Fonda: Obama is a ‘F–king Traitor’.
Given Americans’ pain at the pump and our country’s stagnant economy, you’d expect the Obama administration to do everything in its power to secure vital resources and spur economic growth. Unfortunately, this is not the case.
Our side (i.e. the American citizenry) had a HUGE victory in the U. S. Supreme Court on Thursday, a ruling that Arizona was perfectly within its rights to cancel business licenses of outfits that hire illegal aliens. You may well know about this victory at least through NumbersUSA. Roy Beck’s blog entry about the Supremes’ ruling is here.
So now is the time to really push for the SAVE Act (H.R. 2000), just reintroduced in the House of Representatives by Congressman Heath Shuler (D-NC). Shuler introduced earlier versions of the SAVE Act in the last two Congresses. Both times, he attracted a lot of interest, including many co-sponsors, but no substantial action was taken. This is how major legislation — which the SAVE Act would be — typically develops. By the way, “SAVE” is the acronym for “Secure America through Verification and Enforcement.”
(I hope you’re, by now, also familiar with another use of “SAVE” that’s pertinent for us: The “Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements” online database that’s used in checking aliens for legal presence. Because the legislature passed and the governor signed Rep. Howard’s HB 178, non-citizen applicants for Montana driver’s licenses and state IDs will now be checked using the SAVE database.)
Regarding H.R 2000, it already has both Dem and Repub co-sponsors, totaling about 30. But Congressman Rehberg isn’t yet among them. So please step up and send Rehberg the fax that NumbersUSA is making available at your Action Buffet. Roy Beck writes about the importance of doing this, along with the SAVE bill’s legislative prospects, here.
Several highlights of the new version of the SAVE bill:
– The Social Security administration will have to start doing the obvious things when they detect identity theft.
The complete — and LONG! — list of goodies in H.R. 2000 is available here.

The superlatives were flying at today’s press conference announcing that pharmaceutical giant Pfizer has agreed to pay $2.3 billion to resolve charges of illegal and fraudulent promotion of its products:
The largest health care fraud settlement in Department of Justice history;
Human trafficking and forced prostitution – a form of slavery that has malingered on into the 21st Century, is a horrific fact of life in Mexico, in particular the capital Mexico City. Even more alarming is that fact that of the estimated 10,000 women bound in this evil servitude is that fact that there were only 40 investigations of the crime and three convictions in the city last year.
Congressman Barney Frank, former Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, helped his then-butt buddy Herb Moses land a nice, lucrative “government job” working at Fannie Mae back in the 1990′s. Even though it happened several years ago, this “news” raises some very legitimate questions about a “conflict of interest,” because in his position as an elected member of Congress, Mr. Frank had direct governmental oversight of Fannie Mae.
When Paul Ryan’s budget bill failed to pass in the Senate and there were reports that five Republican Senators joined the Democrats and voted against it, it only took a few seconds to guess three of the five.
All I had to do was think of the Progressive (Socialist) Democrats who are posing as Republicans.
Why is it that nobody ever mentions in stories like this the fact that the US dollar is supposed to be the tool with which American’s, and all holders, PRESERVE their wealth? Most American’s still don’t realize that if they put $1000 in the bank, that the purchasing power is less when they withdraw it because of the Fed using the dollar as an instrument of control rather than a store of value to be preserved…
If this were brought up, the very basis of these debates would need to change.Go get yourself gold and silver bullion cause the dollar is likely to collapse by 2012 as many forecasters predict
Give Up Your Freedoms To Terrorists! But Just Keep Shopping!
Many Americans think they understand the dangers of the Patriot Act, which Congress has vowed to extend 4 more years in a vote later this week. Trust me when I say, Americans are not nearly frightened enough.
Ever wonder why the truth about 9/11 never got exposed? Why Americans don’t have a clue about leadership fraud surrounding the War on Terror? Why Americans don’t know if the 9/11 investigation was really successful? Why the Iraqi Peace Option draws a blank? Somebody has known the whereabouts of Osama bin Laden— or his grave—for the past 10 years. But nobody’s talking to the people.
