Immigration Leakage

As we’ve noted on numerous occasions the debate over “immigration reform” is much ado about nothing.
“What the hell do (people) think a ‘pathway to citizenship’ is?” we wrote recently, “… (b)eyond a glaringly obvious admission that America lacks the resources and political will to deport anybody.”
Oh, and nobody’s building a wall on the U.S.-Mexican border [...]

DEPORTATION NATION? NOT ON OBAMA’S WATCH
U.S. President Barack Obama couldn’t get his amnesty legislation passed by the U.S. Congress, so he’s decided to go around them.
Obama’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced last Friday that it will “defer action” on illegal immigrants who meet the criteria set forth in his amnesty bill – which means [...]

Shut The Front Door!

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) – a division of the Department of Homeland Security – arrested more than 3,000 criminal and fugitive immigrants last week as part of a sting dating back to last May.
Amazing, isn’t it? We have a confirmed report of the federal government actually enforcing its immigration laws (which by the [...]

Millions Of Peaches

Not long ago we played “Peaches” as our song of the day in homage to one of South Carolina’s biggest crops …
Next to California, the Palmetto state is the biggest peach producer in America – growing 90,000 tons of the yummy fruit each year. In fact, our state loves peaches so much we built a [...]

Fee-Laden SC Immigration Bill Passes Senate

Three years after telling voters that they had passed the “toughest immigration law in America,” South Carolina Senators on Thursday morning were back at the drawing board …
By a 28-8 vote, the S.C. Senate approved a so-called “Arizona-style immigration bill” sponsored by Sen. Larry Grooms (R-Berkeley). Several key legislative leaders failed to vote on the [...]

Obama’s DREAM

While he attempts to stake out some ground in the “center” of the American political spectrum regarding tax policy, U.S. President Barack Obama is also asking a lame duck Democratic Congress to pass the “Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act,” or the DREAM act.
This legislation would grant amnesty to an estimated 2.1 million [...]

Obama’s Quiet Border Boost

According to lawyers for the administration of U.S. President Barack Obama, the federal government lacks the resources it needs to handle the implementation of Arizona’s new immigration law – which would have granted local law enforcement officers the authority to check a person’s immigration status while investigating other crimes.
In fact, the Arizona law’s potential to [...]

Immigrant Explosion

Five percent of America’s children – nearly 4 million kids – were born to illegal immigrants according to a study released Wednesday by the Pew Hispanic Center.  Because they were born on U.S. soil, each of these children were granted American citizenship.  In addition to these “anchor babies,” the study also found another 1.1 million [...]

Who Is This Calderon S.O.B.?

By FITSNews || The last time we checked, federal law required legal aliens to carry “papers.”  It’s pretty cut and dried, actually, which is why for the life of us we can’t understand all the controversy surrounding the state of Arizona’s new immigration law.
What does it do?  Well, it enforces that existing federal law [...]

Use Of Illegal Aliens Probed In Upstate School District

By FITSNews || Let’s be honest … whenever the terms “probing” and “Anderson County, S.C.” appear together in the same sentence, the end result is usually not good.
Don’t believe us?
Head on over to the picnic shelter at Darwin Wright Park (a secluded, 27-acre park on a peninsula overlooking Lake Hartwell) and find out for yourself. [...]

Mexicans Are Honest

If you thought the Mexican invasion was nearing an end, think again.
A new survey released Wednesday reveals that one-third of the country (i.e. those who haven’t already immigrated to America) would love to do so if given the opportunity. Also, nearly one-fifth of Mexicans said they would move “without papers.”
Published by the Pew Research [...]

Finally, An Immigration Solution

America’s immigration problem is, at its root, an embarrassment of riches.
Too many Americans need too many things – things which they’re willing to pay for in money from their heretofore securely-salaried careers, but unwilling to pay for in labor.
“Labor” is the domain of jobs, positions which Americans long ago eschewed for “careers.” It was a [...]
