JOHN McCAIN AND THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS

As they say in journalism whenever you wonder why things happen it is always useful to ask: who benefits? The liberal mainstream media loves to trot out Senator John McCain as the Republican voice when it comes to illegal immigration. But, why does Juan McCain want to push comprehensive illegal immigration reform that provides an amnesty er.. "pathway to citizenship" for millions of illegals in the United States? As usual follow the money! The former CEO of the Spanish language television network Univision played a big part in his 20008 campaign. It is also in the best interest of Spanish language networks like Univision to make sure as many of the illegal immigrants get to stay here as possible. Senator John McCain is trying to make sure that happens! Hola suckers!

UNIVISION KICKING SOME LIBERAL JOURNALISM BUTT!

First it was Jorge Ramos asking some tough questions of the powers that be. Namely President Obama and showing the eunuchs of the White House Press Corp and other journalist how journalism is supposed to be done! Now Univision comes back with an expose that many in the liberal mainstream media outlets (I'm talking to you NBC!) did not even touch for over a year because it would be embarrassing for Eric Holder and President Obama. Hats off to Univision for keeping journalism alive and having the cohones to do the investigative journalism into stories that most of the liberal U.S. mainstream media does not want to touch.

OBAMA ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION: THE GOOD THE BAD & THE UGLY

President Obama did some more Hispandering yesterday speaking to a "town hall" carried on the Spanish television network Univision. His remarks show some improvement but, in some areas he still does not get it! Here are some of the money quotes:

"President Barack Obama on Monday told a student who has received a deportation notice that he does not want to deport her -- he wants people like her to succeed."

Succeed at what? Continuing to break our immigration laws? Succeed in jumping to the head of the line over other more deserving immigrants who are patiently waiting to enter the United States legally? Succeed in making U.S. taxpayers continue to pay for her education?

"The president later added, “America is a nation of laws, which means I, as the president, am obligated to enforce the law.”

BINGO! Yes, enforce the law Obama. But, you are not enforcing the law when you give a free pass to those who are here illegally and allow them to take advantage of U.S. taxpayers by allowing them to take seats away from U.S. and legal immigrants in colleges and rewarding them with misguided legislation like the DREAM ACT.

"After the president addressed the illegal-alien student’s question, the moderator of the event asked Obama, “Mr. President, my question will be as follows: With an executive order, could you be able to stop deportation of the students?”
Obama said, “There are enough laws on the books by Congress that are very clear in terms of how we have to enforce our immigration system that for me to simply, through executive order, ignore those congressional mandates, would not conform with my appropriate role as president.” 

Maybe we are getting somewhere here. Perhaps Obama finally is starting to understand that Congress and the American people have made it clear that we want illegal immigration to stop and we want something done about the illegal immigrants in this country who continue to violate U.S. immigration laws. We don't want to continue to reward them.  He's getting better but, still has a long way to go.

Vickie Iseman vs The New York Slime

Carlos Slim the Mexican Billionaire must be breathing a sigh of relief. As it seems none of the 250 million he recently provided to bailout the New York Times will not be going to pay lobbyist Vickie Iseman in a defamation suit. It was a feeble attempt by the paper to slime John McCain by insinuating that he had been having an affair with Univision Lobbyist Vickie Iseman. This of course was nonsense! As is increasingly the case the New York Times and other elites in the media they ignored the real story. Make no mistake people were getting screwed by McCain but, it was the American people. As the Mickey Kaus pointed out:

"Former Univision CEO, controlling shareholder and Iseman client Jerrold Perenchio is a National FInance Co-Chair of McCain's campaign. Presumably he brings in more than $85,000; b) The worry isn't that McCain was taking advantage of Univision, et. al. It's rather the other way around. Or, more precisely, that this was a smarmy, mutually self-interested alliance that helped McCain and Univision in ways that maybe went beyond promoting the national interest. "


That's the real scandal behind this story. It is about the lobbist influence on McCain and explains the real reason why he is always pushing for amnesty for the millions of illegal immigrants (the majority Hispanic). He is shilling for his friends at the Spanish language network Univision and making sure that the audience and Univision's revenue do not head south.

Of course the New York Times completely missed the connection or just ignored it. Just another example of why they continue to go downhill in their reporting and readership.

McCain's Univision connection

Mickey Kaus and others have dug a little deeper into Ms. Iseman Juan McCain's "friend"/lobbyist and it turns out she was also working for the Spanish language network Univision too! Gee, I wonder why McCain worked so hard on the illegal immigration amnesty bill last year. Could it be Univision wanted to make sure it did not lose it's audience here in the U.S.? Oh yeah and here is another interesting the money quote:
"Former Univision CEO, controlling shareholder and Iseman client Jerrold Perenchio is a National FInance Co-Chair of McCain's campaign.
