It is about time! Ted Cruz Seeks to Ban Illegal Immigrants in U.S. from Citizenship

We need to stop the pretense, it is about illegal aliens from Mexico. What word in "illegal alien" stumps the rest of congress and the ridiculous press. That’s why they keep coming up with fake euphemisms. 
It is about time someone in Washington D.C. decided to help protect our borders!

Ted Cruz Seeks to Ban Illegal Immigrants in U.S. from Citizenship - US News and World Report

Cruz's amendment would prevent 11 million currently here from earning legal status

By REBEKAH METZLER   May 8, 2013

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, a newly elected Republican with a penchant for making headlines, filed an amendment that would bar undocumented immigrants currently living in the United States from ever earning citizenship.

There are an estimated 11 million people living in the country illegally, and a bipartisan immigration reform measure would create a pathway to citizenship over the course of 13 years by requiring those people to pay penalties and back taxes, as well as learn English. Conservatives opposed to reform decry the path as amnesty, but Democrats say they will not support reform that does not cope with the immigrants already living in the U.S.

Cruz also filed amendments that he says would "strengthen border security measures; reform the high-skilled temporary worker program; modernize, streamline and expand legal immigration; and prohibit federal, state or local entitlement benefits for those here illegally."

Don't Let the Facts Get in the way! Obama’s Benghazi Propagandist

A young White House speechwriter may be responsible for concocting the official lies about last September’s deadly terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya.
The Obama administration’s rapidly unravelling narrative about what happened at the U.S. consulate in Libya’s second-largest city may have been cooked up by creative writer Ben Rhodes, the president’s 30-something Deputy National Security Advisor for Strategic Communications and Speechwriting.
The origin of the administration’s desperate election-season fabrications may come up today as a congressional committee hears from three government whistleblowers who are expected to contradict the administration’s version of the events of Sept. 11, 2012.
There is little doubt now that the Obama White House twisted the facts for partisan political advantage.
Stephen F. Hayes of the Weekly Standard reports that the CIA’s talking points about what happened in Benghazi were manipulated by senior Obama administration officials as they “knowingly misled the country” in the days following the attacks.
That fog of misinformation was apparently calculated to deflect blame away from the Obama administration last September and October long enough to get an embattled president with an embarrassing national security record reelected.
Hayes published a timeline produced by the office of Director of National Intelligence James R. Clapper that showed significant alterations were made to the talking points a month and a half before last year’s presidential election.

Multiculti U. Screws Us!

The racial divide is perpetuated by lies from schools as soon as students start kindergarden and especially in Head Start. m/r

Multiculti U. by Heather Mac Donald, City Journal Spring 2013

The budget-strapped University of California squanders millions on mindless diversity programs.

In the summer of 2012, as the University of California reeled from one piece of bad budget news to another, a veteran political columnist sounded an alarm. Cuts in state funding were jeopardizing the university’s mission of preserving the “cultural legacy essential to any great society,” Peter Schrag warned in the Sacramento Bee:

Would we know who we are without knowing our common history and culture, without knowing Madison and Jefferson and Melville and Dickinson and Hawthorne; without Shakespeare, Milton and Chaucer; without Dante and Cervantes; without Charlotte Brontë and Jane Austen; without Goethe and Molière; without Confucius, Buddha, Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr.; without Mozart, Rembrandt and Michelangelo; without the Old Testament; without the Gospels; without Plato and Aristotle, without Homer and Sophocles and Euripides, without Tolstoy and Dostoyevsky; without Gabriel García Márquez and Toni Morrison?

Schrag’s appeal to the value of humanistic study was unimpeachable. It just happened to be laughably ignorant about the condition of such study at the University of California. Stingy state taxpayers aren’t endangering the transmission of great literature, philosophy, and art; the university itself is. No UC administrator would dare to invoke Schrag’s list of mostly white, mostly male thinkers as an essential element of a UC education; no UC campus has sought to ensure that its undergraduates get any exposure to even one of Schrag’s seminal thinkers (with the possible exception of Toni Morrison), much less to America’s founding ideas or history.

This Raid of a low level "Right Wing" Militia member has a "Too Convenient" Appearance - FBI: Raid of Minn. home disrupted planned terror attack; police say suspect has militia ties

This may be completely legitimate, but the timing of this highly publicised raid on a small time, anti-government, fringe militia member has the appearance of the administration looking much too hard for "balancing" against the Muslim Terror Bomber's in Boston. 
Here was an anti-government, fringe recluse who had not done anything, yet. But he gets raided. 
It looks too, too convenient as a thirst quencher for the administration and the press who were so eager for a Right-Wing Terrorist, after they were so visibly disappointed that the Boston Marathon Bomber's were Islamic Terrorists. 
The government's multitude of law enforcement agencies dropped the many balls handed to them to be on-the-look-out for the Boston Bomber's. Here is law enforcement's very meager way for them to show they are "on the ball" as it were. m/r

FBI: Raid of Minn. home disrupted planned terror attack; police say suspect has militia ties - The Washington Post

By Associated Press, Published: May 6 (the AP still has no clue what year it is)

MINNEAPOLIS — FBI officials said Monday they foiled a terrorist attack being planned in a small western Minnesota town, but they offered no details about the exact targets of the attack — or the motive of the man accused of having a cache of explosives and weapons in a mobile home.

The FBI said “the lives of several local residents were potentially saved” with the arrest of Buford Rogers, 24, who made his first appearance Monday in U.S. District Court in St. Paul on one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm. ...

“The FBI believed there was a terror attack in its planning stages, and we believe there would have been a localized terror attack, and that’s why law enforcement moved quickly to execute the search warrant on Friday to arrest Mr. Rogers,” FBI spokesman Kyle Loven said Monday.

He said the investigation is ongoing, and agents are looking at the case as one of domestic terrorism.

Pritzker has been nominated to the Commerce department! PRITZKER'S BANK FAILURE: INVESTORS GOT PAID, DEPOSITORS AND TAXPAYERS FLEECED

Funny Money, Obama-dollars and Spoils!

"To top it off, now that Pritzker has been nominated to the Commerce department, while the Times along with other papers around the country find themselves having to cover Pritzker’s failed bank deal, they are incorrectly reporting the Pritzkers paid back $460 million."

PRITZKER'S BANK FAILURE: INVESTORS GOT PAID, DEPOSITORS AND TAXPAYERS FLEECED

by REBEL PUNDIT 7 May 2013,

By her own admission in a 2008 Q & A with the New York Times, Secretary of Commerce nominee Penny Pritzker acknowledged as many as 1600 depositors lost $6000 on average--or roughly $10 million overall--due to her family’s Superior Bank failure. The losses were the result of years of subprime lending and overvaluing its residual interests after failing to discount to present values, future cash flows that were subject to credit losses.

According to the U.S. General Accounting Office:

Superior Bank did not properly value the residual interest assets it reported on its financial statements. Since those assets represented payments that were to be received in the future only after credit losses were reimbursed, they needed to be discounted at an appropriate risk adjusted rate, in order to recognize that a promise to pay in the future was worth less than a current payment…

The result was that Superior Bank reported assets, earnings, and capital that were far in excess of their true values…When Superior finally applied the appropriate valuation techniques and related accounting to the residual interests in early 2001, at the urging of the OTS (Office of Thrift Supervision), Superior was forced to take a write off against its capital and became “significantly undercapitalized.”

The Pritzkers purchased Superior Bank (formerly the failed Lyons Savings Bank), with a New York real estate developer, Alvin Dwarman in 1988 from the federal government for a modest $42.5 million and $645 million in tax credits. Penny Pritzker then became Superior Bank’s first chairman before becoming director of its holding company Coast to Coast Financial holdings.

Under Pritzker, the bank’s composite rating had initially improved, and Superior began paying dividends of approximately $200.8 million to its holding companies. Because of Superiors' improved status, by 1993 it required less oversight from regulators.

In March of that year, Superior “executed its first securitization of subprime mortgage loans and began booking residual interests on its balance,” the GAO report said. An OTS examination in 1994 reported that Superior’s continued investment in the residual interests originated by Superior exposed them to a higher risk, and by 1995 Superior began an even risker subprime auto lending division.

Does Obama share his views? William Ayers says Weather Underground, Boston bombings not same

It looks like it, at least in part. To Obama's viewpoint, there were no Muslim Terrorist's in Boston or Fort Hood, just "lone-wolves" and work-place criminals. How long is this absurdity to continue? 
 Ayers (like Obama) is unrepentant, full of double-talk and admires HIMSELF! m/r

Bill Ayers, the 1960s radical who went on to become a college professor and associate of President Obama, said Saturday the bombings he helped the Weather Underground carry out to protest the Vietnam War bear no resemblance to the deadly Boston Marathon attack - and glossed over the fact that his group's bombs killed three fellow terrorists and have been linked to the murder of a San Francisco police officer.

“How different is the shooting in Connecticut from shooting at a hunting range?” Ayers told a reporter who asked him to compare the incidents after Ayers spoke at a commemoration of the 1970 incident at Kent State University, where Ohio National Guard members killed four students during a protest. “Just because they use the same thing, there’s no relationship at all.”

Ayers went on to accuse Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., who spent five years in a POW camp, of murdering civilians in the war, lament the deaths of two fellow Weather Underground members – skipping over the fact that they blew themselves up while trying to make bombs – and painted his actions as a heroic bid to end U.S. involvement in Vietnam. Ayers was the keynote speaker at the event, which drew an estimated 350 people on the university’s Commons, according to the Akron Beacon Journal. But it was after Ayers made his prepared remarks that he bristled over a possible comparison of terrorist acts separated by more than four decades.

“To conflate a group of fundamentalist people [in Boston] who are nihilistic in some way with a group of people who spent their lives trying to oppose the murder of 6,000 people a week … and still the killing went on. And still the killing went on. What would you have done?” Ayers said. “There’s no equivalence [with Boston]. Property damage. That’s what we did.”

Former Gov. Bill Richardson (D) said Monday his remark that Sen. Ted Cruz (R., Texas) should not be “defined as a Hispanic” was “misinterpreted” in an interview with Fox News:

SHEPARD SMITH: Over the weekend, you said that the freshman senator out of Texas, Ted Cruz, shouldn’t be able to call himself Hispanic. What was that?

RICHARDSON: No, that was a misunderstanding. I said that he shouldn’t be defined as a Hispanic. I’m a Hispanic. I don’t define myself just as a Hispanic, so that was misinterpreted.

Richardson made the remark in an online interview with ABC News Sunday

Then Fear Obama, says he, " The Only Thing We Need to Fear Is Fear of Tyranny"

Obama: The Only Thing We Need to Fear Is Fear of Tyranny | National Review Online

By  Jonah Goldberg

May 6, 2013

On Sunday, President Obama delivered the commencement address at Ohio State University. He once again gave voice to the essential element of his philosophy of government:

Unfortunately, you’ve grown up hearing voices that incessantly warn of government as nothing more than some separate, sinister entity that’s at the root of all our problems; some of these same voices also doing their best to gum up the works. They’ll warn that tyranny is always lurking just around the corner. You should reject these voices. Because what they suggest is that our brave and creative and unique experiment in self-rule is somehow just a sham with which we can’t be trusted.
We have never been a people who place all of our faith in government to solve our problems; we shouldn’t want to. But we don’t think the government is the source of all our problems, either. Because we understand that this democracy is ours. And as citizens, we understand that it’s not about what America can do for us; it’s about what can be done by us, together, through the hard and frustrating but absolutely necessary work of self-government. And, Class of 2013, you have to be involved in that process.
The founders trusted us with this awesome authority. We should trust ourselves with it, too. Because when we don’t, when we turn away and get discouraged and cynical, and abdicate that authority, we grant our silent consent to someone who will gladly claim it. That’s how we end up with lobbyists who set the agenda; and policies detached from what middle-class families face every day; the well-connected who publicly demand that Washington stay out of their business — and then whisper in government’s ear for special treatment that you don’t get.
That’s how a small minority of lawmakers get cover to defeat something the vast majority of their constituents want. That’s how our political system gets consumed by small things when we are a people called to do great things — like rebuild a middle class, and reverse the rise of inequality, and repair the deteriorating climate that threatens everything we plan to leave for our kids and our grandkids.

As Jonathan Tobin notes over at Commentary, Obama deploys the usual goon squad of strawmen here, with a false choice or two thrown in for good measure.
