A terrorist dictator welcomed in one of our supposedly great universities - instead of great, they are apparently like Berkley, and like most universities, have mostly ultra-liberal professors teaching anti-American propaganda and trying to influence the minds of young, uninquiring students. The idea that these universities are not teaching and hoping that America will not survive leaves one the willing suspension of disbelief.

Carter, still out there criticizing the Bush administration, contrary to established protocol - his administration, the worst in American history, without a doubt. Noticed that Clinton and Obama were two of the people voting not to condemn the moveon.org ad that 72/25 Senators voted for. If you can’t say no to a fringe lunatic group, how can you expect the American people to trust you to lead this country? I think not.

Heard again from Dan Rather, a real Bush hater, that he is suing CBS and Viacom because it was their fault he tried to bushwhack Bush with known faulty information - that it was THEIR fault he lost his INTEGRITY as a NON-BIASED, INVESTIGATIVE reporter. He sold that long ago. Columbia university putting Ahmadinejad appearance down to a free speech issue - what else would you expect from universities in this country staffed and led by ultra-liberal anti-American professors in their push to destroy America? The best way to influence young minds is to make sure the only information they receive is of these professors’ choosing. Have seen college students asked questions about America’s history on TV. Their inadequate answers and knowledge leads me to believe that they are not taught anything of revelance about history or anything that reflects well on America.

One of the biggest stories of the day is the Jena six. Seems one youth named Bell cannot get out on bail of $90,000. Where are all the deep pockets of black entertainers, black sports figures making FABULOUS amounts of money, black CEOs of major corporations, such as TIME Warner, Oprah, who gives away cars to complete audiences, and all those people spouting PLATITUDES? Then, of course, you have the charities setup in the billions by Bill Gates and Warren Buffet. I think that the ‘S’ chip program the Democrats are so concerned for could be funded easily by these massive charity amounts, but guess these two all-caring people are not concerned with charities for Americans. I bet it earns more daily from its investments than it spends for TRUE charity needs, such as childrens hospitals, childrens burn centers, childrens cancer hospitals, childrens eye centers, and on and on. I wish they would talk less and act MORE.

Now, finally, after France and England are about to lose their people’s fidelity and allegiance, they have become concerned about their immigration problem and are taking action. I would wish this country would take action BEFORE the SAME THING happens to US. See attached:

Anti-illegals bill sparks uproar in France

WashingtonTimes.com

September 20, 2007

By Elizabeth Bryant - PARIS — The welcome mat is vanishing for immigrants in France as lawmakers debate tough new legislation and the government seeks to enforce deportation quotas for illegal aliens.

A draft bill, set for vote by the French National Assembly as early as tomorrow, would establish new requirements for would-be immigrants, including language and cultural values exams. Its more controversial clauses would introduce voluntary DNA testing and legalize some data gathering based on race and ethnicity.

While the legislation must still be debated in the French Senate, its more problematic provisions have sparked widespread uproar, with some analysts suggesting it will just drive immigration underground.

“The desire to go to Europe is very strong,” said Catherine de Wenden, an immigration expert at the National Center for Scientific Research, a Paris think tank. “And the tougher the policy, the more likely it will lead to illegal immigration.”

Several hundred protesters gathered in front of the National Assembly in Paris yesterday, brandishing banners denouncing the legislation and the country”s center-right president, Nicolas Sarkozy, who is himself the son of a Hungarian immigrant.

“France has a tradition of immigration — it’s part of its wealth,” said Majid Messoudene, a 31-year-old ethnic Algerian from the immigrant-heavy suburb of Saint Denis. “Whether the government likes it or not, we”ll remain a country of immigration. And we”ll help the illegals and prevent deportations as much as possible.”

Supporters argue that France, which suffered weeks of riots in immigrant-heavy Paris suburbs in the fall of 2005, needs to set limits to immigration to preserve its economy and national identity.

“A responsible management of migratory flows appears the only possible policy,” Immigration Minister Brice Hortefeux told parliament, describing the country’s current integration model as a failure.

But the bill has roused a range of critics including leftist politicians, scientists, human rights groups, the Vatican and even French police and members of Sarkozy’s own party and government.

“If they’re necessary, expulsions [of illegal immigrants] should be decided on a case-by-case basis,” Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner said during an interview on RTL radio.

The legislation makes good on a promise by Mr. Sarkozy to introduce “chosen immigration,” favoring skilled workers who can fill critical labor gaps. In his previous position as interior minister, he championed two laws hardening the country’s immigration policy.

Mr. Sarkozy stirred a furor last year by deporting illegal immigrant students and alienated many foreigners with his tough handling of the 2005 riots by suburban youths, many of whom were of Arab and African extraction.

This year, Mr. Sarkozy has directed authorities to deport 25,000 illegals this year, compared to 15,000 in 2004. His immigration minister chastized regional prefects last week for failing to meet the quotas.

But the president has also championed affirmative action or what he dubs “positive discrimination” in jobs and education. And his new government is striking in its ethnic diversity, starting with Justice Minister Rachida Dati, the daughter of North African immigrants.

Mr. Sarkozy’s immigration policies have played well among ordinary citizens, as did the slogan he once borrowed from far-right leader Jean-Marie le Pen: “France, love it or leave it.”

A survey published yesterday in Le Figaro newspaper found 74 percent of respondents favored immigration quotas. Most also supported French language requirements for would-be immigrants and opposed blanket regularization of illegals, according to the OpinionWay poll.

France”s choosier approach toward immigration is reflected elsewhere in Europe, where countries are turning away boatloads of poor Africans, while trying to attract better qualified foreign workers.

British Prime Minister Gordon Brown this month introduced a new immigration policy very similar to that of Mr. Sarkozy, requiring that new immigrants first learn to speak English and throwing up barriers to unskilled applicants.

The policies are expected to reduce the number of people entering Britain by at least 35,000 a year.

EU Justice Commissioner Franco Frattini, noting that the 27-member European Union attracts only 5 percent of skilled migrants compared to 55 percent who head for the United States, has vowed to introduce a labor “blue card” next month.

As Europe’s answer to the U.S. “green card,” the document would allow holders to stay for an initial two-year period and eventually become qualified for longer-term residency or to work in other EU states.

But some analysts say graying Europe needs all kinds of immigrants, including unskilled ones.

“Immigration has been a major concern in almost every European society,” said Hugo Brady, a research fellow at the Center for European Reform, in London. “But at the point where European societies are so anxious about the issue, economists and others say we”re going to need 20 million more immigrants in the next 50 years.”

Even Canada is now concerned about receiving our illegals on their door steps and the costs incurred, blaming our Homeland Security for taking action against illegal immigrants. See attached:

Refugees pose ‘potential crisis’

Mayor Francis asks the feds for help to deal with influx of Mexicans

The Windsor Star

Wednesday, September 19, 2007

CREDIT: Scott Webster, The Windsor Star Concepcion Montiel and her daughter Perla, 2, arrived in Windsor Monday by bus with two other families. Montie said a lack of jobs in Florida, the fear of deportation and the perceived opportunities promised in Canada persuaded her to move her family north.

With city shelters filled and a surge of further refugee claimants expected to flood into Windsor, Mayor Eddie Francis is pleading for financial help from Ottawa.

“When there is a possibility of adding thousands to the local social assistance system as a result of refugee claimants crossing the border into Windsor, we will become overwhelmed and our current resources will not suffice,” Francis wrote in a letter sent Wednesday to Prime Minister Stephen Harper.

Over the past three weeks, 45 families and 31 individuals — approximately 200 people — entered Canada at the Detroit River crossings and applied in Windsor for shelter and social assistance after filing refugee claims with the Canada Border Services Agency. Municipal agencies dealing with the sudden influx of mainly Mexican refugee applicants are renting out hotel rooms and bracing for predicted thousands more to come.

“We don’t have the means, ability or capacity to deal with this additional cost. We are not able to deal with this potential crisis locally,” Francis wrote Harper.

“I don’t believe that Windsor’s residents and taxpayers should have to foot the bill for U.S. immigration policy,” Francis told The Star. He was referring to the suspected source of the problem — a recently begun crackdown on illegal immigrants in economically struggling regions of the U.S. South.

With the bulk of the latest arrivals being long-time Mexican illegals dislodged from their homes and workplaces in southwestern Florida, fingers are being pointed at unscrupulous outfits charging money and then directing desperate individuals and their families toward the Windsor border crossing.

“We are aware of these operations — they have been advertising incorrect and false information,” said Marina Wilson, a spokeswoman for Citizenship and Immigration Canada. Wilson said Canadian immigration authorities have started contacting the Mexican and Haitian communities in Florida, as well as local media there, to get the word out that nothing has changed in Canadian refugee policy.

“The fact someone wants to come here for better economic opportunity or a better quality of life … that’s no basis for a successful refugee claim,” said Immigration Refugee Board (IRB) spokesman Charles Hawkins.

But a group operating out of Naples, Fla., vowed to continue sending the so-called economic refugees to Windsor.

“They ask, ‘Is Canada an option?’ and I say, ‘Yes, it is an option,’” Jacques Sinjuste of the Jerusalem Haitian Community Center said in a phone interview Wednesday. For a US$300 “donation” (most of those interviewed in Windsor claim they paid US$400), JHCC staff download forms off the Internet, help applicants fill them out and give directions on how to get to the Canadian border.

Sinjuste said he’s simply providing a “referral” service.

“Most of the time when the people come, they say they’ve heard something (about Canada). I say that I’ve heard the same thing,” he said.

Jacquie Rumiel, director of programs for new Canadians at the YMCA, where refugee claimants are referred by Windsor’s border guards, said the new people she’s seeing are “mostly” Mexicans coming from Florida.

To be successful, refugee claimants must prove they are fleeing persecution at home, something most of the Mexicans arriving in Windsor would be hard-pressed to do. The IRB’s Hawkins said there was only a 13 per cent acceptance rate of refugee claims filed by Mexican nationals during the first six months of the year, compared to an overall rate of 47 per cent.

But the average processing time for a refugee claim in Canada is currently 14.2 months, said Hawkins, a period during which the applicant is eligible for financial and other support. A failed claimant then also has the right to seek leave to appeal his or her rejection to federal court.

Despite the high number of failed applications cited by the IRB, Sinjuste said he gets calls to his Naples centre from “a lot of people” who’ve arrived in Windsor.

“They say everything is okay — they are doing good, going to schools, going to work,” he said.

Sinjuste said he was visited last week by an official from the Canadian consulate general in Miami but couldn’t remember if he was told to stop helping economic refugees go to Canada.

“I don’t think they tell me that,” he said. Federal bureaucrats confirmed the meeting but said they couldn’t divulge details.

Others are warning about the types of activities Sinjuste is engaged in.

“The way he’s misleading the most vulnerable is infuriating,” said Pegg Roberts, executive director of Detroit’s Freedom House, which runs a shelter and assists asylum-seekers with their refugee claims. Sinjuste said he uses the Freedom House website to download refugee claim forms and advises the people he assists to seek help there.

“I do not help economic refugees,” said Roberts, adding her non-profit organization assists the fleeing victims of torture and war crimes and has no affiliation with the JHCC.

“This is a problem the U.S. has allowed to create. It’s really unfair for Canada to have to face this,” said MP Joe Comartin (NDP — Windsor-Tecumseh), his Party’s public safety and national security critic.

“This is very much being driven by (the U.S. Department of) Homeland Security,” he said, predicting that, “with few exceptions,” most of these “economic claimants” will eventually be sent back.
