McCain & Hayworth on Birthright Citizenship Phoenix, AZ (AUGUST 17) - U.S. Senate Candidate J.D. Hayworth (R-AZ) released a new web-video juxtaposing Hayworth's position on "birthright citizenship" and McCain's. The video highlights that while McCain believes children born by non-citizens on U.S. soil "clearly" should be granted citizenship, Hayworth believes that is in direct conflict with the original intent of the authors of the 14th Amendment.

Federal prosecutions in Arizona have soared dramatically Posted: Wednesday, August 18, 2010 5:00 pm | Updated: 7:21 pm, Wed Aug 18, 2010. Howard Fischer, Capitol Media Services Nearly one out of every five cases being brought by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the whole country are filed in Arizona, according to a new report. The Transactional Research Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University found there were 20,818 prosecutions in the first eight months of the current fiscal year. That compares with 109,532 for the entire country. By contrast, Arizona represents just 2 percent of the national population. Not surprisingly, more than four out of every five are related to ...

Opponents rally against Ford for comments on immigration (Toronto, Canada)

Toronto’s major mayoral candidates piled on frontrunner Rob Ford Wednesday, excoriating him for suggesting that in “a perfect world” Toronto would shut the door to newcomers. The Etobicoke Councillor first made the comments during a televised debate Tuesday night, saying: “We can’t even deal with the 2.5 million people in this city. I think it’s more important that we take care of the people now before we start bringing in more.” After a morning in which George Smitherman, Rocco Rossi, Joe Pantalone and Sarah Thomson all flocked to city hall to denounce Mr. Ford, the candidate told reporters he stands by his comments. “It’s political games, ...

$45 BILLION ANNUALY - Educating illegal immigrants is costly

"Therefore, if one multiplies $12,028 by the roughly 3.7 million students with illegal-immigrant parents, then one gets a national total funding cost of $44.5 billion. Educating illegal immigrants is costly As the debate on illegal immigration rages in Washington and state capitals, it’s troubling to see both sides rely on emotional rhetoric to the detriment of facts. The impact of illegal immigration on public education is a case in point. No one can deny that increasing numbers of children of illegal immigrants attend public schools in the United States and that U.S. taxpayers pay the costs. Those sympathetic to illegal immigration tend to remain silent about these costs, ...

Sarkozy’s Right-Wing Rubicon

Sarkozy’s Right-Wing Rubicon In his effort to exploit public fears, the French president is courting extremists. Karim Boudouda was an authentic bad guy, no doubt about it. He’d piled up a stack of convictions for armed robbery in his 27 years, and when he held up a casino in the little French town of Uriage-les-Bains last month, he was armed to the teeth with an Uzi submachine gun and a Swiss-made assault rifle. Fleeing the police, the Algerian-born French citizen headed for his home turf in a dilapidated housing project filled with immigrants on the outskirts of Grenoble. In the shootout that followed, Boudouda died with a bullet in his head. For three nights the neighborhood ...

New Mexico, Utah and Washington becoming havens for illegal aliensAugust 18th, 2010 12:30 am Licenses being granted to illegal aliens in record numbers Photo: Getty Images In the wake of Arizona’s passage of SB1070, illegal aliens have been flocking to the states of New Mexico, Utah and Washington, as evidenced by the number of driver’s licenses being issued to them in each of those states. Incredibly, none of three states require proof of citizenship to obtain a license. New Mexico has gone even further and has a law banning DMV clerks from asking an applicant if they are in the country legally. Brian Zimmer, president of the Coalition for a Secure Driver’s ...

LYING AGAIN - McCain: 'I have not changed in my positions'

McCain: 'I have not changed in my positions' QUEEN CREEK, ARIZ. — It's dark, but still an oppressive 102 degrees, when Sen. John McCain agrees to talk to me in a parking lot next to his campaign SUV (flex-fuel and energy efficient, I'm assured). It's revved and running, no doubt for the air- conditioned comfort of those inside, but perhaps also for a quick getaway if needed. I have a feeling our time will be short, so I plunge quickly into questions about the upcoming Aug. 24 Republican Senate primary . "Why are you spending so much money?" I ask ( nearly $20 million so far against former congressman J.D. Hayworth, who has been in the 30s or lower in ...

US Farmers Depend on Illegal Immigrants Undocumented workers do the jobs Americans don't want Photo: VOA - M. Cornely Most of the one million farm workers in America are immigrants, up to a half are thought to be in the United States illegally. As summer fruits and vegetables ripen across U.S. farmland, the work of harvesting them depends on illegal immigrants. Americans are sharply divided over what to do about illegal immigration in the United States. Conservatives have been harshly critical of the Obama administration for blocking a controversial Arizona law intended to identify and deport more illegal immigrants, who critics say are taking American jobs. But farmers across the ...

Obama’s aunt was ruled at risk Disclosure of case made US asylum vital, judge said A federal official disclosed information about Zeituni Onyango, President Obama’s aunt, to the media. The immigration judge who granted President Obama’s aunt asylum three months ago based his decision on the fact that an anonymous federal official had disclosed information about her immigration status to the media, a “reckless’’ act that exposed her to heightened threats of persecution in her native Kenya, according to the ruling, obtained yesterday by the Globe. Although the grant of asylum to Zeituni Onyango in May was made public, the written decision detailing the reason ...

Terence P. Jeffrey, Cybercast News Service, August 16, 2010 Sheriff Larry Dever of Cochise County, Ariz., one of four Arizona counties contiguous with the U.S-Mexico border, said Friday that the U.S. Border Patrol has pulled back from parts of the border in his and neighboring counties because manning those areas has become too dangerous. “And you frankly have Border Patrolmen—and I know this from talking to Border Patrol agents—who will not allow their agents to work on the border because it is too dangerous,” Dever told CNSNews.com in a videotaped interview. “Now what kind of message is that for crying out loud?” {snip} Dever stressed that the Border ...

Arizona's illegal immigrants can easily avoid E-verify system by Jahna Berry - Aug. 17, 2010 12:00 AM The Arizona Republic Companies have opportunities to make sure they aren't hiring illegal immigrants. Prospective hires must show proper identification, and they must submit U.S. government-required paperwork. Under Arizona law, new hires must be vetted by E-Verify, a federal system designed to catch illegal-immigrant workers. But there are many ways for unauthorized workers to slip through the cracks. It's not hard, experts say, for an illegal immigrant with high-quality fake identification to collect a paycheck. An undocumented worker could remain on a company's ...

Order out of chaos: Why desperate patriots were duped about Arizona's SB 1070 from the start

Americans have been fed up with illegal immigration for so long that they are willing to accept almost any solution that is offered to purportedly stop the problem. A typical example of this was the REAL ID act, which was supported by many, but not all, immigration activists a few years ago. Discerning people realized the privacy violations and innapropriate federal government involvement in drivers licenses would not fix the immigration problem. Similarly, Arizona's SB 1070 had been championed by sovereignty advocates as some magic fix-all to the illegal immigration problem. A federal judge in Arizona blocked the main provisions of the law last month, resulting in praise by some and ...

The Southern Poverty Law Center today filed a federal lawsuit against Mississippi authorities who took a newborn baby from a Mexican immigrant mother and placed the child for the child’s first year with a white couple. The lawsuit names as defendants the state Department of Human Services, the Singing River Health System in Pascagoula, DHS employee Vicki Hayes, DHS supervisor Ralph "Matt" Mathews and Singing River Hospital employee Abigail Medina. The lawsuit also has appealed an earlier gag order that prohibited the mother and her attorneys from speaking publicly about her family's ordeal despite the mother's request to waive confidentiality rules of the Youth ...

Now the truth comes out: McCain tried to blackmail Hayworth into supporting amnesty Phoenix, AZ (AUGUST 9) – Sen. John McCain tried to blackmail then-Congressman J.D. Hayworth in 2005 into supporting his illegal alien amnesty legislation, by threatening to raise unfounded allegations of a relationship between the Congressman and lobbyist Jack Abramoff, records show. “FYI: We’ve been inundated with press requests to comment on your boss’s abrahamoff [sic], sky box, etc. situation. We’ve refused them. I think you should be prepared for that to change,” wrote McCain’s chief of staff and confidant Mark Salter to a Hayworth aide on May 12, 2005 at 6:19 p.m. ...

Report: 1 in 15 kids in U.S. has illegal immigrant parent Posted: Wednesday, August 11, 2010 12:52 pm | Updated: 5:47 pm, Wed Aug 11, 2010. Howard Fischer, Capitol Media Services | 2 comments About one out of every 15 children in the United States was born to a family where at least one parent is in this country illegally, according to a new report Wednesday. And four out of five of those 5.1 million children -- including 340,000 born in just 2008 -- are citizens because they were born in the United States, the Pew Hispanic Center concluded. That, according to some, makes them ``anchor babies'' for their illegal parents. The figures, which the organization calculated based on 20 ...

Mexico Ex-President Fox Calls for Drug LegalizationFormer Mexican President Vicente Fox said his country should legalize the production and sale of drugs in order to curb rising cartel-related violence. Legalizing narcotics would curtail funding to organized crime groups, who are using profits from the drug trade to consolidate power, Fox wrote yesterday on his personal website. “Radical prohibition strategies have never worked,” Fox said. “The cost of the fight against organized crime, and in particular narcotics trafficking, has been enormous in our country.” The drug war has killed 28,000 people in Mexico since late 2006, when President Felipe Calderon entered ...
