Michelle Obama's "guest."

We have reached the point in our national, insane, topsy-turvy world where legal definitions have flipped 180 degrees.We are a few years late, but Orwell's prophetic "1984," and the word he coined as "double speak" (as well as "double-think') has not only made the dictionaries, but is now being applied as a substitute for the law.

The woman King was referring to certainly meets the definition of deportable according to the law. I don't know what it is going to take for supposedly intelligent and educated people to crawl out of Alice's rabbit hole and return to reality.  What part of "illegal" do they not understand? Before you throw stones at Congressman King, check out the law.  All you have to do is type it in your browser, and it pops up immediately.  8 USC 1227.

"Legal" means you enter the U.S. with a valid passport and visa, both of which have expiration dates.  Nor will your browser hesitate to pop-up that one,   Try it, zombies.  8 USC 1101(16).

Fernando Espuelas, Hispanic Demagogue, Falsely States That GOP Writes Off Hispanic Votes

  • The main beef of Fernando Espuelas, a devout follower of Barack Obama, seems to be that the GOP chose not to use a Spanish language television (i.e., Univision) network to cover their 2016 presidential primaries.

    As one fluent and degreed in Spanish, I can tell you that Spanish network commentators are anything but unbiased in their interpretations of American politics. They come from the same school as Espuelas. They pander to, and depend upon, a certain Hispanic underclass, most notably recent immigrants, to advance their own selfish agendas. Therefore, the GOP made a wise move, whether by choice or by accident. The GOP welcomes all Americans and those who believe in American values.

    In spite of his effort, neither Fernando Espuelas nor his fellow “Hispanic” demagogues will have any significant impact on the next presidential election. Intelligent, educated, American Hispanics do not use Spanish as their primary language. Ambitious, self-serving demagogues like Espuelas, in order to protect their own stature, must perforce keep some Hispanics beholden to the yoke of perennial underclass citizenship. Those that neither speak, read nor write English, will forever be handicapped in the struggle for economic equality,

    English is not only the unofficial language of the United States, it is the unofficial language of the world. Successful scientists worldwide learn English in order to go to primary sources of information. They know that there is never a 100% accurate translation of anything technical. Neither Bill Gates nor Steve Jobs wrote anything technical in Spanish. German, not Spanish, is probably the most popular second language that American science students study, because of that country’s technical advances.

Is Juarez, Mexico now a safe, border city?

Today, the El Paso Times online edition had an article reporting the dedication of a city park to the police.  The police in Juarez certainly deserve this honor, considering their number of casualties in the Juarez cartel war. This is no doubt a story to try to get the tourists business back after the cartel war winds down. 
The Sinaloa mob has always been in control of the Government (and essentially the media), but they have not yet regained control of the petty criminals after being challenged and distracted by the misguided Juarez cartel and its alliance with a few other smaller ones. The petty criminals are still taking advantage of the post-cartel-war condition. They have their eye on the tourists, and if they think you are the most vulnerable target available, you will be lucky to escape, losing only your money and valuables.
When old-time corruption returns the city to the status quo, and we can buy our way out of trumped-up misdemeanors, it will be a safer city. Then, the petty criminals will be diminished because most of them will seem to have simply disappeared off the face of the planet. We won't get an official announcement of the return to the status quo because it will evolve slowly. I'll let the naive out-of-town survivors be the litmus paper to test the waters before I go back again
