90 Day Plan to Stop 90% of the Immigration and Border Crisis

bordermovie.com — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 02:21:17 GMT

Withhold the Vote Petition! Ninety-Day Plan To STOP 90 Percent of the Immigration Crisis An Open Letter to Senators Obama and McCain: As voting citizens of the United States, we are hereby withholding our votes in the upcoming election until law and order is brought to the entire southern border. Our hearts go out to the American border ranchers, and the young Mexican girls and women who are brutally raped in our southern deserts. As presidential candidates you have both promised to secure the border, but as senators neither of you have acted to bring any relief to the people suffering in the border region. We the people have a 90 day plan that would alleviate at least 90 percent of the current border crisis. Implementing the plan would have a profound life-saving impact on our ranchers and the young women who are brutalized by drug smugglers and coyotes. As voting citizens, we are asking each of you to endorse our plan and enter into a contract with America—promising to follow through with our four point plan. By endorsing our plan, we will endorse you—with our votes on Election Day. We anticipate being one million voters strong by November ...

Stop Funding La Raza and MEChA

ConcernedMom — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 15:24:48 GMT

Background: Groups like La Raza and La Mecha are racist groups comprised of ethnocentric Hispanics who want to reconquer Aztlan for Mexico. Their very existence is a danger to our nation. They currently receive federal funding to promote their racist beliefs. This federal funding must be stopped. Racist groups of any variety should not be supported by our government. Miguel Perez of Cal State-Northridge's MEChA chapter said "The ultimate ideology is the liberation of Aztlan. Communism would be closest [to it]. Once Aztlan is established, ethnic cleansing would commence: Non-Chicanos would have to be expelled -- opposition groups would be quashed because you have to keep power." Jose Angel Gutierrez, professor, University of Texas, Arlington; founder of La Raza Unida political party; and beneficiary of American generosity said "We have an aging white America. . . . They are dying. . . . They are xxxxing their pants with fear! I love it!" "We have got to eliminate the gringo, and what I mean by that is if the worst comes to the worst, WE HAVE GOT TO KILL HIM." The Petition States: Members of Congress, La Raza and MEChA are racist groups. Members of these groups should be barred ...

Restore Our Congress, End Usurped Power

CasaWood — Thu, 17 Jan 2008 15:47:15 GMT

Background: The United States Congress was established under Article 1 of the Constitution of the United States. It is the critical branch of government responsible for making laws. The organizational structure for both the House and Senate were clearly defined in the Constitution. The House (in 1899) and the Senate (in 1920) significantly altered the organizational structure based on party politics which has led to a usurpation of the reins of the legislative branch by the Democratic and Republican Parties. The Senate Organization Chart clearly shows leadership positions such as the Majority and Minority Leader which are not included in the Constitution according to the Senate’s own history of these positions. These positions were gradually introduced and are not elected by the people but by the parties. The history and tradition has reached such a level the Senate website states a person holding title “ has the right to be called upon first if several senators are seeking recognition by the presiding officer, which enables him to offer motions or amendments before any other senator.” This ‘right’ usurps the Constitutional right of all other elected representatives of the people. The House Organization Chart and history also is filled with party ...

PUTTING OUR CHILDREN AND THEIR SAFETY FIRST WHILE IN SCHOOL

GL Carpenter — Thu, 17 Jan 2008 15:39:28 GMT

Background: On May 21, 1976 A Yuba City, California High School bus filled with its brightest and most musically talented youth set out for Martinez California where they would be performing. They did not make it to that performance. Why? Because the State of California had so neglected the care of the school bus that its mechanical failure during a critical turn on a freeway turnpike resulted in the bus not being able to adequately make the turn and it plummeted over 30 feet and landed upside down killing or maiming most of the students. Had the bus been adequately serviced and manintained and had the state provided seat belts for all the students it is most certain this trajedy could have been avoided. You can verify this through archives of the Appeal Democrat newsaper of Yuba City, California or google Yuba City High School bus accident of 1976 in Martinez, California. The petition states: To President Bush and National Board of Education governing all policies and prodecures affecting our public school systems. This petition states that all school buses of state ran schools will be mechanically inspected and updated and repaired every week and a log of such maintenace ...

SUPPORT BROADCAST FREEDOM BILL H.R. 2905

VEyes — Wed, 17 Oct 2007 12:30:23 GMT

Background Some congressional leaders including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., reportedly have suggested that Congress needs to resurrect the former "Fairness Doctrine," where the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) would have the power to sanction or even shut down radio stations that do not satisfy a vague standard of giving enough time to both sides of controversial subjects. In 1987, the FCC found that the “Fairness Doctrine” had the effect of stifling open discussion of issues and could lead to abusive enforcement by government officials, so the FCC dropped it. H.R. 2905 and S. 1742, sponsored respectively by Rep. Mike Pence (R-IN), Senators John Thune (R-SD) and Norm Coleman (R-MN), prohibits the FCC from reinstating the “Fairness Doctrine,” which was in effect until 1987 when the FCC withdrew it. As of October 2007, H.R. 2905 and S. 1742 are in the first stage of the legislative process where they are being considered in committee and may undergo significant changes in markup sessions. It is important for free speech to contact our congressional representative and tell them we support to bills H.R. 2905 and S. 1742 for Broadcast Freedom as they currently are written. ...

40 Days for Life

St Michael, Pray for us — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 19:55:51 GMT

BACKGROUND: This fall, 89 cities in 33 states across the nation will unite for a unique pro-life campaign called 40 Days for Life -- an intensive effort designed to raise awareness, save lives, bring healing, and prepare America for the beginning of the end of abortion. THE PETITION STATES: To: Attention especially to our local, state, and federal representatives. The Declaration of Independence states, "We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life..........." If the first mentioned of these, "Unalienable Rights," is denied as it is 4000+ times a day in this country by abortion, the rest lose their value. If Life is not protected, what is there of Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness? We have allowed this Holocaust to go on far too long. We have allowed our leaders to brush it aside. We, and they, have allowed the United States Declaration of Independence to be obviously ignored for too long. We have allowed our tax dollars to support organizations such as Planned Parenthood (largest provider of abortion in the U.S.) for far too long funding ...

Stop Senator Cedillo's funding for illegals

jclassboat — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 19:05:03 GMT

1. Background: California State Senator Gilbert Cedillo, District 22, has tried to legislate Drivers Licenses for illegals, financial aid to illegal immigrant students and other aid, all at the cost of US Taxpayers. Cedillo apparently places a higher priority on illegals than the US citizens he was elected to represent. According to LA County Supervisor Antonovich, in 2005, illegal immigrants cost California Taxpayers 360 MILLION in health care and 160 MILLION in jail related expenses. This does not include huge impacts on the education system. A recently comissioned study by San Diego County, (see NC Times)estimates that illegal immigrants cost San Diego County over 256 MILLION dollars in 2006. 2. The Petition States" Senator Cedillo, stop your abuse of California Taxpayers by legislating aid for illegal immigrants. You should be protecting California from fiscal irresponsibility, not legislating it as you are doing. www.aroundthecapitol.com/billtrack/billview.html?bill=SB_160 www.alipac.us/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=462286 http://www.nctimes.com/articles/2007/09/08/news/top_stories/19_46_779_7_07.txt
