With the left spinning the new Arizona Illegal Immigration Law as a racist, profiling, anti-Constitution measure that will only target Hispanics, and their real agenda being Immigration Reform in the form of another Amnesty -cause after all, the Leftists proclaim, the immigrant criminals are very few and the vast majority of undocumented immigrants (see how they change terms to give a perception?) are just here to make their life better and to do jobs Americans won't. Well that's just Bull Crap across the board.
Here are a couple of pictures the main stream media won't show you are vast tracks of land, much of it privately owned, that are trashed because of illegal immigrants. Not only do they tear down fences and leave gates open, they leave trash, not just clothing, water bottles, food wrappers, just also large amounts of human waste to pollute their path. This is not just one area,...this is across the border in Arizona.

Cowboy Logic - Some Lessons are Simple
An old cowboy shuffled into the town of El Indio , Texas riding an old tired horse and leading a pack mule. The old man headed straight for the only saloon in town, to clear his parched throat. He walked up to the saloon and tied his old horse to the hitch rail. As he stood there, brushing some of the dust from his face and clothes, a young gunslinger stepped out of the saloon with a gun in one hand and a bottle of whiskey in the other.
The young gunslinger looked at the old man and laughed, saying, "Hey old man, have you ever danced?" The old man looked up at the gunslinger and said, "No, I never did dance... never really wanted to...may have been too just busy trying to get by."
A crowd had gathered as the gunslinger grinned and said, "Well, you old fool, you're gonna' dance now," and started shooting at the old man's feet. The old cowboy, not wanting to get a toe blown off nor riun his only pair of boots, started hopping around like a flea on a hot skillet. Everybody was laughing, fit to be tied.
When his last bullet had been fired, the young gunslinger, still laughing, holstered his gun and turned around to go back into the saloon. The old man turned to his pack mule, pulled out a double-barreled shotgun, and cocked both hammers. The loud clicks carried clearly through the desert air.
The crowd stopped laughing immediately. The young gunslinger heard the sounds too, and he turned around very slowly. The silence was almost deafening. The crowd watched as the young gunman stared at the old timer and the large gaping holes of those twin barrels.
The barrels of the shotgun never wavered in the old man's hands, as he quietly said, "Son, have you ever kissed a mule's ass?"
The gunslinger swallowed hard and said, "No sir..... but...I've always wanted to."
There are a few lessons for us all here:
Never be arrogant.
Don't waste ammunition.
Whiskey makes you think you're smarter than you are.
Always, always make sure you know who has the power.
Don't mess with old men, they didn't get old by being stupid .

Congressman Eric Cantor (R-VA) Introduces "You Cut"
House Minority Whip, Republican Congressman Eric Cantor introduces "YouCut" – a first-of-its-kind project - is designed to defeat the permissive culture of runaway spending in Congress. It allows you to vote, both online and on your cell phone, on spending cuts that you want to see the House enact. Vote on this page today for your priorities and together we can begin to change Washington's culture of spending into a culture of savings. Go to: http://republicanwhip.house.gov/YouCut/
to see the video from Congressman Cantor, who along with Mike Roger (R-MI) are giving me more hope than a warm camp fire that thee Conservatives have some leaders. Please go to this site each week and vote - lets force the Democrats to go on record for bigger spending and pork barrel politics.
Each week there will five candidates to vote to cut. This week's candidates are the five programs below. I voted to cut the Taxpayer Subsidized Union Activities even though money wise it is not the biggest waste of money - it's just I hate Unions, especially the brown shirts in blue, SEIU, which is a front for Obama and his radical agenda.
Presidential Election Fund
$260 million in savings
This federal program provides matching funds to political candidates during Presidential primaries, certain third-party candidates, and funds for political conventions. In the 2008 presidential election, the candidates raised over $1.3 billion from individuals and PACs, do they really need to supplement that with taxpayer money? This proposal has been estimated to save $260 million over five years. (Also proposed as part of the RSC Sunset Caucus.)
Taxpayer Subsidized Union Activities
$600 million in savings
Currently, some federal employees spend up to 100% of their workweek, paid by taxpayers, doing work for their union. Federal employees unions collect millions in revenue each year and spend significant amounts on political activities and lobbying, should they also be subsidized by the taxpayer for their official functions? In 2008 the Federal government spent $120 million paying employees for their time spent working on union activities (over five years this would total a minimum of $600 million.) (Also proposed as part of the RSC Sunset Caucus.)
HUD Program for Doctoral Dissertations
$1 million in savings
Recently, taxpayers have financed research on media strategies for housing policy and the use of eminent domain for urban redevelopment. Why should families who are struggling to pay for their children’s college also being asked to fund stipends from the government for those who want to write their dissertation on certain government-preferred policies? At approximately $200,000 in grants per year, terminating this program would save $1 million over five years.
New Non-Reformed Welfare Program
$2.5 billion in savings
The program was recently created to incentivize states to increase their welfare caseloads without requiring able-bodied adults to work, get job training, or otherwise prepare to move off of taxpayer assistance. Reforming the welfare program was one of the great achievements of the mid 1990s, saving taxpayers billions of dollars and ending the cycle of dependency on welfare. This new program, created in 2009 is a backdoor way to undo those reforms. The program currently costs approximately $2.5 billion a year. (Also proposed as part of the RSC Sunset Caucus.)
Eliminate Wealthier Communities from CDBG
$2.6 billion in savings
This cut will focus federal economic development assistance to needy communities. The Community Development Block Grant program currently funds a wide range of local economic development activities, while it is advertised as a way to help low-income communities, funds are also dispersed to communities with income well-above the national average. A recent study found that the community of Newton, Massachusetts with a per capita income over twice the national average was receiving $28 per person in CDBG funds. At the same time, other communities with income 25% below the national average were receiving $10 per person. Restricting this program to only communities with income at or below 110% of national average income would save $2.6 billion over five years.
