It’s been our position on this blog that Obama wouldn’t provide amnesty, certainly not in his first term, and we still stand by that. So in lieu of amnesty the Obamanation is pursuing a very safe, very traditional course. Making it almost impossible to enforce immigration law or deport illegal aliens and making it easier than ever for illegal aliens to vote…
First, making his future voters, ahem, I mean illegal aliens impossible to deport. Andy McCarthy reports…
The Legal Times is reporting that Attorney General Holder has reversed the ruling by Attorney General Mukasey that aliens in immigration removal proceedings have no right to effective assistance of counsel. As Mukasey explained back in January, in a well-reasoned 34-page opinion which carefully analyzed the pertinent law, the Sixth Amendment right to counsel applies only to criminal cases. Thus, it does not apply to removal under the immigration laws, which is civil, not criminal, in nature. Immigrants in removal cases are allowed to have counsel if they wish, but they must retain lawyers on their own, at no expense to the taxpayers.
Then, making it easier than ever for his peeps to vote president for life Obama…
The Justice Department has rejected Georgia’s system of using Social Security numbers and driver’s license data to check whether prospective voters are citizens, a process that was a subject of a federal lawsuit in the weeks leading up to November’s election.
In a letter released on Monday, the Justice Department said the state’s voter verification program is frequently inaccurate and has a “discriminatory effect” on minority voters. The decision means Georgia must halt the citizenship checks, although the state can still ask the Justice Department to reconsider, according to the letter and to the Georgia secretary of state’s office.
“This flawed system frequently subjects a disproportionate number of African-American, Asian and/or Hispanic voters to additional, and more importantly, erroneous burdens on the right to register to vote,” Loretta King, acting assistant attorney general of the Justice Department’s civil rights division, said. King’s letter was sent to Georgia Attorney General Thurbert Baker on Friday.
Remember when the left kept accusing GWB of preparing (any moment now really!) to take over the US via a coup? Ever notice that when lunatics make insane accusations 99 times out of a hundred they are telegraphing what they themselves intend?
Oh, and just for grins and giggles, here’s a fun fact: did’ja know the US was a Savage, oops! I meant to say Muslim nation?
The president said the United States and other parts of the Western world “have to educate ourselves more effectively on Islam…. And one of the points I want to make is, is that if you actually took the number of Muslim Americans, we’d be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world,” Mr. Obama said. “And so there’s got to be a better dialogue and a better understanding between the two peoples.”
Of course it now turns out that the once unthinkable, not to mention unsayable ( at least before the election ) has finally been acknowledged…
During a conference call in preparation for President Obama’s trip to Cairo, Egypt, where he will address the Muslim world, deputy National Security Adviser for Strategic Communications Denis McDonough said “the President himself experienced Islam on three continents before he was able to — or before he’s been able to visit, really, the heart of the Islamic world — you know, growing up in Indonesia, having a Muslim father — obviously Muslim Americans (are) a key part of Illinois and Chicago.”…
Since the election, however, with the threat of the rumors at least somewhat abated, the White House has been increasingly forthcoming about the president’s roots. Especially when reaching out to the Muslim world.
In his April 6 address to the Turkish Parliament, President Obama referenced how many “Americans have Muslims in their families or have lived in a Muslim majority country. I know, because I am one of them.”
Just a reminder: if you read these words and believe them you are a racist my friend, sorry! I know its unfair, but hey, you elected this cockknocker now you have to live under the new and improved “post racial regime” i.e. extra super crispy racism to make up for all the oppression the Obamanation experienced while at Ivy league schools.
Needless to say when this weak, cowardly, feckless lowlife finally stands up for something other than accolades to his sheer magnificence? It’s oppression, please try to contain your shock…
Moreover, freedom in America is indivisible from the freedom to practice one’s religion. That is why there is a mosque in every state in our union and over 1,200 mosques within our borders. That’s why the United States government has gone to court to protect the right of women and girls to wear the hijab, and to punish those who would deny it
Which of course is how you end up with an openly racialist POS preparing to ascend to our highest judicial posting….
First, I’m curious as to when Sotomayor ceased being a Puerto Rican nationalist who favors independence — as she says she does in the preface. (The position, as she points out in the thesis, had received 0.6 percent in a 1967 referendum, the most recent such vote before she wrote the thesis.) I don’t know that I’ve seen it reported anywhere that she favored Puerto Rican independence, which has always been very much a fringe position….
Second, her unwillingness to call the Congress the U.S. Congress is bizarre — in the thesis, it’s always referred to as either the ‘North American Congress’ or the ‘mainland Congress.’ I guess by the language of her thesis, it should be said that she’s seeking an appointment to the North American Supreme Court, subject to advice and consent of the North American Senate. This kind of rhetoric was very trendy, and not uncommon, among the Latin Americanist fringe of the academy.
Electing savages has consequences folks!
But needless to say, there’s absolutely nothing to worry about folks! Well, other than this…
U.S. counterterrorism officials have authenticated a video by an al Qaeda recruiter threatening to smuggle a biological weapon into the United States via tunnels under the Mexico border, the latest sign of the terrorist group’s determination to stage another mass-casualty attack on the U.S. homeland.
The video aired earlier this year as a recruitment tool makes clear that al Qaeda is looking to exploit weaknesses in U.S. border security and also is willing to ally itself with white militia groups or other anti-government entities interested in carrying out an attack inside the United States, according to counterterrorism officials interviewed by The Washington Times.
…
“Four pounds of anthrax — in a suitcase this big — carried by a fighter through tunnels from Mexico into the U.S. are guaranteed to kill 330,000 Americans within a single hour if it is properly spread in population centers there,” the recruiter said. “What a horrifying idea; 9/11 will be small change in comparison. Am I right? There is no need for airplanes, conspiracies, timings and so on. One person, with the courage to carry 4 pounds of anthrax, will go to the White House lawn, and will spread this ‘confetti’ all over them, and then we’ll do these cries of joy. It will turn into a real celebration.”
But I’m every bit as confident as you are that Senor Hopey-Changefulness will sic some of jet powered super Unicorns on those mean old misunderstanders of Islam and negotiate him some delicious kebabs or something.
I could keep going but I think I’ll cut off here and just allow you to marinate in all this hopey-changefulness!
