Changing Our Country

Changing Our Country

John F. Kennedy wrote a small book in 1958 titled "A Nation of Immigrants" promoting freer immigration policies. It was the blueprint for a law that President Kennedy proposed in 1963, shortly before his assassination, to eliminate racial discrimination inherent in the nation's immigration system.

Two years later, JFK's "A Nation of Immigrants" idea became the The Immigration and Nationality Act Amendments of 1965 pushed through Congress with little fanfare as a tribute to the fallen president by his brothers, Edward and Robert Kennedy.

If we cannot now end our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity." John F. Kennedy

A Nation of Immigrants

You know what? America really is a nation of immigrants. Our parents, aunts and uncles and grandparents come from every country in the world and pretty much we all get along okay. Separatism was allowed in some areas but generally we assimilated with each other quite well.

Marrying each others sons and daughters, working side by side with recent legal immigrants doesn't seem to bother most Americans. From what I've seen in my 56 years we generally attempt to assist the newcomer to assimilate into our communities with ease. During lunch we ask questions about what their life was like in their home country and we tell stories our grandparents told us about what it as like back where our national heritage stemmed from.

Today our life is different. We have illegal aliens coming into our country who are refusing to assimilate and become part of our communities. They are refusing to speak English, demanding that we provide Spanish dialect speaking teachers. Abusing every welfare program that we have is intentional. Flipping their finger at the local cops who patrol their neighborhoods is a sign that they will continue to disobey our laws. Hit and run automobile accidents are so common today that our insurance rates have snowballed out of sight.

Somewhere along the line we were tricked. Yeah, I mean plain ole snookered into believing that what comes from the courtrooms or from Congress just has to be good for our beloved United States of America. We have the hardest damn time believing that another American would do something to intentionally hurt our beautiful country. The definition of "leader and/or leadership" was changed without any public discussion whatsoever.

First was President Nixon and his EPA's long discussions of biological diversity and the need to preserve native plants and animals . That makes sense if you enforce the plan with common sense. We weren't told that common sense would be prohibited from this idea. A multiple-species community doesn't mean what you and I think it does, but that's another subject.

Then out came the hyphenated heritage designations and secular flock titles, Irish-American, Chinese-American, French-American, Philippine-American, English-American,and Irish Catholics, American Jews, etc. This ticked off quite a few people because they had always considered themselves to be Americans first. Their great grandparents were the Irish, came from Ireland and when they were able to qualify for US citizenship, Americans. All descendants of them were just plain old Americans because they were born on America's soil. Many of these foreigners and first term Americans fought and died for America in the Wars. This was what brought our patriotism to the front porches of our homes and Main Street parades on July 4th. Secular divisions? What business is it of any political group what religion you are? As long as it isn't violent, stay out of that persons religious beliefs!

Bring forth the slow dilution and extinction of our Republic.

In the seventies and eighties, national origins, multiculturalism, and diversity became the key terms to the new political organizations and advocacy groups.

Electoral speeches all had to have the words "tolerance of diversity and cross-cultural effectiveness" to be considered acceptable. Politically acceptable speeches now were the only ones permitted to be broadcast on public radio and television stations.

Any subject deemed controversial was prohibited. You are subject to personal and financial discipline for mentioning anything that possibly stigmatizes or victimizes an individual on the basis of race or ethnicity.

Discriminatory admissions policies were used to buffer the mistermed diversity programs, actually separatist. If your heritage was from certain countries you would be admitted to the nations best colleges and universities using a point system. This commitment to ethnic freedom is even more insincere than a politician tromping about shaking hands for re-election votes.

The publicly stated basis of all of this was to cure discriminations of the past 150 years. Any group with self prejudicial beliefs of inferiority, mental or physical disabilities, poverty or lower education levels is eligible to apply for tax dollars free government funds available in dozens of entitlement programs. These politically controversial goals were a winner for the Democrats, so the Republicans decided to get in line with cash baskets of their own. They started promoting new programs, ignoring the past conservative moral traditions of "self responsibility". Today "self responsibility" is considered a fault in a persons character. You are viewed as a problem child who may not stand in line when told to do so.

With both major parties tossing tax dollars free government funds into the air for any all to reach out for, illegal immigration has once again became a national problem for the citizen who pays the bills. Police chiefs are afraid to publicly mention the actual numbers of illegal aliens in their jails fearing the numbers might prompt demonstrations. They have resorted to saying these costs are provided for with tax dollars federal government funds. (just a semi-lie) They keep forgetting to say "partially"! Then the profiling of criminals was outlawed to the detriment of many once reasonably safe cities. An officer must now justify, as if he were on the witness stand, every stop-and-question he undertakes of an illegal alien. There's no such requirement for a stop-and-question of white Americans.

Our current batch of sorry assed politicians in Congress and the Senate consider these entitlement programs woefully underinclusive, denying this giveaway franchise from their cohorts in local politics. So they keep pushing for larger pork barrels in the budgets. Governors are doing their best to keep up with the mad rush to give America away, demanding larger state budgets every term.

While giving speeches, being surrounded by parasites is considered an honor if you are a leader politician. Constitutional commitments to Oaths of Office are disregarded without fear of prosecution, shame or guilt now. Preaching the diversity lie appears to be a sure re-election tactic to the party leaders liars.

Have you ever heard of the word "essentialism" (n) -The practice of categorizing a group based on an artificial social construction that imparts an "essence" of that group, which homogenizes the group and effaces individuality and difference.

Was this part of "The United Nations Agenda 21 Plan"?

The illegal alien population in the United States today is more than twice the total of 1986. By using diversity and "essentialism" our political and judicial leader liars have once again separated America into racial and ethnic groups.

Was this part of "The Plan"? I think so. My reasoning for this is because under federal guidance we are looking at our neighbors and co-workers wondering if the grandparents or parents perhaps overstayed a visitors visa fifteen or twenty years ago. We are wondering if we can trust someone who speaks with an accent, could they be a criminal and just hasn't been arrested yet. Should we report our suspicians to the Border Patrol.

We have been intentionally divided in hyphenated heritage congregations and secular flocks. The reason for dividing us into small groups who quickly question the motives of all other groups is to make it difficult for us to join together and fight a common problem. Having ten small uncoordinated groups threatening you is much easier to deal with than having one large determined group, with a common purpose, surrounding your home or office.

Public resources are being spent on, confining, investigating crimes, injuries and deaths of illegal aliens. Hispanic and Latino political organization advocacy groups are demanding driving rights for themselves, criminal aliens. The security of your state drivers license identification has diminished because of nationwide counterfeiting and corrupt DMV employees.

Do not be surprised if Homeland Security says it cannot stop this from continuing and America must have a National Identification Card Program.

We are under attack by two predators, illegal aliens and ineffective and/or corrupt government officials.

How can government officials ignore the massive invasion of illegal immigrants. President Bush refuses to speak on the subject. According to a recent poll, 80+% of American citizens consider this to be a greater threat than terrorists to our national sovereignty and financial security.

Could this be a challenge to see if the once proud American citizens will actually fight for their own national sovereignty and financial security on American soil? Our troops don't have any difficulty fighting on foreign soil for the benefit of foreigners.

Mexico and 300 other nations send their lower class citizens to America for us to provide for their education, medical and income via jobs at the cost to American taxpayers and jobs.

The "Slide" has become a socialistic free fall.

The Republican Socialist Party has made many changes without informing it's membership under this president.

Our political leaders liars are refusing to:

"Why are so many immigration threads being sent to the backroom?"

I don't understand the move to the backroom either. I thought that was reserved for when a thread got too heated to be rated G or PG any more. I don't see that on this thread although I have on occasion seen the immigration threads get a little carried away. Perhaps the moderator can answer that question.

Unfortunately, I think it is going to take another big attack before the people in this country decide to start screaming about the borders. Right now I fear that most of them think 911 was a fluke, a one time occurrence, and that it probably won't happen again.

This can be evidenced even on this forum. When a warning is issued, the same guys rush to the thread to make fun of the entire homeland security terror warnings, etc. They are more worried that they might lose a right than they are about our security.

If the American people would get angry enough, and take this seriously enough in great numbers, THEN whoever is in office would do something. Until then, it will stay status quo.

The dims want the borders open because of the fact that the immigrants generally vote democratic, and because they are so brainwashed that we are a "global community" and to be nationalist is evil.

The Pubbies know that if they even think about trying to get real tough , the outcry will be deafening from the left, and frankly, they most likely feel our borders are so long it is nearly impossible to keep them from coming across.

The INS was almost totally rendered useless during the Clinton administration, and we all know why. Now Homeland security is playing catchup trying to even find out who is here illegally much less where they are. And frankly, politics enter into the equation with the pubbies also, because they also want to get elected, naturally.

Sorry for the length, but I do think it is important to realize that it is up to the people in this country to get serious enough about the illegal alien crisis we have to get the politicians to move off their PC butts and do something. They will have to feel their positions are in danger if they do not. Until then, we are just sitting ducks, no matter who is in office, although, history will tell us the dims are much worse on this issue.

Don't jump on someone just because they are rich. I know lots of folks who became wealthy and maintained their honesty and integrity while doing so.

Wealthy politicians do seem to carry the burden of having to "open the books" to the public, where others don't.

Of course, in my opinion, anyone who is wealthy and runs for office is just looking for the ultimate "power over the people" rush.

"All men having power ought to be distrusted to a certain degree."
-- James Madison in The Federalist

"Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide."
-- John Adams, letter to John Taylor, April 15, 1814

I think the suicidal days are upon us. Refusing to admit the illness will result in our death as a democracy.

Great Rant! I think you're correct in mentioning the UN's Agenda 21; that all started around 1981 in La Paz. It is a complex agenda that compromises our sovereignty one more time.

The article I wrote doesn't discuss my views of terroism, only our Presidents lack of concern for maintaining America as a Republic.

To close the borders because of a terrorist attack will not contain the preoccupation with socialist fantasy, i.e. progressive Dream Programs that are currently underway.

Don't jump on someone just because they are rich.

I wasn't jumping on anyone for being rich. I was responding to part of what you said in Post 30.

"It could be "favors" are owed or even a little blackmailing going on. My deepest suspicion has to do with cold hard cash. The RNC was bragging about how Bushs' re-election campaign funds are spilling out of the bucket. I don't recall how many millions he has available but theres quite a few. So, are corporations donating to the fund in order to get their names onto the Iraq contact list?"
The article I referred to was about the connections the Bush family has to wealthy ("cold hard cash") businessmen, a lot of them Mexican nationals. That could be where some of Bush's contributions are coming from. It could also explain Bush's non-action when it comes to Mexico. Maybe it's his family ties to old or current business partners that keeps him from doing what I believe he should do, which is to close the borders.

Anyway, it was just a thought (or a bit of a little conspiracy theory).

Call from RNC

That is to funny!!!

I have been getting requests from Club for Growth, which at one time I really liked. But until they start asking the candiates, whether they will do something about the illegal invasion, I will not donate any more money to any candiate.
They are asking for money for a Californian , State Senator Rico Oller, running for the open seat of Rep Doug Ose.

"I just wish the sheeple in this country would realize what's happening."

I don't want the "stand in line" sheeples, I'm looking for people who will fight to stand at the front. They are the only ones who will make the effort to educate the ignorant. Being afraid that you might lose a few 'friends' for speaking your mind is considered too great a risk for too many on this website. I'll follow the crowd, eunuch and coward come to mind very frequently when reading their posts.

With his father behind him I doubt that any illegal funds are making it to the re-election fund. If there are any I would presume they are being used privately to promote him.
