    How Mad are you?

    How mad are you, American public?

    I guess we will find out.

    How concerned are you, American public?

    I suppose we will see.

    How much do your value YOUR heritage, American public?

    I rather reckon we will determine that one way or the other won’t we?

    Are you mad enough to speak up? To call, to write? Are you concerned enough about the United States of America to not wait on the sidelines for someone else to ‘take care of it’?

    How much do you value your American heritage? You may be of Hispanic, European, Asian or Native American background, but again I ask you, how much do you value your heritage in the United States of America? Not sure what heritage means? Here, the dictionary definition of the word heritage:

    Heritage is a noun. Heritage means the following;

    a) Something transmitted by or acquired from a predecessor : LEGACY, INHERITANCE , TRADITION

    b) Something possessed as a result of one's natural situation or birth.

    If you have been quietly waiting for “someone else to speak up� because A) you own a business, B) your neighbors are Spanish or C) it doesn’t make a difference to our government, I am going to tell you that you are wrong on all three.

    By doing nothing and waiting for that someone else to do something and by you calling me, writing me, and telling me in the street how “glad you are I am doing something�, how “brave I am� to speak up, how you support me 100% but you cannot do /say/act on anything because you own a business, have Spanish neighbors or figure it just doesn’t matter to our government, you are selling our country, our heritage, and our laws down the river. You do realize that don’t you? You cannot be so blind as to NOT see what is happening in our country. This is not Mexico’s country, not Latin America, but the United States of America. Our multi-national, diversified, law-based American country.

    This is what our president has to say. This statement is exactly why I, a staunch Republican, did NOT vote for him this year. You see, I am a terrible RINO. That would be Republican In Name Only just in case any of you are interested. I am a fabulous patriot and a firm believer in our country, our Constitution and our laws. These are being mocked by our president.

    Read for yourselves what he thinks of America and American citizen’s opinions in �Immigration plan� here.

    "’A solution is not instantaneous citizenship. The solution is something more rational than that,’ said Mr. Bush, leaning forward in his armchair and putting his elbows on his knees.

    “The president expressed confidence that he can persuade reticent members of Congress to move on his immigration bill, recounting how he has succeeded on issues that faced staunch opposition in the past. ‘Remember the tax debate? It seems like history tends to repeat itself,’ Mr. Bush said, leaning back in his chair.�

    I am glad our president is resting comfortably, confidently, in his lofty chair. Are you resting comfortably in yours?
    Once again, I am going to ask you. What are YOU planning to do about it? Yes, you.

    Not me, not Tom Tancredo, not Mr. Sensenbrenner, but YOU. The American public. The taxpayer. Do you realize the implications of this guest-worker program? It will be a Family Reunification program, designed to reunite illegal workers with their families in the United States of America. All babies born here will be citizens, with the ability to grant United States citizenship to numerous extended family members who now live outside the United States. Thus the term “Anchor babies.� Each taxpayer pays, on average, $7,000 per child per year for enrollment in our schools. Each guest worker will be eligible for all welfare benefits. They will all have Drivers Licenses. How many more vehicles will be on YOUR streets? Count on your car insurance rates jumping, due to the increased risk of accidents because of heavier traffic and associated risks. What will be your personal impact? You will be impacted.
    Our congressman here in Colorado, Tom Tancredo, had this to say, [b][color=#444444]'People who have felt this way for a long time but have bit their lip and have held their tongue now have a reason â€â€

    I've been outraged by this government since The Great Society of the Johnson administration. That was the biggest redistribution of wealth that any country has ever survived. To allow millions of able bodied people to go to the public trough to feed was a huge blow against the freedoms of hard working people. I was almost a lone voice...as I wrote letters to editors, legislators...there were a few who wanted to join in with me..but we were so few no one heard us.

    After all these years and dozens of socialist experiments...all failures, BTW..we still haven't learned anything. Now they want to declare amnesty for millions who don't belong in this country for any reason. They need to be working in their own country to establish a fair and peaceful existence. Their hearts are in their own land...only their bodies are here.

    My friend James used to be a caseworker for some branch of the Texas welfare system, and he told me that if you count subsidized housing, Aid to Dependant Children, and several other welfare programs, people were "making" over 9 dollars per hour just by collecting welfare. He said he would go into mock interviews with welfare women to teach them how to interview better, and he'd ask them how'd they'd respond to a prospectove employer offering them $9 per hr--and they told James right to his face that they'd say no because they make more money staying home. It's really simple economics for them.

    So the question becomes how do you get people off this system, and out working? I find it interesting that $9 per hr is the exact rate Tyson Chicken pays illegals in their meat-packing plants.

    In Michigan, they made it so welfare recipients had to get a job or go to school in order to continue to receive benefits. Their benefits were reduced by the amount of money they earned at work. Many people moved out of Michigan and Michigan has saved an untold amount of money from those who got a job or those who went to school and later got a job. Of course if they are illegal, they need to be sent home to their country of origin.

    GREAT POST SIXX!!!

    Excellent Information, too. I'd seen a figure a few years ago that all welfare most recipients were receiving added up to about $18,000 a year which matches your $9 an hour assuming 2000 hour work week perfectly!!

    Now....realize that illegals earn the $9 on the job PLUS the $18,000 a year in benefits. They file false tax returns qualifying them for BENEFITS as welfare recipients so they are actually sucking out $36,000 a year from our system and sending $16 Billion a year of it back home to MEXICO, their Beloved Homeland.

    KILL THE MCCAIN KENNEDY SALAZAR LIEBERMAN BILL:

    Titled "Secure America and ORDERLY Immigration Act" which if you read it, I posted it, DOES NOTHING but legalize all the illegals already here and places NO RESTRICTIONS on new illegals.

    SIXX--Salazar is a Senator from Colorado and his name is on the Act, which is actually an Act, NOT TO ACT.

    Tell your Coloradans about this...he is a brand new Senator...make him a One Term Joe.....OR convince him to WITHDRAW HIS NAME AS A SPONSOR because of whatever he wants to say....but what worked here in North Carolina on the In-State Tuition Bill...was..."they signed up because friends asked them before they really understood the impact of the bill!!

    GET SALAZAR OFF THAT BILL!!
