Washington Post Story
Pretty funny that the U.S. government would track American citizens movements across our borders, but turns a blind eye to citizens of other countries entering our country illegally.

No Country For Sheep


The primary responsibility of the U.S. government is to protect the territorial integrity and people of this country. They have completely abdicated this responsibility. Both parties have been complicit in this. We are being told it is not possible to control our borders, enforce our laws, and thereby control our destiny as a nation. Hogwash. We are being sold out by corporations intent on importing workers for jobs that can't be exported with the taxpayers paying the true costs, financial and human. If we act like sheep and don't stop the inundation across our borders, we will lose our country without a bleat.

Chicago Tribune Story
I'm sure they meant to say Illegal Alien, not undocumented immigrant, in their headline. That might make it appear to be another propaganda piece designed to misinform Americans about the illegal alien inundation. I know the media wouldn't act as a propaganda arm for citizens of other countries illegally in our country.



Nothing But Propaganda
With the stark exception of Lou Dobbs, almost all of the media is in on the sell out of America. Most of what I see on T.V. is designed to manipulate the public. The administration has only recently done enforcement actions with the intent of providing tear jerking pictures of "poor immigrants". The way slanted dishonest polls are being used to sway public opinion and presented as news is stunning. This campaign of disinformation is worthy of Goebbels.

We are being convinced that it would be wrong to insist that people comply with the law.

That it is racist to want foreign nationals to adapt to our language, culture, and laws.

That anyone who can run across the border should be given U.S. citizenship.

That foreign nationals who break our laws sneaking into our country should be entitled to things that citizens cannot get, like in-state tuition.

That citizens who object to abandoning the rule of law are a small minority of restrictionist, racist, bigoted, xenophobic, nativist yahoos.

That citizens who step up to do the job the government won't do are vigilantes.

That we have no choice but to surrender our country.

Wake me up when the world turns right side up.
