What happened to the island of Poth?

One day on the island of Poth, a stranger washed up ashore. He said he came from an island named Toll, but he left it for a better life.

“Everybody says that Poth is the land of opportunity,” the stranger said, “I want some for myself and there are plenty of others like me that want to come here.”

The Pothians in government said, “Sure come one come all.”

So they came.

First one, then two, then six and more.

But, the wisest and oldest citizen of Poth said this warning, “Let then come, sure. But, these new people have to learn the ways of being Pothian. They have to learn our language, our beliefs, and our customs. These are the very things that has made Poth what she is. This is what has made us exceptional. If we lose that, then Poth dies from within. Our destruction comes without war!”

But younger Pothians in government called the old man foolish and his thinking out-dated, and even bigoted.

So the Tollites continued to come to Poth.

They kept their language and their customs and told Pothians that their ways were offensive to them.

“We thought Pothians were not bigoted. That’s has always been your reputation. Has this been a lie all along?”

And the Pothians not wanting to be labeled bigots gave in.

In time Poth changed.

It became a place of strife and entitlement because other groups came with their own language, customs, demands and no one wanted to live as Pothian.

And as time went by no one remembered the old ways of Poth that made her the envy of the world.

Then a man was fishing in the ocean and saw a stranger bobbing in the water. He pulled him into his boat.

“Thank you so much!” the stranger said, “I thought I would drown for sure.”

“Where are you from?” asked the fisherman.

“I an from Poth and I seek a better life. Take me to your island.”

Then man picked up the stranger from Poth and threw him back into the water.

Feds Can’t Secure Border But They Can Deport a White Couple in Maine

I find it very telling that the Feds can’t seem to stop Mexicans from illegally crossing the border in droves, but they want to deport Dean and Laura Franks, a British couple who are here legally and are running a successful business.

Is this justice or selective persecution of Whites?

From WGME:

A York county couple, originally from England, is about to be kicked out of the country.

For a decade, Dean and Laura Franks built up "Laura's Kitchen," a small, but popular local restaurant in Wells, now shuttered and for sale.
That's because the "E-2" visa they'd legally had for years -- twice renewed with no problem-- was suddenly denied last year.

The reason -- an immigration case worker in California reviewing their numbers declared their business "marginal," not profitable enough, even though they made enough to run the business, live virtually debt free and employ local people part-time.

They are now in the country on a temporary tourist visa, trying to wrap up their affairs and sell their properties -- while desperately hoping for an unexpected reprieve.

Bear in mind that Obama’s grandfather was tortured by the British. He has no love for that country.

Jan Brewer Ad Blasts Obama Over Arizona Border Signs Amid Immigration Law Uproar (VIDEO)

Jan Brewer, the tough, no nonsense, plain speaking Republic
an Gov of Arizona kicks President Obama’s ass in a new TV Ad.

She doesn’t need expert advice on whose ass to kick!



You nailed it Governor!

President Barack Obama is playing Chicago politics with the border to squeeze through Congress a new Democrat/Amnesty bill that would create new Democrat voters out of illegal aliens.

When you’re approval ratings are in the low 40s, you have to find a new voting block somewhere.

Nationally, 60% Favor Letting Local Police Stop and Verify Immigration Status

Opps!

A majority of the American people disagree with President Obama’s and the Democrat Party’s stance on Arizona’s new Illegal Immigration law!

Once again the president and the Democrats are out of step with the wishes of the American people. However, don’t expect Bam and the Dems to hear what the people have to say. After all they need a new Democrat Creation Reform Bill to better their chances in November.

From Rasmusen Reports:

Arizona Governor Jan Brewer last week signed a new law into effect that authorizes local police to stop and verify the immigration status of anyone they suspect of being an illegal immigrant. A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey finds that 60% of voters nationwide favor such a law, while 31% are opposed.
Seventy-seven percent (77%) of Republicans support the law along with 62% of voters not affiliated with either major party. Democratic voters are evenly divided on the measure.

Voter support for empowering local police comes at a time when most voters (56%) believe it is unlikely Congress will take action to gain control of the border. Only 31% say Congress is even somewhat likely to take such an action. That figure includes just 10% who believe Congress is Very Likely to act.

President Obama has denounced the Arizona law, and he and other critics of the measure see it as an incentive to push new national immigration reform legislation to supersede it.

Not surprisingly, support for the law authorizing local police to arrest illegal immigrants is a bit higher in Arizona than it is nationwide. As one of the states most impacted by illegal immigration, 70% of voters statewide favor the new law.
(Want a free daily e-mail update? If it's in the news, it's in our polls). Rasmussen Reports updates are also available on Twitter or Facebook.

Brewer signed the new law in the midst of a tough Republican Primary campaign. She antagonized many Republicans early on by supporting a statewide tax increase. More recently, she has pleased many voters by finding a way for the state to sue the federal government over the new health care reform law. Eighty-three percent (83%) of Arizona voters say a candidate's position on immigration is an important factor in how they will vote, including 51% who say it’s very important.

The measure is also having an impact on this year’s Arizona Senate race. Senator John McCain, who narrowly leads conservative challenger J.D. Hayworth in Arizona’s hotly contested GOP Senate Primary race, has come out strongly in support of the new law.

The new survey results are consistent with findings conducted over many years. Three-out-of-four voters believe that the federal government is not doing enough to secure the nation’s borders. In fact, 56% believe that the policies of the federal government encourage illegal immigration. Among voters who are angry about immigration, 83% are angry at the federal government. Only 12% direct their anger at the immigrants.

The biggest point of disconnect between voters and the conventional wisdom in Washington, D.C. has to do with priorities. Almost always in Washington, the debate begins with a focus on how to address the status of illegal immigrants. To voters, that is a secondary concern. Controlling the borders is the top concern. That hasn’t changes since the 2006 immigration legislation collapsed when the U.S. Senate surrendered to public opinion. During that debate, a New York Times/CBS poll found that 69% believed illegal immigrants should be prosecuted and deported.

Other surveys have found that 73% of voters want cops to check the immigration status of all offenders during traffic stops. Sixty-seven percent (67%) also say that if law enforcement officers know of places where immigrants gather to find work, they should sometimes conduct surprise raids to identify and deport those who are here illegally.

Sixty-eight percent (68%) of voters nationwide say that those who knowingly hire illegal immigrants should be punished.

By a 48% to 36% margin, voters say the same about landlords who rent to illegal immigrants. Additionally, 77% of voters nationwide oppose drivers’ licenses for undocumented immigrants. That topic tripped up Hillary Clinton in a debate during the race for the Democratic presidential nomination.

Joe Arpaio, the sheriff of Maricopa County in Arizona, created a national controversy by aggressively enforcing national immigration laws. While his efforts prompted a U.S. Justice Department civil rights investigation, the sheriff remains popular in his home state. Most Arizona voters not only support his policies, but 58% say he has been good for the state’s image. On a personal basis, Arpaio is viewed favorably by 68% of Arizona voters.
