Addressing A Question About Ohio Issue 3 [UPDATED]

Yesterday I received an email which contained many questions about Issue 3. In my reply, I (and I know this is difficult to believe) confused a few things and may have led the recipient astray. So I’ve decided to print the email here and attempt a second, and more accurate, reply.

Via email -

I cannot find a breakdown of the 34,000 jobs. There should be about 8,000 per casino. Estimates seem to be: 1000 house maintenance (jobs for Ohioans); 2000 jobs for Ohioans for casino construction (2year positions); 500 professional (dealers, machine operators, slot technicians, odds calculators, executive staff, lawyers, odds calculators, etc. (non-Ohio jobs hired by Casino operators who can be trusted and relied on; 1000 jobs in the communities (supplies, food cleaning, repair, etc.) jobs for Ohioans. This adds up to 4,000 jobs for Ohioans and 4500 total jobs What are the other 3500 jobs per casino? Another thing that bothers me is that Ohio only gets 33 1/3 per cent of the winnings. If the winnings are $1.0 billion, this would not cover the needs of the Ohio deficit. How can we guarantee Ohio will meet its budget needs? Any increase in direct taxes would guarantee that the deficit would be covered. I do NOT like tax increases, but a tax increase would guarantee that Ohio needs were met. Indeed, non-gamblers could probably procure more for the Ohio economy by spending their money on tv’s play stations. movies ball games and other pleasures than Ohio will get from the 33 13% of the casino’s declared earnings. We cannot guarantee casino winnings. Also, many patrons of nearby, out of state gamblers would remain loyal to their old casinos; they were like homes to them, that is where their friends gamble. Until I get answers to this breakdown, I must vote NO. If you can give me this breakdown, my friends and I could possibly vote YES, but not without the breakdown.
What are your thoughts on casinos? I feel that overall, Ohio gains nothing and loses much
Thomas
[last name redacted]

In my initial reply, I confused thousands with hundreds and may have misled “Thomas”. So here it is…

The breakdown that I’ve been able to get is limited. Thomas’ outline of actual casino workers seems to be probable. But without actual numbers of job assignments, I cannot say for sure. However, his central question seems to me (if I’m looking at it correctly) is the difference between the numbers of casino workers and the touted 34,000 jobs as stated in the University of Cincinnati study.

It is simple. At no time has anyone promised that 34,000 workers would be employed at the same time. The numbers not accounted for by Thomas in his speculative analysis are construction jobs. Somebody has to build the danged things.

The next item that seemed to concern Thomas was the 33 1/3% tax on winnings. As Thomas says, “… Ohio only gets 33 1/3 per cent of the winnings.” ONLY?!? If you had a dollar and had to give another person 1/3 of that dollar you’d be kind of pissed wouldn’t you? How much does Thomas want the state to get? The whole dollar?!? I think 33 1/3% of winnings is MORE than fair.

The next item up for bids, Thomas seemed further concerned on the tax issue. He said, “If the winnings are $1.0 billion, this would not cover the needs of the Ohio deficit.” This is a two part item even though it reads as if it were one.

First, the $1 billion number that has been thrown around is the estimated drain on the Ohio economy that is entering neighboring states as gamblers from Ohio leave the Buckeye State to engage in legal gambling. That is a total amount of money leaving, not an estimate of winnings. By building 4 casinos here in Ohio it is expected that Ohio would retain an estimated $1 billion that is currently flowing into Indiana, West Virginia, the DPRM*, and Pennsylvania NOT as Thomas assumes add up to the amount of winnings that Ohio can tax.

Ohio participates in a multi-state lottery known as Mega Millions. The state of Ohio receives from a winner of a Mega Millions jackpot – who resides in the state of Ohio – 6% of that jackpot in taxes. I’m sure that we can all agree that 33 1/3% in tax revenue to the various authorities within the state of Ohio is far greater that the 6% that is currently collected by the state in other games.

Secondly, his question about offsetting the budget deficit. To this I believe I was clear to Thomas in my reply via email. However, I will attempt to illustrate it again here for everyone to see.

Nobody has EVER made a claim that the tax revenue generated after these casinos are built will offset the out of control spending in Columbus. Democrats are Democrats and they have never met a tax or spending program that they don’t like (with the exception of defense spending that is). Doubt this fact? Just take some time to study Detroit – and the entire DPRM* for that matter – and you will see what I’m mean.

Ted Strickland is going to continue to spend more than is coming in because that is what Democrats do. They are overly concerned about fighting a futile war on poverty instead of addressing issues which can actually improve the lives of many who are impoverished. Democrats have a habit of believing that their “Robin Hood” mentality of taking from those who have in order to give it to those who have-not (after a reduction for government handling that is) in the form of programs that are inefficient and wasteful. Rather than improving business conditions in the state of Ohio which would lead to more jobs in the state of Ohio, Ted Strickland would rather increase hand-out programs and make asinine arbitrary mandates on class room sizes in education. Whether Issue 3 is approved or not, Ohio is still going to have a budget shortfall. The question I pose to Thomas is, how bad do you want that shortfall to be? If people are working in Ohio on building these 4 facilities, they will be paying taxes they are not currently paying. Isn’t that the goal? I thought was.

Thomas next asks, “How can we guarantee Ohio will meet its budget needs? Any increase in direct taxes would guarantee that the deficit would be covered.”

I’m sorry Thomas, but if you think that increases in direct taxes are a way of guaranteeing Ohio will make its budgetary needs you are living in the same fantasy world Barack Obama and Congressional Democrats live in when they suggest that increased taxes in a recession is the way to end a recession. It has been proven time and again that when you increase tax rates on anything, government revenue declines. Taxes are a tool to dissuade behavior. So, if you tax more income, those who can control the amount they earn will earn less. Those who create jobs, will not create jobs. It is a simple matter of economics and a fact of life. His suggestion (as an example) of how this can be done illustrates this idea.

Thomas says, “Indeed, non-gamblers could probably procure more for the Ohio economy by spending their money on tv’s play stations. movies ball games and other pleasures than Ohio will get from the 33 13% of the casino’s declared earnings.”

This is an asinine idea. Currently Ohio levies a 5.5% sales tax on the items that Thomas has listed. The various 88 counties also have an “option” of adding an addition percentage as a “rider” on the sales tax. If this rate were to increase, the final costs of those items would naturally increase and fewer (not more) people would purchase them. I ask then, if fewer people buy these items, how then can you say that a budget deficit that is currently not being offset by the taxes already collected on them would suddenly offset it? That is backwards thinking if I ever heard of it.

Thomas points out a very real truth, “We cannot guarantee casino winnings.” We also cannot guarantee how many people would be willing to buy a Playstation if the state increased the sales tax on them now can we?

Thomas then brings up, “… many patrons of nearby, out of state gamblers would remain loyal to their old casinos; they were like homes to them, that is where their friends gamble.”

First off, the chances that these “patrons” having friends that they like to gamble with who are not already their neighbors here in Ohio is remote. It’s not like out of state gambling is creating friendships across state lines. So that argument is moot.

Secondly, I’m sure that Argosy Casino in Indiana will see a dramatic drop in their Ohio patronage if a casino is built in Cincinnati. Argosy[1] is only 20 minutes away from Cincinnati. I also believe that the MGM Grand Detroit would see a decline if a casino is built in Toledo. Additionally, I suspect that Northeast Ohioans would rather go to a casino in Cleveland and keep their money in our economy than drive an equal distance to Erie, PA to play at Presque Isle.

By his list of questions, I’m beginning to wonder if Thomas is genuine in his concern about the issue or is he an out of state shill looking to poke holes in the proponents’ arguments? Either way I think that that I have provided enough information but in the event that I haven’t, I have some information from the Issue 3 website.

  • The Ohio Jobs and Growth Plan is the right proposal at the right time. It provides far more benefit to the state, county and local governments, schools, and the people of Ohio than any previous casino gaming ballot proposal.
  • The proponents of the Ohio Jobs and Growth Plan conducted extensive research to develop a proposal we believe Ohio voters will want to support.
  • The proposal authorizes four first-class casinos, located at specific sites in Ohio’s four largest cities –Cleveland, Cincinnati, Columbus and Toledo.
  • The proposal requires a minimum of $250 million in private economic investment in first-class casinos in each of Ohio’s four largest cities – a total of $1 billion in required economic investment.
  • The state will also receive upfront license fee payments totaling $200 million, specifically designated for job training and workforce development projects.
  • Gross casino revenues will be taxed at a rate of 33 percent. Based on estimated annual gross casino revenues of $1.97 billion, approximately $651 million in casino tax revenue will be generated each year, with counties and Ohio schools receiving the bulk of those revenues. (See Distribution of Casino Tax Revenues.)
  • The proposal will create an estimated 34,000 new jobs for the state.
  • Ohio’s neighboring states (Michigan, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Indiana) as well as New York and the Canadian province of Ontario all have one or more form of legalized gaming generating hundreds of millions of dollars in tax revenues annually for each.
  • A bipartisan commission – funded through casino tax revenues – will be created to develop rules for casino gaming in Ohio, license casino operators, and to oversee and ensure the integrity of casino operations.
  • Portions of the casino tax revenue are also designated for the host cities; for the Ohio State Racing Commission to help revitalize the state’s horse racing industry; for law enforcement training; and for research and treatment of problem gambling and substance abuse.
  • Primary backers of the proposal are Dan Gilbert (majority owner of the NBA’s Cleveland Cavaliers and Chairman and Founder of Quicken Loans) and Penn National Gaming, Inc., a prominent owner and operator of casinos and racetracks, including Raceway Park in Toledo.

Issue 3 is about the economy of Ohio. Just as the United States cannot sustain itself as long as money is being ripped from our economy and shipped via wire transfer to Mexico by illegal aliens, Ohio cannot sustain itself if an estimated $1 billion a year leaving our state. This is an opportunity to retain that $1 billion and create some jobs for some folks who need them.

You will notice that the claims of Issue 3’s proposed casinos hiring out of state workers have been dropped by the opposition in their advertisements. I wonder why? Could it be that they have been proven false?

What hasn’t been talked about much when we discuss the estimated 34,000 jobs that will be created is the collateral impact on the communities in which these 4 casinos will be located. Restaurants, hotels, and entertainment venues will all be built or boosted. These locations will need additional employees all of which will be tax paying Ohioans as well. But perhaps Thomas’ myopic view of Issue 3 can be corrected.

[UPDATE]

I have been contacted by my source in The Ohio Jobs and Growth organization which is spearheading this issue with the following email concerning Thomas.

He’s grasping for straws and doesn’t understand the proposal. We don’t claim to balance the budget, in fact, we’re pretty happy the money ISN’T going to the state, it’s going to local governments as a supplement. Also, we expect revenue to be nearly $2 billion putting estimated tax revenues at $651 million per year (the state’s own analysis came up with $643 million, a difference of about 2%). Feel free to use any of that in a response.

This response from my source along with supplemental emails from Thomas himself, is actually leading me to believe that he is a plant. Someone who is either from TRUTH PAC or an out of state interest wishing to block Issue 3. His questions seem to be distracting from the real issue – Ohio’s economy and jobs.

I remain cordial with Thomas in my responses to him because I cannot be sure that he is a shill as I suspect. That said however, I believe that addressing him any further is a waste of time because I don’t believe that a possibility exists for any additional yes votes out of Thomas and his mystery “friends”.

Campers, I’m just a blogger with an opinion. I’m not connected with The Ohio Jobs and Growth organization spearheading this Issue. I was even on the fence about Issue 3 until just a few short weeks ago. What you have to understand is the state of Ohio is bleeding jobs at a rate that is unsustainable. For our state to survive, there has to be a retention of jobs, growth of jobs, and a retention of the economy. We cannot reverse the recessive economy in Ohio if we don’t first stop the bleeding.

Ohio’s neighbors are bleeding money out of Ohio’s economy. Two of these states are better off than Ohio is economically. One is worse and the other is just as bad. As a state we cannot afford to continue to prop up the economies of our neighbors. We must retain what belongs to us. Issue 3 is not a complete solution however it is a beginning.

Vote yes on Issue 3.

Behind the Mortgage Meltdown

April 2, 2008 Guard the Borders, Illegal Immigration, Opinion Comments Off

By Nancy Matthis at ADMC

The role of Hispanic immigrants in precipitating the mortgage meltdown is obvious. Media outlets have been skirting the subject, presenting individual cases as victims deserving of sympathy.

Ortiz HouseOne such article appeared in the Washington Post, describing the shattered hopes of an Hispanic woman:

‘My House. My Dream. It Was All an Illusion.’

Latina’s Loss in Va. Epitomizes Mortgage Crisis

By Brigid Schulte
Saturday, March 22, 2008

Despite her poor credit, Honduran immigrant Glenda Ortiz easily got a subprime loan for this Alexandria home, bought in 2005 for $430,000. It was foreclosed on last year….

She looked at only one house and paid too much for it: $430,000 for a run-down, one-story duplex in Alexandria, triple what the house had sold for the year before, and $5,000 more than the asking price, according to real estate records.

She agreed to a high-interest loan that would cost her more than $3,000 a month, more than 70 percent of the $4,200 that she and her husband brought home monthly.

She signed papers in English that she didn’t understand….

The four-page article details how she was duped by other Hispanics, craftier than she was, who used their credit to secure a mortgage for which she was liable.

By last March, the home was in foreclosure. The loan originator and mortgage company had gone out of business. And Ortiz was headed to court….

But by then, real estate agents would have made their commissions, mortgage brokers would have their closing costs, and the risky loans would have been repackaged and sold to Wall Street….

The preceding tale describes one common scenario, in which Latinos prey on their own people and game the American economy at the same time. In this gambit, there is little possibility that the victim will keep the house. It is just a scam in which all the real estate principals cash in and depart, before Wall Street fund investors are left holding the bag.

******************

Here is another way the Latino immigrants take the housing market down. One immigrant buys a single-family property, for which the payments are way beyond what is affordable. Then several other families move in with them and help to make the mortgage payments. (This is against zoning regulations, but these are not enforced by politically correct public officials pandering for the immigrant vote.) One family lives in the dining room, another in the living room, and each of the bedrooms becomes home to an entire family.

Once this happens to several homes on a street, the resulting mess and litter begin to depress property values. Maintenance is neglected and the immigrants’ homes become shabby. So the legitimate homeowners are the first to suffer, as their neighborhood begins to look like a third world country and housing values decline.

******************

Here is a third way the illegal immigrants take the market down. This also derives from the situation where several families live in one house. As communities begin to crack down on the illegal aliens who are freeloading on taxpayer-provided services and straining school budgets with ESL costs, some of the illegals leave. Now the immigrant homeowner of record cannot collect enough from the tenant pool in the house to make the mortgage payment, and the house goes into foreclosure.

As the pattern is repeated, soon the “third world country” streets become filled with houses at auction or in foreclosure, up to half the houses on the street. With so many for sale, the original homeowners could not get a fair price for their houses if they had to relocate.

******************

All residential demographics have their share of unwise people who purchased beyond their means, and got caught in an economic downturn. But, taking Northern Virginia as an example, it is clear that the illegal alien population is the greatest factor. Two counties lead the effort to combat the alien invasion — Loudoun and Prince William. The statistics are compelling (see graphic).

Foreclosures

One county that has seen a significant exodus of illegal aliens recently is Prince William County in Northern Virginia. The situation is decribed by an article in the Washington Post:

By and large, those [foreclosed] properties are concentrated in lower-priced areas and Zip codes where many immigrants bought homes in recent years, often with subprime mortgages and other risky arrangements that required little down payment or documentation. In Northern Virginia and especially Prince William, many buyers were Hispanic immigrants….

….several … real estate specialists in Northern Virginia estimate that 70 to 80 percent of foreclosure cases they see involve Hispanic families….

Real estate agents say the foreclosure crisis in Prince William has been exacerbated by local authorities’ efforts to crack down on illegal immigrants….

******************

The tenor of the discussion in the mainstream media is to blame the local communities that discourage illegal immigrants. And that is very mistaken. The illegals committed a crime by entering this country without documentation. Other Hispanics committed fraud by luring their fellow Latinos into mortgage arrangements that were destined to fail, and by misrepresenting credit credentials to the lending institutions. Immigrant homeowners of record violated the local zoning laws. Employers of these illegals were complicit by hiring them against federal law. The mortgage sellers were duplicitous in lending money on paper to clients who clearly did not qualify. The banks were unscrupulous, knowing that they could skim a profit and package and resell the paper before the scheme crashed. The Wall Street buyers of the paper defrauded their investors by making bad judgements in buying these mortgage packages from the banks.

Now, in the face of all this corruption, our federal government has reached its sticky-fingered hands into all of our pockets for the billions of dollars needed to keep these reprehensible outfits afloat. There are credulous apologists:

IRWIN KELLNER: Why Everyone Benefits From Bear Stearns Bailout

PORT WASHINGTON, N.Y. (Dow Jones) — Never has one word been used so many times by so many people who think they know what’s best for our sluggish economy than the word “taxpayers.”….

On Sunday, an editorial discussing the steps that the Federal Reserve recently took to prevent Bear Stearns Companies Inc. (BSC) from going bankrupt mentioned the word “taxpayers” no less than nine times.

Like many others, the Times is worried that taxpayers will bear some or all of the cost of rescuing Bear Stearns….

Let me point out that whatever you call the Fed’s actions dealing with Bear Stearns, J.P. Morgan Chase Co. (JPM) and the financial markets and whoever may appear to benefit directly from these steps, the fact remains that everyone ( taxpayers and non-taxpayers alike) has a stake in keeping the markets running smoothly.

That said, in my view, it is wrong … to insinuate that using funds obtained from the general public via tax revenues to help prevent such an important sector of the economy as our financial system from seizing up benefits only a few: it actually helps everyone….

So, the bottom line is this: Almost everyone involved in this mess was dishonest. Our governments — federal, state, and local — let it happen because the politicians were pandering to the Latino vote. Now we are all supposed to shell out to bail them out, because they threaten us with the loss of our retirement pensions and devaluation of our other assets. Is no one outraged?

To add insult to injury, the high rollers who puppet-mastered this mess made out like bandits. There were many. Let’s just take a look at Bear Stearns execs:

  • Bear Stearns Chairman Jimmy Cayne
  • Chief Executive Officer Alan Schwartz
  • Former Co-President Warren Spector

MSNBC reports:

….don’t cry for Cayne and his cadre of Bear big shots. Their paper wealth may have disintegrated but for years leading up to Bear’s collapse they had been the beneficiaries of one of the most generous compensation packages in the industry. Over five years, from 2002 through 2006, Cayne took home total compensation — salary, bonus, restricted stock, and stock options — worth a combined $156 million. Current CEO Schwartz made $141 million. Former Co-President Warren Spector, deposed after the hedge fund debacle, did the best of them all, reaping $168 million.

The biggest chunk of pay came in the form of bonuses, which for Bear execs were relatively easily obtained. Through 2005, bonuses were based on the completion of any one of nine metrics, a tactic that virtually guaranteed that targets would be met….

From 2002 through 2005, Bear Stearns proxy statements show that Cayne and his lieutenants, Schwartz and Spector, took home bonuses of between $9 million and $12 million each.

Then came the fattest year of all, 2006. Bear’s mortgage origination and other credit products grew at a 27% clip, and the company’s expansion into these areas really paid off, at least for those at the top of the pay pyramid. Bear had eliminated the nine metrics for bonuses and moved to basing them entirely on one measure — return on equity, a number easily met by Bear’s executives once they were on the subprime bandwagon. Cash bonuses jumped to more than $16 million for Cayne, Schwartz, and Spector in 2006.

Bear officials had no comment….

The no-money-down mortgage market was just a giant Ponzi scheme with a window dressing of mortgage paper. It collapsed. And, thanks to the power brokers on Wall Street, the swindlers were rewarded and the American taxpayers were extorted. Far from protecting us, our government was complicit. And the housing market for illegal immigrants played a pivotal role. The corporate greed and endemic irresponsibility of major financial institutions were the cause of the so-called “meltdown,” but the illegal aliens were the trigger and the catalyst.

Foreclosure

Reference:

On March 26, the National Public Radio program All Things Considered observed that banker and economic historian Charles Morris predicted the mortgage meltdown. Charles Morris is the author of The Trillion Dollar Meltdown, a book largely written one year ago. Bottom line — he saw it coming when “leading government and finance people were touting the rosiest of financial futures”, according to the report. On March 31st, speaking on Glenn Beck’s CNN Headline News program, Morris said, “The real number could be one trillion dollars.”

The Trillion Dollar Meltdown: Easy Money, High Rollers and the Great Credit Crash

The sub-prime mortgage crisis is only the beginning: A more profound economic and political restructuring is on its way.

We are living in the most reckless financial environment in recent history. Arcane credit derivative bets are now well into the tens of trillions.

According to Charles R. Morris, the astronomical leverage at investment banks and their hedge fund and private equity clients virtually guarantees massive disruption in global markets. The crash, when it comes, will have no firebreaks. A quarter century of free-market zealotry that extolled asset stripping, abusive lending, and hedge fund secrecy will come crashing down with it.

The Trillion Dollar Meltdown explains how we got here, and what is about to happen. After the crash our priorities will be quite different. But things are likely to get worse before they better. Whether you are an active investor, a homeowner, or a contributor to your 401(k) plan, The Trillion Dollar Meltdown will be indispensable to understanding the gross excess that has put the world economy on the brink-and what the new landscape will look like.

Is Mexico Admitting Being an Avenue for Terrorists?

The headline reads, “Iraqi pair nabbed in Mexico,
headed to U.S. with fake IDs: Mexico suspects European ring of selling counterfeit Bulgarian passports for $10K”. Interesting. Hasn’t the right been saying that Mexico is an avenue of entry for Islamic terrorists for years? Seems like it if it hasn’t been.

From WND:

Two more Iraqis with false Bulgarian passports were detained by Mexican officials in Monterrey – bringing the total to four this month.

Two MORE?!? How did this escape the MSM? Oh, that’s right, it doesn’t fit in with their open borders agenda.

Wisam Gorgies, a 34-year-old man, and Rana Nazar Peyoz, a 26-year-old woman, reportedly flew from Madrid and landed in Monterrey, according to reports in two Mexican newspapers today.

Following questioning, the pair admitted they intended to reach the United States. They were taken to Saltillo in the state of Coahuila, for final determination of their status.

Of course they were heading here. Why not. After-all the selection of American targets is greater here isn’t it?

Mexican officials said the are investigating “a network that could be made up of Mexicans operating in Greece who are selling false Bulgarian passports for $10,000 to European and Middle Eastern citizens.” emphasis mine

Mexicans selling passports to Middle Eastern citizens… Sounds like some in Mexico are contributing to the Global War on Terrorism – FOR THE OTHER SIDE!

Earlier this month, El Universal, a daily in Mexico City, reported two other Iraqis, Markos Ramy, a 25-year-old man, and Sollem Pate, a 20-year-old woman, presented Bulgarian passports upon arrival at the Monterrey airport after a flight from Spain.

They told customs officials they came as tourists for a couple days. But because they spoke no Bulgarian, their passports were determined to be fraudulent. The Bulgarian consulate did not acknowledge them as citizens and their hotel reservations proved to be phony.

Only after their cover story was blown did the couple admit to being Iraqis. They claimed to be fleeing the war.

Fleeing the war? Why didn’t they flee before the invasion if they were fleeing the war. The war has technically over since 2003. We aren’t engaged in combat operations against Iraqi troops are we? Then there is no war. So that begs the question, what do they have to flee now? The Turkish invasion?

Mexico is a conduit by which terrorist can and do enter our country disguised as Mexicans. There were reports 2 years ago about Hugo Chavez in Venezuela running training camps where terrorists learn Spanish and how to act like Mexicans so that they’d fit in with the others scampering across the desert of the American Southwest.

The article that I’m citing goes on to mention Iraqis, including former Baath Party and al Qaeda members slipping into Kuwait using phony Norwegian passports. More terrorists crossing a relatively uncontrolled border.

One question that I don’t have an answer to still remains. Are the Mexicans admitting that they are a conduit for terrorists to enter the United States?

WND Reporting: MexiCain Funded By Soros Since 2001

Seems for all of his attempts to pander to Conservatives at CPAC this past weekend, Juan MexiCain has been working for the other side since 2001 according to a newly released article on World Net Daily.

In 2001, McCain founded the Alexandria, Va.-based Reform Institute as a vehicle to receive funding from George Soros’ Open Society Institute and Teresa Heinz Kerry’s Tides Foundation and several other prominent non-profit organizations.

Isn’t this bordering on sleeping with the enemy?

McCain used the institute to promote his political agenda and provide compensation to key campaign operatives between elections.

In 2006, the Arizona senator was forced to sever his formal ties with the Reform Institute after a controversial $200,000 contribution from Cablevision came to light.

Uh Oh Juan! What did you do?

McCain solicited the donation for the Reform Institute using his membership on the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation. In a letter to the Federal Communications Commission, he supported Cablevision’s push to introduce the more profitable al la carte pricing, rather than packages of TV programming.

Instead of focusing on influence peddling which would have prevented situations like this, MexiCain decided to team up with one of the Senate’s most liberal members to co-author a bill that became law which curtailed the type of advertising permitted within 30 days of an election. McCain-Feingold put limits on soft-money contributions and silenced free speech but left open the possibility for MexiCain to peddle his influence. Naughty naughty Juan.

Yet, the Reform Institute still employs the McCain campaign’s Hispanic outreach director, Juan Hernandez, as a senior fellow of its Comprehensive Immigration Reform Initiative.

As WND reported, Hernandez serves as a non-paid volunteer for the McCain campaign. A dual Mexican-U.S. citizen, he was a member of former President Vicente Fox’s cabinet, representing an estimate 24 million Mexicans living abroad. Hernandez, with a “Mexico first” message, has argued aggressively against building a fence on the Mexican border, insisting the frontier needed to remain wide open so illegal immigrants could easily enter the U.S.

This being the case, are we now to believe that MexiCain “learned his lesson” when it comes to amnesty programs? I think not. Soros et al want open borders and as long as Hernandez receives money from Soros and Kerry I see no way he can not push forward another open borders amnesty plan if he were to become President of the United States.

Soros, Kerry, and all the rest of the ultra left want high taxes, redistribution of wealth, open borders, massive social spending programs, and a more socialist model in our government. If MexiCain and his aids are receiving money from these people, how are we supposed to believe that he wants to be more Conservative. It’s not happening Juan.

I’ve said this before and you’ll keep reading it until his ambitions to be President are quashed for good, the next President is going to be doomed to a single 4 year term. That’s it.

Economic conditions in this country are destined to plummet without a true Conservative candidate in the General Election. A faux Conservative will tank the economy. Either liberal will tank the economy. And we will see a return of economic conditions reminiscent to those which existed during the Carter Infestation. Do we want the next President to be a Republican if this happens? I for one don’t.

Think of it, Mexicans flowing over the border like water over Niagara Falls and unemployment in double digits. I see Soviet Union style economic depression on the horizon.

See the article “John McCain funded by Soros since 2001 – Candidate’s Reform Institute also accepted funds from Teresa Kerry” on World Net Daily.

A Vote for Huckster is as Good as a Vote for MexiCain

Mike “The Huckster” Huckabee’s obstinate obsession with staying in a race for a nomination that he cannot win could hand the nomination to someone that would damage our party beyond repair. Every vote for The Huckster is a vote for MexiCain. The media is discounting The Huckster just as they have discounted Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich from the beginning. He is a non-entity at this point with no real chance at winning the nomination but yet he still hangs on. This is fueling speculation among the Conservative base that he may be a shill for MexiCain. He knows that he cannot win and he knows that he is drawing some voters from Romney who he hates. This all being the truth, he is willing to hand the nomination to an individual who has made a career out of thumbing his nose at the very party he claims to be a member of. What other explanation is there for The Hucksters actions?

I will go on record now saying that if MexiCain becomes the nominee of my party, I’ll vote Democrat in the General election. Why? Because this country would have earned what we get. The depression that will ensue will be due to the Republican Party nominating someone who cannot be distinguished as any different than the Democrats. If we have a choice between a Democrat and a RINO, might as well vote for the genuine article I say.

Voters you have to wake up to the truth. If you are a social Conservative, at this point you only have one choice. Romney. If you are an economic Conservative, at this point you only have one choice. Romney. If you are a national security Conservative, you do have a choice because voting for MexiCain will hand the Dems a victory on social and economic issues. If you wish to lower taxes, MexiCain is not your man. If you wish to control spending, again, MexiCain is not your man. He talks a good talk, but his record says a different tune.

And let me be clear on this, each and every vote for The Huckster is a vote for MexiCain.

Some of you Huckster backers out there consider yourself social Conservatives. Don’t let Huckster’s evangelical rhetoric sway you. His anti-Mormon bigotry is no different than being a racist. Remember we live in a nation that protects religious freedom and your support of Huckster is a support of his bigotry.

I too am no fan of Romney’s religion. But as a Roman Catholic Huckster despises me just as much as he despises Romney. His religious background affords him no choice but to be single minded in his bigotry. As a Roman Catholic the biggest issue which sways my vote is the candidate’s stance on abortion. At this point, Romney’s position on abortion is acceptable. He is taking the Fred Thompson federalist approach which is overturn Roe v Wade and send it back to the states where the issue always belonged.

As an economic Conservative I feel more comfortable voting for someone who believes that the Bush tax cuts should be made permanent. MexiCain opposed the Bush tax cuts but now says they ought to be made permanent. Makes you wonder how genuine that desire is. Mike Huckabee says now he’s on board with The Fair Tax, but his record shows a tendency to raise taxes. Especially in the quest to institute a nanny state. Huckster would use the tax system to enforce nanny state policies against smokers, drinkers, and transfats. Do you want the President and the federal government tell you that you can’t eat that burger, smoke that cigarette, or have that drink? I don’t and I’m not even a smoker.

Evangelical Conservatives wake the hell up. The man you are backing is going to turn on you when he successfully beats down the only viable Conservative left in this race. When it looks like Romney cannot secure the nomination, Huckster will bow out and throw his support behind MexiCain. Is that what you truly want? Use your head, that’s the lump 3 feet above your ass.

People the choices are simple, MexiCain or Romney. That’s it. Any other considerations during your time in the voting booth are votes to support MexiCain. Under a MexiCain Presidency we would have an open border policy that would increase the number of illegals invading our country exponentially. Instead of 12-20 million illegals in this country try 40-50 million. If you think it is difficult to find a job that pays a livable wage now, elect MexiCain.

And one last time. Each and every vote for Huckster is a vote for MexiCain.

MexiCain’s Immigration Positions

Since the people of Florida decided last night to make Senator Juan MexiCain the GOP front runner, I thought it was prudent to discuss Juan’s positions on Immigration.

According to On the Issues:

* Do everything I can to help all immigrants learn English. (Dec 2007)
* Illegal immigrants are God’s children as well. (Nov 2007)
* 12 million illegals in country now is de facto amnesty. (Sep 2007)
* Amnesty is forgiveness; we offer fines; lines; & long waits. (Sep 2007)
* No official English; Native Americans use own languages. (Jun 2007)
* Immigration reform needed for national security. (Jun 2007)
* Hispanics serve our country, like every wave of immigrants. (Jun 2007)
* America expects us to work on immigration together. (May 2007)
* Bipartisanship shows preparedness for presidency. (May 2007)
* Change rule barring immigrants from running for president. (May 2007)
* Comprehensive reform requires temporary worker program. (May 2007)
* Comprehensive reform must include border security first. (Apr 2007)
* Make possible for immigrants to do a job Americans won’t do. (Oct 2004)
* Give everyone in the world an opportunity to come to America. (Oct 2004)
* More help for legal immigrants when immigrating & once here. (Jul 1998)

Voting Record

* No more ballot initiatives against immigration. (Mar 1999)
* Voted YES on comprehensive immigration reform. (Jun 2007)
* Voted YES on declaring English as the official language of the US government. (Jun 2007)
* Voted YES on building a fence along the Mexican border. (Sep 2006)
* Voted YES on establishing a Guest Worker program. (May 2006)
* Voted YES on allowing illegal aliens to participate in Social Security. (May 2006)
* Voted YES on giving Guest Workers a path to citizenship. (May 2006)
* Voted YES on allowing more foreign workers into the US for farm work. (Jul 1998)
* Voted YES on visas for skilled workers. (May 1998)
* Voted YES on limit welfare for immigrants. (Jun 1997)
* English immersion over bilingual education. (Jul 2001)
* Rated 18% by USBC, indicating an open-border stance. (Dec 2006)

Friends, the emphasized passages show where Juan MexiCain is in conflict with Conservatives. Is this what you want in your new President? I sure as hell don’t.

We need a President who will stop the flow of illegal aliens into this country first. Someone who would support the ability for the states and communities to rid the nation of illegals by passing legislation which would make it more difficult for these people to work and live in this country. These illegals will leave on their own if they can’t find work or a place to live. We’re seeing it in Juan’s home state of Arizona. Now we need it implemented nation wide.

In Mitt’s Defense and the Truth About Rudy

One of my allies in the war on liberalism sent me a comment that was rather disturbing. She said in response to my post Florida Could Be Key to Nomination After-All

You’re wrong about Mitt, and I can prove it. I’ll send you an email, because it would take up too much room. He is a phony. He is the Father of homosexual marriage. The MA Supreme Court CANNOT legislate. The legislature never made it a law, but Mitt told all the clerks that if they had a problem with his dictatorial statement to change the words of the marriage certifacite (and mother and father when a child is born) to person A and person B. He also fought to have abortion added to the ‘healthcare’ plan with $50 co-pay. This was AFTER the stem cell dispute. Consider these issues while I dig up the info for you.

BTW, I’m voting for Rudy. He is at least honest about his positions. This is why I trust him on judges. I’ve also seen him throw arafat out of the un! This guy has plenty of foreign affairs experience, and he has been in a war zone. More than once. Remember 9/11? He is the one who brought this country together single-handedly. But do you also remember February 1993? – Rosemary

It is my understanding that it wasn’t Mitt Romney who instituted gay marriage in Massachusetts rather it was the Massachusetts Supreme Court legislating from the bench which is something that is, unfortunately, not uncommon in a post Roe v Wade America.

Same-sex marriage in the U.S. state of Massachusetts began on May 17, 2004, as a result of the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts ruling in Goodridge v. Department of Public Health that it was unconstitutional under the Massachusetts constitution to allow only heterosexual couples to marry. Massachusetts became the sixth jurisdiction in the world (after the Netherlands, Belgium, Ontario, British Columbia, and Quebec) to legalize same-sex marriage. It is the first U.S. state to make same-sex marriages legal. SOURCE

The Goodridge et al. v. Department of Public Health decision is available in full via Findlaw on PDF.

Rosemary says that she’s backing Rudy Giuliani not just because of his actions on September 11, 2001 but also his leadership on February 26, 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center. I hope that Rosemary would wake up and realize that crisis management skills aside, Rudy is not qualified to be the Republican Nominee. He is a gun grabber. He’s pro-death. He’s pro-special rights for homosexuals and he’s pro-illegal alien.

    * NYC sued two dozen major gun manufacturers and distributors. (Jun 2000)
    * All gun owners should pass written test. (Mar 2000)

    * Anti-Catholic art is disgusting; appoints decency council. (Feb 2001)
    * Brooklyn Museum closed due to lease rules, not censorship. (Oct 1999)
    * Free speech for private expression, not publicly-funded art. (Oct 1999)

    * BorderStat & virtual fence: just stop people from coming in. (Nov 2007)
    * FactCheck: NYC acted like “sanctuary city”, in all but name. (Nov 2007)
    * Sanctuary city policy helped make NYC most legal city in US. (Oct 2007)

    * Supports Senate guest worker plan & path to citizenship. (Nov 2006)
    * NYC services for illegal aliens. (Oct 2005)

If you support these positions you may as well vote for Hillary Clinton. At least she doesn’t hide her positions on these matters.

Rosemary, I like you. But the idea that Rudy is the right fit for the GOP is absurd. You have gone from supporting Duncan Hunter, a very Conservative Congressman from your home state, to supporting Rudy a social liberal. How can that happen? Please don’t fall for his rhetoric on national security. The MSM built this character up for months and you didn’t switch, why now?

Nominating Rudy Giuliani is akin to voting for Hillary because there are plenty of Conservatives like myself that will take the position that if our choices are Clinton v Clinton wannabe, we may as vote for the real deal. Nominating Rudy will signal the dawn of The Clintonian Infestation II.

Arizona Cracks Down Mexico Complains

Mexican illegals are flocking back to the Mexican state of Sonora because they cannot find work in Arizona any longer. This has Mexican officials in Sonora up in arms and meeting with pro-illegal immigration/open border morons in the Arizona Legislature in an attempt to get those officials to repeal the law cracking down on employers offering jobs to illegals. Their argument? That the flood of Mexicans returning to Mexico is stressing the ability for Sonora to provide housing, jobs, education, and other services for these returning Mexicans. Define irony…

From the Tucson Citizen 12/19/07:

It’s a common scene this time of year: streams of overloaded cars, pickups and vans with U.S. license plates crossing into Mexico for the holidays.

Most are filled with Hispanic families from Arizona and other states on their way to visit relatives south of the border for a few weeks before heading back to the U.S. But this year, the holiday travelers are being joined by scores of families such as Jorge and Liliana Franco, who are driving to Mexico not to visit but to stay – permanently.

Congress’ failure to pass comprehensive immigration reform, immigration crackdowns, Arizona’s new employer-sanctions law and a sluggish economy have combined to create a climate families such as the Francos no longer find hospitable.

The number returning to Mexico is difficult to calculate, but there is no question that many families are leaving, according to Mexican government officials, local community leaders and immigrants themselves.

“The situation in Arizona has become very tough,” Jorge said minutes after driving into a Mexican immigration and customs checkpoint south of the border on Mexico 15.

My heart bleeds… No it doesn’t. Because Jorge, you didn’t belong here in the first place.

You know I love the argument made by the open borders morons that except for native Americans, we are all immigrants. Nonsense!

My people came to this country during the Irish potato famine. My parents were born here, my grandparents, and great-grandparents were also. Their parents had to undergo a legal process to enter through Ellis Island. In other words, they signed the book on the way in. But I digress…

In a report that appeared in the 10:00 am EST hour on Fox News Channel, it is being reported that officials from Sonora Mexico are lobbying lawmakers in Arizona to not enforce the employer-sanctions law citing the exact same arguments that those of us advocating enforcement of our borders have been making for years. The transients are taxing our services as well. And they are taking our jobs. But those facts fall on deaf ears in Mexico. Why should our lawmakers listen to them? They don’t listen to us.

Mr. McCain pay attention here! It is your state for crying out loud.

Mexico is not a friend of the United States. They advocate the invasion of our nation. They harbor our fugitives fleeing the death penalty (see the hunt for Cesar Laurean). They flood drugs and gang members into our nation. Their army invades our nation and conducts raids. And they refuse to cooperate in border enforcement.

These are acts of war and our Congress and our President needs to inform them that we will take action if it doesn’t end. Unilaterally if need be, but action is needed.

Anchor Babies or No Anchor Babies? Huckster’s Conflicting Reports

First there was the Washington Times article that claimed that he supported a Constitutional Amendment banning birth right citizenship and then he issued a statement saying that wasn’t true, which is it Huckster?

From the Washington Times:

Mike Huckabee wants to amend the Constitution to prevent children born in the U.S. to illegal aliens from automatically becoming American citizens, according to his top immigration surrogate — a radical step no other major presidential candidate has embraced.

Mr. Huckabee, who won last week’s Republican Iowa caucuses, promised Minuteman Project founder James Gilchrist that he would force a test case to the Supreme Court to challenge birthright citizenship, and would push Congress to pass a 28th Amendment to the Constitution to remove any doubt.

This sentiment is popular among those who are sick and tired of the invasion of this nation from Mexico. When the Minuteman Project founder James Gilchrist first announced his endorsement for Mike Huckabee, I thought to myself that it was a mistake and that something must be misconstrued by Gilchrist. A statement from the Huckster confirms this.

From Huckster for President:

Former Arkansas Governor and Presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has issued the following comment in response to a Washington Times article reporting he would amend the Constitution in connection to children born in the U.S. to illegal aliens:

I do not support an amendment to the Constitution that would prevent children born in the U.S. to illegal aliens from automatically becoming American citizens. I have no intention of supporting a constitutional amendment to deny birthright citizenship.emphasis mine

Gilchrist’s endorsement siphoned off many Tom Tancredo and Duncan Hunter supporters when it was evident that the Huckster was rising in the polls and neither candidate had a prayer. Now those supporters, many of them in Iowa, Wyoming, and yes New Hampshire, will be regretting their votes because the former Arkansas Governor is being seen as back peddling on an important issue. Raises the question, is the Huckster pandering for votes? My answer is yes.

Remember people that he paid attention to Clintonian politics. His entire campaign reminds me of the Slick One himself, Billy Bob Bubba. Take a look at their personal similarities:

    Both born in Hope Arkansas
    Both served as Governor of Arkansas
    Both raised taxes as Governor (1)
    Both spent Arkansas into a deficit (2)
    Both will say whatever to whomever to gain their vote. In other words both are Charlatans.

(1) The Huckster raised taxes MORE than Billy Bob Bubba. He learned so well from Bubba that he out did him in raising taxes.

(2) The Huckster likewise spent MORE than Billy Bob Bubba.

If you want a Clinton maybe you should vote for a Clinton. After-all, there is a Clinton running. IN THE OTHER PARTY!

Behind the Mortgage Meltdown

April 2, 2008

By Nancy Matthis at ADMC
The role of Hispanic immigrants in precipitating the mortgage meltdown is obvious. Media outlets have been skirting the subject, presenting individual cases as victims deserving of sympathy.
One such article appeared in the Washington Post, describing the shattered hopes of an Hispanic woman:
‘My House. My Dream. It Was All [...]

Is Mexico Admitting Being an Avenue for Terrorists?

February 22, 2008
