ICE: Gang of 8 Agreement Legalization 1st, Enforcement Maybe Never

ICE Officer, Chris Crane: “I’d like to begin by quoting Senator Chuck Schumer from this past weekend on NBC’s ‘Meet the Press.’ The quote is his basic description of how he believes the Gang of 8’s proposed legislation on comprehensive immigration reform will work. Senator Schumer stated, ‘We’ve come to a basic agreement, which is that first, people will be legalized…Then, we will make sure the border is secure.’ … [Read more...]

Tancredo Asks Obama to Call for Cop Killer’s Surrender in State of the Union

Former Lawmaker Cites Madman’s Open Admiration for President as Opportunity to End Killing DENVER – Former U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo today called on President Obama to use tonight’s State of the Union address to speak directly to madman Christian Dorner, a psychopath who has already murdered three people in California, and has openly proclaimed his intent to kill even more. “Dorner has made no secret of his love … [Read more...]

Impeach Obama for Treason – Tancredo on Benghazi, Libya

  BENGHAZI AMOUNTS TO GIVING ‘AID AND COMFORT’ TO THE ENEMY   The four American deaths in Benghazi are a direct result of decisions and actions by President Obama that undermine the national-security interests of the United States. Those deaths may well be only a foretaste of the catastrophe awaiting the United States if Barack Hussein Obama remains in office four more years. As we all know, Obama … [Read more...]

Is the GOP Doomed if Romney Loses?

Tom Tancredo says, if Obama wins, it's the fate of the Constitution that matters.   For the record, do not count me among the pessimists who think Barack Obama is certain to defeat Mitt Romney on Nov. 6. Nevertheless, it is impossible to avoid somber thoughts about what may – and probably should – happen to the Republican Party if Romney loses. A Romney loss would of course trigger an avalanche of … [Read more...]

Obama’s Foreign Policy Now in Flames

Tancredo to Prez: The world isn't a Fairyland of Cosmic Brotherhood  A U.S. ambassador is dead, and over 30 U.S. embassies across the globe are under violent attack as a direct result of President Obama’s attempted appeasement of radical Islam. How many more Americans will die before that policy can be reversed and Obama removed from office? Keep in mind that by international treaty and tradition, … [Read more...]

Tancredo: Rule of Law is a GOP Priority, so about Illegal Immigration…

Are the Republicans assembled in Tampa next week going to adopt a platform that marks a significant change in the party’s position on immigration law enforcement, amnesty or border security? No. But that’s not controversial, so the media are trying to manufacture a controversy where none exists. I see no problem in supporting the draft platform on immigration as adopted in Tampa on Tuesday, including its call for … [Read more...]

Cowardly Republicans; Impeach Obama Now!

“John Roberts says impeach Obama now” Oh, you missed that headline? Let me refresh your memory by summarizing the principle behind the Roberts decision on Obamacare. If we apply the Roberts principle to the impeachment question, then impeachment is not only a good idea, it is a constitutional imperative. The argument heard most often against impeaching and removing President Obama is the following. Well, yes, … [Read more...]

John Roberts’ Move to the Dark Side

Justice Replaced Constitutionalism with Politics  In the days following the shocking John Roberts ruling on Obamacare, we have seen many attempts to explain and justify the chief justice’s decision. That debate is interesting and worthwhile. But there is another lesson that may be even more important than the political struggle to repeal Obama’s Affordable Care Act. Respected conservative pundits … [Read more...]

‘FORWARD!’ (Tancredo’s call)

The official Obama campaign logo!   Source: Leading Light Communist Organization   Obama has adopted “Forward” as a slogan for the campaign.  It is not very original. It has been used by other leftist movements throughout the world. I can see why they chose it.  After all, who can be against moving forward? Whatever the observer deems to be a desirable future will be what he or she … [Read more...]

How Obama Plans to Win

Gulag Bulletin - Do you believe the sovereignty of the United States of America is at stake - and with it our very Popular Sovereignty? Then, see The Sovereignty Campaign - @SovCam. His approval rating is in the toilet. His re-election numbers are abysmal for an incumbent president at this point in his term. He has stated that he is giving up on white, working-class Americans. The economy, regardless of how he … [Read more...]

Obama’s Shameful War on Youth

President Obama’s taxpayer-financed re-election campaign roared into Colorado last week after tax-payer financed stops in North Carolina, Iowa and elsewhere. But give the man credit: Obama has achieved a near impossible contradiction by embodying and popularizing a new oxymoron. The abuse of Air Force One as a campaign platform is both stunning and blatant—and a transparent hypocrisy that only Obama could get away … [Read more...]

In Trayvon Martin Case, Life Imitates Art

In Tom Wolfe’s bestselling novel “Bonfire of the Vanities,” a liberal New York prosecutor who yearned for a “Great White Defendant” got his wish when a wealthy stockbroker named Sherman McCoy ran over a black teenager in a case of questionable self-defense. The prosecutor, left-wing racial activists and a sensationalist media fed off each other, leading to a state of pure hysteria where the facts were all swept … [Read more...]

Tancredo: Our Choice – Impeachment or Dictatorship

Urges House to begin proceedings against Obama ASAP   Almost every week brings a new reason for the United States House of Representatives to bring impeachment charges against President Obama. The question of the day is not why he should be impeached but why it hasn’t already been done. This week it was Secretary of Defense Panetta’s declaration before the Senate Armed Services Committee that he and … [Read more...]

Memo to Congress: Impeach Probe Needed Now!

Barack Obama is indeed succeeding in his plans to “transform America,” but not in the way voters expected on Election Day in 2008. The number of the president’s actions that arguably qualify as impeachable offenses is staggering. The question before the country is what to do about it. True, Obama faces the voters in 8-9 months, and that will be seen by many as a reason to avoid the turmoil of an impeachment … [Read more...]

One Language Will Unify Us

I am constantly baffled by the contradictions among our cultural and media elites when it comes to proposals for establishing the English language as the official language of our nation. Although they admit the necessity of English proficiency for both educational and economic advancement, they habitually oppose any policy proposal to establish English as our national language. No law can or should compel … [Read more...]

Tancredo: Bigots vs. Pat Buchanan

MSNBC’s decision to dismiss Pat Buchanan shows the depths to which the mainstream media has caved to far-left pressure groups like the Southern Poverty Law Center, the National Council of La Raza, Color of Change and Media Matters. There can be no doubt that these smear operations were responsible for Buchanan’s dismissal. Color of Change claims to have sent 275,000 petitions through the group CREDO Action … [Read more...]

Tancredo: Yes, Santorum Can Beat Obama

"Put in the most simple terms, we are at a crossroads because Barack Obama has brought us there. He is the first genuine Marxist to sit in the White House, and his agenda is to dismantle our capitalist economy and destroy American influence in the world." One of the most reliable truisms in politics is full of irony: When it comes to predicting presidential elections, conventional wisdom is nearly always … [Read more...]

Why is Boehner Blocking Immigration Enforcement Bill?

As if we needed a reminder that America has a unique two party system—“the evil party and the stupid party”—Republican House Speaker Boehner has provided it yet again. He is blocking a floor vote on a bill that could create a million or more jobs –and at no cost to taxpayers. That Boehner thinks this is smart politics tells you all you need to know about the bankruptcy of Beltway Republican strategic … [Read more...]

Tancredo: House Speaker Needs a Backbone Transplant

Rumors abound this week of secret negotiations, backdoor meetings and veiled threats aimed at halting Rep. Issa’s investigation of the Fast and Furious scandal. Regretfully, such rumors are all too credible given Speaker Boehner’s history of always seeking a compromise even when victory is in sight. This is what passes for pragmatism in Republican leadership circles: They settle for crumbs from the table instead … [Read more...]

Patriotic Assimilation is as American as, well, as Broncos Football!

I confess I am not a zealous football fan, and until a month ago, I hoped Tim Tebow would don a Colorado Rockies uniform so I could get really excited about him. But like the other five million residents of Colorado, I have come to love the amazing Broncos quarterback who does not hide his evangelical Christian faith. According to a poll by a national sports magazine, Tebow is today the most popular American … [Read more...]

Obama’s Transparent Hypocrisy in Harassing Arizona’s Sheriff Arpaio

As part of the Obama administration’s lawsuit against Arizona’s new law, SB 1070, President Obama’s lawyers had an Immigration and Custom’s Enforcement bureaucrat, Daniel Ragsdale, file a brief to the court against the state of Arizona. What Ragsdale said about immigration law enforcement gives the lie both to the Obama lawsuit and to their current attacks on Sheriff Joe Arpaio. ICE bureaucrat Ragsdale argued that … [Read more...]

Iranian Dissidents Face Obama-Made Holocaust

If you are having trouble understanding Obama’s Iran policy, you are not alone. But for the 3,400 Iranian dissidents living at Camp Ashraf, Obama’s Iran policy is more than confounding, it is a death sentence. Obama’s Iran policies are leading to a highly preventable holocaust for the residents of Camp Ashraf, located just North of Baghdad in Northern Iraq.  The Iranian dissidents living in the camp face imminent … [Read more...]

Is the Constitution Partisan?

All public officials, elected or appointed, federal, state and local, take an oath to preserve and defend the Constitution. This is supposed to remind them and us that the Constitution stands above politics, and our primary loyalty is to the rule of law itself, not to any party, program or political agenda. But the dirty little secret of American politics is that the American left thinks this oath and this loyalty is … [Read more...]

Were the Founders Pro-Immigration?

Lynn Holland, who apparently teaches something called "comparative politics" at the University of Denver, says, "Tancredo misunderstands the fundamental nature of American citizenship." My offense? I urge Americans "to be proud of our Western civilization." I say "Western civilization is our history." And I warn that "The countries of Western Europe are being invaded by 'Islamo-fascists,' while here in the … [Read more...]

Republican Record on Border Security: 25 Years of Broken Promises

History is apparently not Newt Gingrich’s strong suit, despite the fact that he has a Ph.D. in history and taught it in college before entering politics. Probably he knows a lot about Greek or Roman history, but things that happened only 25 years ago? Don’t ask. Gingrich suggests it would be “humane” to allow illegal aliens “who have been here 25 years, go to church and raise children in our communities” — let’s … [Read more...]

‘Fast and Furious’ Smoking Guns: Gunwalker a Ploy for Gun Control

Originally published, "A smoking gun for 'Fast and Furious," Oct. 7, 2011, WND The other shoe has dropped in the "Fast and Furious" gun-walking scandal, and it has landed on Eric Holder's doorstep. Members of Congress are calling for his resignation, and the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee has called for a special … [Read more...]

A Message to the UN: Stay Out of America’s Elections

In November 2012 – Foreign bureaucrats will appear at your polling station to ensure you adhere to their vision of a ‘fair’ election.  Local polling officials who dare to enforce state clean election laws will be subject to lawsuits and arrest. Conservative political speech will be deemed hateful and be suppressed.  Just enough voter fraud will be allowed to ensure a second term for Barack Hussein … [Read more...]
