Federal Officials Propose Unmanned – Self Serve Mexican Border Crossing Kiosk

File this one under, are you serious!

US federal officials plan on creating a self serve border crossing between the US and Mexico. That is correct, an unmanned border crossing with Mexico. It is supposed to improve security, because agents will be monitoring things from 100 miles away. Who’s brilliant idea was this? The United States already has a problem with Mexicans illegally crossing into America so now we are going to create an EZ Pass for them to do so. Oh but wait, we will monitor it from 100′s of miles away so when we see something go wrong, what will be the response time?

This hardly seems a time the U.S. would be willing to allow people to cross the border legally from Mexico without a customs officer in sight. But in this rugged, remote West Texas terrain where wading across the shallow Rio Grande undetected is all too easy, federal authorities are touting a proposal to open an unmanned port of entry as a security upgrade.

By the spring, kiosks could open up in Big Bend National Park allowing people from the tiny Mexican town of Boquillas del Carmen to scan their identity documents and talk to a customs officer in another location, at least 100 miles away.

The crossing, which would be the nation’s first such port of entry with Mexico, has sparked opposition from some who see it as counterintuitive in these days of heightened border security.

Good grief, why don’t we just give them free “Fast & Furious” guns too while they cross through the self-serve kiosk? As the Lonely Conservative opines, what could possibly go wrong? What other moronic ideas could possibly come from the Obama administration?

Illegal Worker Immigrants Cost the US $4.2 Billion in Tax Credits

So illegals don’t cost the United States anything, eh?

Let alone the costs and burdens to schools and hospitals, add another $4.2 billion in tax credits that were amazingly collected by illegals through a tax loophole. President Barack Obama loves to rail about the corporate jet tax loophole, how come Obama isn’t doing anything to close money going to illegal workers? Think this is a new phenomenon? Five years ago, illegals collected $1 billion from the “additional child tax credit.

Undocumented workers collected $4.2 billion in a certain tax credit last year, up from less than $1 billion five years ago, according to a new audit.

The report from the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration looked only at a tax benefit known as the Additional Child Tax Credit, a refundable credit meant for working families. The audit found that as a result of vague U.S. law — as well as an expansion of the tax credit in stimulus legislation and other measures — the number of illegal workers collecting the money has skyrocketed.

President Barack Obama’s Uncle Held by (ICE) US Immigration Officials

Some stories you just can’t make up and just write themselves … Obama’s illegal immigrant uncle goes to the top of that list.

It was reported over the weekend that 67  year old Onyango Obama was charged with operating under the influence of alcohol, negligent operation of a motor vehicle and failure to yield the right of way. Forget the fact that he was in the US illegally. Kind of makes Billy Carter look like the model relative of a politician.

President Barack Obama’s uncle was stopped on suspicion of drunken driving, told police he planned to arrange bail through the White House and was being held without bail on an immigration detainer, authorities said Monday.

Onyango Obama was arrested last week in Framingham, about 20 miles (32 kilometers) west of Boston, after police said he made a rolling stop through a stop sign and nearly caused a cruiser to strike his sport utility vehicle.

Police said that after being booked at the police station, Obama was asked whether he wanted to make a telephone call to arrange for bail.

“I think I will call the White House,” he stated, according to a police report filed in Framingham District Court.

Onyango Obama is currently being held by ICE and is denying that DUI charges even though his blood-alcohol was twice the legal limit.  What, an Obama spin the fact … NEVER! Just curious, what is the over/under on Obama’s uncle being deported from the US for being in the country illegally?

According to a a federal law enforcement source who spoke on condition of not being identified, Onyango Obama was not legally in the United States and has been previously ordered removed from the country. His case is now going through the immigration process, the source said.

Isn’t this special? As reported at the Gateway Pundit via Howie Carr, Obama’s illegal alien uncle has a valid driver’s license and SS number. What a metaphor for the Obama Administration and their policies on illegals. Let’s repeat that little tid bit, the liberal MSM might have missed it … the uncle of the President of the United States had a social security card. Who finds this beyond amazing that Barack Obama, a sitting US President had not one illegal relative, but two. The latter committing a federal offense in having federal a federal doc illegally. That would be grounds to deport Uncle Omar even under Obama’s policies.

The president’s 67-year-old uncle, Obama Onyango, has had a valid Massachusetts driver’s license and Social Security number since at least 1992, said Registry of Motor Vehicles spokesman Michael Verseckes.

So how did Uncle Omar get a SS numbers, the National Review attempts to explain. When Massachusetts Gov. Devall Patrick was asked for a statement he replied, “You know my stance: Illegal is illegal. We need comprehensive immigration reform.” What?

EXIT QUESTION: How many illegal alien fugitive could one US President possibly have?

Onyango Obama, President Obama’s Illegal Immigrant Uncle Arrested … Almost hits Police Car

More Hope & Change courtesy of the Obama family … Does anything surprise us any more from these folks?

President Obama’s illegal immigrant uncle from Kenya, Onyango Obama was arrested last week for DUI and nearly crashing into a police car with his SUV. Where do we even start? Illegal immigrant, DUI and driving an SUV? I am guess that Barack Obama would be most concerned that his uncle was not being “green” and dare drive an SUV. Way to go liberal MSM, where is any of your coverage on this story, see Google search.

A number of media outlets have already reported that an illegal immigrant from Kenya by the name of Onyango Obama, 67, was arrested last week on Wednesday after he nearly rammed his SUV into a police car in Framingham, Massachusetts.

He was later charged with DUI among other violations. I spoke to Framingham Public Information Officer Lieutenant Delaney who told me that when Onyango Obama was asked at booking if he wanted to make a telephone call to arrange for bail, the Kenyan immigrant replied: “I think I will call the White House.”

It should be noted that the Times of London, highlighted an Onyango Obama during the 2008 presidential campaign, when the British daily found President Barack Obama’s “Aunt Zeituni” living in Boston illegally.:

What are the adds the following occurs and he is deported. Don’t hold your breath. The Gateway Pundit reminds us of Obama’s last known illegal alien relative , African aunt Zeituni Onyango – was granted asylum in 2010. PJ Media asks a valid question, “did President Obama enacted his amnesty by fiat in order to keep his welfare queen aunt and drunk driving uncle from having to face deportation?” Seems perfectly fine to ask, wonder if the White House Press core will do so, waiting, waiting, still waiting.

Illegal Immigrant Nicolas D. Guaman Charged in Hit & Run Death of 23 Year Old Massachusetts Man

How brilliant does Obama’s new laws of easing the deportation of illegals look now?

It would appear that Nicolas D. Guaman of Milford, Massachusetts was doing the job that Americans were not willing to do. The 34 year old illegal immigrant was charged with the hit & run death of  23 year old Matthew J. Denice. So how is it again that Obama only wants to deport illegals from the US who have committed crimes? Let’s show how ridiculous Obama’s new edict, a backdoor amnesty attempt without a vote from Congress, looks. Last week Guaman was a “no” on the deport list, today he is on the deport list  and an American is dead.

An illegal immigrant who allegedly killed a 23-year-old Massachusetts man in a hit-and-run accident Saturday is being held on $100,000 cash bail, the Milford Daily News reports.

Nicolas D. Guaman, 34, of Milford, Mass., was arrested Saturday after his vehicle struck Matthew J. Denice, who was on a motorcycle, according to police. Guaman’s pickup truck had allegedly dragged Denice’s body a quarter-mile, the newspaper reports.

Judge Robert Calagione entered a not guilty plea on behalf of Guaman in Milford District Court on Tuesday.

Gallup Poll: Barack Obama Down 36% Among Hispanics and Overall Job Approval at 40%

YET ANOTHER DEMOGRAPHIC THAT OBAMA IS POLLING POORLY WITH …

There is a reason why President Barack Obama has a 40% jobs approval rating, while 53% disapprove of the way “The One” has handled the his job as president. According to CNS News, Obama has dropped 36% among Hispanics Americans since 2009 and is presently at a 49% approval rating.

Only 49 percent of Hispanic Americans said last week they approve of the job Barack Obama is doing as president, according to the Gallup poll. That is down 36 points from the high of 85 percent that Obama’s approval hit among Hispanics in the Gallup poll in the spring of 2009, his first year as president.

This can completely explain Obama’s “quid pro quo” attempt to buy back Hispanic votes with his “end run” around Congress and changes the manner in which the US exports illegals. Imagine that, Obama himself deciding on what laws of the United States he will follow and which ones he will not.  Sadly, this is nothing more than “back door” amnesty and a president making law himself, rather than that being passed by Congress.

Bowing to pressure from immigrant rights activists, the Obama administration said Thursday that it will halt deportation proceedings on a case-by-case basis against illegal immigrants who meet certain criteria, such as attending school, having family in the military or having primary responsible for other family members’ care.

The move marks a major step for President Obama, who for months has said he does not have broad categorical authority to halt deportations and said he must follow the laws as Congress has written them.

Thanks Barack Obama: Mexico’s Unemployment Rate 4.9% … United States 9.2%

THANKS BARACK OBAMA: MEXICO UNEMPLOYMENT RATE 4.9% – US UNEMPLOYMENT RATE 9.2% …

Well we have finally figured out Barack Obama’s master plan of Obamanomics and illegal immigration … make the United States employment and jobs situation so bad that undocumented illegal immigrants go back to Mexico. WINNING! How bad is the economy under Barack Obama, even illegals want out of the US.

What a sad state of affairs in the United States under the Obama Administration with his help from his minions Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi. The unemployment situation in the US is bleak at 9.2%  and the economic growth is anemic at 1.3%.  But wait, that is Obama’s master plan. Make the economic situation in the US so terrible that the illegal Mexican immigrants will stay in Mexico where there are actually jobs. According to a recent Sacramento Bee article, there are less illegals in California as they are finding the “American Dream” south of the border.

There are fewer undocumented immigrants in California – and the Sacramento region – because many are now finding the American dream south of the border.

“It’s now easier to buy homes on credit, find a job and access higher education in Mexico,” Sacramento’s Mexican consul general, Carlos González Gutiérrez, said Wednesday. “We have become a middle-class country.”

Mexico’s unemployment rate is now 4.9 percent, compared with 9.4 percent joblessness in the United States.

With the job destroying policies of Obama, it would appear that he will not be happy until Americans are crossing the border illegally into Mexico to find employment.  Maybe Obama should run for President in Mexico in 2012 … because America cannot afford another 4 more years of his “Hope & Change”.

Terrorist Group Hezbollah Opens Up Shop Across the Mexican Border

Not so Southern comfort …

So how secure is the Mexican-US border? Is drug and human trafficking really the United States biggest fear on our Southern border? Hardly. It appears that the terrorist group Hezbollah is opening up shop across the Mexican border. Could you imagine that terror groups are now partnering with Mexican drug cartels and we are told by our government that all is well.

A terrorist organization whose home base is in the Middle East has established another home base across the border in Mexico.

“They are recognized by many experts as the ‘A’ team of Muslim terrorist organizations,” a former U.S. intelligence agent told 10News.

The former agent, referring to Shi’a Muslim terrorist group Hezbollah, added, “They certainly have had successes in big-ticket bombings.”

Some of the group’s bombings include the U.S. embassy in Beirut and Israeli embassy in Argentina.

However, the group is now active much closer to San Diego.

But nothing to fear as Atlas Shrugs states, imagine an Iranian proxy jihad group infiltrating the US, a Muslim group with huge “success in big ticket bombings” — but not to worry, Obama tells us our borders are safe. When will the US ever take the issue of the Mexican border serious? Will it take another terror act to occur for our government to get serious?

Governor Jan Brewer Signs Bill Authorizing Mexican-US Border Fence Built in Arizona

Arizona Governor Jan Brewer has signed a bill into law that would authorize a security fence to be built in Arizona along the US-Mexican border. What are the odds that Obama will have AG Eric Holder sue Arizona for having the audacity to securing the border.

A bill signed into law by Gov. Jan Brewer authorizes erection of a security fence along Arizona’s portion of the U.S.-Mexico border, either in a compact with other states or by itself.

Spokesman Matt Benson declined immediate comment Friday on why Brewer signed the bill Thursday and on whether she plans to invoke the authority.

The bill does not specify a cost or make an appropriation but says the state would use donations, inmate labor and private contractors.
