Alabama: The price of intolerance

this draconian immigration law in Alabama is going to hurt the economy: farmers will have problems finding workers to harvest their crops. Construction companies will have problems with some workers. The immigrant bashing that seems to have taken over the GOP today is misguided and will do a lot of harm.

Thank you for focusing on this editorial, Mr. Gallagher. When I read it this morning, I thought it made a very valuable statement.

"Moral repugnance" is a very good way to describe the Alabama law. Laws that target vulnerable minority groups, that deliberately try to make those groups unwelcome, that try to drive them from a society: laws like that are inherently morally repugnant.

And they will and should bring to mind the way in which the Nazis prepared for the Holocaust with similar laws isolating and stigmatizing the Jewish population of Germany, while far too many Christians remained silent.

Vegetables are rotting in the fields - the farmers are paying the cost of a political indulgence.

STEALING FROM THE TAXPAYERS

The concern of illegal immigration may be on the back burner to jobs, a struggling economy and not simmering under the surface? It doesn't mean that this issue affecting our sovereign nation is going away. The financial sink hole has opened wide again through former speaker Newt Gingrich revelation that people who have settled in America and stayed out of trouble for 25 years, should be allowed to remain here; even with the clause that they can never receive a path to citizenship. These people might have entered initially through an airport terminal, as an estimated 42 % percent of overstays have done, or the other proportion who just slipped across the border at night All the while carefully conceived by numerous administrations, was to make illegal entry just a minor crime; like jay walking and not even substantiated as a criminal offense. This very well maneuvered plan and so carefully manipulated by the politicians just to make it look like the government are obeying the people, the enforcement laws.

But the truth as millions of Americans see it, that it was a bluff, a downright lie; just plain hypocritical words meaning nothing and that the 'Rule of our Law' means nothing? To prohibit illegal immigration was never meant to work? That why this country has now an estimated 20 million foreign nationals here, of which of a large preponderance lives of taxpayers as do many American shirkers. Even if Gingrich did become President, how is he going to process those who are supposedly here for a quarter of a century? Then there is the problem of those who stole Social Security numbers of citizens or legal resident’s, young children and even the dead. Surely this should be judged as a FELONY? Or is Newt Gingrich going to take the wrong path of similarity to President Obama's presidential predilection in permitting certain foreign nationals to stay; this isn’t going down well with the hard working Border Patrol agents or taxpayers.

Newt Gingrich will have major problems in his electoral race on this fact, that these illegal migrants violated the law not once, but in a substantial number of cases, twice over. This is certainly happened after the 1986 Immigration Control and Reform Act. It was Massive fraud on a grand scale in the Amnesty bill. The processing procedure was so overwhelming; the administration neither completed the investigations and background checks rushing pre-legality of farmer laborer’s; THE SAW ACT’ Special Agricultural Workers amnesty provision as a path to citizenship. The real fraud was in the initial paperwork, as millions of phony documents were brought and sold, as of which showed that they had lived in the United States for five years. The cost for the processing of all these millions of people was estimated to be $700 million dollars. After the law was passed and signed into law. Millions then deserted their jobs in Agriculture, opening up even more hires for illegal aliens, in a never ending stream.

Today--as according to the Heritage Foundation, who has completed a thorough analysis of the cost, would be $2.6 trillion dollars for a new amnesty. Then fraudulent applications would be processed, with many employers’ continuing their illicit hiring practices, and once again illegal immigration pushing America further into debt.. The Center for Immigration Studies estimated the illegal immigrant population was at 10 million as of November 2004, but the U.S. Census Bureau estimated 8.7 million illegal immigrants were here by 2000, and that immigration officials estimate that the illegal immigrant population grows by as many as 500,000 every year.

Another Amnesty would be devastating to this country, as the millions of family members could be sponsored and placed on the conveyor belt, adding even more unfettered poverty. Eventually our social safety net would collapse, because of the untold millions would then gain legal access to every conceivable entitlement program. The total fiscal deficit on all direct and indirect costs is for the decade after 1986; but not including the costs of the blanket amnesty itself, was $78.7 billion. Most states are holding back because the Liberal Progressives in the Department of IN-Justice are using their power to undermine Alabama’s law. States that are ONLY trying to safeguard their taxpayers money which includes Georgia, South Carolina, Indiana, Arizona is already being intimidated by the uncontrollable US government.

The TEA PARTY will never be approving of another Amnesty, or any cleverly disguised term such as Immigration Reform, no matter what the powerful policymakers say and do? The government cannot be trusted, as they have proven their dishonest deception time and time again. It’s like the rules and laws we live by, doesn’t apply to them. Just takes a look at the latest corruption coming down the “pipes?” Insider Trading! Another concealed agenda Democrat Nancy Pelosi and Majority Speaker John Boehne rand a great many others. For ordinary Americans and Wall Street people are found responsible for ‘Insider Trading” the offence is punishable with time in prison; however the politicians are allowed to trade stocks and shares with insider knowledge with impunity. Read about the corruption in Congress at the ‘Judicial Watch’ web pages.

The outlay in entitlement programs to illegal aliens and their children such as retirement, pensions, food stamps, Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC,) Medicaid, housing and every other free extra will be visited on miserable taxpayers, are far beyond what taxpayers should be forced to pay by the courts in unfunded mandates. The TEA PARTY is not just about stopping illegal immigration Amnesty, but halting the further encroachment of the distended government on citizen’s lives. It is a guardian of our Constitution from Liberal Extremists, trashing and drafting a new tax code that is fair to everybody, with no exemptions to any company or any other entity.

No more privileged tax havens in the Cayman Islands that our politicians have ignored for their wealthy patrons. Start drilling for our own oil for US consumers and for us export other countries. America has the largest deposits in the world of oil and could reduce the 15 trillion dollar deficit. We must return federal Department to individual states, such as Education; each agency is stagnated from the bureaucrats that run them and like education has fallen in performance behind China, India and many European nations? Cut thousands of mostly groundless regulations, thus industry can be rejuvenated and create jobs. We need real free trading markets, seeing that according to Donald Trump; not the tricks played on us by China and other countries perpetrated on as of us today. It’s a real shame that Trump, the businessman didn’t follow through with his bid for the presidency. Join the TEA PARTY in all of the 50 states and learn what you can do, to stop this assault on our liberties, by Liberals.

The American people cannot be apathetic anymore, so it is time to enforce our immigration laws. The E-Verify program that has gained notoriety, but not in the Liberal press, the special interest lobbyists or radical open border and other so called anomaly. The time has come to build the real fence from Texas to California covering the whole 2500 miles with double-layer fencing. It is also the time to contact the Ways and Means Committee responsible for bringing ‘The Legal Workforce Act’, bill number H.R.2885 to the House floor in Congress. Only the American voter or legal resident has a say in this urgent matter, which will produce large numbers of jobs displaced by the 8.2 illegal workers as estimated to self-deport. The number to call for the Washington political phones is 202-224-3121. The legislators need to listen to the People, instead of deceiving us anymore. If you have further questions, go to the NumbersUSA via Google and study the facts of years of the fabrication and idiom we absorb through the Leftist associated newspapers or the politicians.

Remember none citizens have been voting and are sure to vote in State and federal elections. Citizens must be watchful or this dire consequence.
