If a GOP candidate sought votes from a white group calling itself the "National Council of the Race," he'd rightly be shunned as a racist. But let the Democrats do the same and they're called "progressive." Hillary and Obama appeared before the National Council of La Raza ("The Race"), a radical Latino group. Obama pandered by saying he'd "walked the walk" for amnesty and would revive the sunken immigration bill that went down in flames in the Senate. "We will make this a priority and get it done," he said. Hillary buys into the idea that the bill's end was brought on by what La Raza calls a "wave of hate" and hired a top La Raza official, Raul Yzaguirre, as her financial co-chair. La Raza is not only the loudest proponent of illegal immigration in the U.S. It fosters ethnic separatism in schools. It runs Hugo Chavez-type handouts for indigents and refuses to renounce fringe groups like MEChA, whose own slogan is derived from from the rhetoric of Cuban dictator Fidel Castro: "Through the race, everything; outside the race, nothing." Today's La Raza is a $52 million not-for-profit group that that lives off congressional earmarks and shakes down big corporations like Wal Mart and Bank of America for financial support while at the same time making illegal immigration and ethnic separatism its leading agenda.

(b) Exceptions: Subsection (a) shall not apply with respect to the following benefits:
(1) Emergency medical services under title XIX of the Social Security Act.
(2) Short-term emergency disaster relief.
(3) Assistance or benefits under the National School Lunch Act.
(4) Assistance or benefits under the Child Nutrition Act of 1966.
(5) Public health assistance for immunizations and, if the Secretary of Health and Human Services determines that it is necessary to prevent the spread of a serious communicable disease, for testing and treatment of such disease.
Basically, it prohibits benefits to illegals except, it also grants benefits to illegals like lunch programs, medical, generic ‘disaster relief’, etc.. are you for granting these things to illegals?
You can say by voting Nay that he voted to give benefits, but by voting Yea for this bill, if you look at the exceptions, you are also voting to give benefits to illegals.. This amendment is a lose-lose and no matter how someone voted, the same thing could be said..
Example #2
S1156- This is one of the worst examples of misrepresentation of votes on their site (specifically Fred Thompson in this case) Fred Thompson actually voted Nay on S1156 ( http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=105&session=1&vote=00265 ) But NumbersUSA lists him as voting for it.. instead of looking at this vote on the actual bill, they ignored that and took one procedural vote to move it from one committee to another and labeled it as supporting the bill..
Example #3
Several Senators are listed as voting for S1664, however, S1664 never made it to a vote, it was killed in committee: ( http://www.vote-smart.org/issue_keyvote_detail.php?cs_id=V907&can_id=53292 )- again, they take a procedural vote to move a bill from one committee to another committee and label that as supporting the bill.
How about Mr. Beck.. in my mind he is a lot like Lou Dobbs.. he says a few things that are right, and people follow everything he says without examination of motive or accuracy. Mr. Beck himself associates himself with liberal causes:

Just because the guy in the van offers you your favorite candy, doesn’t mean he has your best interests at heart.. Investigate everything.. especially those who tell you what you want to hear..
I encourage everyone to investigate for themselves..I can keep going adding bills and showing how they are twisting things for their own agenda, but people won't believe unless they find it themselves..
Question all; blindly follow nothing- even if it sounds good.

Always question the guy in the van offering you candy!
..this isn’t damning, but it sure is funny.. they rate Al Gore A-:

From one of the links you posted:
The underlying message is that the United States could address such related problems as traffic congestion, high energy prices, pollution, and oil-related wars if it only shut off the main source of population growth.
I'm not sure what the problem is with that. Before President Reagan and the 1980s, the environment was not a partisan issue. Nixon passed more environmental legislation than any other president, and Teddy Roosevelt was a great conservationist.

I'm truly curious if you follow your own advice when it comes to a very liberal, globalist, and anti-U.S. sovereignty president and his friends in the Senate. Do you advise others to examine Bush's motives? Or is it because they have Rs behind their names, is it all right to blindly follow?
I don’t know about other states, but they are always spot on in their report cards in my state.
Hey, don’t joke. The sad thing is that all those Caucasian organazitions may come to pass, and what a sad day that would be.
LOL!!
Maybe Hillary is going after the Latino vote so aggresively because she knows that there’s a vote fraud machine already there that will work in her favor.
S.AMDT.1311 they dock Kyle for voting against it, but they ignore why- the Rider added on by Biden to exempt the ‘Return of Talent’ program..
Was this before or after Kyl betrayed us, lol?
LA RAZA = KLAN WITH A TAN
Our nation is too damn stupid to survive much longer as a superpower.
BS. Do you have specific examples to support that assertion?
That's because the two issues are linked. The LEGAL immigration policies of this country must be changed, e.g., chain migration, visa lottery program, anchor babies, etc. And data show how legal immigration policies impact illegal immigration: Two Sides of the Same Coin: The Connection Between Legal and Illegal Immigration
Brownback voted for the 2006 Senate amnesty bill and flip-flopped at the last moment on the 2007 bill when he voted against cloture.
Kabar...another home run. More food for thought...
Kabar...let’s keep the cursing at a minimum. My kids read this site.
