Fox New, CNN and others, along with the print media keep the immigration problem at the fore front of the news. We are hit, hourly and daily with news about what President Obama wants to do about the problem of illegal immigrants. We don't hear realistic solutions but we do hear how amnesty is the humanitarian thing to do. President Obama's supports make it seem that if you are against amnesty then you are a bigot or worse.
The truth of the matter is that American citizens, all over this country are tired of his lack of leadership and how he seems too far removed from the serious situations facing this country. His liberal ideas and liberal supports don't seem to care about this country or its legal residents.
You can not just give amnesty to illegal immigrants without first investigation who they are and why there are here. Just because they came here as a child, does not give them the right to remain here, especially if they are part of a gang, or they are living off the system. While amnesty may work for those who have entered the military and who have gainful employment, it can not simply be a blanket situation.
Amnesty should be looked at on an individual basis. Criminal records must be reviewed, as well as possible connections to drug cartels in Mexico. How, when and why they came must be assisted, as well as the reasons that kept them from using the Immigration System currently in place.
Amnesty has a place, but it is not necessarily in Immigration Reform. Common sense needs to rule, along with humanitarian reasoning. This is not the America of the past, with vast resources, abundant jobs and land. The Federal Government owns most of the land in the western part of this country and homesteading is a thing of the past. Big business and their lack of a moral compass has helped in the destruction of this country. Small businesses are failing daily and the economy is failing along with them.
Welfare Rolls are overflowing and American Taxpayers are tired of paying for individuals who refuse to work or take responsibility for themselves. Americans are just plain tired of the lies and corruption in Washington and in Big Business.
While many illegal immigrants are honest and hard working, many are not. While many illegal immigrants make wonder neighbors and friends, many do not. There is no easy answer to this problem, but common sense will go a long way in finding one.
Illegal immigrants need to know that this issue will be addressed and that it is their responsibility as well as ours to come up with a solution. If an individual wants to stay in this country and become an American Citizen then they should illustrate this by learning the language, by working hard and by coming forward without fear.
As Americans, we can find a resolution to this problem, without hate and without fear, if we work together,

The Battle For Arizona
All eyes are turned west towards Arizona. The citizens of this beautiful state are under attack from illegal immigrants and from the Federal Government. The State of Arizona is trying to solve a dangerous situation that effects it's citizens. Rape, murder, robbery, and illegal drugs are destroying the state and it's citizens. Arizona and other border states are struggling with uncontrolled immigration, and the Mexican drug cartels.
The Governor of Arizona met with President Obama and he promised that he would send a task force to the state to assess the situation and meet the the Arizona Governor. That was over two weeks ago, and they have yet to show up. This is another example of the lack of leadership from the current administration. It's just another example of how out of touch our President and his administration is. They just want to ignore this dangerous situation. Then to add insult to injury, Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, announces while out of the country, in Ecuador, that President Obama plans to sue the State of Arizona. How outrageous that this was released not from Washington, but a South American country.
The citizens of Arizona have a right to protect themselves and their property, without the Federal Government interfering. The citizens of Arizona have had to tolerate much and they have lost much over the years. Where has the Federal Government been while all of this has been going on? Why have they ignored the cries of the Citizens of Arizona? Why do they put illegal immigrants before the citizens of Arizona and of this Country? Why do they put the President of Mexico in front of the media and let him berate the State of Arizona and it's citizens. This is a man who needs to deal with the problems of his own country and stay out of our Country's business. But, then the government of Mexico publish and distribute pamphlets for illegal immigrants. Money pours across the border from illegal immigrants and into the pockets of the Mexican Government.
Why is the Federal Government suing the State of Arizona? There are vagrancy laws in every state, in every county and in every city or town in this country. If you are stopped by law enforcement in a traffic stop or even jaywalking, you are asked for your papers. Only in this country we call it your drivers license or ID. This is nothing new, if you don't have some form of identification, you can be arrested for vagrancy. Remember the movie Rambo, that's what the title character was arrested for.
The majority of Americans have ancestors that were immigrants. When they first arrived in this country, they went through the immigration process. Why, now after all this time does our government want to hand over this country to illegal immigrants? Why are they ignoring the American Citizens and what we want and what we need? Washington and the power players need to wake up and smell the voting booth. America is tired of their inaction.
Arizona and other border states are dealing with horrific situations that are often life threatening. These states have been left to fend for themselves. Supposed President Obama made a remark that if he secures the borders now, then there will be no support for immigration reform. This was supposedly stated to Senator Kyl in the Oval Office. The video was shown on Bill O'Reilly. Of course, the immediate response was that Senator Kyl misunderstood what the President was saying. It sounds like President Obama stuck his foot in his mouth and the spin doctors are doing damage control.
