ANOTHER OBAMANATION: MORE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT FAMILY MEMBERS

Hello sucker American Taxpayers! While you are busy paying taxes to the Federal Government where you would assume it should do it's job on enforcing immigration laws.  The Obama family from the President on down just spits on this countries laws. First it was Obama's illegal immigrant Aunt who was living on the taxpayers dime in Massachusetts:

"In November 2008, Barack Obama’s unemployed illegal alien aunt who had been living in public housing for years received special dispensation from the Bush administration despite evading deportation orders for years. Despite failing to win an asylum bid and despite ignoring a judicial determination that she return home, Zeituni Onyango won another bid in the immigration court system. In May 2010, the unemployed illegal alien deportation fugitive won her case and remains in the country today — free to moan and whine about how badly America has treated her while living on the taxpayers’ dime." 

Now along comes Obama's illegal immigrant Uncle who like his Aunt had been living here for years committing fraud and living the American Dream even though he is in this country illegally:

"President Obama’s accused drunken-driving uncle — who was busted after a near collision with a Framingham cop — has had a valid Social Security number for at least 19 years, despite being an illegal immigrant ordered to be deported back to Kenya, the Herald has learned."

"It almost sounds like the American Dream. A 2011 version of it, maybe. Because the 67-year-old Kenyan who happens to be President Obama’s uncle wasn’t supposed to be living here, let alone driving drunk here. He’s what some people call undocumented. What others call illegal."

Meanwhile in typical Sargent Schulz fashion our head of clownland security Janet Napolitano "knows nothing" about Obama's Uncle :

“I know that his uncle has been picked up, but I don’t know the facts of the case,” Napolitano said at a breakfast hosted by the Christian Science Monitor. “I can’t comment on the specific case … I don’t really know about it.”

Just like she, Obama and others in the Federal Government know nothing about enforcing immigration laws!

MORE ON THE PRESIDENT OBAMA AND THE DEMOCRATS BACKDOOR AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS

Michelle Malkin has more on this outrage perpetrated by Obama and the Democrats.

OBAMA AND THE DEMOCRATS GIVE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS A FREE PASS!

Well, President Obama is off to the vacation to the enclave of the wealthy on Martha's Vineyard. how nice. But, those illegal immigrants hanging out in neighborhoods all over the United States:

Well, they are not going anywhere now that the Obama Administration is going to put  deportations of illegal immigrants in the case closed file. Hola sucker Americans!    Here is the money quote on how this plan from the Obama Administration works:

"The idea is set those cases aside... see where we can identify very low priorities, and essentially, administratively, close the case so they no longer clog the system," a senior administration official told reporters.

This is just another example of the "FAILURE IS AN OPTION" plans of President Obama and the Democrats in Congress.Think about that Americans.  The Federal Government has people who they have identified as having broken our immigration laws but, they are giving them a free pass and closing their cases just because they have not broken any laws. But, they have! They have broken our Federal immigration laws! 

 

Yes when it comes to enforcing Federal immigration laws Obama has a plan and it is:

ANDERSON COOPER IS AN IDIOT

I was watching CNN's Anderson Cooper this evening go on for several minutes about a French actor who urinated on a plane. He went on about the incident in what was supposed to be a "funny" commentary. He cracked himself up while reading it. Not only was it in bad taste he looked like a complete idiot or someone having nervous breakdown.  It's time for CNN to give him the hook. Watch the video here. Several minutes of sophomoric bathroom puns is what Anderson thinks is funny. Pathetic!

WHAT PART OF "ILLEGAL" DON'T THEY GET

You need to read the following real slow:



(Reuters) - Latino activists held a protest outside President Barack Obama's 2012 campaign headquarters on Tuesday to ask him to end a criminal deportation program they say is snaring large number of illegal immigrants who have not committed crimes.

"They're saying it is to deport criminal immigrants, but in reality, that's not happening," said Xochitl Espinoza, of the National Alliance of Latin American and Caribbean Communities activist group, which took part in the protest on Tuesday.

Now it's the time for these Latino activists to read this sign: 

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

"One of the assumptions I disagree with however is that the president “can’t put together a plan.” Oh yes he can. We’ve seen the implementation of plenty of “plans” — very, very, very expensive plans."

- Doug Powers

TINA BROWN IS FULL OF IT

Seems Tina Brown is really shoveling the BS when she tries to defend why "NEWSWEAK" the publication she edits choose the wide eyed photo of conservative Michelle Bachman that even had Liberal feminists pissed off in it's portrayal. She needs a bigger shovel because no one is buying her story or Newsweek for that matter.

SECURE COMMUNITIES AND THE HYPOCRISY OF THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT ADVOCATES

 Hypocrisy rears it's head again as the illegal immigrant advocacy groups get caught in a Catch 22 of their own making.  Here are the background quotes:

"So long as local police departments send fingerprint information to the FBI, Immigration and Customs Enforcement can also check that data against its databases, ICE Director John Morton informed 39 state governors in an August 5 letter.


"No agreement with the state is legally necessary for one part of the federal government to share it with another part," Morton said, revoking as moot agreements set up between states and ICE over a controversial effort known as Secure Communities."
 
Here is some of the outcry from the illegal immigrant activists groups:
 
"Immigrant rights advocates and a Bay Area lawmaker blasted the Obama administration Monday for stripping states of any power over a national fingerprint-sharing program intended to ease deportations of illegal immigrants held in jail.


Advocacy groups in California called the administration's decision to enforce the Secure Communities program on its own, with no state participation, a "shocking display of bad faith" and urged Gov. Jerry Brown and Attorney General Kamala Harris to speak out against it."
 
Well, well, well the illegal immigrant advocate groups are screaming like stuck pigs after Immigration and Customs Enforcement drop all agreements with localities participating in the "Secure Communities" program.  But, they were the ones screaming after states like Arizona wanted to help enforce immigration laws. The ACLU and others (like the Obama Administration) came out and claimed only the Federal Government can enforce those laws and the states have no voice or right to interfere. Those illegal immigrant advocates should file this under "be careful what you wish for".
 
 

RACHEL MADDOW GETS IT WRONG AGAIN AND AGAIN!

 Well, the left's favorite snarky Liberal lesbian Rachel Maddow got it wrong again!  On her Thursday night show she played a clip from the Rush Limbaugh radio show claiming it was from the day before when in fact it was from a year ago. Newsbusters has the story here.  You would think that having a show on MessNBC would involve more fact checking and that viewers could trust it more than say a YOU TUBE posting but, apparently not. But, of course this is not the first time Maddow has got it wrong.  But, getting it wrong may be ok when your are on the list as one of the Obama administrations approved pundits. Which brings up an interesting point. Rachel Maddow did her show from Washington Friday night. I wonder if she and fellow Obama Administration approved news media types are having another private propaganda sit down with Obama at the White House this weekend? Then again she is supposed to be one of the panelists on MEET THE PRESS this weekend too.  Looks like the standard at NBC Network shows that guests on prestigious shows like MEET THE PRESS are heading toward the MessNBC baseline standard. Wonder if Maddow will wear her glasses on MTP? It may help make her look smarter than she is.

GABBY GIFFORDS THE LIBERAL MEDIA'S COWBELL

It's certainly nice to see Congresswoman Gabby Giffords back in the House of Representatives after her near fatal gun shot wound. But, it was funny to see the liberal media fall over themselves in coverage of this event during and after the vote on raising the U.S. debt limit. NBC NIGHTLY NEWS had no less than two stories about her return the next day nearly twenty four hours later.

Memo to: Brian Williams:
From: BCP
RE: Gabby Giffords coverage

Your program is called NBC Nightly News not NBC Nightly "Old" News.


Of course the Liberal media seemed to have missed Vice President Joe Biden welcoming Congresswoman Giffords to the "cracked heads club". Jonah Goldberg has more on the overblown coverage by the liberal news media here is one of the money quotes:

"The Today Show even had Debbie Wasserman Schultz on this morning for five minutes talking about Giffords. No one thought to ask her what she thought of Biden’s comments? It’s not like she’s the Democratic party’s national spokesperson or anything. Oh, wait. She is!"

Why so much coverage? I imagine there are two many liberal executive producers in the network control rooms like a Saturday Night Live skit  instead of screaming for more "cowbell" are just saying more "Gabby". While many viewers are just saying "enough already"!

FREE CELL PHONES! BUT, NOT FOR YOU TAXPAYERS!

Here's something my fellow U.S. taxpayers can file in the Hello Suckers or WTF? file. You are paying for people on public assistance to get free cell phones! With 250 minutes of "free" talk time. Oh and here is the kicker it is now becoming a "civil right" to have one and of course for you to pay for them. Here are the money quotes:

"Pennsylvanians on public assistance now have a new 'civil right' -- free cell phones. Meanwhile, the rest of us get to pay higher cell bills as a result.

Recently, a federal government program called the Universal Service Fund came to the Keystone State and some residents are thrilled because it means they can enjoy 250 minutes a month and a handset for free, just because they don't have the money to pay for it. Through Assurance Wireless and SafeLink from Tracfone Wireless these folks get to reach out and touch someone while the cost of their service is paid for by everyone else. You see, the telecommunications companies are funding the Universal Service Fund to the tune of $4 billion a year because the feds said they have to and in order to recoup their money, the companies turn around and hike their fees to paying customers. But those of use paying for the free service for the poor, should be happy about this infuriating situation, says Gary Carter, manager of national partnerships for Assurance, because "the program is about peace of mind." Free cell service means "one less bill that someone has to pay, so they can pay their rent or for day care...it is a right to have peace of mind," Cater explained."
 
Welcome to Obamaworld! Why work when someone else will pay your bills and you get free cell phone service too! Hello sucker taxpayers!



 

SWEET ILLEGALS HOME FREE IN ALABAMA?

The Obama Administration's legal waterboy Attorney General Eric Holder is busy at the Justice Department. But, not in helping helping the United States do important things like enforce immigration laws. No, they are busy going after states like Arizonia who are trying to do something about rampant illegal immigration because of the FAILURES of the Federal Government. Now the so called "Justice" Department is going after another state which is trying to compensate for the Federal Government failure when it comes to enforcing illegal immigration laws.  This time they are going after the state of Alabama. Here is the quote from U.S. Attorney for Northern Arizona Joyce White Vance explaining why the Obama administration is going after states like Alabama:

"To put it in terms we relate to here in Alabama, you can only have one quarterback in a football game. In immigration, the federal government is the quarterback," - Joyce White Vance, the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Alabama."

Well Ms. Vance if that's the case it's no wonder we are losing the game in enforcing immigration laws. Because the coach is President Obama and when it comes enforcement of our immigration laws failure is part of the game plan!

One thing U.S. Attorney Vance, Attorney General Eric Holder and President Obama forget is that the American citizens are owners of the team and we are really getting tired of the failures of the Federal Government on the field! Hopefully, we will be making some changes come the election of 2012 to the team at the Justice Department and the White House.

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY! SUCKERS!

Well the Obama administration did it again! They released some really bad news on Obama's stimulus plan on a Friday July 1, 2011.  Better yet since it was really bad news released it on a Friday before a long holiday weekend when they think no one is paying attention. Here are the money quotes fellow tax payers read them and weep:

"The report was written by the White House’s Council of Economic Advisors, a group of three economists who were all handpicked by Obama, and it chronicles the alleged success of the “stimulus” in adding or saving jobs. The council reports that, using “mainstream estimates of economic multipliers for the effects of fiscal stimulus” (which it describes as a “natural way to estimate the effects of” the legislation), the “stimulus” has added or saved just under 2.4 million jobs — whether private or public — at a cost (to date) of $666 billion. That’s a cost to taxpayers of $278,000 per job.

In other words, the government could simply have cut a $100,000 check to everyone whose employment was allegedly made possible by the “stimulus,” and taxpayers would have come out $427 billion ahead."

 

Enjoy your fourth taxpayers!

 

WHAT HAPPENED AND IS HAPPENING AT THE CALHOUN NUCLEAR PLANT?

"The plant is still dry," "Everything is still safe."-Mike Jones, Senior Media Specialist 

Hmmm, not exactly reassuring. But, it's what you would expect from the PR person from the Omaha Public Power District. But, is the Obama administration being "transparent" with what is actually happening at the flooded nuclear plant?  The photo above is not reassuring either. Here is another take:

"A shocking report prepared by Russia’s Federal Atomic Energy Agency (FAAE) on information provided to them by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) states that the Obama regime has ordered a “total and complete” news blackout relating to any information regarding the near catastrophic meltdown of the Fort Calhoun Nuclear Power Plant located in Nebraska.



According to this report, the Fort Calhoun Nuclear Plant suffered a “catastrophic loss of cooling” to one of its idle spent fuel rod pools on 7 June after this plant was deluged with water caused by the historic flooding of the Missouri River which resulted in a fire causing the Federal Aviation Agency (FAA) to issue a “no-fly ban” over the area." -The Nation

While I am also skeptical of what the Russians might say about many things going on here in the U.S.A. The U.S. media seems to be very uncurious about what's going on at the Calhoun plant too. Especially since the disaster that happened in Fukishima Japan was caused by water. Oh well! Now back to the U.S. media coverage of Ms. Obama and "the girls" in South Africa.

 

TEAM OBAMA ONE YEAR AGO!

How soon they forget:

"OBAMA, BIDEN DECLARE “RECOVERY SUMMER”: Vice President Biden today will kick off “Recovery Summer,” a six-week-long push designed to highlight the jobs accompanying a surge in stimulus-funded projects to improve highways, parks, drinking water and other public works. Biden will present President Obama with a report laying out a spike in stimulus activity this summer, and how it will contribute to a steady climb to a total of 3.5 million Recovery Act jobs by the end of the year. Biden, Obama and other administration officials will travel to more than two dozen Recovery Act project sites in coming weeks. Tomorrow, the president will travel to Columbus, Ohio, to mark the groundbreaking of the 10,000th Recovery Act road project, around Nationwide Children’s Hospital. On Monday, Biden will travel to Midland, Mich., for the groundbreaking of the new Dow Kokam advanced battery manufacturing facility."- POLITICO

OBAMA IS HALFWAY THERE

Hard to tell if a New York Times article is just a PR piece for the Obama administration or a chronicle of a REAL effort by the Obama Administration to start to enforce our immigration laws. But, hopefully it will have a deterrent effect to those businesses that hire illegal immigrants. But, the article also shows that the Obama Administration does the job only halfway: Here are the money quotes:

"But at the arraignment days later in federal court here, no immigrant workers stood before the judge. The only criminal defendants were the owners, Mark Evenson and his son Christopher, and an accountant who worked with them, Diane Ingrid Strehlow. If the Evensons are convicted on all charges against them of tax fraud and harboring illegal workers, they each could face more than 80 years in jail."

I would hope those businesses and their accountants who do try to evade the law do some serious time along with some severe financial financial penalties.  In this case the IRS should also come down hard on them:

"The two of them, who are brothers, said they came to the United States from Mexico in the 1990s. Both had worked most of the time since in Chuy’s restaurants. The eldest, Alejandro Díaz Ojeda, 36, learned to cook the Chuy’s menu. Then he taught his brother, Javier, who is 30. The brothers said they had been treated well. “I became very fond of the company,” Javier said.
Their experience, however, suggests how the Evensons kept their menu prices famously low. The brothers said they were paid an hourly wage — Javier made $9.50 after 14 years — by payroll check for the first 40 hours a week. Any overtime was paid with a different check, with no taxes deducted and no higher rate, they said. Both brothers said they often worked 70 hours a week.

It seems these brothers were not only working here illegally but, evading taxes also! But, they were let go scott free while they pursue their attempt to get citizenship. WTF! I'd like to not pay taxes on any hours I worked after 40 for 14 years! I guess only illegal immigrants can get away with that without the IRS coming after them. File that under "Hola suckers".

REMEMBERING GIL SCOTT-HERON

Back in the eighties and nineties I was an activist fighting the Shoreham Nuclear Power Plant. Those were the pre Chenolbyl and Fukishima days. It was truly an epic battle that ultimately we who were against the plant won. During those days Gil Scott-Heron's song WE ALMOST LOST DETRIOT was part of the musical battle cry we fighting nuclear plants used in the fight. Gil Scott Heron died yesterday at age 62 from self inflicted drug wounds.  Sad but, I will always remember his haunting rendition of the song and the book of the same name by John G. Fuller.  RIP Gil Scott Heron and thank you.


Gil Scott Heron said "the revolution will not be televised" but, he never said anything about disasters concerning nuclear power. Like what happened at the Japananese plants whose hydrogen explosions were seen by hundreds of millions of people around the globe.

TAKING OUT THE TRASH WITH BARNEY FRANK

Always good to check the news on Saturday that's when the important news is published that could be embarrising to the government and various politicians. It's called "taking out the trash" Release the stories on Friday (or say right before a holiday weekend like today) in the hopes that the people won't notice as they get ready for the weekend.  Today's Washington Post has an item concerning Fannie Mae's  favorite Congressman Barney "bailout" Frank.  It seems the Associated Press and the Washington Post made sure this little conflict of interest item does not get to much of a high profile and notice:

"WASHINGTON — Rep. Barney Frank says he helped his then-domestic partner land a job with Fannie Mae in the 1990s while Frank was serving on the House panel overseeing the mortgage company."-Washington Post

The Washington Post buried this item in the lower left hand corner of page A7. How long do the American people have to put up with corruption of politicans like Barney Frank?  It seems "reporters" are intimidated by politicians like Frank also.  Which is another reason why journalism is failing the American people these days too!

ABOUT THOSE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS PRESIDENT OBAMA

Following up on President Obama's empty rhetoric speech in El Paso concerning his plans for amnesty for millions of illegal immigrants. Michelle Malkin tears his ideas apart here are some of the money quotes:

"President Obama argues that his comprehensive amnesty plan would boost America’s bottom line. But the open-borders math doesn’t add up. The Congressional Budget Office score of the last DREAM Act package estimates that “the bill would increase projected deficits by more than $5 billion in at least one of the four consecutive 10-year periods starting in 2021.” And that doesn’t include the costs of all the unlimited family members that the millions of DREAM Act beneficiaries would be able to bring to the U.S. A separate cost analysis by the Washington, D.C.-based Center for Immigration Studies concluded that the illegal alien DREAM Act bailout would cost taxpayers $6.2 billion a year and “crowd out” U.S. students in the classroom."

Meanwhile the Obama administration continues to make FAILURE part of the procedure in day to day operations in order to some how "broken" the system is:

"Unfortunately for the law-abiding, there is no Hollywood-Washington-Big Labor lobby to speak for them. While Obama’s homeland security officials hang their “mission accomplished” banner over the border, the feds have barely made a dent in the three-year naturalization application backlog or the 400,000-deportation fugitive problem. Meanwhile, law enforcement witnesses told a House subcommittee last month that border smuggling has grown so out of control that federal prosecutors are simply declining to pursue cases. Cochise County, Arizona Sheriff Larry Dever testified about the feds’ so-called “Turn Back South” policy – which includes lowering thresholds for drug and smuggling prosecutions, and permitting border-crossers at least seven strikes before being charged with immigration misdemeanors. And just last week, the General Accounting Office reported another massive 1.6 million backlog of illegal visa overstayers – a problem exposed by five of the 19 September 11 hijackers who benefited from systemic failure to enforce visa regulations."

That's the Obama plan in a nutshell when it comes to the Federal Government doing something about illegal immigration:

OBAMA & ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION: UNDER WHOSE FLAG?

One wonders if the Obama advance team is just stupid or was it planned that President Obama would give another speech about his plan to offer illegal immingrants amnesty under the backdrop of a huge Mexican flag that flies just across the border from El Paso in Mexico.  Interestingly the flag was taken down after Obama finished his speech.

OBAMA ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION & ANOTHER PUSH FOR AMNESTY

Our Hispandera in chief President Barrack Obama is once again adding to his carbon footprint and traveling down to Texas today to push for "immigration reform". He is once again saying it's time to "fix" our "broken immigration system". What he and others who are pushing for an amnesty for the millions of illegals keep forgetting is:



MEMO TO PRESIDENT OBAMA:

The immigration system is not broken! All it needs is an emphasis on enforcement. Something that the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT is FAILING at. We don't need immigration reform we just need the Federal Government to do it's job. I can find illegal immigrants here in my neighborhood on Long Island the Federal Government should be able to find them too if only you would look.

Obama also wants to pass the "DREAM ACT" where the illegal immigrant children who have benefited from an ill gotten education at U.S. taxpayers expense get the added reward of getting citizenship. File that under WTF?  It would be a better policy to DEPORT THE DREAMERS back to their original countries where they could thrive and that country could benefit from their education. They have already shown they are not exactly model citizens. We should think of this program of repatriating the illegal immigrant students as an "undocumented" Peace Corp program.

Obama is just going down the  amnesty road like so many other dumbcratic liberals. Like Ted Kennedy whose words over the years show how wrong this Liberal thinking on illegal immgration is:

1965: "The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants. It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission. It will not cause American workers to lose their jobs."


1986: "This amnesty will give citizenship to only 1.1 to 1.3 million illegal aliens. We will secure the borders henceforth. We will never again bring forward another amnesty bill like this."


2007: "Now it is time for action. 2007 is the year we must fix our broken system."

What the late Ted Kennedy and President Obama don't seem to understand that the American people are not buying this nonsense anymore!

OSAMA IS NOT THE ONLY THING THAT'S DEAD!

I can not remember the last time I picked up and read an article from the New York Times.  A new documentary called PAGE ONE is coming out that looks at one year at the New York Times. Looking at the trailer I think it will show the denial that is occurring in much of the old media organizations. News organizations like the New York Times are in the same place network radio was in the nineteen fifties. They can't believe that they are not relevant anymore. When someone like Sohaib Athar can tweet about the raid on the Osama Bin Ladin's compound Sunday before a New York Times reporter based in Pakistan has even woken up and picked up their phone the handwriting is on the wall. Hell, I was blogging in China on a boat floating down the Yangstee River in 2005. I even think I got a question from Brian Stelter (now at the New York Times) about it when he was a student at Towson University and writing TV Newser at the time. Between, bloggers, tweets and You Tube one can get a pretty good idea of what is going on without the bias of the Liberal editors getting in the way. Every individual can decide what news is relevant for them and not have to wait for the 10:30 editors meeting at the New York Times to make that decision. That is a good thing for society but, unfortunately not for old media organizations like the New York Times.

OBAMA MAKING STUFF UP AGAIN!

President Obama was caught making stuff up again. This time it was his reasoning for FINALLY releasing his long form birth certificate which he said he decided to do two weeks ago. Jack Tapper at ABC News much to his credit actually does some journalism and looks at the facts. Here is the money quote:

"during that entire week the dominant news story wasn’t about these huge, monumental choices that we’re going to have to make as a nation. It was about my birth certificate. And that was true on most of the news outlets that were represented here.”_President Obama

But the president was wrong.

According to Pew’s Project for Excellence in Journalism, that week the dominant news story was without question the economy. The ridiculous claims about the president’s birth certificate actually was the No. 4 story for the week – receiving about one tenth of the coverage devoted to stories about the economy.

It's good to see there are still some journalists in Washington who are fact checking Obama's statements.

SPEAKING ABOUT EARTH DAY

Gaylord Nelson the Democratic Senator from Wisconsin was one of the principal founders of Earth Day back in 1970.  He was not only concerned about the environment he was also aware of the impact of over population and immigration and how it affects a countries environment too. Unfortunately most of the environmental movement seems to ignore the issue. Nelson did not here is the money quote:

"The bigger the population gets, the more serious the problems become…. We have to address the population issue. The United Nations, with the U.S. supporting it, took the position in Cairo in 1994 that every country was responsible for stabilizing its own population. It can be done. But in this country, it's phony to say "I'm for the environment but not for limiting immigration."- Gaylord Nelson

Roy Beck lays out the numbers and what Nelson was talking about:

BOYCOTT CHIPOTLE: JUST SAY ADIOS WITH YOUR WALLET!

When I work in Washington D.C. I use to sometimes get my lunch at a Chipotle restaurant on Wisconsin Ave. But, I won't stop there again or any of other Chipotle's anymore here's why:

"The hundreds of illegal immigrants recently fired from fast-growing burrito chain Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc had a pretty good run when it came to job security.Not only did some get jobs with fake Social Security numbers and few questions about their immigration status, in some cases they actually told managers point-blank their papers were no good. And they often stayed on for years.Marta, an undocumented worker from Mexico, twice used false Social Security numbers to secure positions at the chain now being audited by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.She was hired with one false Social Security number in 2003 and rehired as a new employee a few years later under a different name with new, but still fake, number.
The second hire, in 2006, came after Marta told her bosses she needed to change her Social Security number because it belonged to someone else and had caused her mortgage application to fail."-Reuters

I'm not going to use my hard earned American dollars to support the corrupt corporate culture of Chipolte and reward their illegal hiring practices. They knew what they were doing. Chipolte made money by hiring cheap illegal immigrants instead of American workers who in these economic times need all the help they can get and that includes American teenagers who as the headlines often point out are finding it hard to find jobs in this economy too. So it's adios to Chipotle for me! The Chipolte motto is "Food with integrity"  but,  I guess that does not include ethical hiring practices! If they can't hire workers legally than I'll use my legal tender elsewhere. I hope others do the same.

IS AP FOLLOWING THE NEW YORK TIMES DOWN THE RATHOLE?

 It seems the Associated Press is following the downward spiral of the New York Times when it comes to fact checking before running stories. The Associated Press was fooled by a bogus press release that General Electric was going to return 3.2 billion dollars to the Treasuary because of bad publicity.  The left leaning journalists and editors who seem to be running "amuck" at AP these days look like they are about to take another "trusted" news organization down the tubes with shoddy journalism.

OBAMA FLIP FLOP

"On Monday, White House spokesman Jay Carney said then-Senator Obama made a mistake when he voted in 2006 against a measure to raise the debt ceiling a $3,500 billion to $8,600 billion. Obama “regrets that vote and thinks it was a mistake,” Carney told reporters at the daily press briefing."-Daily Caller

Yes, The American people know all to well about making mistakes!

HOW THE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN WAS AVERTED

So what really happened behind closed doors:

EAT THE RICH? EAT THIS MICHAEL MOORE!

ATTEMPTS TO STIFLE THE GLOBAL WARMING DEBATE CONTINUE

Seems somebody wants to stifle the global warming debate and make sure that that only one side of the debate is heard. The Minnesoteans for Global Warming website was hit with a DOS (denial of service attack) causing them to temporarily shutdown and move to a different host company. As the song says they got knocked but, they got up again.
