Even More Reasons Arizona’s New Law Rocks
It's not rocket science gang. You make it tough on the employers who hire illegal immigrants and they will move. Check these pulls from this article:
- Many day laborers like Diaz say they will leave Arizona because of the law, which also makes it a crime to be in the U.S. illegally...
- Diaz, 35, says he may follow three families in his neighborhood who moved to New Mexico because of the law.
- Jose Armenta, a 33-year-old illegal immigrant from Mexico's western coast, is already planning to move to Utah within the next 20 days because of a combination of the economy and the new law.
- Oh yeah, and one more reason worth mentioning again... The One can't stand it.
I've never heard this term before but I like it:
Owners of shopping centers, car lots, banks, money wiring services, and even the Mexican Consulate in Phoenix, are witnessing the rise of "self-deportations,"
Self-deportations... sounds like success to me. You go Arizona!
Why We Need More States To Step Up And Do What Arizona Has Done

If anyone has any doubt why Arizona needs to be the model of immigration reform on a state level just read this from Reuters:
"Since the law says that people hiring undocumented day laborers will get fined, no-one wants to (hire) us," said Aguilar, who early on Monday was among some two dozen migrants touting for landscaping and building work at a day labor site in north Phoenix.
"We are thinking of going to Utah or New Mexico ... Here it is just too racist," he added.
This is awesome! Aguilar's response is priceless. He is an illegal immigrant giving a first hand account of the effects of fining the crap out of any business who hires illegal immigrants. They don't. Farther down in the article you will see an even greater reaction. They will go somewhere else. Hopefully home and then come back legally... we would love to have them back here under those circumstances. I hope more states will follow Arizona's lead and craft their own similar legislation.
Even more good news is that it upset our "Dear Leader".
Obama Lies… Freedom Dies
The lies coming from the Whitehouse concerning health care reform continue. The media (main stream type), doesn't call him on them and your freedom to choose how you handle your relationship with your doctor is getting closer and closer to being taken away from you.
Controlling your health care will give the federal government unprecedented control over your personal life. The second the government can dictate whether or not you can get the treatment you need to live based on a cost benefit analysis you are no longer in control of your life. You will be a slave to the federal government for as long as they decide it's affordable to provide you the care you need to live. The One knows that this bill is just the first step and as soon as they control access they will be able to dictate whatever behavior of yours they consider relevant to your health... since they are now the ones providing your health care.
Our Socialist in Chief has chosen to lie about these bills from the beginning. Here's just a few examples:
Your premiums will go down by double digits. - The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has determined that your premiums will go up not down.
The deficit will be lowered. - "When government outlays and revenue collection are considered together in a 10-year period, Medicare cuts are not double-counted, and the “doc fix” is included, the bill will substantially increase the deficit, with an overall cost of approximately $2.3 trillion."
You can keep your coverage if you want. - CBO estimates up to 10 million Americans would no longer be covered by their employers.
No funding for abortion. - The Senate bill will provide funding for abortion. Unlike the House the Senate didn't even vote for an amendment to stop it.
No reduction in access to medicare. - The bill would reduce Medicare payments by an estimated 3 billion over 10 years, including payment reductions for Medicare Advantage, hospital care, home health care, and nursing homes. Common sense tells you that can't happen without reducing seniors access to their medicare benefits.
No "death panels". - Call them what you like, these are still going to be the government bureaucrats who decide on how to control costs and who can get what treatment. Seems like a recipe for a "death panel" to me. When you don't have the freedom to make your own life and death decisions what freedom do you have?
A vote against this bill is a vote for the status quo. - Patently false. A vote against this bill is a vote against this piece of crap bill... nothing more nothing less. A vote against this bill is a vote for personal freedom and against a government takeover of nearly 18% of our economy. A vote against this bill is a vote that will give us all a chance to consider a common sense free market approach to solving this issue.
These health care reform bills have absolutely nothing to do with health care reform and everything to do with the taking of your freedom. They are all about an already out of control government grabbing more and more power for itself and assuming for itself the power to make personal life and death decisions for you. If like me you find this totally against the principles this country was founded upon... an affront to the founders, the constitution, and your unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness then LET THEM KNOW NOW!
Insurance Companies Are Not the Devil
The One enjoys making the insurance companies out to be the devil incarnate. Out to gouge the unsuspecting public and make totally obscene profits. The facts beg to differ. Here is another little video by me that points that out.
Here is the link to the National Review Online research.
The Slaughter Solution… How To Pass a Bill Without Even Voting On it.
Here's a little video I made explaining the sliminess of the Democrat controlled congress. Short, sweet, and to the point.
They have gone from not reading the bills they vote on to pretending to vote on bills they haven't read.
We can still stop them. Call, fax and email your Representative today.
Awesome Video —> “Too Late To Apologize: A Declaration”
Found this video over at Hotair.com. Soomo Publishing has called it exactly right as far as I'm concerned. It is definitely too late to apologize. We need to purge Washington D.C. in November 2010 and again in November 2012. Reset and restore:)
SEIU’s Andy Stern Seems A Little Uninformed
The president of the SEIU Andy Stern, The One's most frequent white house visitor, has a real bad grasp on basic math. He seems to believe that the republicans have stood in the way of passing health care reform. I'm not sure, but the democrats have 60 votes in the senate and more than enough in the house to pass anything they want. The republicans have no power to stop them... none.
The democrat failure to take over the health care system is entirely their own problem. Andy needs to do a little soul searching and come to terms with his buddy Obama's crew. They are the problem not the republicans. Quit whining Andy.
Senator Jim Webb Calls For Halt In Health Care Vote
From The Politico:
In many ways the campaign in Massachusetts became a referendum not only on health care reform but also on the openness and integrity of our government process. It is vital that we restore the respect of the American people in our system of government and in our leaders. To that end, I believe it would only be fair and prudent that we suspend further votes on health care legislation until Senator-elect Brown is seated.
This statement from Webb is good for the current situation, but the fact that he knows that it was indeed a referendum on openness and integrity in government and restoring the respect of the American people in our government and leaders says volumes. It says that he didn't have a problem with all the shady deals, bribes and back door deals until now. Now that he knows his political future is in jeopardy. Too late Jim.
Celebration… A Scott Heard ‘Round the World and A Little Humpbot!
You go Massachusetts! Congratulations to Scott Brown new occupier of "the people's seat". Thank you to the people of Massachusetts , 'nuff said. Now for a little humpbot courtesy of our friends over at Hotair.com.
The Senate’s Health Care Reform… I Mean Takeover. The Facts – Part 5
This is more of a rant than anything else but it does bring out a few facts on how The One has managed to get this health care reform debacle this far... here goes.
If this health care reform bill is so awesome why are The One and his statist allies having to to pit one group against another to get it passed? Why do 48 other states taxpayers have to pay for deals made with Nebraska and Louisiana? Why do nearly 88% of employees in this country have to subsidize around 12%? Because the 12% are unions and they strong armed Mr. Hopenchange himself into screwing the vast majority of hard working Americans and doing it with a smile on his face.Check out this post from Dr. Zero.
This administration has made deals behind closed doors with no press or coverage of any kind. They have bought votes. Not just made deals based on principles or ideals, but down in the gutter, dirty, sleazy big money changing hands kinds of deals. They have made deals not with their money, but with ours. The Obamessiah, Pelosi, and Reid made these deals behind closed doors but they did it in front of everybody. They do not care that we don't want this and they don't care that we know they are making deals with our money without our consent. Who the hell do they think they are? I'll tell you. They think they are invincible, all knowing, and right now they think they are all powerful. They are wrong.
Hopefully Scott Brown will remind them of that fact tomorrow. We will remind them in a big way in November!
