Karzai Govenment Alleges U.S. Prisoner Abuse

An Afghan Government commission is alleging that U.S. Guards at the Bagram prison outside of Kabul, are mistreating detainees – the very same Al Qaeda and Taliban terrorists  who are bombing and killing Afghan civilians as well as U.S. and NATO coalition soldiers.  Karzai has demanded an immediate turnover of the facility to the Afghan government . The problem for the U.S. is that the Karzai government has a history of releasing terrorist suspects in their custody who go right back to creating more mayhem and bloodshed in the country.  So the question is why are we even there?  WM

KABUL, Afghanistan—An Afghan investigative commission accused the American military Saturday of abuse at its main prison in the country, repeating President Hamid Karzai’s demand that the U.S. turn over all detainees to Afghan custody and saying anyone held without evidence should be freed.

Fusion Centers – Where Reality Meets Orwell’s 1984

While reading through some articles on Homeland Security intelligence gathering protocols I came across a Fox News article titled , ’Fusion Centers’ Expand Criteria to Identify Militia Members. [1]

According to the article’s author, “If  you are an anti-abortion, (activist), or if you display paraphernalia supporting a third party candidate or support a certain Republican member of Congress, if you possess subversive literature, you might very well be a member of a domestic paramilitary group.”  Continue reading “Fusion Centers – Where Reality Meets Orwell’s 1984” »

Global Warming – Same Ole’ Story

The following was sent me by a distant relative in Texas. Amazingly it reminds me of the harsh winter of 1971 – 1972 where we had snow in the local mountains just after Halloween. It was continually cold and wet for the next four months.

I am of course talking about Southern California. Time Magazine, environmentalists and their fellow travelers hysterically claimed a coming ice age – civilization as we knew would be wiped out.  [1]

It happened again in the winter of  1974-75.  In between and in following years we had the same varience of natural climate cycles.  With that said we might look at the current crop of doomsayers as rediculous and uninformed and those who are pushing the so called ‘green agenda’ as nothing more than greedy bastards cashing in on a false hysteria.  Just my opinion….WM

I exist in a state of almost perpetual hysteria….Sting

The Washington Post: November 2, 1922: 

We’re sweating our asses off up here- someone please help!

 The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and, in some places, the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday….

Reports from fishermen, seal hunters, and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Continue reading “Global Warming – Same Ole’ Story” »

Father of Murdered Border Agent Brian Terry – Holder a Liar

Sadly, lying by government officials, of both parties – all administrations, would seem the mainstay to not only attain but too hold on to political power. Eric Holder, like his boss, is a practiced liar. The Terry family has every right to publicly state what all the pundits, pols and partisan media are afraid to say.

The old saying if it smells….then somebody has definitely stepped in something foul. Obama should call for the resignation, if not outright firing of this poor excuse of an Attorney General.

Brian Terry was Marine who, unlike that socialist cretin currently soiling the bed sheets at the White House, served with honor and distinction – an American hero who put his life on the line, for all of us….Semper Fi brother – RIP….WM

I believe we need heroes, I believe we need certain people who we can measure our own shortcomings by….Richard Attenborough

Family of Murdered Border Agent Breaks Silence, Lashes Out at Holder

 - Fox News, November 11, 2011

“I think they are liars and I would tell them that,” said Kent Terry

Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry died almost one year ago. Despite almost daily headlines about the ongoing scandal in the Obama administration, his devastated parents have said nothing publicly about the U.S. program that helped provide the weapons that killed their son. …Until now.  Continue reading “Father of Murdered Border Agent Brian Terry – Holder a Liar” »

Obama Re-election Depending On Illegal Alien Votes?

While I still am still on hiatis researching and writing my upcoming novel, there are certain issues that pique my interest, especially when it concerns illegal aliens fraudently voting in U.S. elections. This of course is one of those issues that no one really wants to admit exists even though the 2009 – 2010  investigations into Acorn’s “community organizing” practices, funded with taxpayer monies, revealed that they and others were actively engaged in registering illegal aliens as well as others not qualified to vote. Predictably those involved, ie the Rathke brothers, backed by George Soros were never prosecuted – Soros being too powerful and one of the Obama administrations biggest financial supporters and the Rathke brothers fleeing the country to avoid prosecution. Nevertheless our electoral system for the most part remains firmly secure in most instances. However, the question remains:  Why is this undermining of our electoral system  allowed to continue? A simple question that remains unanswered.  Just my opinion….WM

Non-Citizen Voting in Federal Elections

Federation For Immigration Reform Report – Updated, November 3, 2011

 In 1996, Congress enacted the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act, making it a federal crime for non-citizens to vote in any federal election (or state election, unless authorized by state law). As a penalty, ineligible non-citizens who knowingly vote may be deported. Additionally, a non-citizen who falsely claims to be a United States citizen is in violation of this law.

However, there are many documented reports of non-citizen voting,1 2 and there is no evidence of prosecution of the aliens for their action.  With nearly 19 million foreign-born residents who are not U.S. citizens in the country in the 2000 Census and an estimated 9-11 million illegal residents (many of them not also counted in the Census), the potential is enormous for non-citizens to affect the outcome of elections.

Charges were made in at least three federal elections in California3 4 and twice in Florida5 that voting by ineligible aliens may have determined the outcome of the election.  For instance:

  • In Florida, election observers say a “sizable number” of Florida votes in the 2000 election may have been cast by ineligible felons, illegal immigrants, and non-citizens. 6
  • In California, former Republican Rep. Robert K. Dornan was defeated by Democrat Loretta Sanchez by 984 votes in the 1996 election. State officials found that at least 300 votes were cast illegally by non-citizens.7

Investigation of the allegations established that aliens had illegally voted in those elections, but not in sufficient numbers to have changed the result.  Authorities appear not to have prosecuted any of the aliens who voted illegally.
