Undocumented Democrats
Posted by: Greg Hengler at 11:53 AM
After yesterday's decision by the Department of Homeland Security to strip Sheriff Arpaio of immigration authority, it does not take a genius to figure out why:



So let it be written. So let it be done.

Because...
"it does not take a genius to figure out why:"

Because he's a petty tyrant who routinely abuses his authority but is hugely popular in certain crowds who view anything short of waterboarding as coddling criminals.

Bingo!
"Undocumented Democrats" Ha!

To join with the unnatural, the unreasonable and the unworty ones that populate their caucus.

"da messiah says"
its amazing how the inter-web is starting to resemble the mail order hate tracts that used to be everywhere in the 60's.

So I guess we really did need a department of homeland security.

Do you think that the illegals should just be left alone?
vladimir estragon writes: Thursday, October, 08, 2009 12:20 PM
Let me get this straight
So Greg and SJA and others are saying that if a policeman walked up to them on the street, out of the blue, and asked to see proof of citizenship, that they wouldn't have a problem with that?

I thought the big bad government was taking away all of our freedoms.

Dread writes: Thursday, October, 08, 2009 12:22 PM
That's a tangent...
But no.

We need to reform the immigration laws to more reflect reality, reform the labyrinthine immigration bureaucracy, and strengthen border and port enforcement.

Of course, this has little to do with why Arpaio should be removed from office.

who acorn will register and swear to their legallity, so yes Its all criminal and it goes clear to the top, OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!

Removed from office...?!
The man should be cloned and a copy put in charge of the police forces of every major city in America....!

Arpaio won by 55% to 42% in 2008
...and I was proud to cast my vote for him, especially since it pi$$ed off the liberals!

I don't really care for his self-aggrandizement, but his stance on illegal aliens is awesome. You also have to love tent city (unless you have served time there), pink underwear and chain gangs. Ask anyone that has done time in tent city and they don't want to go back (isn't that the goal).
Dread writes: Thursday, October, 08, 2009 12:33 PM
Hmm...
"The man should be cloned and a copy put in charge of the police forces of every major city in America....!"

So you're pro-police state. Good to know.

The federal government
not only will not do it's job, but it stops Americans that to try to do their job. I swear I'm at the end of my rope. Wasn't it Abraham Lincoln who said "The government using the people, against the people, above the people" in the Gettysburg Redress? Am I remembering wrong?

really don't understand illegal as opposed to undocumented?

Dread what happens when an illegal drives with no license and no insurance and then hits your car?

Theft, assault, fraud, robbery, rape, kidnapping- those aren't crimes, man. Those are the mere expected responses from the honest, poor peoples who have for decades been frustrated by a repressive system enforced by racist, fascist imperialist capitalist stooges like Joe Arpaio. They're just gettin' back what's theirs, man. As for illegal immigrants, ain't no such thing. Borders are artifical representations imposed on the natural beauty of Gaia by corporations and pharmacies. Pass the joint.

When the cop sees you acting suspiciously and asks what you're doing and your only reply is, "no sabe"
maybe it's time to ask for your proof of citizenship.
Dread writes: Thursday, October, 08, 2009 1:47 PM
Well...
Since this happened to me (and the man fled to Mexico to avoid arrest/prosecution), I had to file a police report, report it to my insurance, get my car fixed and suck it up.

Shouldn't happen. There should be more border enforcement.

This does not change my opinion (or the facts I base that opinion on) that Arpaio is a small petty tyrant who abuses his authority frequently.
Don writes: Thursday, October, 08, 2009 2:24 PM
Dread
Apparently the people that continue to elect Arpaio disagree.
Trampling out the vintage writes: Thursday, October, 08, 2009 2:40 PM
Dread, Arpaio far from perfect, but
he's a hell of a lot better than these wussies that bow to the latino groups and provide sanctuary cities.
You have it wrong, I don't believe in pro-police states, but there is clearly a problem with law enforcement in this Country!
Dread writes: Thursday, October, 08, 2009 3:04 PM

People elect plenty of charismatic scoundrels who have no business being in the distant vicinity of power.

That does not make them fit for any public office.

"When the cop sees you acting suspiciously and asks what you're doing and your only reply is, "no sabe"

What about when you walk out of the Safeway and the local cops stop you and ask to see your papers? Uh, sorry, Mr. Deltagreen, your drivers license isn't proof of citizenship.

I guess it's not government infringement of your liberties if somebody can tie it somehow to illegal aliens.

"What about when you walk out of the Safeway and the local cops stop you and ask to see your papers?"

If law enforcement officers did that without reasonable suspicion I would object to it, demand that it be investigated, and expect the offending officers to be properly dealt with. Do you have any evidence that things like that are happening?

Yeah, there's this sheriff in Arizona who's decided he's going to check citizenship papers and enforce the federal laws.

Yeah, really......tar and feathers is the only appropriate recourse for the scoundrel.....!

Sheesh!

True believers, just not in America.
Liberals are really odd in that they wanted transparency, they wanted ethics, they wanted law and order: yep law and order. But, they will lie, cheat, give ACORN-SEIU monies, mine and yours to get, more Dems registered. They will show their croc tears for illegals, but for what? Human kindness? Of course not: they want permanent voters to be dependent on them and federal unfunded mandates. Ah, the love and joy of the liberal vision. America denuded militarily, and taxed so all those rich people will be forced out of business. And those jobs they promised? Well, this is to be a jobless recovery. And if illegals take jobs, well all those white entrepreneurs deserve to be threatened with supposed civil rights cases if they do not hire them over legal American citizens. Yipe. What a mentality. Reminds me of Mussolini during the '20's and '30's.

"...there's this guy who has been elected sheriff and people are upset because he's enforcing the law......?!"

No, you misunderstood the story.

"Yeah, really......tar and feathers is the only appropriate recourse for the scoundrel.....!"

No, nobody said anything about tar and feathers. In fact, the guy still has his job.

Oh, and you need to have the ">/." key checked out on your keyboard. It's obviously malfunctioning.
Ryan writes: Thursday, October, 08, 2009 4:50 PM
Damn shame
that the Republicans and Bush didn't deal with this problem when they were the majority, instead of ignoring it or worse, trashing people like Tancredo (Karl Rove) when he tried to deal with it.

Bottom line is this. Does this nation wish to be a first world country or a third world nation benefitting only the superich due to cowardice of the so-called "leaders" who are politically correct?

We need MORE Arpaoi's not less
the Immigration problem is squarely a Democratic creation. Because first of all, of the 315 million people who now reside in this country, 22 million are illegal aliens. These illegal's have with them 60 million offspring. Their reproduction rate is "5 times" the national average for US Citizens. You do the math to determine how long it will be before your vote is worthless and we become 'a minority' in a country (OUR COUNTRY!, not theirs) we built with our sweat and tax dollars; A third world country, just like the one they left behind them! Of that number, 10% of them do vote because they have 'forged documents' and are aided and abetted by Hispanic organizations like MALDEF, LaRasa and a whole alphabet soup array of others who aide and abet these criminals in our country, in violation of our laws.

The don't concern themselves that it is a federal felony to assist, conceal, provide aide and shelter to wanted criminals and illegal aliens are in that category, having violated the federal laws to get and remain here (this does not even consider that fully 60% of all illegal aliens that are here now, were wanted felons, BEFORE they violated our immigration laws and entered our country illegally, as drug traffickers, sex slave traffickers and killers on the run, arriving to ply their trade on more fertile ground, thanks to Democrats who shield them!

Why do specify that it is the Democrats? Because of the more than 100 sanctuary cities in the United States, all are run by Democrats and their policy is that no one, not even a policeman who arrests an illegal for a crime, can report htat individuals presence to the federal authorities! In other words; The Democrats who are elected to operate these cities are engaged in ORGANIZED CRIME and CORRUPTION. the entire Democrat contingency of our Congress is in violation of R.I.C.O., the 'Organized Crime" law!')

More Arpaio's
Part 2

You might ask, "Why isn't our government enforcing our laws, thus saving the taxpayers 1/3 of a trillion dollars a year...yes, you read correctly, it cost U.S. Taxpayers 1/3 of a trillion dollars to "keep" these illegal aliens in our country in violation of our laws?" Why?! Because the Democrats want it that way! Pelosi has pushed it, Harry Reid has pushed it, Obama has pushed it and swears that after National Healthcare is law, he will 'get' amnesty and citizenship for the illegal's now in our country and the Democrats have a companion Bill 'waiting in the wings' that will grant immediate citizenship to these illegal's (the cost to taxpayers hasn't even been mentioned yet and it is 1.4 trillion dollars...of your money! Where's it going to come from? Out of your hide!), because the Democrats know they can 'buy' their votes with more of YOUR tax money!

We all know they're trying to shut down conservative talk show and TV hosts, and I knew it would just be a matter of time until they went after this Sheriff. they have to shut up the voices of the people, dontcha know?
The blood WILL run in the streets before this era of Liberal-based
