Amnesty for Illegals? But I thought...

But I thought that if I were to trespass on someones property it is Illegal for me to do so and if I cause any problems while doing so I can go to Jail!

So Illegal immigrants can trespass into the United States, mooch our welfare system,health care system and what ever else they can they litter our border areas ( which is illegal) they basically cause serious problems in a lot of areas.

Of course not all of them are bad but, they all have done one thing illegal, TRESPASS into the United States.

For this alone they should be booted back across the border, no questions asked just go back to where you came from and fill out the paper work like everyone else.

When you come here illegally you are breaking the law.

Republicans accused the Obama administration of instituting "backdoor amnesty" after officials announced they would launch a case-by-case review of illegal immigrants slated for deportation in an effort to thin the list and focus resources on kicking out criminals.

The move would likely grant a reprieve to many would-be DREAM Act beneficiaries and thousands of others. The DREAM Act is a proposal in Congress to give illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. as children a chance at legal status if they complete two years of college or military service. Though the bill has not passed, Thursday's announcement could serve to carry out its provisions.


Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer, one of the president's toughest critics on border policy, said the move amounts to the administration implementing an immigration overhaul "via executive fiat."

"This plan amounts to backdoor amnesty for hundreds of thousands -- if not millions -- of illegal aliens," the Republican governor said in a written statement. "We need to remind President Obama that we elected a president that serves beneath the law and did not anoint a king that is above the law."

Texas Republican Rep. Michael McCaul said the plan circumvents Congress.

"It is just the latest attempt by this president to bypass the intended legislative process when he does not get his way," McCaul said.

GOP Reps Offer Bill to Ban Interior Dept. From Hindering Border Agents

It is so rare to hear any common sense out of a politician , that when you do it is a Shock !
But I suspect that all four of these Four (Republican)Congressmen will be labeled racist Hate mongers in no time !
If you secure the border how are all those illegal immigrants going to get here to leach of the rest of us ?


Foxnews
The unknown gunman who murdered an Arizona rancher three weeks ago entered and exited the U.S. illegally in an area where border agents are widely prohibited from using motorized vehicles, constructing roads and installing surveillance structures, federal agents have confirmed.

The development prompted four Republican congressmen to introduce legislation on Wednesday that will ban the Interior Department from using environmental regulations to hinder agents along the border, including at the San Bernardino National Wildlife Refuge, a 2,300-acre parcel near where rancher Robert Krentz was killed on March 27.

U.S. Reps. Doc Hastings of Washington, Peter King of New York, Rob Bishop of Utah and Lamar Smith of Texas say their bill, if passed, will address environmental degradation of federal lands and help close national security gaps along the border, which they say has become an uncontrolled highway.

"Effectively securing our borders against illegal entry is a matter of homeland security," King said in a statement prior to the scheduled 1 p.m. press conference at the U.S. Capitol Visitors Center in Washington. "Border Patrol agents spend every day on the front line, securing our homeland from terrorists. Denying or limiting the Border Patrol access to public lands and allowing the flow of illegals, including potential terrorists, doesn't protect anything."

The lawmakers say internal documents show that the Interior Department and the U.S. Forest Service have consistently and actively prevented Border Patrol agents from securing U.S. borders by requiring Department of Homeland Security officials to complete lengthy and expensive environmental analyses, and even blocking Border Patrol agents from entering some areas.

"As a result, Border Patrol agents are being forced to wade through bureaucratic red tape just so they can do the job Congress has mandated: gain operational control over the U.S. border," according to a fact sheet released by the House of Representatives' Natural Resources Committee Republicans.

Kendra Barkoff, a spokeswoman for the Interior Department told FoxNews.com that Secretary Ken Salazar visited the area last month to meet with land managers and federal, state, and local law enforcement, including U.S. Customs and Border Protection and Homeland Security officials.

She said Salazar places a high priority on working with DHS and other agencies to "meet the twin goals of protecting our national security and our natural resources."

Report on airline bomber to 'shock'

Remember back to the Bush 2 , era for a Minute .
Do you all remember the Democrats bitching their fool Brains out about how George Bush And Dick Cheney were trying to use "Fear" as a Tactic to Scare the crap out of all of us ? How things were greatly "Exaggerated" just to scare us "Dumb" unknowing sheeple ?
Hmmmmmm! Now that the Libtards are being held to task about "Real" Homeland security , it is a Whole different story !
Not so easy is it Jackass's .


(USA Today )WASHINGTON — White House national security adviser James Jones says Americans will feel "a certain shock" when they read an account being released Thursday of the missed clues that could have prevented the alleged Christmas Day bomber from ever boarding the plane.

President Obama "is legitimately and correctly alarmed that things that were available, bits of information that were available, patterns of behavior that were available, were not acted on," Jones said in an interview Wednesday with USA TODAY.

"That's two strikes," Obama's top White House aide on defense and foreign policy issues said, referring to the foiled bombing of the Detroit-bound airliner and the shooting rampage at Fort Hood, Texas, in November. In that case, too, officials failed to act when red flags were raised about an Army psychiatrist, Maj. Nidal Hasan. He has been charged with killing 13 people.
Jones said Obama "certainly doesn't want that third strike, and neither does anybody else."

The White House plans to release an unclassified report Thursday on what went wrong in the incident involving a 23-year-old Nigerian man who tried to blow up a Northwest Airlines flight.

In Detroit Wednesday, the suspect, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, was indicted on charges that include attempted murder and trying to use a weapon of mass destruction to kill nearly 300 people. Abdulmutallab, who faces life in prison if convicted, is to appear for the first time in federal court Friday.

what a time Not to be at home ! I always miss the good stuff .

He has told investigators that he was trained and equipped in Yemen by a group affiliated with al-Qaeda. His father had gone to the U.S. Embassy in Nigeria to warn American officials that his son seemed to be turning to extremist ideology.

Even so, Abdulmutallab's visa to the U.S. wasn't revoked and he wasn't placed on the "no-fly" list.


So , I say we return the favor to the Dumocrats , and start making some real noise to the Obamasiah and all his Minions ( The Obamamaggots ) about the security of this country , just like they did to George Bush .

Obama calls bomb attempt an intelligence "screw-up"

"We dodged a bullet but just barely," the White House quoted him as telling the security chiefs. "It was averted by brave individuals not because the system worked, and that is not acceptable."

Dodged a Bullet , That is a great understatement !
If The Obama administration really wants to clamp down on security loopholes , then I have a major suggestion For them ...
Try looking at Al Qaida and the Taliban along with Al Shabaab and Hamas As Terrorists !


WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The attempted Christmas Day bombing of a U.S. airliner was a potentially disastrous "screw up" by the intelligence community, President Barack Obama said on Tuesday as he vowed urgent action to plug holes in air security.

Sharpening his tone as he sought to limit political fallout over the intelligence breakdown, Obama said spy agencies had enough information to uncover the December 25 plot to blow up a Detroit-bound transatlantic flight from Amsterdam but failed to "connect those dots."

On Obama's first full day back from his Hawaii vacation, he faced the challenge of spotlighting national security -- suddenly pushed to the top of his agenda -- while not looking distracted from other pressing public concerns like reducing double-digit U.S. unemployment.

"We have to do better and we will do better. And we will do it quickly," Obama said after a two-hour meeting with his national security team to discuss what he has called "human and systemic failures" in the Christmas Day incident.

Obama used his sharpest language behind closed doors, telling more than two dozen security chiefs gathered in the Situation Room, "This was a screw-up that could have been disastrous," according to the White House.

"We dodged a bullet but just barely," the White House quoted him as telling the security chiefs. "It was averted by brave individuals not because the system worked, and that is not acceptable."

Napolitano Says Al Qaeda-Type Terrorists in U.S.

Another Statement from a Master of the obvious !
Homeland Security Secretary ,Janet Napolitano !

Foxnews
Law enforcement authorities are tracking terrorists with Al Qaeda leanings in the U.S., Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano told Bloomberg Television on Monday.

"It is fair to say there are individuals in the United States who ascribe to Al Qaeda-type beliefs," Napolitano told Bloomberg. "And so it makes information-sharing, it makes effective law enforcement and it makes the shared responsibility of law enforcement ever so important."

Napolitano told Bloomberg that since the Sept. 11 attacks, information between local, state and federal law enforcement agencies is "much improved."

But, she warned that the threat of an attack is "always with us," Bloomberg reported.

Napolitano said the combination of some Al Qaeda leaders being killed or caught, and their financing being traced or blocked, has prevented the terror group geographically.

She told Bloomberg its kept the main organization contained to northwestern Pakistan, but that they are using other affiliated groups to help plan attacks.


Nice paying attention there Janet !

DHS Clarifies Laptop Border Searches

The new rules leave open the possibility that travelers may face penalties for refusing to provide passwords or encryption keys.

Really ? Well I guess that we all should just go along with this !
The Government says this is how it is ! And they , of course , believe they have the Right to do it !
Government Intrusion is way out of control , just read kyros's post At Report on Arrakis about the Obamasiah wanting control over the internet !
Go Ahead ,your more than welcome to Check my Laptop ! If you can extract it from your ASS First!

Info Week Government
The Department of Homeland Security on Thursday released new directives covering border searches of electronic devices and media, but the government's rules leave open the question of whether individuals can be compelled to provide passwords and encryption keys.

DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano in a statement characterized the rules as an attempt to balance the investigatory requirements for fighting crime and terrorism with privacy and civil liberties.

In February, the U.S. Supreme Court refused to reconsider an appeals court ruling that laptops are like suitcases and can be searched at borders without reasonable suspicion.

Laptop searches remain an unusual event for travelers entering the country. More than 221 million travelers passed through U.S. ports of entry between Oct. 1, 2008, and Aug. 11, 2009, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). These entries resulted in about 1,000 laptop searches, only 46 of which were in-depth.

Nevertheless, the DHS policy of treating laptops and electronic devices as the equivalent of suitcases and backpacks in terms of border searches has alarmed business travel and privacy groups.

About two weeks ago, Nate Cardozo, open government legal fellow at the EFF, asked CPB through its online comment system, "If a CBP agent requests my password or encryption key and I refuse to provide it, will I be denied entry, will my laptop be seized, neither or both?"

Good Question!

The response, from a CPB employee identified as Frederick, was: "There is no concrete answer that can be given to your question since it is hypothetical. The outcomes you listed are possible, although a US citizen would not normally be denied entry. The actions that result from a denial to cooperate with a legal search are dependent on the applicable laws as well the discretion of the officers conducting the inspection."

Typical Bad answer full of Bullshit , from a government Agency !

New Counternarcotics Strategy to Derail Drug Cartels

This is the smartest plan I have ever heard ,  Absolutely Amazing ! Obama Is pure Genius !
And the entire plan ... Enforce all the laws we already Have !

El Paso Times
In an effort to stamp out the violent drug cartels that have ravaged
Mexico's border towns for the past several years, the Obama
administration introduced a new national strategy to reduce drug and
arms trafficking on June 5.

In a recent report, the U.S. Department of Justice called the Mexican drug cartels
the largest organized crime threat to the United States.

The new National Soutwest Border Counternarcotics Strategy aims to fill
that demand. It will help bridge the communication gap between federal
agencies and local police in stopping the flow of weapons and bulk
currency across the Mexican Border.

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said that the counternarcotics strategy will
“play a critical role in our efforts to stop cross-border drug
trafficking and violence.”

Heres the Plan...

class the objectives will be to ensure the prosecution of individuals
involved in any large drug trafficking, money laundering, bulk
currency, or weapons smuggling. It will also amp up the collection of
intelligence on the cartels and enhance technologies to detect
smugglers along the borders.

What a Novel Idea , These are all laws that should be enforced In the first place !

Canada chides U.S. for remarks on 9/11 plotters

It appears to be getting harder for Janet Napolitano , to keep her foot out of her mouth ! I say she fits right in with the Obama Administration , Which has an uncanny resemblance to the Clinton Administration , When it comes to running their Mouths !

OTTAWA (Reuters) - The Canadian government moved on Tuesday to correct U.S. homeland security chief Janet Napolitano after she wrongly said some of the perpetrators of the 9/11 attacks had crossed into the United States from Canada.

Public Safety Minister Peter Van Loan -- who met with Napolitano in March -- said his aides had contacted her office on Tuesday after she made the remarks to the Canadian Broadcasting Corp.

"She was well aware at that time (in March) and understood clearly that none of the 9/11 terrorists came across the Canadian border into the United States ... We confirmed with her office this morning that she continues to be well aware of that," Van Loan told reporters.

Napolitano raised concerns in Canada with remarks indicating she wants to clamp down on border security, which businesses fear could throttle vital trade flows.

She told the CBC on Monday that "to the extent that terrorists have come into our country or suspected or known terrorists have entered our country across a border, it's been across the Canadian border".

Asked if she was referring to the 9/11 plotters, she replied: "Not just those but others as well."

Van Loan said Napolitano had been speaking about Algerian-born Ahmed Ressam, who was arrested in December 1999 as he crossed into the United States from Canada with a car carrying explosives.

Ressam was sentenced to 22 years in jail in July 2005 for plotting to set off a bomb at Los Angeles airport on December 31, 1999.
