The death of the stigma of default revisited
I know this is a futile battle. Not sure why I keep trying to fight it. I can’t help it. So, here I go again.
In January 2008, I lambasted the bipartisan “victim politics of foreclosure” and the disappearance of the stigma attached to defaulting on your mortgage.
A refresher:
From President Bush to Hillary Clinton, Barack [...]
Obama’s FCC, liberal churches, and the “media justice” mob
My syndicated column today (reprinted below) probes the FCC/left-wing church alliance to silence conservative critics of illegal immigration through “hate speech” regulation. Tip of the iceberg.
Jeffrey Lord at the American Spectator first broke the story of how United Church of Christ officials met with kindred spirit/FCC Commissioner Michael Copps earlier this month before launching a [...]
House Dems push for illegal alien health care coverage
They are not giving up without a fight.
Via the Washington Times:
Fearful that they’re losing ground on immigration and health care, a group of House Democrats is pushing back and arguing that any health care bill should extend to all legal immigrants and allow illegal immigrants some access.
The Democrats, trying to stiffen their party’s spines on [...]
ACORN’s illegal alien home loan racket
My column today blasts ACORN Housing Corporation’s criminal-enabling home loan program for illegal aliens. To paraphrase Jon Stewart: Where the hell is everyone?
AHC is one of the endless non-profit arms of ACORN. Their response to the BigGovernment.com sting videos hasn’t received as much attention as the national ACORN flagship’s. You can read AHC’s CYA reaction [...]
ACORN/prostitution sting, Part II: D.C. edition

Andrew Breitbart’s investigative team at Big Government has penetrated another ACORN office.
Go watch now.
James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles are performing an invaluable public service.
As I note in Culture of Corruption and have reported previously, the Bush administration bears ample blame for fueling the ACORN housing/mortgage counseling racket. The GOP increased funding for [...]

Obama’s shamnesty distraction
I’m not sure why Drudge is hyping the New York Times’ stenography piece on Obama’s plans to carry through on his promise to pitch a shamnesty bill. It’s not news. It’s a White House-planted distraction sourced mainly to La Raza/The Race lobbyist-turned-White House open borders czar Cecilia Munoz.
I pointed a few weeks ago to Obama’s [...]
Obama’s border talk: I call bull
No, he won’t.
La Raza/The Race lobbyist gets ethics waiver
You’ll love the loophole that lets President Obama violate his no-lobbyist rule in order to bring La Raza/The Race lobbyist Cecilia Munoz on board to work on shamnesty issues from the inside:
It’s a “public interest” exemption.
“Public interest” meaning illegal alien interest, apparently.
Via The Hill:
President Obama has issued waivers allowing two appointees who were formally registered [...]
Gasp: DHS Secretary alarmed that immigration laws enforced under her watch
Oh, the open-borders crowd’s heads are exploding.
Under President Obama and DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano’s watch, federal immigration agents had the nerve to — gasp! — enforce immigration laws.
How could this happen? Quick, launch an investigation! This must not be allowed to stand!
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano on Wednesday ordered a review of a raid at [...]

Juan Hernandez is bummed
Left behind.
Barack Obama has appointed senior VP of The National Council of La Raza (The Race) Cecilia Munoz to “oversee the White House office responsible for relations between the administration and state and local governments.”
Via WaPo:
Munoz, meanwhile, will oversee the White House office responsible for relations between the administration and state and local governments. The [...]

Liberal Beltway fixture Bob Schieffer moderates. I noted in 2004 that he asked a question about immigration during one of the 2004 debates. Wouldn’t it be novel if the subject finally came up tonight? Not that the La Raza twins would differ much. I’m not the only one who wants to [...]

McCain at The Race conference: Capitulation complete; Update: Juan Hernandez to broker meeting with Morones?
As expected, John McCain’s appearance at the annual convention of La Raza/The Race yielded no Hermana Souljah moments. Ed Morrissey points to McCain’s mild, almost apologetic rejoinder to open-borders zealot Enrique Morones and compares it to Barack Obama’s embrace of the radical activist. That’s a relief. But it’s the very least we could expect of [...]
