Hispanic vote: government and immigration
Every year there seems to be another push for comprehensive “immigration” reform. This is always an unpopular political venue. It’s always he said she said. Let’s try this again. Immigration reform. But this is especially popular when it comes time for the voting pool. Presidential candidates make a pledge. A pledge for hmm to at least talk to the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC). I’m just pointing out my thoughts. The LULAC has a voice.
LULAC
After all the location :
LULAC
National Office
2000 L Street NW
Suite 610
Washington DC 20036
Tel: (202) 833-6130 Fax: (202) 833-6135
It’s right down the street from the White House. So it’s not like this is a new subject with congress, senate, or the President and his cabinet. Every year all the time. There seems to be some talk, but maybe we need to ad some ear marks to the next proposition.
Then we have the Arizona State’s now infamous Senate Bill 1070, which requires the police to verify the status of someone they have stopped or arrested if they suspect that the person in the country illegally. The only reason this law was enacted & passed was to mirror the Federal Law which has not been enforced very well.
The bottom line is immigration started this country, but where do you draw the line.
I understand that families and or individuals are wanting a better life. Better living conditions, food, schools, etc…. Wait with all that comes law enforcement. Some thing that was created to protect us so we could enjoy the better life; for ourselves and our family. If your here legally then there is nothing to worry about, but if your not. Not so good.
And what the couples that are here illegally and they have Anchor Babies: Part of the Immigration-Related American Lexicon. I understand the theme of a better life, but I do not agree with putting another person’s life in jeopardy.
Here are some stats pulled from Poder Hispanic Magazine August/September 2010

Israel policy may lead to deportation of kids: The country is preparing to deport children of migrant workers in an attempt to stem illegal immigration.

Here is something to think about; in certain country’s if your an illegal immigrant and your caught your just locked up.
Maybe one day the immigration ruling could be resolved in a manner acceptable to everyone.
Maybe.

Mr. President Barack Obama: Jobs, Work, and Careers
“We will go through our Federal Budget – Page by Page, line by line – eliminating those programs we don’t need.”

Well Mr. President it’s half time and the third quarter is about to start. You are the CIC: The Commander in Chief and I don’t think there has been any positive progress. Which is to bad.

Have a great day!!!

Muslim Electrolux workers in St. Cloud
Here is the article: 165 Muslim Electrolux workers in St. Cloud get OK to break fast for Ramadan. The workers, backed by the Minnesota chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), had charged Electrolux with violating the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
This looks more like “cry wolf.” So if I go to Church every Sunday and then all of a sudden the needs of the business “XYZ Corporation” where I work decides I have to work now every Sunday. Now I can “Cry Wolf” because this is a violation of my Civil Rights. Specifically 1964 Civil Rights Act. Hmm an accommodation for me to go to Church on Sunday where I have already been going every Sunday.
When anyone applies for a job right on the application it is stated:
Are you able to perform the essential functions of the job for which you are applying, either with / without reasonable accommodation? [ ] Y or [ ] N
If no, describe the functions that cannot be performed
_____________________________________________________________
(Note: Company complies with the ADA and consider reasonable accommodation measures that may be necessary for eligible applicants/employees to perform essential functions. It is possible that a hire may be tested on skill/agility and may be subject to a medical examination conducted by a medical professional.)
So should every Muslim stated when Ramadan time shows up that Electrolux needs to give us reasonable accommodations? I don’t think any of the Muslims would have been hired.
Maybe the company needs to build a Mosque in the complex and remove the break room. I think it would only be fair for Electrolux to give the Christians, the non-Christians, non Believers, Smokers and non-Smokers should all get reasonable accommodations. Otherwise they should also file a lawsuit againts Electrolux.
Mosque in New York City?
I love this comment from Jason Horowitz the Washington Post- New Yorkers on both sides of the Islamic center argument are angry at outsiders who don’t understand the city and fan the flames: “They are trying to create propaganda.” The Article comes from the Star Tribune – Saturday, August 21, 2010 which was actually printed in the Washington Post: By JASON HOROWITZ, Washington Post, Last update: August 20, 2010 – 9:26 PM. I will ad just one more quote from the article:
Newt Gingrich has argued, among other things, that the Muslim congregation shouldn’t build the center because “Nazis don’t have the right to put up a sign next to the Holocaust Museum in Washington.” Sarah Palin has weighed in, too, in opposing the “ground zero mosque.” The pain she said, is “too raw, too real.”
Now I would like to know why after all these years since September 11, 2001 that, now a religious group who is associated with Terrorism in the United States is pushing to put up a Mosque in the vicinity of the Terrorist Attack that took place. What and why is this location so important? Why now?
Who wants to be the newbie in charge?
“FOR THE PEOPLE ABOUT THE PEOPLE” Another four years is about to come to an end; for our current President. “But what has he and his cabinet done for Our Country?” So the arena has opened up to new candidates. A new aura into the future of our country. Every candidate will bring something to the table, but I ask who wants more than one helping?
Nothing has been done in Government except for each political party just points the finger at each other. Who did this and who did that. Corruption at it’s finest. But wait it is all on the Government level. Lawyers make rules to protect themselves and no one else.
Wow!! Have a nice day.
