7/8/2006 ADL Jews Defame Politician After Use Of The Word Holocaust WASHINGTON A Republican congressman from Iowa alleges that the Anti-Defamation League defamed him over claims that he compared illegal immigrants to Nazis. The ADL has been highly critical of a May 27 speech delivered by Rep. Steve King, an Iowa Republican, in which he argued that illegal immigrants have killed many more Americans since September 11, 2001, than were killed in the Al Qaeda attacks that day. King, who was speaking to a gathering of anti-immigration activists in Las Vegas, warned that we have a slow motion holocaust on our hands. In response, the ADLs director, Abraham ...
Immigration and Social Disintegration Post Date: 2006-07-08 13:11:23 by Tauzero

Immigration and Social Disintegration By Thomas E. Brewton To say that we're a nation of immigrants is not an argument for allowing Hispanics to impose their language and culture upon the United States. The message of this article is not that immigration is bad, but that immigration without assimilation linguistically and culturally is disastrous. Multi-cultural and PC education, along with the welfare state, could hardly have been designed more effectively (borrowing Walter Lippmann's phrase) to dissolve American society in the acids of modernity and immigration. If these remain in power and if immigration continues at the pace of recent years, the United States will ...

Fri Jul 7, 10:04 PM ET Two Latino radio hosts credited for mobilizing hundreds of thousands this year in pro-immigrant protests said on Friday they would join the drive to increase the Hispanic and immigrant vote in the 2008 U.S. presidential election. Los Angeles disc jockeys Piolin (Tweetybird) and El Cucuy (the Bogeyman) said they will work with the National Council of La Raza and other organizations to push Latino immigrants living in the United States to become U.S. citizens and register to vote in time to cast ballots in 2008. Immigration promises to be one of the big issues in the 2006 mid-term congressional elections and the 2008 presidential election as the future of some 12 ...

City's sanctuary status mocked Signs send illegals to Cambridge By Yvonne Abraham, Globe Staff | July 5, 2006 When Cambridge recently renewed its status as a sanctuary city for all immigrants, including undocumented ones, the news barely caused a stir around here. But the move has made the city a target for an immigration control group based in Washington , which is starting a national campaign urging undocumented immigrants to flood into the Massachusetts city. ProjectUSA is raising money to pay for a billboard in northern New Jersey that it hopes will be the first of many across the country. The proposed billboard would read: ``Attention: Illegal Aliens. Cambridge, Mass. is a ...
Unity, yes, but still no anthem Post Date: 2006-07-06 20:54:37 by Dakmar

It has all the makings of a reality TV show: The search for an artist with a homegrown song that can best serve as the anthem of the immigrant rights movement in Los Angeles. At least one number is being professionally produced with an ensemble of popular Mexican artists in the mold of "We Are the World," the all-star charity tune from the 1980s. But many more songs are sprouting spontaneously from amateur singers and songwriters within Southern California's Mexican community, inspired by recent protests against a proposed crackdown on immigrants without papers. Unsolicited cassettes, CDs and even DVDs have arrived by the dozens at the offices of Los Tigres del Norte, the famed ...
How Eisenhower solved illegal border crossings from Mexico Post Date: 2006-07-06 20:35:46 by Indrid Cold

WASHINGTON - George W. Bush isn't the first Republican president to face a full-blown immigration crisis on the US-Mexican border. Fifty-three years ago, when newly elected Dwight Eisenhower moved into the White House, America's southern frontier was as porous as a spaghetti sieve. As many as 3 million illegal migrants had walked and waded northward over a period of several years for jobs in California, Arizona, Texas, and points beyond. President Eisenhower cut off this illegal traffic. He did it quickly and decisively with only 1,075 United States Border Patrol agents less than one-tenth of today's force. The operation is still highly praised among veterans of the Border Patrol. ...

WASHINGTON From Vermont to California and a host of unlikely places in between, many Republicans say they are convinced that tough immigration positions are what voters want to hear ahead of the November election, and, in fact, immigration could be the biggest issue of the year. "I honestly don't know a district where this is not an important issue, maybe the top issue or at least in the top three," said Richard Engle, spokesman for the National Federation of Republican Assemblies. "I happen to live in a nearby (congressional) district where there is an open seat, and every candidate is jumping over themselves to get in on this issue." Senate Republicans are ...
NYC MAYOR CALLED 'BLOOMING IDIOT' FOR SUPPORTING ILLEGAL ALIENS Post Date: 2006-07-06 11:59:37 by rowdee

http://(CNSNews.com) - New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is "a blooming idiot" for giving testimony on Wednesday that supports illegal aliens while attacking the rights of American gun owners, a pro-gun group has charged. During testimony before the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee at a hearing held in Philadelphia, Bloomberg said: "Although they broke the law by illegally crossing our borders ... our city's economy would be a shell of itself had they not, and it would collapse if they were deported. The same holds true for the nation." That comment drew the ire of the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA), which accused the mayor of being ...
Specter, Kennedy Say They're Open to Immigration Compromise Post Date: 2006-07-06 11:20:51 by Brian S

July 6 (Bloomberg) -- Two key supporters of a Senate immigration measure calling for guest-worker and legalization programs said they would consider linking those provisions to toughened border security to help break a legislative deadlock. Senators Arlen Specter, a Pennsylvania Republican who heads the Judiciary Committee, and Edward Kennedy, a Massachusetts Democrat, indicated interest in a compromise that would delay the Senate programs until House demands for improved border security are met. ``There's certainly the recognition that some of this is going to take longer than others,'' Kennedy said yesterday after a hearing on the Senate immigration measure in Philadelphia. ``The other ...

Status hurts Mexican voting bloc in U.S. Post Date: 2006-07-02 22:43:44 by Zipporah

LOS ANGELES - A potentially powerful expatriate voting bloc likely will have little effect on Mexico's presidential race because of the illegal status of many who live in the United States. Thousands of Mexican expatriates streamed into border towns Sunday to vote in their homeland's elections and others were allowed to cast absentee ballots for the first time. Still, many more were disenfranchised by their fear of crossing the border as undocumented residents. "I really wanted to vote, but I don't have papers so I couldn't go to Mexico" to get a voter card, said Adriana Lopez, 27, a housewife and illegal immigrant in Orange County, south of Los Angeles. Still, others ...

GROESBECK, Texas A Central Texas woman was recuperating at a Temple hospital after she reported being run off a rural road, kidnapped and then raped and beaten by her abductors, authorities said. The 18-year-old woman was in stable condition Thursday following surgery. She had walked and crawled a half-mile to find help after her abductors left her for dead along a highway early Wednesday morning, authorities said. "She spent more than two hours in hell," Limestone County Sheriff Dennis Wilson said.

Razablanca By Julia Gorin http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | The Hispanic-supremacist group La Raza, or "The Race," has been making more and more headlines with the advent this year of pro-illegal-immigrant rallies. Among the chants that can be heard as people march for lawlessness is "La Raza unida nunca sera vencida!" or "A united [Hispanic] race will never be defeated!" The Race openly declares its intentions to "reconquer" the American Southwest, demands that illegals be allowed to get drivers' licenses and free in-state tuition and health care, that state agencies and ballots be bilingual, and that the post-9/11 immigration laws be rolled back ...

Youths Kick Man to Death on Crowded Antwerp Bus From the desk of Paul Belien on Mon, 2006-06-26 21:38 The Belgian state is no longer able to guarantee the security of its citizens. On Saturday afternoon Guido Demoor, a 54-year old Flemish train conductor on his way to work, was kicked to death by six youths on a crowded bus near Antwerps Central Station. The incident recalls the rush-hour murder ten weeks ago of Joe Van Holsbeeck, 17 years of age, in a crowded Brussels Central Station on 12 April. Guido Demoor, a father of two, intervened when six youths got on bus 23 in Antwerp and began to intimidate passengers. There were some forty people on ...

Rep. (Ted Poe TV) says illegal immigration slowing on fears of rape, robbery by Guard Post Date: 2006-06-27 19:40:40 by Zipporah

A Congressman took to the House floor yesterday insisting that illegal border crossings from Mexico have slowed due to fear of rape, robbery and beatings at the hands of U.S. National Guardsmen, RAW STORY has learned. Representative Ted Poe (R-TX) began his one-minute statement by characterizing the US-Mexican border as a war zone. "Mister Speaker," he began, "news from the front: The border war continues. Generalissimo Fox and the Mexican media have taken a setback in the illegal invasion of the United States." The deployment of the US national Guard to the Mexican border, according to Poe's statements to the House, was actually little more than "a publicity ...
American Workers May Be Rejecting Low-End Jobs as Immigrants Depress Wage Post Date: 2006-06-26 12:59:02 by Brian S

June 26 (Bloomberg) -- President George W. Bush, addressing the nation on his immigration-overhaul plan last month, declared that granting temporary visas to immigrants would merely give them a chance at ``jobs Americans are not doing.'' A growing number of economists challenge the contention that Americans aren't willing to take on those low-end jobs; it's kitchen-table economics, not the sweat factor, that keeps them away. These economists' studies indicate many Americans want those jobs -- they just can't afford to take them because of declining pay and benefits. And they say the influx of immigrants has helped drive down compensation in occupations such as the needle trades, ...

WASHINGTON - The U.S. population is on target to hit 300 million this fall and it's a good bet the milestone baby or immigrant will be Hispanic. No one will know for sure because the date and time will be just an estimate. But Latinos immigrants and those born in this country are driving the population growth. They accounted for almost half the increase last year, more than any other ethnic or racial group. White non-Hispanics, who make up about two-thirds of the population, accounted for less than one-fifth of the increase. Phil Shawe sees the impact at his company, http://Translations.com.

General Motors will on Monday disclose details of one of most dramatic corporate downsizings in US history, exceeding a key target of its turnround plan and accelerating the demise of the privileged American car worker. Rick Wagoner, chief executive, is expected to announce that about 30,000 workers more than a quarter of GM's blue-collar US workforce have taken up its offer of early retirement and severance packages. Almost all will leave by the end of the year, achieving in a few months what the company had set out to accomplish over more than two years. A total of 50,000 workers or more is set to leave the industry over the next few months. Later this week, Delphi ...
