jan. 23, Copeland received a call during the meeting from
Huckabee requesting emergency financing. According Doug Wead, former Bush
family evangelical adviser, Copeland and his supporters at the conference
raised $111,000 in cash for Huckabee, with about a million dollars in pledged
donations, after he temporarily adjourned the conference and then reconvened
the group as a “private meeting.”
Wead relayed a report in his blog from a source at the meeting that “Last
night [Jan. 23] the Governor called his friend in the middle of a conference
and Copeland, carefully observing all the laws governing non profits, as a
private citizen, re-convened a private meeting, turned to his friends and
raised a few million dollars for Huckabee.” (See “Mike
Huckabee’s Big Mistake
“)
According to video clips of the conference obtained by Trinity Foundation, an
investigative watchdog group in Dallas, Copeland revealed that Huckabee had
pledged his total support to Copeland’s ministry while dismissing the Senate
investigation.

Video
clips are here(the second clip is on Huckabee —
transcribed by them below).

“[Huckabee
told me] Why should I stand with them and not stand with you? They’ve only got
11 per cent approval rating.’ And then he said, ‘Kenneth Copeland, I will stand
with you.’ He said, ‘You’re trying to get prosperity to the people and they’re
trying to take it away from ’em.’ He said, ‘I will stand with you any time,
anywhere, on any issue.’ That settled that right there. I said, ‘Yeah, that’s
my man! That’s my man, right there.'”

The
Huckster’s association with Copeland might just put the final nail in the
coffin of his presidential aspirations.  Those who delight in oppo
research really ought to know.

 

Arvest Bank (Wal-Mart) gives mortgages for illegals to buy homes–illegal by Fed. Laws

Thanks to Sharon for this
one.  The Crime Families strike again,
this time the Walton’s (Wal-Mart).  There
is nothing they won’t do (e.g. Tyson’s, George’s, O.K. Foods, Simmons, et al.)
to make a buck and screw the taxpaying citizens…and they do it with the help of
scofflaw government agencies. 

It’s a good and rare thing
for officials to actually arrest and incarcerate illegal alien criminals but it’s
another to ignore other Federal immigration laws.  Please see below
our comments & the existing laws in red.

 

Check
yourself.  Find out how RARE mortgages are to people who had no Fed ID or
social security number that also have suspiciously Hispanic names.

And how
do you foreclose on a mortgage to an illegal who has no legal standing?

Or the
Contract for Deed where a straw buyer recontracts to illegals?

Mortgages for illegals to buy houses are OK but rare
in Arkansas

Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

Sunday,
January 27, 2008

— While Arturo Reyes Jr. sits in jail on
charges of harboring illegal aliens, his wife and co-defendant, Silvia, is
under federal detention at their home – a brick house with a soaring foyer and
a soccer goal in the yard.

There’s also
a hole dug for a backyard pool – a project that may have to wait.

The Reyeses’
plans were upended last month when immigration agents raided the family
business, Acambaro Mexican restaurants.

Prosecutors
are mounting a criminal case and are moving to seize the Reyeses’ home and
other properties they call the fruits of the illegal labor the Reyeses are
accused of using in their restaurants.

(Federal
Immigration and Nationality Act
Section 8 USC 1324(a)(1)(A)(iv)(b)(iii)

“Any
person who . . . encourages or induces an alien to . . . reside . . . knowing
or in reckless disregard of the fact that such . . . residence is . . . in
violation of law, shall be punished as provided . . . for each alien in respect
to whom such a violation occurs . . . fined under title 18 . . . imprisoned not
more than 5 years, or both.”

Section
274 felonies under the federal Immigration and Nationality Act, INA
274A(a)(1)(A):

A
person (including a group of persons, business, organization, or local
government) commits a federal felony when she or he:

*
assists an alien s/he should reasonably know is illegally in the U.S. or who
lacks employment authorization, by transporting, sheltering, or assisting him
or her to obtain employment, or

*
encourages that alien to remain in the U.S. by referring him or her to an
employer or by acting as employer or agent for an employer in any way, or

*
knowingly assists illegal aliens due to personal convictions.

Penalties
upon conviction include criminal fines, imprisonment, and forfeiture of
vehicles and real property used to commit the crime. Anyone employing or
contracting with an illegal alien without verifying his or her work
authorization status is guilty of a misdemeanor. Aliens and employers violating
immigration laws are subject to arrest, detention, and seizure of their
vehicles or property. In addition, individuals or entities who engage in
racketeering enterprises that commit (or conspire to commit)
immigration-related felonies are subject to private civil suits for treble
damages and injunctive relief.

Largely
overshadowed: the bank that holds the mortgages. Arvest Bank in Bentonville is
one of the few banks in Northwest Arkansas where an illegal alien can hope to
get a mortgage loan. (See statute above)

The Dec. 10
raid at Acambaro restaurants in Washington and Benton counties rounded up19
illegal aliens for deportation and landed the Reyeses and two Acambaro managers
in jail on charges that they knowingly hired illegal workers.

Recruitment
and Employment of Illegal Aliens

It
is unlawful to hire an alien, to recruit an alien, or to refer an alien for a
fee, knowing the alien is unauthorized to work in the United States. It is
equally unlawful to continue to employ an alien knowing that the alien is
unauthorized to work. Employers may give preference in recruitment and hiring
to a U.S. citizen over an alien with work authorization only where the U.S.
citizen is equally or better qualified. It is unlawful to hire an individual
for employment in the United States without complying with employment
eligibility verification requirements. Requirements include examination of
identity documents and completion of Form I-9 for every employee hired.
Employers must retain all I-9s, and, with three days’ advance notice, the forms
must be made available for inspection. Employment includes any service or labor
performed for any type of remuneration within the United States, with the
exception of sporadic domestic service by an individual in a private home. Day
laborers or other casual workers engaged in any compensated activity (with the
above exception) are employees for purposes of immigration law. An employer
includes an agent or anyone acting directly or indirectly in the interest of
the employer. For purposes of verfication of authorization to work, employer
also means an independent contractor, or a contractor other than the person
using the alien labor. The use of temporary or short-term contracts cannot be
used to circumvent the employment authorization verification requirements. If
employment is to be for less than the usual three days allowed for completing
the I-9 Form requirement, the form must be completed immediately at the time of
hire.

An
employer has constructive knowledge that an employee is an illegal unauthorized
worker if a reasonable person would infer it from the facts. Constructive
knowledge constituting a violation of federal law has been found where (1) the
I-9 employment eligibility form has not been properly completed, including supporting
documentation, (2) the employer has learned from other individuals, media
reports, or any source of information available to the employer that the alien
is unauthorized to work, or (3) the employer acts with reckless disregard for
the legal consequences of permitting a third party to provide or introduce an
illegal alien into the employer’s work force. Knowledge cannot be inferred
solely on the basis of an individual’s accent or foreign appearance.

Actual
specific knowledge is not required. For example, a newspaper article stating
that ballrooms depend on an illegal alien work force of dance hostesses was
held by the courts to be a reasonable ground for suspicion that unlawful
conduct had occurred.

IT
IS ILLEGAL FOR NONPROFIT OR RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS to knowingly assist an
employer to violate employment sanctions, REGARDLESS OF CLAIMS THAT THEIR
CONVICTIONS REQUIRE THEM TO ASSIST ALIENS. Harboring or aiding illegal aliens
is not protected by the First Amendment. It is a felony to establish a commercial
enterprise for the purpose of evading any provision of federal immigration law.
Violators may be fined or imprisoned for up to five years.

Arturo Reyes Jr. has
pleaded innocent to a three-count indictment alleging he harbored and shielded
illegal aliens by providing them with financial support through employment.
Reyes also is charged with money laundering. He is scheduled for trial Feb. 25
in U.S. District Court. Silvia Reyes has yet to be formally charged.

The family’s
$460,000 home in a gated neighborhood in Rogers stands as the most obvious
symbol of the wealth that prosecutors allege the Reyeses accumulated by
exploiting illegal workers.

The U.S.
attorney’s office in Fort Smith contends the Reyeses should forfeit the house,
the lot next door and nine other properties, including restaurants and a
warehouse, because “they were used in the commission of, or are properties
which were derived from and represent the proceeds of, the concealing or
harboring of an alien or aliens.”

While an
employer who hands an illegal immigrant a paycheck risks 10 years in prison and
the loss of his property for harboring an illegal alien, a bank that lends an
alien the money to buy a house and settle down in the country is well within
the law. (No, they are not).

Encouraging
and Harboring Illegal Aliens

It
is a violation of law for any person to conceal, harbor, or shield from
detection in any place, including any building or means of transportation, any
alien who is in the United States in violation of law. HARBORING MEANS ANY CONDUCT THAT TENDS TO SUBSTANTIALLY FACILITATE AN
ALIEN TO REMAIN IN THE U.S. ILLEGALLY
. The sheltering need not be
clandestine, and harboring covers aliens arrested outdoors, as well as in a
building. This provision includes harboring an alien who entered the U.S.
legally but has since lost his legal status.

An
employer can be convicted of the felony of harboring illegal aliens who are his
employees if he takes actions in reckless disregard of their illegal status,
such as ordering them to obtain false documents, altering records, obstructing
INS inspections, or taking other actions that facilitate the alien’s illegal
employment. Any person who within any 12-month period hires ten or more
individuals with actual knowledge that they are illegal aliens or unauthorized
workers is guilty of felony harboring. It is also a felony to encourage or
induce an alien to come to or reside in the U.S. knowing or recklessly
disregarding the fact that the alien’s entry or residence is in violation of
the law. This crime applies to any person, rather than just employers of
illegal aliens. Courts have ruled that “encouraging” includes
counseling illegal aliens to continue working in the U.S. or assisting them to
complete applications with false statements or obvious errors. The fact that
the alien is a refugee fleeing persecution is not a defense to this felony,
since U.S. law and the UN Protocol on Refugees both require that a refugee must
report to immigration authorities without delay upon entry to the U.S.

The
penalty for felony harboring is a fine and imprisonment for up to five years.
The penalty for felony alien smuggling is a fine and up to ten years’
imprisonment. Where the crime causes serious bodily injury or places the life
of any person in jeopardy, the penalty is a fine and up to twenty years’
imprisonment. If the criminal smuggling or harboring results in the death of
any person, the penalty can include life imprisonment. Convictions for aiding, abetting, or conspiracy to commit alien
smuggling or harboring,
carry the
same penalties
. Courts can impose consecutive prison sentences for each
alien smuggled or harbored. A court may order a convicted smuggler to pay
restitution if the alien smuggled qualifies as a victim under the Victim and
Witness Protection Act. Conspiracy to commit crimes of sheltering, harboring,
or employing illegal aliens is a separate federal offense punishable by a fine
of up to $10,000 or five years’ imprisonment.

Arvest lent
the Reyes family more than $2 million for houses and restaurant properties that
government prosecutors are now moving to seize, mortgages on file at the Benton
County Courthouse show.

In
each case, the bank made the loans to Arturo Jr. and Silvia Reyes, who
prosecutors have identified as illegal aliens, the documents show.
Nearly all of the
mortgages also name family patriarch Arturo Reyes Sr. and his wife, Serafina,
who are legal U.S. residents. The note for the vacant lot next door to the
Reyes house was signed by Arturo Jr. and Silvia alone.

Enforcement

A
person or entity having knowledge of a violation or potential violation of
employer sanctions provisions may submit a signed written complaint to the INS
office with jurisdiction over the business or residence of the potential
violator, whether an employer, employee, or agent. The complaint must include
the names and addresses of both the complainant and the violator, and detailed
factual allegations, including date, time, and place of the potential
violation, and the specific conduct alleged to be a violation of employer
sanctions. By regulation, the INS will only investigate third-party complaints
that have a reasonable probability of validity. Designated INS officers and
employees, and all other officers whose duty it is to enforce criminal laws,
may make an arrest for violation of smuggling or harboring illegal aliens.

State
and local law enforcement officials have the general power to investigate and
arrest violators of federal immigration statutes without prior INS knowledge or
approval, as long as they are authorized to do so by state law. There is no
extant federal limitation on this authority. The 1996 immigration control
legislation passed by Congress was intended to encourage states and local
agencies to participate in the process of enforcing federal immigration laws.
Immigration officers and local law enforcement officers may detain an
individual for a brief warrantless interrogation where circumstances create a
reasonable suspicion that the individual is illegally present in the U.S.
Specific facts constituting a reasonable suspicion include evasive, nervous, or
erratic behavior; dress or speech indicating foreign citizenship; and presence
in an area known to contain a concentration of illegal aliens. Hispanic
appearance alone is not sufficient. Immigration officers and police must have a
valid warrant or valid employer’s consent to enter workplaces or residences.
Any vehicle used to transport or harbor illegal aliens, or used as a
substantial part of an activity that encourages illegal aliens to come to or
reside in the U.S. may be seized by an immigration officer and is subject to
forfeiture. The forfeiture power covers any conveyances used within the U.S.

Tax
Crimes

Employers
who aid or abet the preparation of false tax returns by failing to pay income
or Social Security taxes for illegal alien employees, or who knowingly make
payments using false names or Social Security numbers, are subject to IRS
criminal and civil sanctions. U.S. nationals who have suffered intentional
discrimination because of citizenship or national origin by an employer with
more than three employees may file a complaint within 180 days of the
discriminatory act with the Special Counsel for Immigration-Related Unfair
Employment Practices, U.S. Department of Justice. In additon to the federal
statutes summarized, state laws and local ordinances controlling fair labor
practices, workers compensation, zoning, safe housing and rental property, nuisance,
licensing, street vending, and solicitations by contractors may also apply to
activities that involve illegal aliens.

Arvest is
one of a small number of banks that make mortgage loans to customers who don’t
have Social Security numbers and thus could be illegal aliens, according to an
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette survey of 26 banks in Washington and Benton counties.
The two counties are home to most of the state’s Hispanic immigrants.

Arvest
spokesman Jason Kincy declined to discuss the Reyes mortgages, saying he
couldn’t discuss a customer’s business.

But he said
mortgages extended to borrowers without Social Security numbers make up a “very
small” portion of Arvest’s mortgage portfolio and that the bank complies with
all federal rules on mortgages.

“We’re well
within the regulations to make those loans,” Kincy said. (Not so, see statutes above)

Of the 18
banks that responded to the newspaper’s survey, only Arvest and ANB Financial
in Rogers said they don’t automatically disqualify borrowers who cannot show a
valid visa or other proof of residency.

ITIN
MORTGAGES

Instead of
the usual Social Security numbers, banks may make the loans on the basis of an
Individual Taxpayer Identification Number. The Internal Revenue Service issues
the nine-digit taxprocessing number to individuals who don’t qualify for Social
Security numbers but earn income in the United States. It’s a way for the
federal government to collect taxes from them.

Some banks
make mortgage loans to customers with Individual Taxpayer Identification
Numbers, and some do not. In Northwest Arkansas, banks that make the loans take
various approaches.

“We do not
offer ITIN mortgages except in very, very rare cases,” said Terry Francisco, a
spokesman for Bank of America. “Let’s say someone is a French citizen and they
want to buy a second home in the U.S. We might consider that,” he said.

At Regions
Bank, Keith Smith said a borrower who can showlegal residency can get a
mortgage under a taxpayer-identification number. “As long as the consumer has a
work visa, which means, generally speaking, that they’re not going to have a
Social Security number, then we do have some ways. But you’ve got to show a
work visa.”

Most banks
surveyed said they do not make mortgage loans to customers without Social
Security numbers. A few, such as Priority Bank, said they haven’t adopted a
policy because no one has ever showed up wanting such a mortgage.

A handful of
banks didn’t return calls inquiring about their policies.

At First
Security, based in Searcy, vice president Kathryn Sims said the mortgage
department once made the loans but gave up because they weren’t worth the
trouble.

“We may have
made one or two, and then discovered just how much was involved with them,” she
said.

Such mortgages
make up a tiny share of the mortgage market, bankers and regulators say.

Banks
typically don’t promote the loans, which can be contentious.

Critics said
the mortgages encourage illegal immigration, and banks should stop making them.

“It’s been
illegal to hire undocumented workers in the U.S.,” said Bob Dane, spokesman for
the Federation for American Immigration Reform. “But under the current laws, it
is not illegal for a bank to provide a mortgage. But that doesn’t make it
right, and it doesn’t mean that the practice is helping us get illegal
immigration under control.”

At the
Center for Immigration Studies, which favors less immigration, spokesman Bryan
Griffith said the bank rules don’t square with the nation’s efforts to round up
and deport illegal immigrants and arrest employers.

“It’s a
mixed message,” he said. “Basically what the government says is, once you get
through the border control’s buffer, you are very unlikely to be caught. You
can get a job; you can get a bank account; you can get a mortgage and never be
caught.”

‘AN
OPTION’

Bankers and
bank regulators say it’s not their job to enforce immigration laws. (See the clearly written laws cited here)

Arvest,
owned by the Walton family of Bentonville, is only following a path that
federal banking laws and regulations plainly set out, Kincy said. He said the
bank’s policy is also in keeping with its efforts not to discriminate.

“We don’t
have an aggressive push to go after those loans,” he said. “But as customers
come to us, that’s an option we can provide.”

Arvest
requires that borrowers meet the requirements of IRS information-reporting
regulations, he said.

Asked if the
bank would make a mortgage loan to a borrower who openly disclosed he was an
illegal alien, Kincy said lending money to illegal aliens wasn’t the goal of
the bank.

Arvest’s
mortgage applications ask prospective borrowers to check “yes” or “no” if they
are a legal U.S. citizen or a permanent resident, he said.

He added,
however, that “loan requests may not be denied solely due to a person not being
a U.S. citizen or a resident alien.”

ANB
Financial, formerly known as Arkansas National Bank, has a similar approach.
The bank originates Individual Taxpayer Identification Number loans under a
program offered by Bank of Bartlett, a Memphis area bank that aggregates and
services such loans, said Mary Alice Granata, vice president of real-estate
operations for ANB.

She said ANB
follows the guidelines for the Bank of Bartlett’s program, which aims “to help
America’s immigrant and un-banked populations attain home-ownership.”

Under
“Eligible Borrowers,” the guidelines list only “nonpermanent resident aliens”
and “citizens and permanent residents” – people in the country legally. But the
guidelines add that “proof of legal residency is not required.”

Granata said
ANB has made only “three or four” mortgages under the program.

LOANS
ACCEPTABLE

Kevin Mukri,
spokesman for the Comptroller of the Currency, which regulates federal banks,
said they are well within their bounds to make mortgage loans to illegal
aliens.

“The bank
does not enforce immigration policy for the United States,” Mukri said.

Although the
USAPATRIOT Act requires banks to “know their customer” and verify IDs, it
specifically authorizes the use of either an Individual Taxpayer Identification
Number or a Social Security number, he said.

It’s wrong
to assume that everyone showing up for a loan without a Social Security number
is an illegal alien, he noted. “Some people for religious reasons won’t have a
Social Security number,” he said. “Some are on student visas.”

One reason
more banks don’t make mortgage loans to those without Social Security numbers
has nothing to with immigration. The loans aren’t easy to sell, said Anna
Paulson, a researcher in the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago’s Center for the
Study of Financial Access for Immigrants.

Fannie Mae
and Freddie Mac, government-sponsored companies that buy mortgages to help the
market work, won’t buy such mortgages, Paulson said.

At Legacy
National Bank, Ray Segura, vice president of lending, said he was discouraged
by the high interest rates typically charged to such borrowers.

“I don’t
believe in gouging people’s eyes out,” he said.

Segura said
his bank had an interest in making the loans but couldn’t find an investor to
buy them.

Arvest, the
state’s largest bank and No. 1 mortgage lender, keeps 98 percent of the
mortgages it makes, so it doesn’t face that obstacle.

No one
answered the door of the Reyes home on a recent afternoon, and an attempt to
secure an interview through an intermediary failed.

The mortgage
documents show that Arturo Reyes Sr., Serafina Reyes, Arturo Reyes Jr. and
Silvia Reyes took out a $418,500 15-year mortgage on their house in Rogers in
June 2006.

Arvest
charged an initial rate of 8 percent, well above the national average of 6.3
percent for 15-year fixed mortgages at the time, according to Freddie Mac.

After five
years, the rate was to reset to an adjustable rate floating above an index
based on U.S treasury prices. A cap set the maximum rate at 14 percent.

Big Questions about Lou Dobbs and his Independents



The following article concerning serious questions about Lou
Dobbs poses interesting doubts about what is going on with Lou.

·        
Here are some additional ones:

·        
He speaks a great deal about Independents, but
seldom mentions the Constitution, but much about government regulation…not
doing away with or limiting it, but how it should be done.

·        
What are the goals, plans, ethics, rules, etc.
of the Independents?

·        
As mentioned, Ron Paul is the only
Constitutionalist, but is completely ignored, in fact denigrated by statements
that there are NO candidates of fiscal responsibility, honesty, courage, or who
define “change”, which of course is quite deceiving.

·        
In reference to the Council on Foreign Relations
and neoconservative globalists….not only is Kitty Pilgrim one, but also David
Gergen, Jeffery Toobin, Bill Schneider. 
Also Bill Bennett, Donna Brazil, & numerous other
guests/commentators

·        
When the so-called “Independents” meeting was
held in OKC in early January, 2008 the list of organizers and attendees could
be anything except INDEPENDENT. 
Globalists all…consider, Sam Nunn, Charles Robb, David Boren, Gary Hart,
Chuck Hagel, John Danforth, Christine Todd Whitman, Michael Bloomberg….Constitutionalists/Independents?  Not in your wildest dreams.

·        
When the failed/sorry education system is
discussed the experts are usually the perpetrators and there is never a
discussion about the horrible curriculum or teaching methods or lack of
discipline…why?  Why has there never been
an expert who opposes the disastrous No Child Left Behind, such as EDWATCH.ORG?

·        
 The
question begs to be asked, are we being hoodwinked again, much as Newt
Gingrinch and his “Contract on America” did? 
Are they telling us what they know we desperately want to hear in order
to stay in power & control?

·        
Do these “INDEPENDENTS” wield even more power
and money than the 2-headed snake of the Democrat/Republican parties?

·        
Why is it Dobbs never mentions our Republic, but
we are always described as a Democracy…the worst nightmare of our Founders?

We only have this last chance to save our Republic and we
have only one Constitutional Candidate…the one who raises big bucks, wins the
debates, and is either ignored or vilified. 
This is no room for mistakes this time, even in the face of massive
voter fraud.

Some Questions About Lou Dobbs

 

Neal Ross

 

26 Jan. 2008


This is a touchy subject and I know I am going to upset a lot of people by what
I am about to say, but I feel obligated to say it. I only hope that instead of
people getting mad, they think about what I am going to say for themselves. If
they do and still find they disagree with me, fine, but at least think about it
first.

People talk about Hillary Clinton being a polarizing figure in politics. It
could be said that in the journalism business Lou Dobbs is just as polarizing.
He is outspoken and tackles issues that most of the other major networks either
refuse to discuss, or choose to ignore. In doing so he has developed quite a
devoted following. Mr. Dobbs has also made many people and groups angry,
particularly with his coverage of the illegal alien problem in America.

As I said his fan base is loyal, at times almost to the point of idol worship.
Witness some of the flattering e mails he reads on his show every evening.
Also, as an Independent voter he has attracted the attention of many as a
possible presidential candidate in opposition to the two mainstream political
parties. Americans for Legal Immigration PAC, ALIPAC, has said that 84% of its
25,000 supporters would vote for Dobbs if he chose to run for president as an
independent.

While I do think that Lou Dobbs is in fact covering certain issues that other
news organizations are not, issues that the majority of Americans are not aware
of, I have had some questions running around in the back of my mind for awhile
now, questions that I feel need to be asked.

Anyone who has watched Dobbs for any amount of time knows that he talks
extensively about our problem with illegal immigration, the war on the middle
class, the cost of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, (both in lives and
dollars), the problems with imported goods, (mainly from China), our
governments failure in numerous areas, and finally the attempts by the Council
on Foreign Relations to create a North American Union.

When I first started watching Lou Dobbs my first thought was, ‘Wow, I wonder
how this guy keeps his job at CNN when he is covering these issues.’ I admired
his courage, and CNN’s management for allowing him the forum to discuss these
issues. However, after awhile I began to notice a pattern that started to
bother me.

Almost immediately I began to notice that Mr. Dobbs was careful as to who he
blamed for the problems he spoke about. It is acceptable and commonplace to blame
the government for the problems a country faces and Mr. Dobbs is not lacking
when it comes to his disdain for the failures of our government in almost every
thing it does. Dobbs also places the blame on special interests who have a
stranglehold on the our elected representatives. He is often heard to mention
the socioethnic and corporate special interest groups that are pushing forward
numerous agendas and attempting to pass certain pieces of legislation.

A good example is when he talks about the proposed North American Union. While
the proposed North American Union, under the Security and Prosperity
Partnership, is a serious threat to our sovereignty and something the American
people need to become familiar with, Dobbs seems to fall short when it comes to
fully exposing who is behind this plan. He has been heard to say the CFR is
behind it, mentioning the CFR’s own document, ‘Building a North American
Community’, he has yet to tell us who the CFR is, and who its members are. I
find that interesting, especially since all he would have to do is ask one of
his reporters,Kitty Pilgrim, for answers to his concerns. On Kitty Pilgrim’s
bio page at CNN.com, it clearly states that in 2000 Ms. Pilgrim was elected to
the Council on Foreign Relations. http://edition.cnn.com/CNN/anchors_reporters/pilgrim.kitty.html

I am torn between admiration for Mr. Dobbs and the fact that he even mentioned
the CFR, and the lack of investigative reporting that could have been done in
exposing who are members of the CFR. The CFR has an extensive roster that
reaches into the very center of our nations capital, our justice system, and
our media itself. It is no wonder they are not spoken of by the news. That is
why I say I have to admire Mr. Dobbs for even mentioning them. However, if you
look at their roster you might be inclined to ask yourself why Mr. Dobbs has
not actually named names when he talks about his special interest groups. Look
for yourself and see just who is listed as a member of the CFR. http://www.apfn.org/apfn/cfr-members.htm
It is quite interesting that the CFR is not investigated further by Mr. Dobbs,
particularly in light of the fact that Vice President Cheney is a member, a
fact that he jokingly admits he withheld from people when he ran for office. http://myspacetv.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=5140898

Could it be that Mr. Dobbs is on a short leash by both his employers at CNN,
and the special interest groups themselves? If I can easily find these
references as to who is a member of the CFR you would think that Mr. Dobb’s staff
would also be able to uncover this same information for him to report on. Could
it be that Kitty Pilgrim is there to keep him in check in case he goes too far
in his coverage? Just something to think about when you give Mr. Dobbs kudos
for doing such a great job of exposing this threat to our nations sovereignty.

Another area where I have questions regarding Mr. Dobbs is in his understanding
of how our government is supposed to function according to the Constitution.
Dobbs is quite persistent in his criticisms of the president and his
administration in regards to almost every crisis this country faces. I have to
admit that Dobbs is equally as critical of our Congress when it comes to their
failure to protect the American people, but he is harshest when it comes to
criticizing President Bush.

To give you an example of what I am talking about, just the other evening
Senator Jeff Sessions was a guest on Lou’s show discussing illegal immigration.
Senator Sessions said we need to hear more details from our presidential
candidates about what they intend to do in regards to the problem of illegal
immigration. While I agree with Senator Sessions, and Lou Dobbs, that there is
in fact a serious problem that needs to be dealt with immediately, I disagree
with both these men on one issue.
It is the job of the president, and therefore any presidential candidates to
sign into law legislation and enforce it once it becomes law. It is the job of
Congress, both the Senate and the House to pass those pieces of legislation.
Therefore it is the job of the Congress to do something about immigration, not
the president. It would be well for us to know how the candidates stand on any
considered legislation, whether they would support or oppose any proposed steps
to end our problems with immigration. That would allow us to make a more
informed decision as to who would best represent the people.

You would think that Mr. Dobbs, and Senator Sessions would be aware of this
simple fact about how our government was supposed to function. I would hope
that all Mr. Dobbs was suggesting is that we find out exactly where our
presidential candidates stand in a bit more detail than the generalities we
have heard up to this point in the campaign.

While Mr. Dobbs expects our presidential candidates to be forthcoming with
specific details about how they would deal with the illegal immigration
problem, Dobbs himself has not been so forthcoming in his reporting on the
problems this countries economy is facing.

Mr. Dobbs does a very admirable job of reporting on the loss of jobs to foreign
workers, both imported and outsourced. Yet he fails to discuss the issue of
inflation in any great detail. According to the dictionary, inflation is
defined as an
abnormal increase in the volume of money and credit resulting in substantial
and continuing rise in the general price level.

Economics is a complicated and often boring subject that even I do not
understand fully. Yet I do understand a few basic things. Our countries
currency used to be backed by gold. As long as there was gold backing the paper
we could only print a finite amount of paper money because there was only a
finite amount of gold with which to back it. Since our government removed our
currency from the gold standard we have given the banks, particularly the
Federal Reserve Bank, the ability to print money at their whim that has no
backing whatsoever. While all paper currencies by their very nature are fiat
currencies, that is they are only paper currencies backed only by the authority
of the government, when you begin printing more and more paper that is backed
by the promise of the government, you end up with inflation, as per the
dictionaries definition.

It amazes me that Mr. Dobbs does not understand, and expose this problem to the
people of America. I find it amazing because prior to Lou Dobbs Tonight, his
show was entitled Lou Dobbs Moneyline. You would think that anyone who hosted a
show that covered financial matters would understand this basic principle,
especially so considering that Lou Dobbs graduated from Harvard with a degree
in economics.

Another concern with Mr. Dobbs is his sudden push to get people to change their
party affiliation to Independent. When talking about independents in America
one need only look at the long list of parties that are considered to be
independent for you to realize that they are fragmented and often disorganized.
There is the America First Party, the American Independent Party, the
Constitution Party, the Libertarian Party, the Peace and Freedom party. The
list goes on and on ad naseum.

While it is commendable that Mr. Dobbs would encourage voters to become more
active in their government, the simple truth of the matter is that for the
people of this country to register as independent is nothing more than a token
gesture to show our general lack of support for the current state of affairs in
government. With so many independent parties running around, not one of them
could field a candidate that stood any chance of winning, particularly at the
national level.

This ties in to my last concern with Mr. Dobbs, his refusal to talk about
candidate Ron Paul. Ron Paul is the closest thing our country has to a living
founding father. He more clearly than all the other candidates understands, and
legislates, strictly according to the Constitution. He understands more
thoroughly the economic problems our country faces. Yet Lou Dobbs refuses to
support him, instead he urges us to register as independent, which as I already
stated is nothing but a token gesture.

While I respect Lou Dobbs for the job he is doing, I think he falls short in
many instances. The issues which he covers, while at first may appear to be
groundbreaking, are in all truth subjects which a portion of the public were
already aware of. He seems to be holding back from going into greater detail as
to who is behind the curtains of the corporate and ethnocentric special
interest groups. He could very easily name names and make people aware of the
people who are causing this nation great harm. Yet you never hear him mention
people like the Bilderbergers, the Trilateral Commission, the Rockefellers and
the many other corporate and global interests that are planning and managing
the demise of America.

I know I may have upset many of you who think that Lou Dobbs walks on water. I
cannot deny that he has done an outstanding job of keeping the issue of illegal
immigration on the minds of his viewers. He has done more than anyone else in
the news media when it comes to standing up for Border Patrol Agents Ramos and
Compean. Yet I feel that there is more that he could be doing. It leaves me
wondering if he is allowed to spout off with just the right amount of righteous
indignation, but only up to a certain point. Is he kept on a very short leash
that gives his viewers the impression that he is more informed than the rest of
the media, when in fact he is in fact being himself controlled by those very
same special interest groups he rants about? I only ask that you examine these
questions with an open mind and not follow him blindly like the followers of
people like Rush Limbaugh, Bill O Reilly, and Sean Hannity. That is all I ask.
