CONGRESSMAN HANK JOHNSON: POSTER-CLOWN FOR WHY CONGRESS GETS NO RESPECT Posted On: May 6th, 2013 Source: http://clashdaily.com

Congressman Hank Johnson (D., GA) was previously best known for his performance during a defense budget hearing in 2010. During that meeting Johnson opined that the island of Guam, because of its relatively small size, would tip over and capsize due to overpopulation. No, he wasn’t joking. If this blinding display of genius isn’t enough for you, you are in luck. Johnson is not through making your day. On April 25th Johnson spoke up again, once again taking the House floor. Was he redeeming himself by tackling critical fiscal concerns? Focusing, perhaps, on attacks against Constitutional freedoms? No. According to National Review Online, Hank Johnson “stood up for some of the most important victims of congressional gridlock: children’s birthday parties and comedians trying to make their voices high-pitched.” He was, in short, discussing a bill to continue the federal government’s sales from the National Helium Reserve. You read that correctly; helium. In an America currently besieged on all sides, the Honorable Hank Johnson addressed Congress by stating: “Imagine, Mr. Speaker, a world without balloons.” A world without balloons. He wasn’t joking this time, either. One supposes that some credit is due him; it took him a full, three years to prove, once again, that he is a Democrat jackass … figuratively and literally. You may want to remember that the next time some Democrat says Conservatives are stupid. It is irrelevant that Johnson supposed he was being clever during his speech. It was weighed down (unintentional crack) with puns, referring to helium’s lighter-than-air properties. It is irrelevant whether he was serious about his subject or not. What is relevant is that a duly elected Congressman from Georgia wasn’t just making a fool of himself. He was making idiots of us all. Hank Johnson, Congressman from Georgia, has nothing better to do than prove just how ignorant he is at the expense of the American people Johnson was first elected to Congress in 2006; he has been re-elected three times since then. According to OpenSecrets.org, Johnson sponsored 12 bills as of 2012, ten of which originated in 2011, of such importance as H.R. 34, “Expressing condolences to and solidarity with the people of the Commonwealth of Australia as they struggle against deadly floods that began on December 24, 2010”, and H.R. 528, Neglected Infections of Impoverished Americans Act. He co-sponsored an additional 365 bills, 269 of which were put forth during 2011. Bills like H.R. 831, “honoring and recognizing David ‘Dave’ Warren Brubeck for his contributions in musical composition, jazz, and to the international community (he liked Lena Horne, too)” and H.R. 785, “condemning the discrimination, hate crimes, racism, bigotry, bullying and brutal violence perpetrated against Sikh-Americans, and all acts of vandalism against Sikh Gurdwaras in the United States.” These bills were, literally, chosen at random to illustrate the difference Johnson has made, in his elected capacity, to the welfare of his state and nation. Johnson is just one case of Congressional buffoonery (Sheila Jackson Lee also springs to mind). The fact that there are no intelligence requirements for elected office is unconscionable. Worse still, such individuals keep getting re-elected by an equally dim and uncaring electorate. And Johnson’s like will keep cluttering up Congress as long as his constituents are no better. http://www.republicbroadcasting.org/...articleID=5210

Los Angeles man Jamiel Shaw offered a heart wrenching personal story while testifying before the House Judiciary Committee on Thursday. Shaw told lawmakers about how a young illegal alien gang member who would qualify for legalization under the DREAM Act provisions of the “Gang of Eight” immigration bill--and currently qualifies for legalization under President Barack Obama’s deferred action program--murdered his son on his front lawn in 2008.

“In 2008 on March the 2nd, the American dream came to a screeching halt for my son, Jamiel Shaw the 2nd, also known as Jamiel Shaw, Jr.,” Shaw testified. “Jamiel was just 17 years young and a football superstar destined for greatness when he was gunned down three doors from our home while his mother was serving in Iraq.”

Shaw, Jr., his father testified, “was a junior at Los Angeles High School and already being looked at by universities such as Rutgers and Stanford.”

“The last time I spoke to my son he was on his way home from the mall,” Shaw said. “I can still hear his voice, ‘Be right home dad, I'm right around the corner!’ He never made it home and our lives are permanently separated.”

Shaw said that when he next saw his son, he was “lying on the ground dead.”

“According to the coroner who testified at the trial, Jamiel was shot in the stomach first and while he was lying on the ground with his hands covering his head pleading for his life, he was shot again,” Shaw said. “The bullet went through his hand and straight into his head.”

At his son’s funeral a few days later, Shaw said the Los Angeles Police Department visited his home to inform him they believed they had captured his son’s killer. “We also learned that he was executed by an illegal alien gang member from Mexico with a history of violence,” Shaw said.

“We often hear supporters of people who are here illegally say that the children were brought to the USA ‘by no fault of their own’ as if that makes everything right. But many people overlook the fact that their parents made a choice to violate our laws," Shaw explained. "The parents made a choice to leave their country illegally and entered America illegally, and their illegal immigrant son made the choice to join the gang."

"The illegal alien charged with murdering my son was arrested in November, 2007 on a prior arrest of assault with a deadly weapon and battery on a police officer," he continued. "Yet he was given early release from jail on March 1st (a Saturday night). The very next day, he executed my son and left him for dead like he was a piece of trash on the streets.”

Shaw noted that the Los Angeles District Attorney’s office said the illegal alien murdered his son because he was black and because his Spider Man backpack was red.

“To this day, we still don't know why LACSD negligently released him from jail and why was he given a 6 month early release,” Shaw said. “We still don't know why Immigration Custom Enforcement (ICE) didn't pick him up from jail or if ICE was even called by LACSD for pickup. They refuse to tell us what happened.”

In the Gang of Eight immigration bill in the U.S. Senate, there is a provision that would allow gang members to simply verbally state they are no longer members if gangs and still receive legalized status. The National Review’s Andrew Stiles detailed recently how that loophole would apply to people who have been convicted of gang-related crimes and were involved in other criminal activities.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) National Council president Chris Crane testified about those provisions during Thursday’s hearing as well, warning that more tragedies like those that happened to Shaw’s son are likely to happen if interior immigration enforcement conditions are not improved. Currently, the bill does nothing to improve them and in many cases makes them worse.

Crane testified that the “Gang of Eight legislation currently before the Senate reflects an absence of law enforcement input as it contains no tangible plan for border security and for the most part ignores interior enforcement altogether, while simultaneously creating a path to citizenship for members of criminal street gangs as well as a majority of criminal aliens currently residing in the United States illegally."

"In short, we are shocked by the lack of border security and interior enforcement measures as well as the level of criminality permitted by the Gang of Eight legislation," he declared.

Even though the bill provides protections and loopholes for criminal gang members like the one who killed his son, Shaw noted in his congressional testimony that his own senator from his home state, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), still supports the bill. Shaw said Feinstein also supports the provisions protecting gang members.

“According to a report conducted by Senator Dianne Feinstein several years ago, the majority of all gangs in the USA consist of illegal alien gang members,” Shaw said. “In spite of this report by Feinstein, she still supports the useless gang provision from the gang of 8 illegal immigration bill, which rewards illegal alien gangs with a path to citizenship."

"Why?" he asked. "Why would an elected official reward gangbangers who are in the country illegally?”

Shaw urges lawmakers to support House Republicans’ approach to immigration reform, like the plan being offered by Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) and House Judiciary Committee chairman Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R-VA). He also supports a proposal called “Jamiel’s Law,” which, like Gowdy’s bill (The Strengthen and Fortify Enforcement (SAFE) Act HR 227, would “deport illegal alien gang members from the USA” instead of “wait[ing] for them to commit other crimes.”

It would also deport illegal aliens who are criminal gang members even if they would qualify for DREAM Act provisions of various pieces of legislation or President Obama’s deferred action program.

Jamiel Shaw, Jr.'s killer was convicted of murder and is currently on death row awaiting execution.
