Rasmussen Poll: Majority Say Political Class Ignores Voter Opinion

The Rasmussen quiz-masters tend to ask more interesting questions than some polling organizations, and today’s item is enormously fascinating: a great majority of voters believe the country’s rulers don’t give a rat’s ass about the opinions of the electorate.

And — no surprise — one of the most indicative issues in this regard is immigration.

68% Say [...]

California: Whitman Goofs on Immigration

In California, E-bay billionaire Meg Whitman is running for governor as a Republican, and spent more than $70 million of her own money to win the primary. In that primary, Steve Poizner increased his poll numbers by campaigning against illegal immigration and its huge cost to the state, and Whitman responded by claiming she was [...]

Nevada's Senator Reid Snubs Jobless Citizens

Senator Reid may think that he can squish his Tea Party opponent flat as a tortilla, but remarks like this on local Nevada media won’t win him any votes.

Reid Declines Vote on Illegal Worker Plan, 8 News Now, Las Vegas, July 13, 2010

LAS VEGAS — In this election season, Senator Harry Reid’s campaign events often [...]

Obama's Adoring Coalition Melting Away

Aren’t Chicago pols supposed to be slick wheeler-dealers, who can trade seats and manipulate the electorate with great expertise? Obie must not be quite the smooth operator we were led to believe, judging from his klutzy handling of tough political sledding of late.

Interestingly, the public’s image of the ideal Obama, carefully crafted during the campaign [...]

Democrats Plan Post-Election Surprises for Voters

There has been concerned discussions going around about how Obama and his Congressional henchpersons might use the post-election lame-duck session to push through various unpopular items of legislation, in particular an amnesty for millions.

Today’s Wall Street Journal noted the interest of powerful Democrats to jam through legislation they regard as vital to their agenda such [...]

Georgia Voters Can Choose a Strong Sovereignty Defender for Governor

In his House career starting in 1993, Nathan Deal worked against birthright citizenship and was a leader on issues like requiring English-only government services and excluding illegal aliens from Obamacare.

He supports Arizona’s tough enforcement approach. His career voting grade on immigration from NumbersUSA is A+.

In March of this year he quit the House to run [...]

Senator John McCain’s Continuing Voter-Amnesia Campaign

The Arizona Senator is vividly remembered by many citizens as Ted Kennedy’s devoted pal who supported a big amnesty bill — which was called the McCain-Kennedy immigration bill — and promised during his Presidential campaign to forgive millions of illegal aliens on his “first day” in the White House.

But now, Job #1 in his [...]

An Independence Day Complaint-Fest from Elite Cosmopolitans

Presumably the Washington Post’s diversity-loving editors imagined a pairing of liberal academic Robert Putnam and (nominal) Republican Jeb Bush would be a dandy show of the bipartisan propaganda for maintaining vast numbers of immigrants and illegal aliens.

Robert Putnam is a well known social scientist whose work indicated that diversity decreases trust and lessens social capital. [...]

Obama Apparatchiks Deny Total Amnesty Is in the Cards

The DHS has denied any intention of the executive branch to grant a unilateral “blanket” amnesty for millions of lawbreaking aliens, thereby circumventing Congress.

However, if you read the fine print closely, weaselly lawyer talk appears. “Blanket” the adjective means sweeping, all-inclusive but what is being considered behind closed doors may be a semi-comprehensive amnesty for [...]

Nation of Laws, or Nation of Amnesty for Invading Foreigners?

The open-borders President apparently believes it would be a swell idea to unilaterally grant an amnesty to millions of lawbreakers and thereby speed the Mexifornication of the country. His political heart must palpitate with delight when contemplating millions of grateful proto-Democrats in the pipeline a few years hence when naturalized.

Mark Krikorian blogged that those amnestied [...]

New Democrat Strategy: Sound Tough on Immigration

Do we detect desperation here? Consultants recommending that craven Dems “talk more like Republicans”?

And say, isn’t that the same language that was deemed racist for criticizing lawbreaking foreigners?

Hey, even John McCain has been taking a stricter line about law and borders recently, so maybe he is on to something.

On the other hand, it’s hardly news that [...]

Open-Borders Communists Harass Baseball Fans in the Capital of the Left Coast

On Saturday, I attended a San Francisco Giants home game with friends on a perfect evening for baseball by the Bay. The opposing team was the Diamondbacks, which attracted a couple hundred loud leftists to descend on the ballpark to march and shriek against border protection, in response to the tougher law recently passed [...]
