NYTimes: Cain Proposes Electrified Border Fence (WOW!!)

Posted on by Administrator

By EDWARD WYATT

Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain said Saturday that part of his immigration policy would be to build an electrified fence on the country’s border with Mexico that could kill people trying to enter the country illegally.

The remarks, which came at two campaign rallies in Tennessee as part of a barnstorming bus tour across the state, drew loud cheers from crowds of several hundred people at each rally. At the second stop, in Harriman, Tenn., Mr. Cain added that he also would consider using military troops “with real guns and real bullets” on the border to stop illegal immigration.

The remarks were among the most pointed yet by Mr. Cain about illegal immigration, and they come as he is enjoying a surge in national political polls on the back of his victory in a recent Florida straw poll. They also follow on remarks made by Representative Michele Bachmann on Saturday during a speech on illegal immigration in Iowa, in which she also advocated a border fence.

I am prepared for the hate mail!!  I will preface that by saying that I believe that our borders should be sealed, those here illegally should be sent home with a few exceptions, and there should be no such thing as “anchor babies.”  I will also say that I believe all American citizens who want an education should be accommodated before we provide tax dollars for those here illegally.

All of that being said, our current policies and attitudes towards undocumented residents, especially in the areas of health care and education, are going to do nothing but lead to further decay of our country.  We are shooting ourselves in the foot; cutting off our nose to spite our face; bringing about our own destruction.

Let us be very clear.  Sam Berdoo attacked no one, is not angry, and holds no grudge.  All Sam did was post the articles and comments of other people.  This is a common practice on ie.politics and one I hope will continue.  No where can it be pointed out, that Sam Berdoo wrote any thing disparaging about Derry or the others.  All Sam has done is remind the populous about the relationships that exist within the all pervasive culture of corruption.

“I consider accusations of bigotry and racism to be complimentary. And while I don’t thirst for confrontation, I dont [sic] fear it.” “Our enemies are bloodied and beaten. We cannot relent. Our boot is on their throat and we must have the willingness to crush their “throat” so that we can put our enemy down for good.” -Samples of previous postings by Joseph Turner from his Save Our State website.

Over the previous two weeks, The Alpenhorn News has reported in detail on Neil Derry’s questionable choices related to some individuals selected to fill key positions on his staff. The series began with an exclusive report on the criminal ebackground history of his Administrative Analyst Wanda Nowicki. Next, the paper examined the polarizing and controversial history of his ex Chief of Staff, Jim Erwin, that culminated with his 2009 arrest at Derry’s office on felony charges related to the $102 million Colonies Scandal.

California Congressman Gary Miller (R-Diamond Bar) has introduced legislation to end birthright citizenship for children born to illegal immigrants.  Miller claims that the US government is put in a difficult position when it attempts to deport illegals who have under aged children who are citizens.

Opponents to the measure, such as Congressman Joe Baca (D-Rialto), claim the measure violates the 14th Amendment, which was one of three Reconstruction Amendments passed after the Civil War to outlaw slavery and grant equal rights to all males including slaves and their descendants.  Miller disagrees with this contention.

If you still have a job, it is life as usual, but for the unemployed;  it is depression.  While, the EDD has reported 9% – 9.7%  unemployment in account for those who signed up for benefits, the Self-employed, have not had that opportunity, yet, they still paid taxes. 

Fox News has reported Commercial Real Estate at an all time low, with 40% across the nation in Bankruptcy or buildings for sale.  Does that mean, people who were Self-employed occupied those offices.  Absolutely!  Continue reading →

Republicans lose races when we nominate flawed candidates.

In 1998, we nominated Dan Lungren for Governor. The NRA and those supporting the Second Amendment so disliked him, they supported Gray Davis–and Lungren lost by 20 points.

In the 2006 GOP primary, Senator Abel Maldonado was the favorite to win the nomination for State Controller. But, due to his support of tax increases, big government, weak votes on the “life” issue, he lost. His legislative record, even then, was so poor that Assemblyman Tony Strickland was able to easily defeat him. Continue reading →

iePolitics: Theodore Roosevelt’s Ideas on Immigrants

Theodore Roosevelt’s ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907.

“In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American . . . There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag . . . We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language.  And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”

—Theodore Roosevelt 1907

Mike Morrell: The Pathway to Citizenship

Mike Morrell is a businessman from Southern California.  He has been married to Joanie for 31 years and together they have three children.  He is an alternate on the San Bernardino County Republican Central Committee.  He is a candidate for the 63rd Assembly District.  His website can be found at:   www.morrellforassembly.com

We hear today that the United States houses between fifteen and twenty-five million illegal immigrants.  An estimated 32 percent of these individuals live in California, as our state offers assistance up to $11.2 billion annually.  In light of the staggering fiscal and social problems inherent in these figures, what position should we Republicans take?

Certainly, we recall that ours is a nation of immigrants.  From the Eastern seaboard Lady Liberty calls, “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.”  Truly, America is unlike any other nation, with neither racial nor ancestral borders to define us.  Yet our founders determined a set of immovable principles, both political and moral, and these became the “ties that bind.”  These principles found clear expression in our early writings.
