Sue them all

If Jim DeMint's attitude is genuine it might bode well for the future of the Republican Party, and for America. But it may be too late. Once an amnesty bill passes his attitude won't matter.

Consider this your rant warning.

Today a local radio talk show host by the name of Mike Fleming opened his show with a description of his nightmare auto accident with a suspected illegal alien. Clues? Well, the man didn't have a license, didn't have insurance, and the vehicle had a paper tag, he didn't (or wouldn't) speak English, and he tried to leave the scene. Maybe he was late for a job nobody wanted to do.

Whether Fleming was at fault or not (he says the other guy was) doesn't matter. What matters is the now rampant and flagrant disregard of the law and the enforcement thereof, not just from the immigrants but from everyone in the system. The people who pay their bills, register their cars, update their licenses, and pay their taxes on time are being treated like a bunch of chumps.

Fleming went on to point out a poignant story about real estate agents laughing at all the money they are making by selling homes to illegals, but that's not at all surprising. Just think how much cash goes into the tills of merchants and state sales tax coffers all over the nation due to these illegals spending their under table cash. We might as well just remove "In God we Trust" from the coinage now and replace it with "God". Maybe the illegals could help somehow, it might be cheaper.

But hey, it's not totally about money. The Catholic Church's nauseatingly unflinching support of this criminal activity is most likely rooted in the historic denomination of the immigrants more than walking the talk of the Gospel. Jesus said "render unto Caesar", remember guys? And the Democrats? Their eyes have been in an LSD-like haze for years just thinking all those potential registered voters.

You may be following Michelle Malkin's coverage of the actress murdered by the illegal in New York. It's funny, Cindy Sheehan can rant about her son volunteering for Iraq and being killed while serving and she becomes a media darling, but just let someone mention this situation publicly and another march might break out demanding that illegals get their rights or how we stole the country. Something about absolute moral authority, I believe.

Since our enforcement apparatus has gone AWOL it might be time to round up some lawyers and start suing some folks. Start with the contractor and go all the way to the White House. Heck, if someone can sue Clinton for sexual harrasment, Rumsfeld for war crimes, and Bush for trying to eavesdrop on enemy phone calls, you'd think a few might care about the destruction of orderly society.

Rant off.

MORE 11/15/06

Here's more evidence of orderly society gone-amuck:

Arellano, 31, who has taken refuge in the Methodist church during the past three months, learned that her son Saul had succeeded. Mexican lawmakers passed a resolution Tuesday asking President Bush to suspend his mother's deportation and that of any other illegal immigrant parents of U.S. citizens.

"Who would Jesus deport?" says the mother's shirt. She's misguided, of course. We've been reminded that whatever Jesus might do or say cannot have any bearing in matters relating to law and government.

THE GAY FACTOR 11/16/06

No, not gay illegals. John Gay, lobbyist extraordinaire:

As the head of the Essential Worker Immigration Coalition (EWIC), Gay represents a fearsome coalition of businesses. The depth and breadth of its membership and its member organizations' membership is such that if you attempted to boycott the businesses backing open borders and massive immigration, you'd have to go naked and stop eating.

If this article is even close to being accurate it explains what everyone has already suspected. There may be no way to stop this juggernaut. Show 'em the money!

MO MONEY, MO MONEY! 11/16/06

This was news in Memphis several days ago, but it's worth preserving in this post for posterity:

"I don't think it's physically possible or fiscally possible to deport 12 million folks," said Bob Byrd, chairman and CEO of the Bank of Bartlett.

About 18 months ago, the community bank started a mortgage program for people without Social Security numbers.

While some people without Social Security numbers are here legally, many who don't have the numbers are illegal immigrants.

"We're doing this because we think it's right," Byrd said. "We're doing this because it's legal. And we're doing this because it's profitable."
