  • "I am one of them", Obama.

    Watch this brief video clip. It requires no comment - Obama in his own words. "I am one of them", Obama. This is supposedly the video that FOX NEWS has been trying to air that is constantly blocked by the administration. Watch this QUICKLY--before it gets pulled-- if your stomach allows it.

  • Audio shows pilot in Hudson collision tuned to wrong frequency

    AOPA ^ | 9/17/2009
    An NTSB audio recording indicates that minutes before a collision between a helicopter and airplane that killed all nine occupants over the Hudson River last month, the pilot of the airplane appears to have misheard the radio frequency for the air traffic control tower he was instructed to communicate with. An air traffic controller instructed the pilot to tune in to the Newark Liberty International Airport frequency, 127.85, but the pilot read back 127.87, and the controller, who was alone in the tower and was having a personal phone call, missed the incorrect read-back.

    To Kill an American You probably missed this in the rush of news, but there was actually a report that someone in Pakistan had published in a newspaper, an offer of a reward to anyone who killed an American, any American. So an Australian dentist wrote an editorial the following day to let everyone know what an American is . So they would know when they found one. (Good one, mate!!!!)

    Sacramento Bee ^ | 4/8/08 | Dan Walters
    When the final vote was tallied in the ornate state Senate chambers that day in 1975, the young, newly elected governor of California celebrated his first big legislative victory. Jerry Brown had urged the Legislature to repeal a tax break for the California oil industry known as the "depletion allowance" – a symbol of his left-of-center, environmentalist image – but the bill's fate was uncertain in the business-friendly Senate. The decisive vote was cast, oddly enough, by a generally pro-business Republican senator from Southern California. And Joe Shell, an independent oil producer from Kern County and former state assemblyman who...

    MEXICAN GOVERNMENT GIVES INSTRUCTIONS, AND MONEY TO ILLEGALS AS THEY ENTER THE US Randy L. Harrington Randy L. Harrington July 7, 2006 PHOENIX—Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio says that his deputies have not made one illegal alien arrest in two weeks. The Mexican Consulate is briefing illegal aliens, and providing them with US cash, and intelligence data designed to defeat Sheriff Arpaio's efforts to combat illegal immigration. Salvadore Enriquez is an illegal alien who arrived in Chandler, Arizona two weeks ago. He has been working steadily from a street corner in Chandler doing day labor jobs. Enriquez said that in...

    PETITION TO THE SENATE AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE UNITED STATES We, the undersigned, citizens of the United States of America, petition you, the members of the Senate and House of Representatives, to state that we, under no circumstances, want you to pass any law containing any provisions whatsoever for guest worker/amnesty for the millions of lawbreaking illegal aliens in our midst. On the contrary, we ask you to pass a law that a) erects an impenetrable barrier along the entire southern border of the United States, from Brownsville, Texas to Imperial Beach, California and b) makes it a...

    Border Patrol revamps hiring Illegal immigrant was on the payroll By Onell R. Soto STAFF WRITER November 20, 2005 For Border Patrol officials, it could scarcely have been more embarrassing. One of their own was an illegal immigrant. And, investigators say, he was using his government-issued truck to smuggle other illegal immigrants into the United States. How could this happen? How could the government agency charged with guarding the nation's borders hire someone in the country illegally? And could it happen again? Border Patrol officials said this month that they hired Oscar Antonio Ortiz in 2002 even though a background...

    San Diego Union Tribune ^ | 5/16/2005 | UNION-TRIBUNE EDITORIAL
    <p>Now we're getting somewhere. For years, members of Congress didn't want to go anywhere near the explosive issue of illegal immigration. Now, Capitol Hill is flooded with competing bills, each claiming to address the problem. They touch on everything from whether illegal immigrants should have drivers' licenses to whether their U.S.-born children should be granted U.S. citizenship. Some proposals are half-baked, and, frankly, some look like they never even made it into the oven.</p>

    Minuteman effort may spread into S.D. region Group plans civilian patrols along border By Leslie Berestein UNION-TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER April 19, 2005 The media attention garnered by the Minuteman Project in Arizona since the beginning of April is inspiring similar projects to combat illegal immigration elsewhere, including one plan to bring civilian patrols to the border south and east of San Diego this summer. An organization formed last year that calls itself Friends of the Border Patrol hopes to gather enough volunteers to patrol from the ocean to the Imperial Valley.

    Knowing when it's time to quit UNION-TRIBUNE February 25, 2005 "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation." – Henry David Thoreau Some of my friends wonder aloud if I am suffering some sort of "midlife crisis." They cannot fathom, for the life of them, why I would retire, in my mid-40s, from my writing job at The San Diego Union-Tribune; why I would forfeit my nationally syndicated column. Well, after nearly 15 years of daily deadlines, writing three to four editorials a week, in addition to a column, this seems as good a time as any to walk...

    The coming class of vets and academia A few nights ago I got home after teaching a late evening class, threw my books in a pile on the couch, poured myself a drink and turned on the late news. I just caught the end of a brief reference to the return of a handful of Marines from Iraq, being confronted by a small but vocal group of protesters. Apparently, the encounter was peaceful and polite. Because the incident brought back more than a few memories (and perhaps because the wine was particularly good), I feel compelled to write. Sooner, perhaps,...

    Slandering Private Ryan – in Fallujah By David D. Perlmutter November 17, 2004 It's an irony that the week that some American television stations pulled "Saving Private Ryan" because of harsh language, many others aired parts of a video that purports to show an American Marine shooting a wounded and unarmed civilian in Fallujah. The link between Steven Spielberg's fictional (but realistic) film about World War II and a real event in the Iraq war is a reminder that, with so few of us having combat experience or studying warfare in school, the historical context of modern combat needs to...
