How Mexico does it... from someone who has been there

For anyone thinking we are being too hard on our illegals,

JUST READ THIS!!!

American working in Mexico

From the other side of the fence...

Received the following from Tom O'Malley, who was a Director with S.W. BELL in Mexico City:

"I spent five years working in Mexico. I worked under a tourist Visa for three months and could legally renew it for three more months. After that you were working illegally. I was technically illegal for three weeks waiting on the FM3 approval.

"During that six months our Mexican and U.S. attorneys were working to secure a permanent work visa called a 'FM3'. It was in addition to my U.S. passport that I had to show each time I entered and left the country. Barbara's was the same, except hers did not permit her to work.

"To apply for the FM3, I needed to submit the following notarized originals (not copies):

1. Birth certificate for Barbara and me.

2. Marriage certificate.

3. High school transcripts and proof of graduation.

4. College transcripts for every college I attended and

proof of graduation.

5. Two letters of recommendation from supervisors I had worked for at least one year.

6. A letter from the St. Louis Chief of Police indicating that I had no arrest record in the U.S. and no outstanding warrants and, was "a citizen in good standing".

7. "Finally, I had to write a letter about myself that clearly stated why there was no Mexican citizen with my skills and why my skills were important to Mexico. We called it our 'I am the greatest person on Earth' letter. It was fun to write."

"All of the above were in English that had to be translated into Spanish and be certified as legal translations, and our signatures notarized. It produced a folder about 1.5 inches thick with English on the left side &Spanish on the right."

"Once they were completed Barbara and I spent about five hours, accompanied by a Mexican attorney, touring Mexican government office locations and being photographed and fingerprinted at least three times at each location, and we remember at least four locations where we were instructed on Mexican tax, labor, housing, and criminal law and that we were required to obey their laws or face the consequences. We could not protest any of the government's actions or we would be committing a felony. We paid out four thousand dollars in fees and bribes to complete the process. When this was done we could legally bring in our household goods that were held by U.S. Customs in Laredo, Texas. This meant we had rented furniture in Mexico while awaiting our goods. There were extensive fees involved here that the company paid."

"We could not buy a home and were required to rent at very high rates and under contract and compliance with Mexican law."

"We were required to get a Mexican driver's license. This was an amazing process. The company arranged for the licensing agency to come to our headquarters location with their photography and fingerprint equipment and the laminating machine. We showed our U.S. license, were photographed and fingerprinted again and issued the license instantly after paying out a six dollar fee. We did not take a written or driving test and never received instructions on the rules of the road. Our only instruction was to never give a policeman your license if stopped and asked. We were instructed to hold it against the inside window away from his grasp. If he got his hands on it you would have to pay ransom to get it back. "

"We then had to pay and file Mexican income tax annually using the number of our FM3 as our ID number. The company's Mexican accountants did this for us and we just signed what they prepared. It was about twenty legal size pages annually."

"The FM3 was good for three years and renewable for two more after paying more fees."

"Leaving the country meant turning in the FM3 and certifying we were leaving no debts behind and no outstanding legal affairs (warrants, tickets or liens) before our household goods were released to customs."

"It was a real adventure and if any of our Senators or Congressmen went through it once they would have a different attitude toward Mexico."

"The Mexican government uses its vast military and police forces to keep its citizens intimidated and compliant. They never protest at their capitol or government offices, but do protest daily in front of the United States Embassy. The U.S. Embassy looks like a strongly reinforced fortress and during most protests the Mexican military surrounds the block with their men standing shoulder to shoulder in full riot gear to protect the Embassy. These protests are never shown on U.S. or Mexican TV. There is a large public park across the street where they do their protesting. Anything can cause a protest such as proposed law changes in California or Texas."

Please feel free to share this with everyone who thinks we are being hard on the illegals.

Muslim Heritage in America spelled out for Obama

The following was sent in by Larry P! It pretty well sums things up.

Barack OBAMA, during his Cairo speech, said: "I know, too, that Islam has always been a part of America's story."


AN AMERICAN CITIZEN'S RESPONSE:


Dear Mr. Obama:


Were those Muslims that were in America when the Pilgrims first landed? Funny, I thought they were Native American Indians.


Were those Muslims that celebrated the first Thanksgiving day? Sorry again, those were Pilgrims and Native American Indians.


Can you show me one Muslim signature on the United States Constitution?


Declaration of Independence?


Bill of Rights?


Didn't think so.



Did Muslims fight for this country's freedom from England? No.


Did Muslims fight during the Civil War to free the slaves in America? No, they did not. In fact, Muslims to this day are still the largest traffickers in human slavery.


Where were Muslims during the Civil Rights era of this country? Not present.


There are no pictures or media accounts of Muslims walking side by side with Martin Luther King, Jr. or helping to advance the cause of Civil Rights.


Where were Muslims during this country's Woman's Suffrage era? Again, not present. In fact, devout Muslims demand that women are subservient to men in the Islamic culture. So much so, that often they are beaten for not wearing the 'hajib' or for talking to a man who is not a direct family member or their husband. Yep, the Muslims are all for women's rights, aren't they?


Where were Muslims during World War II? They were aligned with Adolf Hitler. The Muslim grand mufti himself met with Adolf Hitler, reviewed the troops and accepted support from the Nazi's in killing Jews.


Finally, Mr. Obama, where were Muslims on Sept. 11th, 2001? If they weren't flying planes into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon or a field in Pennsylvania killing nearly 3,000 people on our own soil, they were rejoicing in the Middle East. No one can dispute the pictures shown from all parts of the Muslim world celebrating on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC and other cable news networks that day. Strangely, the very "moderate" Muslims who's asses you bent over backwards to kiss in Cairo, Egypt on June 4th were stone cold silent post 9-11. To many Americans, their silence has meant approval for the acts of that day.


And THAT, Mr. Obama, is the "rich heritage" Muslims have here in America.


Oh, I'm sorry; I forgot to mention the Barbary Pirates. They were Muslim.


And now we can add November 5, 2009 - the slaughter of American soldiers at Fort Hood by a Muslim major who is a doctor and a psychiatrist who was supposed to be counseling soldiers returning from battle in Iraq and Afghanistan.


That, Mr. Obama is the "Muslim heritage" in America.

Gun saves homeowner's life

ELIZABETHTON, Tenn. (AP) — Carter County authorities say a homeowner fatally shot a hatchet-carrying intruder.

The Johnson City Press quoted Sheriff Chris Mathes, who said the early investigation Friday indicated it was self-defense.

Mathes said his office was called just after midnight Thursday to a home in the Roan Mountain community. He did not immediately identify those involved.

The sheriff said a report from the investigation would be submitted to District Attorney General Tony Clark.

Poker Player kills rats!

Poker Player answers phone: Hello

Reporter: Is that you Poker Player?

Poker Player: Who does it sound like?

Reporter: You.

Poker Player: Well, it must be me. Now, what you got on your mind.

Reporter: I called up to ask you about your trip to DC and the rat hunt at the White House…

Poker Player: Yeah, I figured that. How come you never call up and ask if you can help me hoe out the garden?

Reporter: The garden’s got a hoe?

Poker Player: No. Chop out the garden.

Reporter: What do you want to chop out the garden for?

Poker Player: Get rid of the weeds.

Reporter: Huh?

Poker Player: Never mind. What’s your question?

Reporter: Well, how did you get involved in all this?

Poker Player: Congressman Batty. You know after that rat cut across the podium while Obama was busy apologizing to somebody about America.

Reporter: Now don’t get started on that. We both know that America has many faults.

Poker Player: No. You may know. The only fault I know is that we elected Obama.. But anyhow, that’s how it got started.

Reporter: And?

Poker Player: Yeah. Obama played it cool until he got back inside. But then he started demanding a writ for the rat, or a rat for a writ…

Reporter: Wasn’t that in “True Grit?”

Poker Player: Maybe. Anyway, the justice department said they only handled two legged rats. Turned into a real scene. Anyways, Congresscritter Batty was over there taking the Prez some of our fine home grown tobacco and a machine so the Prez could make himself some ready rolls…

Reporter: Ready rolls?

Poker Player: Yeah. You know, cigarettes that are ready to smoke when you take’em out of the pack.

Reporter: Oh.

Poker Player: Anyhow, Batty tells Obama that he had the answer.

Reporter: And that was you?

Poker Player: No. My rat dog.

Reporter: Ole Yeller?

Poker Player: No. Ole Yeller is a coon dog. My fice dog. Big John.

Reporter: I’ve seen Big John and he isn’t big.

Poker Player: That’s why we call him Big John.

Reporter: And that’s why you call him Big John?

Poker Player: Surely. I keep forgetting you ain’t from around here.

Reporter: So your rat dog…

Poker Player: No. My fice dog..

Reporter: Never heard of such.

Poker Player: Fice. F I C E

Reporter: Oh, you mean Feist Dog. F E I S T

Poker Player: No. He’s a fice. What are you, a Damnyankee?

Reporter: Okay, okay. He’s your fice rat dog. What happened next?

Poker Player: Well, quicker than you can say Cock Robin they had a G-5 down here and me and Big John was on our way to DC.

Reporter: G-5?

Poker Player: Airplane. Mighty nice one, too. Obama borrowed it from Pelosi… Air Force One is too big for Junction Airport.

Besides the President and the family were using it... they were off to Indonesia or somewhere. Everybody said it would be a perfect time to get rid of the rats.

Reporter: How’d Big John like flying?

Poker Player: Loved it. Just one thing. He hiked his leg and piddled on this one seat. The guys said it was where Madam Speaker sat.

Reporter: Him hiking his leg must have made them mad.

Poker Player: Well, I thought it would. But the crew just kept saying “Good doggy” and giving him more water.

Reporter: What happened after you got to the White House?

Poker Player: Everything was going great. Big John was killing rats left and right and then disaster.

Reporter: Disaster? What happened? One of the rats hurt Big John?

Poker Player: Worse. This woman from the French Embassy showed up with a female poodle that was in heat.

Reporter: Heat?

Poker Player: In season.

Reporter: What?

Poker Player: You are slow, aren’t you. She was in a lovey dovey mood.

Reporter: Oh.

Poker Player: I tell you it was love at first sight. Big John hadn’t ever seen a dog with a bow in her hair… I mean the rat killing just left his mind.

Reporter: I bet.

Poker Player: The French lady got all excited and kept asking if Big John was fixed. I told her it looked to me like nothing was broken. She just got madder and madder.

Reporter: I am not surprised.

Poker Player: Finally this guy showed up and started poking me in the chest with his finger telling me to go away and not come back until I had the problem solved.

Reporter: What’d you do?

Poker Player: Well, we went to the hotel and I ordered up a couple of steaks for us and a six pack of Heineken.

Reporter: Heineken? No PBR?

Poker Player: Yeah. I’d gotten to like it while on the G-5. Anyhow, had me some food and beer and after awhile it came to me.

Reporter: It?

Poker Player: Yeah, I remembered that when my Daddy thought we had too many rats in the corn crib he would catch a couple of Chicken snakes and just toss him in the crib. Man you should have seen those rats leaving the barn.

Reporter: And you found some Chicken snakes?

Poker Player: Yeah. I got this guy who had been assigned to help me and we went over to the zoo…

Reporter: And they had Chicken snakes?

Poker Player: They had some fancy name for’em. Didn’t want to let us have’em but we told’em it was a national emergency and nationalized the snakes.

Reporter: Nationalized?

Poker Player: They said be careful with’em but heck, I just tossed’em in an empty feed sack and we went over to the White House.

Reporter: And turned them loose?

Poker Player: Yeah. And you should have seen those rats take off. I mean they were everywhere.

Reporter: I bet.

Poker Player: Along about then someone from the zoo figured out what the snakes were for and called over and told the guy who liked to stick his finger in my chest and he started screaming. Snakes! Snakes! Get out! Get out!

I ain't never seen a grown man get so excited over a couple of Chicken snakes.

Reporter: Works for me. So everybody ran out. No one was hurt.

Poker Player: Yeah. The finger guy kept saying that if the President and his family hadn’t been gone he’d have me arrested or something…. I told him the snakes were harmless and I’d been told that the Prez and family were gone and that was why we were doing this now.

Reporter: Did that calm him down?

Poker Player: Not much.

Reporter: So that’s why they were all angry with you.

Poker Player: Well, I thought so but I finally figured out it was that Fox News picture that they kept running every two hours for a week.

Reporter: Huh?

Poker Player: You know, the one with all the politicians running from the White House with the caption that read: “Obama out of the country! All rats gone from White House!”

If he hadn't been here he could not have raped her

Yeah, we do. A long way up.

EDMONDS, Wash. – The man accused of raping a woman behind an Edmonds grocery store has been deported at least four times in the past 15 years, reports KIRO Radio.

An officer responding to a woman's cry for help Sunday night found 46-year-old Jose Madrigal on top of the woman and arrested him.

According to court documents, the woman told police that Madrigal had followed her and offered her $35 for sex, but she said no. She said Madrigal then forced her into the bushes on the north side of the store and raped her.

Documents say Madrigal told police "Sometimes we have control in our brains, but we make mistakes."

The 28-year-old Edmonds woman was treated at a hospital.

Snohomish County prosecutors have charged Madrigal in district court with second degree rape. He is also is being held for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency.

A member of Arizona's top government utilities agency threw down the gauntlet in a letter to Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, threatening to cut off the city's power supply as retribution for the city's boycott of Arizona

"I received your message; please receive mine. As a statewide elected member of the Arizona Corporation Commission overseeing Arizona's electric and water utilities, I too am keenly aware of the 'resources and ties' we share with the city of Los Angeles," Pierce wrote.

"If an economic boycott is truly what you desire, I will be happy to encourage Arizona utilities to renegotiate your power agreements so Los Angeles no longer receives any power from Arizona-based generation."

Obama gives up to Mexico

I listened and watched TV today as our global leader, President Barack Hussein Obama said, (and I quote, verbatim)...."Your visit speaks to a truth of our time. In North America and the world, in the 21st century, we are defined not by our borders, but by our bonds."

Then, our global leader stood silently by, on white house grounds, while the Mexican President complained that, "Arizona law is forcing our people to face discrimination."

This is a new low, even for a Saudi King supplicant. I don't like it at all when my president sides with a foreign leader against one of the United States of America -- of which, President Obama, may I remind you, that there are fifty (not fifty-seven; remember? There are 57 Muslim countries in the world, but only 50 states in the USA. It might help you if you repeat that in a mirror a few times.)

Please, Click on this: Link

Hurry up, fellow Americans, put your encyclopedias in your safes before Google scrubs any remaining definition of the United States of America as a sovereign entity off the web. The only proof we'll have of the existence of the late, great USA is the spoken word and banned books.

It is important to note that it was George Bush who signed Agenda 21 not Barack Obama; so this warning is strictly bi-partisan. Furthermore, if you really wanted a "dang fence," Senator McSame, the bill you and your fellow Progressives signed into law authorizing it would have been funded and the fence, built. But no, you guys only voted for it because you had complicit assurance that it would never be funded. Plenty of money to feed kids into the wars.......

Why the Democrats and the Left hate Arizona 1070

While Lefties, Demos and Mexican activists chant "human rights" and "no one is illegal" it is always helpful to review the real motives for their actions.

If an election can turn on a sentence, this could be the one: “You don't need papers for voting.”

On Thursday night, Francine Busby, the Democratic candidate for the 50th Congressional District, was speaking before a largely Latino crowd in Escondido when she uttered those words. She said yesterday she simply misspoke.

But someone taped it and a recording began circulating yesterday. After she made that statement at the meeting, Busby immediately said: “You don't need to be a registered voter to help (the campaign).”

snip

Busby said she was invited to the forum at the Jocelyn Senior Center in Escondido by the leader of a local soccer league. Many of the 50 or so people there were Spanish speakers. Toward the end, a man in the audience asked in Spanish: “I want to help, but I don't have papers.”

It was translated and Busby replied: “Everybody can help, yeah, absolutely, you can all help. You don't need papers for voting, you don't need to be a registered voter to help.”

Link

The Democrats don't care if illegal aliens vote and now we have proof of why they are in a tizzy over Arizona 1070.

BTW - Busby lost the election. Most likely because of the backlash from what she said.

So be of good cheer. We can take back our country.

Why we have Airzona 1070

An Arizona man who has waged a 10-year campaign to stop a flood of illegal immigrants from crossing his property is being sued by 16 Mexican nationals who accuse him of conspiring to violate their civil rights when he stopped them at gunpoint on his ranch on the U.S.-Mexico border.

Roger Barnett, 64, began rounding up illegal immigrants in 1998 and turning them over to the U.S. Border Patrol, he said, after they destroyed his property, killed his calves and broke into his home.

snip

Trial continues Monday in the federal lawsuit, which seeks $32 million in actual and punitive damages for civil rights violations, the infliction of emotional distress and other crimes. Also named are Mr. Barnett's wife, Barbara, his brother, Donald, and Larry Dever, sheriff in Cochise County, Ariz., where the Barnetts live. The civil trial is expected to continue until Friday.

Now let me see.

Illegal aliens are trespassing and you catch them and turn them over to the BP.

Principal has students recite pledge of allegiance to Mexican flag

The principal of an elementary school instructed his students to stand during the recitation of a pledge to the Mexican flag during a diversity assembly recently, and he's been trying to backtrack ever since.

"We absolutely refuse to stand up and pledge allegiance to another country's flag," a mother whose daughter attends the school told talk show host Chris Baker on AM 740 KTRH radio. "Where is the sensitivity to the country and to the troops and the men and women that have fought and died for this country?"

The mother, identified only as Amy, said school officials gave all the children Mexican flags to wave and then asked everyone to stand up and pledge allegiance to the Mexican flag.

"Get out!" Baker shouted. "What school is that?"

It was Velasco Elementary in Clute, Texas, where Sam Williams is principal

snip

In a report in The Facts, Williams said the response to his action was "overwhelming."

"It's been a real trying ordeal and all I can say is I deeply apologize if anyone was offended by it – and I can see that they are," the principal said

He said the situation should have been done differently. "There's no way that we would repeat it," he told the news group.

Link

The above happened in September 2006. From the information in the following link, it appears that Sam Williams has left or was invited to leave. I was unable to determine which. Ms Laura Morris is now Principal.

You know, I have a certain amount of sympathy for Sam Williams. He fell into the trap of bowing to political correctness and was hurt. But he did it himself and I hope that he has a long and successful life away from educating our children.

Hopefully other teachers learned a lesson from this but I doubt that they did. What we should take from this is that we can take our schools and our country back.

Profiling

The light turned yellow, just in front of him. He did the right thing, stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection.

The tailgating woman was furious and honked her horn, screaming in frustration,
as she missed her chance to get through the intersection, dropping her cell phone and makeup.

As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up into the face of a very serious police officer. The officer ordered her to exit her car with her hands up.

He took her to the police station where she was searched, fingerprinted, photographed, and placed in a holding cell.

After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened the door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting officer was waiting with her personal effects.

He said, ''I'm very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping off the guy in front of you and cussing a blue streak at him. I noticed that on the car you were driving was the 'What Would Jesus Do' bumper sticker, the 'Choose Life' license plate holder, the 'Follow Me to Sunday-School' bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Christian fish emblem on the trunk, so naturally....I assumed you had stolen the car.''

Will the real fools please stand up.

Some people have the vocabulary to sum up things in a way so you can understand them. This quote came from the Czech Republic. Someone over there has it figured out. We have a lot of work to do.:

"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president."

"The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince.

The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."

It took a Czech to tell it like it is!!

To burqa or not to burqa

From the always interesting pen of George Handlery we have these notes on the wearing of the burqa in Europe.

4. Legislation that forbids the public use of burqas and other garbs that cover the entire body and the face, are becoming trendy in Europe. Three very different arguments are used to justify such bans. One is that the veil discriminates against women. Therefore, it is an expression of their subservience. Second, the wrap is considered to be an outward expression of a fundamentalist variety of Islamism. That is of an “ism” that intends to infringe upon the order and way of life of the host nation. Given this danger, the process by which pressure is applied on the majority needs to be disrupted. Third, there is a security argument. A head-to-toe camouflaged person’s identity cannot be ascertained. Furthermore, the tent worn hides the intentions of the wearer and is a potential cover for instruments that might harm bystanders. The burqa’s defenders’ best argument addresses itself to the first objection. They claim that the wearers do so voluntarily. The claim tends to be supported by a wearer or two. These tell reporters that they feel comfortable because they are protected from the perverted observers of their curves. In the interest of that, they wear the veil voluntarily.

This allegation of acting of their own volition reminds the writer of his own youth. He used to march on May 1st, November 7, and write letters to Stalin to congratulate him on his birthday. You either did this voluntarily while shouting enthusiastically and smiling ear-to-ear. Or you –and your family-experienced the crushing blows of the “fist” of the “toilers,” that is of the State Security. So it was voluntary. Totally. To avoid something that was assuredly worse.

Link

Truth is often shocking to many of the admirers of unlimited immigration into the US. They have little understanding of the strains that such activities can place on the host culture and even less understanding of the security problems of having completely covered people moving through crowds in this age of terrorism.

Truth be known, most of these non-Muslim people who argue that being able to conceal your intent to do harm to others is a Right operate under the theory that all harm happens to others and they are quite willing to let others suffer that harm, just as they are willing to not use all necessary force to defend ourselves quickly and with the least possible loss. Instead all responses must be proportionate designed to do the last possible harm yet somehow convince those willing to commit suicide that they should talk with us.

How utterly stupid.

Screwing around causes earthquakes

Repent you sinners!

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) - A prominent hard-line Iranian cleric who said promiscuity and immodest dress cause earthquakes says God may be holding off on natural disasters in the West in order to let people sin more and consign themselves to hell.
Kazem Sedighi sparked widespread derision with his pronouncements in a prayer sermon last month linking earthquakes with women's dress. In a new sermon Friday, he has defended and elaborated on his claim.

Sedighi notes that some might ask why there aren't more earthquakes and storms striking Western nations that are "up to their necks" in immorality.

He says the answer is that God allows some of those who "provoke His wrath" to continue sinning "so that they (eventually) go to the bottom of Hell."

So I guess hanging gays and stoning women aint bad over there.
