America First!

According to the wisdom of our founding fathers we are not to have any entangling alliances with foreign nations. I happen to think that this is a good policy. The policy of the U. S. Constitution was not to engage American troops in combat (war) without an act of congress. In the book, Nineteen Eighty-Four, George Orwell talks about a totalitarian society which embarked upon a policy of achieving "perpetual peace" by engaging in perpetual war. It seems like that is what is upon us now. I think it is clear the 9/11 attack and the other attacks that have happened are because America is being held hostage by Zionist neo-cons. The Zionist kick sand in the face of the Arabs and then send American troops to protect them with Arab wrath and now their wrath is turned on us. It is not America has has caused this blow back, but the Zionists masters of our U.S. military.

It isn't America that is at fault - it is the Zionists who dictate American foreign policy that has brought this calamity upon us. We should stay out of the middle east, not because we care about what happens to Muslims, but we care about what happens to America.

We need to bring the troops home and put them on the border. The invasion of the United States by Mexico is real and is happening every day of the week - 24/7. Let the Israelies fight their own wars.

THE NEW ANT and the Grasshopper

The ANT AND THE GRASSHOPPER

This one is a little different ....

Two Different Versions ...

Two Different Morals

OL D VERSION

The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.

The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.

Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed.

The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.

MORAL OF THE OLD STORY:

Be responsible for yourself!

MODERN VERSION

The ant works hard in the withering heat and the rain all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.

The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.

Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while he is cold and starving.

CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food. America is stunned by the sharp contrast.

How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so?

Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper and everybody cries when they sing, 'It's Not Easy Being Green...'

ACORN stages a demonstration in front of the ant's house where the news stations film the SEIU group singing, ‘We shall overcome’.

Then Rev. Jeremiah Wright has the group kneel down to pray for the grasshopper's sake, while he damns the ants.

President Obama condemns the ant and blames President Bush 43, President Bush 41, President Reagan, Christopher Columbus, and white men in general for the grasshopper's plight.

Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid exclaim in an interview with Larry King that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair share.

Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity & Anti-Grasshopper Act retroactive to the beginning of the summer.

The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the Government Green Czar and given to the grasshopper.

The story ends as we see the grasshopper and his free-loading friends finishing up the last bits of the ant's food while the government house he is in, which, as you recall, just
happens to be the ant's old house, crumbles around them because the grasshopper doesn’t maintain it.

The ant has disappeared in the snow, never to be seen again.

The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident, and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the ramshackle, once prosperous and peaceful, neighborhood.

The Clan is Coming

The Gathering Of The Clan
(And We Don’t Mean the MacGregors!)

"There is nothing wrong with newcomers wishing to bring in members of their extended families. It is perfectly natural and, indeed, admirable to want to help one's relatives. The question remains, however, whether it is in the interests of Canadians to take in large numbers of individuals likely to incur major costs on the taxpayers as well as face greater problems of integration than most skilled independent immigrants. [Not to dwell on the steadily diminishing economic performance of so-called skilled newcomers in recent decades, with each new cohort underperforming the last]. As far back as the 1950s, ... it was calculated that, for every individual from one particular country who was admitted into Canada as an independent immigrant, another forty-nine gained access through sponsorship." (Martin Collacott, “Family Class Immigration: The Need For a Policy Review,” Canadian Issues, Spring 2006)

The following "feel good" story, as breathlessly related by a simpering CBC, does not clarify by what financial means the family patriarch sponsors a seemingly endless troupe of extended family members: "A Somali-born Canadian who has brought 94 members of his family to Canada in the last decade greeted six more in Winnipeg earlier this week. 'We are the lucky family in Manitoba, or I say all of Canada,' Marcus Askar [resident in Canada 15 years], told CBC News on Tuesday night as he greeted the most recent six in his extended family to make the trip from the famine-racked country in the Horn of Africa. ... 'As a family we celebrate that family members are coming,' Marcus Askar said, 'but we are sorry how our people in Somalia are suffering.' [And yet], it looks like the Askar clan will be growing again soon: Rahma Askar, one of the new arrivals, is seven months' pregnant." (CBC, July 31, 2011)

Meanwhile, out there in the rational world: "the United States has halted a program that united African refugees with relatives in America after DNA testing revealed many people were lying about family links, the State Department said on Wednesday. Thousands of Africans have been allowed to settle in the United States since 1990 under the family reunification program, which accepts relatives such as parents or children of people who have already been admitted into the United States as refugees, or who were granted asylum. But recent DNA tests on applicants in seven African countries showed only about 20 percent actually had a family relationship. ... Many of the 3,000 who were tested were from Somalia, Ethiopia, or Liberia." (Reuters, August 20, 2008)

We shudder to think how much this Somali clan will take out of our treasury compared to the pittance they might contribute in taxes. However, the government party line is that immigration is fuelling the economic recovery – well, certainly not OURS!
