It has been over two months sense my last post here on bullspit. Not because I don't like you, or because there is a shortage of things to write about, rather because I haven't had the time.
Wherever you stand, please take the time to read this;
..........it will scare the beejeebers out of you!
We know Dick Lamm as the former Governor of Colorado .. In that context his thoughts are particularly poignant. Last week there was an immigration overpopulation conference in Washington , DC , filled to capacity by many of America's finest minds and leaders. A brilliant college professor by the name of Victor Hansen Davis talked about his latest book, 'Mexifornia,' explaining how immigration - both legal and illegal was destroying the entire state of California . He said it would march across the country until it destroyed all vestiges of The American Dream.
Moments later, former Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm stood up and gave a stunning speech on how to destroy America
The audience sat spellbound as he described eight methods for the destruction of the United States He said, 'If you believe that America is too smug, too self-satisfied, too rich, then let's destroy America . It is not that hard to do. No nation in history has survived the ravages of time. Arnold Toynbee observed that all great civilizations rise and fall and that 'An autopsy of history would show that all great nations commit suicide.''
'Here is how they do it,' Lamm said:
'First, to destroy America, turn America into a bilingual or multi-lingual and bicultural country... History shows that no nation can survive the tension, conflict, and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures. It is a blessing for an individual to be bilingual; however, it is a curse for a society to be bilingual. The historical scholar, Seymour Lipset, put it this way: 'The histories of bilingual and bicultural societies that do not assimilate are histories of turmoil, tension, and tragedy.' Canada , Belgium , Malaysia , and Lebanon all face crises of national existence in which minorities press for autonomy , if not independence. Pakistan and Cyprus have divided. Nigeria suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces difficulties with Basques, Bretons, Corsicans and Muslims.'
The Arizona immigration law, recently signed by Governor Jan Brewer, has won few fans. The President, the Mexican government, Meghan McCain, and Janet Napolitano, all are against it. While the debate for now is over the methods, something has to be done about the issue. As it stands, Arizona practically has to run for a personal loan company to deal with the problem as it is.
Janet Napolitano slams Arizona immigration law
The Arizona immigration law was blasted by Janet Napolitano. As head of the Department of Homeland Security, she feels that the law in question "is a misguided law." (From CNN .) The issue has long gone without remedy, and it might come to the fore of Congressional and Presidential agendas.
Meghan McCain breaks rank with famous father
Meghan McCain daughter of John McCain, does not agree with her father on this one. She recently wrote a column on The Daily Beast , she posted that the bill is a "bad law" and it "misses the bigger picture of what is really going on with illegal immigration." She also posted those who don't see the impacts of illegal immigration on a daily basis, good and negative, can't appreciate the complexity of the situation.
The Government of Mexico weighs in
The President of Mexico himself believes Governor Brewer has done numerous a disservice with the bill. President Felipe Calderon issued a statement announcing his frustration with the measure.
With American or should I say, Chicago politician arrogance at its finest, President Barack Obama with wife Michelle visited Copenhagen to pitch their bid for the 2016 Summer Olympic games to be held in Chicago.
Many say the President should not have left amidst discussions on the most controversial bill facing American citizens sense the 1930's. But he did anyways, and Chicago lost in a shocking defeat! Chicago wound up with the fewest votes of the four cities in the first round, partly it seems due to a late sympathy surge for Tokyo, which had widely been expected to drop out first. Considering the Brazilian city's strong and passionate case for taking the Olympics to South America for the first time, they deserve it!
This irrational decision by the US President underscores critics skepticism of Obama's in-ability to make sound priority decisions.
