Ex Whitman Housekeeper: ‘Undocumented’ (Illegal Nannygate) *Video*
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2598667/posts
svcw: “Yea, she lied about her status, was paid $23 per hour and stayed nine years before she was fired when Whitman found out she was illegal........boo frelling hoo.”
[After 9 years she went to Whitman asking her to help get her citizenship because she “did not want to present problems for Whitman’s political career”. Whitman balked, refused and fired her 9 days later.]

rats who hired illegals:

1. Tim Geithner
President Obama’s Treasury Secretary’s nomination of Mr. Geithner very nearly came crashing down after it was learned that he had employed an immigrant housekeeper whose employment authorization document had expired, CNN reported.

2. Nancy Killefer
Obama’s pick as the deputy director of the Office of Management and Budget withdrew her nomination after it was revealed that she did not pay employment taxes for household help for a year and a half, the Chicago Tribune reported.

3. Caroline Kennedy
One of the theories put fort by the New York Times regarding Ms. Kennedy’s abrupt withdrawal from her bid to fill Hillary Rodham Clinton’s Senate seat had it that the daughter of John F. Kennedy failed to pay taxes for a maid.

4. Linda Chavez
President George W. Bush selected Ms. Chavez for the post of secretary of labor, but her nomination was torpedoed after it was learned that Chavez housed an illegal immigrant from Guatemala who she employed as a housekeeper.

5. Bernard Kerik
Bush’s pick to head up the Department of Homeland Security withdrew after revealing that he had not paid taxes for a female undocumented worker he had hired, Fox News reported.

6. Jim Gibbons
The governor of Nevada was accused of hiring an illegal immigrant from Peru as a housekeeper and nanny back in 2006.

7. Zoe Baird
Picked to be Attorney General by Bill Clinton, Baird’s failure to pay taxes for babysitting help, as well as her willingness to hire illegal immigrants, sank her nomination.

8. Kimba Wood
Ms. Wood, Clinton’s choice for a federal judgeship, also came under scrutiny for employing an illegal immigrant for childcare duties. The two events came to be known as “nannygate.”

Napolitano to McCain: Yes, Mexican Cartels Pose Terror Threat to U.S.
[uups — lost link]
(McLiar is pushing her to say the violence is only a problem in the last couple years...looking to cover his pandering butt again?)

In 2009, the U.S. Justice Department declared in its annual National Drug Threat Assessment that the Mexican drug cartels were “the greatest organized crime threat to the United States,” but the U.S. State Department has not listed those cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.

The 2010 National Drug Threat Assessment said that “900,000 criminally active gang members representing approximately 20,000 street gangs” distribute drugs for the Mexican cartels in more than 2,500 American cities.
