Alabama’s legislature has passed an Arizona style immigration bill which is now awaiting the signature of Governor Robert Bentley.  The bill was passed on votes of 67-29 in the House and 25-7 in the Senate.  The new law will allow for law enforcement to investigate the legal status of those they reasonably suspect of being in the country illegally.

It will also make it a crime for an illegal alien to apply for a job in the state.  The law will also require all employers to use E-Verify to establish the citizenship of all applicants.  Sanctuary cities will be outlawed.  Further it will make it a crime to transport and or harbor illegal aliens.  And I like this one best of all.  Any business twice convicted of hiring illegals will lose their business license.

The very same economists who were hyping the lie of a recovery are now saying that the unemployment rate is going to stay about the same at 9% through 2012.  99ers, bear in mind that as hundreds of thousands more join our ranks they will cease to be counted.  This is one aspect of long term unemployment that continues to be buried along with the 99ers it represents.

New polls are showing that 80% of Americans are angry at “Business as usual” in Washington DC.  Well, duh.  The fact is the unemployment rate has been at 9% or higher 23 out of the past 25 months and with the renewed foreclosures causing home prices to plummet again, even those still employed can see the writing on the wall.

On March 19th American war planes attacked the sovereign country of Libya.  This act was a violation of international and United States law.  The people of the United States were told that the act was necessary in order to prevent the deaths of innocent civilians.  All through the Middle East and Northern Africa innocent civilians are being shot every day and these actions are being condemned as the crimes against humanity they represent.

However, last Friday when unarmed protesters from Syria crossed an imaginary line on its border with Israel they were shot down in cold blood.  For two days the outrage went without explanation except to say that the protesters had provoked the Israelis.  The protesters were simply walking onto land that had been taken from them by the invading Israelis.

Representative Dennis Kucinich (D) OH, in an interview on MSNBC, said the House was giving President Obama two weeks to explain his actions in Libya.  We all know that the US air invasion of Libya was and is a violation of US and international law.  Kucinich said during the interview that Gaddafi was, before the violence broke out, trying to implement a democratic system at the local level.

Another measure introduced in the House that called for an immediate withdrawal from Libya was of course defeated.  I guess we have to continue enforcing that no-fly-zone by attacking the Libyan ground forces and bombing Gaddafi’s home.

Florida’s Governor Rick Scott has signed a new law that would make it mandatory for welfare recipients to be drug tested.  Scott says American tax payer dollars should not be subsidizing the drug habits of the poor.  Scott recently made it mandatory for state employees working under him to undergo random urinalyses.  On a CNN interview Scott was asked what evidence he had that the poor were using welfare monies to buy drugs.  He was asked this question twice.  And twice he said there are studies that indicate that it is true.

In a follow up interview, CNN talked to Howard Simon of the ACLU.  Simon said that only one study of drug use among welfare recipients had been conducted in Florida.  He further stated the study was ended when no evidence of said drug use could be found.

It is being reported that if the United States Congress does not raise our debt limit, Moody’s is going to drop our credit rating.  So just what or who is Moody’s?  Well I will tell you.  Moody’s Corporation is the parent company of Moody’s Investors Service, which provides credit ratings and research covering debt instruments and securities.  Moody’s is also the organization that gave Triple A ratings to the bad derivatives made up of the toxic mortgages that resulted in the economic collapse.

It worked like this.  The banks made loans that they doubted could be paid back; high risk, high interest loans.  They then packaged those bad loans into derivatives, after which they hired Moody’s to evaluate these toxic loans and give them a fraudulent Triple A rating, after which they were purchased by institutions like workers’ pension plans consisting of 401Ks.

It seems every politician is now attempting to make our Constitution a buzz word in every speech.  Sarah Palin has a copy of it on the side of her bus.  Well I have a message for those who think they can hijack the cause of the American people of the American race.  Constitution is not a buzz word.  It is a living reality and we the people are understanding its true meaning more and more every day, while people like Michelle Bachman and Sarah Palin attempt to degrade its significance by commercializing it.

Michelle Bachman and Sarah Palin are laughable in their lack of knowledge of American history.  Their attempts to assert the righteousness of their neo-con elitist’s views using our Constitution, is an insult to our intelligence.

On June 28, 1919 the Treaty of Versailles is signed.  The carpet bagging robber barons move in on Germany, which is suffering a depression.  The Nazi Party, formerly the German Workers Party, rise to power during the 1920s.  The party’s leader, Adolf Hitler, is appointed Chancellor of Germany by the president Hindenburg in 1933.

Adolf Hitler has his secret service burn down the German Parliament, Reichstag, on February 22, 1933 and blames it on his political enemies, which are the national socialist that put him into power.  Between June 30th and July 2nd comes the “Night of the Longknives” when Adolf kills his political enemies, the Brownshirts, again, the same socialists that put him into power.  By 1938 Germany has rebuilt its industry and is beginning its invasion of Europe.

Barbara Lee: With Unemployment Rate Still High, We Must Reject Drastic Republican Cuts to Programs That Help the Most Vulnerable and Needy Populations

June 3, 2011

Washington, DC – Congresswoman Barbara Lee (D-CA) released the following statement this morning in reaction to the May jobs report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics:

“While the overall economy may be showing signs of improvement, too many people are unable to find work and millions are still feeling a great deal of pain.  Clearly there is still much work to do to ensure that our economic recovery is felt in every community.  The national unemployment rate rose to 9.1%.  That number rises to 16.2% in the African-American community and 11.9% in the Hispanic community, both increases from last month.  And among teenagers, the unemployment rate is at 24%.

Only 54,000 jobs created in May, the fake lie unemployment rate is up to 9.1%.  There are not enough products in all the turtle wax factories around the world to polish this turd, but Bloomberg had to try.  First they said the increasing unemployment is due to more people who had given up going out and looking for a job again.  No sale.

There has been a gross loss of jobs in just about every industry.  The filthy rich corporations are firing, not hiring.  On Bloomberg they said “Don’t look at the unemployment rate.”  They say we have created 2 million jobs, which they say is keeping us at an even keel with new people entering the job force from graduates, and get this, foreigners coming here to work on visas.

422,000 new filings for unemployment this week and how is this devastation reported?  “Great news, new filings were down 2000 from the week before. “ I guess that is kind of like, “Great news, your hand got cut off instead of your arm.”

These dirt bags in the 112th Congress have not done one damn thing to address the jobs problem and all they can tell us now is what they have been telling us since they destroyed our economy.  “We need to give more tax cuts to the filthy rich – for jobs.  We need to deregulate the robber baron industry – for jobs.  We need to take Social Security and Medicare, please just let us we are only going to screw those 55 and younger – and it’s for jobs.  Cut welfare and food stamps and give that money to the corporations – for jobs.  Fire a million public workers – for jobs.  Grant amnesty to 30 million illegals working our jobs – for jobs.”
