As Brian Kirwin has noted in Bearing Drift, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano has changed the rules under which local law enforcement officers may detain suspected illegal aliens.  How many times must we repeat the same scenario, where honest citizens are robbed, maimed, or killed because certain groups in our society don’t want to appear xenophobic?

According to Ron Moore’s blog over at the Washington Examiner is appears so.  Mr. Champ over at TwoSentz has chosen promulgate this foolishness as well.

What am I talking about?  It seems that there is a video making its way around the internet that makes certain scary claims about Muslim demographics.  If this video is to be believed, Europe will be controlled by Muslims in 50 years and we’re next.  According to Moore and Mr. Champ the video is a call for some type of “ethnic cleansing” of Muslims.

To be fair, I’m not in a position to argue the veracity of the video’s claims; and I really don’t feel like doing the research.  However, I can testify that spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ is not “ethnic cleansing”.  And guess what?  That is precisely what action the video calls for.

If my buddy TwoSentz is going to allow this kind of garbage to be placed on his website, he has a definite right to do so.  However, I would suggest that he take down all of his supporting pictures and info about our mutual friend Jim Ireton.  I don’t think Jim can get re-elected with the key Muslim and radical atheist (apparently Mr. Champ’s pitch) vote.  Please, however, keep up all of the Frank Kratovil stuff.

I Didn’t Know That John Kerry Was Running in Maryland

I had to “opportunity” to attend the Frank Kratovil dog and pony show in Salisbury yesterday.  As Yogi Bera said – it was deja vu all over again.  I thought that I was having a flashback from the John Kerry for President campaign.  We were treated to Kratovil’s having opposed the federal bailout before he supported it and Kratovil again stated his support for amnesty for illegal aliens.

For purposes of disclosure, yesterday’s show was a Young Dem event.  This was NOT mentioned in the press release I received regarding the event.  Had Kratovil’s campaign been honest about the event I wouldn’t have raised a stink about it yesterday.  Of course, I doubt any media would have showed up either.  Kratovil’s release made the event appear as if it was an SU event.

But I digress.  Sen. Barbara Mikulski got up and did her duty for party and the liberal cause.  She explained to the group of students that they all needed to get out and work for Barack Obama and Frank Kratovil.  As usual, she was pretty impressive.  I don’t agree with Sen. Mikulski on much, but I have always admired her constituent service and her willingness to take a stand.

Kratovil Shows Real Talent …

… For Talking Out of Both Sides of Mouth

Yesterday, we showed you the new TV commercial unveiled by Democrat congressional candidate Frank Kratovil. Today a few tidbits were brought to our attention that you may find interesting. Blue Dog Frank promises to:

  • Cut Taxes – Just a few months ago, Frank Kratovil called cutting taxes “irresponsible”. At a debate in January Kratovil stated that “we should not even be talking about tax cuts”. After the primary, this tax-cutting man of the people said, “It’s wrong to talk with a straight face about tax cuts. It’s irresponsible“. (Star-Democrat, 01/21/2008 and Star-Democrat, 03/21/2008)
  • Cut Wasteful Spending – In a radio interview Kratovil went on the record supporting earmarks. Earmarks are where a great deal of wasteful spending comes from. I wonder where Blue Dog Frank thinks we need a “Bridge to Nowhere”? (WYPR, 06/13/2008)
  • End Our Dependence of Foreign Oil – In the same radio interview, Kratovil states that he is opposed to drilling on the outer continental shelf. To steal a Democrat line, “It’s the SUPPLY, stupid!” Without increasing our domestic supply, Americans will continue to face upward spiraling energy costs until we can adopt alternatives. No Frank, drilling won’t solve the problem – it will only help as part of a complete solution. Because you, along with Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama, don’t want to allow drilling our economy will suffer. That means that WE will suffer. Thanks Frank.
  • Crack Down on Illegal Immigration – Last January Kratovil stated that he would have supported the “Amnesty” bill that was before Congress last year. Amnesty for 20 million illegals – that’s really “cracking down” on them Frank. (Star-Democrat, 01/13/2008)

We can all see that Frank Kratovil is a talented man. The people he aspires to emulate in Washington haven’t mastered double speak any better than Kratovil has.

While there is no doubt that the First District would suffer if enough folk were tricked into voting for Kratovil, there is also no doubt that Blue Dog Frank would fit right in with the likes of Nancy Pelosi. Frank is really showing off his PG County roots.

My friend and Red Maryland colleague Chet Dembeck provides us with some excellent insight into the “quiet invasion” of illegal immigration. Given all of the problems associated with this topic, we cannot overlook the probability of illegals impacting our state and federal elections.

Don’t be shocked to see signs that say:

VOTA POR EL CHRISTO OBAMA! this year and …

VOTA POR O’MALLEY in 2010

Do Illegals Vote?

The question is not CAN illegal aliens vote in U. S. elections, but DO they vote in our elections? The answer is an unqualified YES, and it could impact who our next President is and the makeup of the next Congress.

The Heritage Foundation outlines past instances of voting by illegals and the fight by leftists to convince Americans (real, honest, LEGAL Americans) that this isn’t a problem. While groups like ACORN are telling working class Americans that they are working for their best interests, this group is out there trying to register voters without any regard to citizenship. In Clark County, NV Larry Lomax, the Registrar of Voters states:

“he sees rampant fraud in the 2,000 to 3,000 registrations ACORN turns in every week.”

As Heritage points out, we already know of at least one Congressional seat that was turned over to the Democrats due (at least in part) to the voting of illegal aliens (1996 – Bob Dornan was ousted by Loretta Sanchez).

Here in Maryland we self-certify our citizenship, and therefore our right to vote. As someone who works to register voters I know that my local registrar does attempt to verify citizenship through social security numbers. However, that is certainly not foolproof.

Of course, this doesn’t matter if your local registrar is more interested in signing up Democrats than citizens.

Thursday, the Baltimore Sun ran an editorial decrying Anne Arundel County Executive John Leopold’s crack down on illegal immigrants. My, oh my! We can’t arrest these poor people. We’ll promote anti-immigrant feelings!

Hogwash! These people are in our country illegally. What part of that word doesn’t the Sun and their left wing fellow travelers not understand?

Entering this country without papers is a crime. The police are supposed to arrest criminals, right? Read more

In Frank Kratovil We Trust

True to form, Michael Swartz (of MonoBlogue fame) offered us some excellent analysis of Congressional candidate Frank Kratovil and his campaign. Without disagreeing with Michael, I believe that questioning Kratovil’s sincerity on certain issues needs to be explored a bit deeper.

Kratovil claims that he is not a liberal. I take him at his word. In all honesty, there is no evidence that Kratovil possesses any true political philosophy. Kratovil will pander to any group in order to attain the votes necessary for victory.

Frank Kratovil is the poster child of the post-Reagan Democrat candidate. The Rahm Emmanuel / Chris Van Hollen strategy is to run candidates, like Kratovil, who can campaign like a moderate / conservative yet revel in the total lack of political and moral courage that they may come to Washington and betray their constituents.

Kratovil traverses the length and breadth of Maryland’s First District telling his would be constituents that he will be tough on immigration, protect our environment and protect our 2nd amendment rights. Can he be believed? Read more
