Moving on

Mexican government officials have moved their satellite consular office from the Catalina Island Country Club to a Catholic Church – citing protection under the Vienna Convention – after it was discovered that they did not have the appropriate paperwork to issue the island’s illegal immigrants identification cards.
Since The Washington Examiner reported that the management of the club, on the island of Catalina, discovered that the event was not a multi-cultural celebration as they had been told and refused to allow the Mexican government to set up shop.
The Mexican officials will provide “matricular” card services to Mexican nationals at St. Catherine’s Church, on the island.
So the Mexican Government lied about what they were going to do and got the boot! And now they have retreated to a Church to seek sanctuary.
Notice, they aren’t doing it on Mexican Consular grounds…They know what they are doing.
But like all socialists and Leftist, they don’t care.
The end justify the means.

After Gov. Brewer hit-and-run meeting the President:
When asked if she thinks the president has read the law, Brewer only smiled.

In a written statement, the White House said Obama reiterated his concern over the law and how it could lead to a patchwork of different state immigration regulations that would interfere with the federal government’s response.
WHAT FEDERAL RESPONSE?
To sue us, call us “misquided” and let your cronies calls us Nazis and racists!?
Is that the response you’re referring to!?
“The president urged Gov. Brewer to be his partner in working in a bipartisan manner on comprehensive immigration reform to implement the type of smart, sensible, and effective solutions the American people expect and deserve from their federal government,” the White House said.
“Comprehensive Immigration Reform” all-or-nothing Amnesty, not border security.
Neither side wants anything less.
The Democrats want to pander to Latinos for potential voters.
Republicans want cheap laborers.
And the American People get the shaft in the meantime.

Sestak
The official White House position now that they got the Great Perjurer Bill Clinton to fall on the sword for them, but no one is letting up on them is ‘Talk to the hand’.
It’s all in the memo.
We have nothing to hide.
Obviously the Sestak affair has no intention of going away, but what will make the difference between this turning out to be a bump in the road and a life-threatening wreck is whether Sestak-gate is an isolated instance of Chicago-style political corruption, or part of a visible pattern.
On top of the Sestak offer, the president is now fending off concerns about a similar but possibly more serious case of offering government jobs to yet another maverick Democrat to get him out of a primary race.
Colorado state Rep. Andrew Romanoff said Wednesday that the White House discussed the possibility of three different government jobs that “might be available” if he agreed not to follow through and challenge incumbent Sen. Michael Bennet in Colorado’s Democratic primary. Bennet was appointed senator early last year by Democratic Gov. Bill Ritter to fill the seat vacated by Ken Salazar, Obama’s choice for interior secretary.
An e-mail from deputy White House chief of staff Jim Messina dated Sept. 11, 2009, alluded to two different posts with the U.S. Agency for International Development, as well as director of the U.S. Trade and Development Agency. That latter post ended up being filled by Leocadia Zak, who with her husband contributed more than $10,000 to the Obama campaign.
As if all that weren’t enough, the federal corruption trial of Illinois’ ousted Democratic Gov. Rod Blagojevich, accused of trying to sell the U.S. Senate seat once held by Obama, will most likely require the testimony of Emanuel.
The only way to get to the bottom of all this is to get those involved under oath, have a dispassionate prosecutor ask them pointed questions and compare the cast of characters’ answers. Attorney General Eric Holder will have to decide whom his ultimate boss is — a president interested in damage control or the American people.
In the meantime, the president has some answering to do, because Sestak-gate and Romanoff-gate won’t go away. He will be asked whether “Change We Can Believe In” was just a well-timed — and ultimately deceptive — slogan.(IBD)
I’m shocked and appalled!
Corrupt Chicago Politics!
Never!
So what’s next for the Campaigner-in-Chief, a new tour?
Maybe he can vacation in Miami with all those Latinos who will be covered in Oil!
President Obama: “I’m in charge of oil spill cleanup”
But he’s a community orginizer, a Chicago political machine thug, an agitator, intimidator, not a Leader.
He forces people to bend to his will, not lead.
And Mother Nature has spoken.
She rained on his Memorial Day Speech.
So I guess it’s time for a new Crisis  so we can pass our 19th Century solutions called Cap & Trade.
After all, never waste a good crisis.
Never Lead, either.

It's a Rough Life

Reportedly, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napalitano spends lots of time at the Opera, in The President’s box. (WW)
It’s much better than reading The AZ immigration Law.
Or Securing the border AGAINST Illegal Aliens.
You just put out alerts that known islamic radical recruiters may try and cross the border.
Even when you can’t call them “radical islamists”, and barely utter the word “terrorist”.
And you aren’t planning on doing anything about it anyhow.
You give Obama the idea to make the same show piece “look ma, I’m doing something” move by sending 1,200 troops to sit around and do paperwork but make it look like your “securing” the border.
It worked, so you thought, when you were Governor. So why not do it again, but on a grander scale.
Kind of like the Opera.
After all, last year you said the terrorists you were worried about were “right wingers” and military people, OUR military people.
Who cares about actual terrorists.
Certainly not our Big Sis.

Then, the latest spin from the White House on the Joe Sestek case, that they took nearly 2 weeks after the primary (and 3 months after Sestak first said it) where he defeated Obama-backed Arlen Specter, to say that the offer they made to him which would have been a crime if it was quid pro quo goes like this, according to the White House…
Rahm “Never let a crisis go to waste” Emanuel, White House Chief of Staff, asked Bill Clinton to ask Joe Sestek if he’d be interested in an “non-compensated” Government promotion (of sorts).
And so, the report this morning that former President Bill Clinton was tasked by White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel to make such an approach to Rep. Joe Sestak — allegedly offering him an unpaid advisory role on an intelligence board in exchange for getting him to drop his primary bid against Sen. Arlen Specter (Pa.) — would not normally raise much of a stir in official Washington.
That the story has become a major controversy, a regular fixture on cable news chat shows and a momentum-killer for Sestak following his come-from behind victory against Specter in last week’s Pennsylvania primary is evidence of how the White House mishandled the controversy, according to conversations with several high-level Democratic strategists.
“How do you make something out of nothing?,” asked one such operative who was granted anonymity to speak candidly about the matter. “By acting guilty when you’re innocent.”
Another senior party official said that the White House “has a lot of egg on their face” and described the events as a “PR nightmare”.
So they couldn’t even handle this without screwing it up. And you want to trust The Supreme Court, Health Care, Congress, and the nations future to these nuckleheads?!
But you have to admire Obama for choosing Bill Clinton as the patsy. You have a President that was impeached (just not removed from office) for PERJURY as your star player!!
And, his biggest rival, Hillary, has another, “Oh, Bill…” moment to deal with.
Very savvy.
So I wonder what Bill Clinton got out of it?
So, no gentle readers, I don’t buy this lipstick on this pig.
If it was this ing simple and you could off-load it onto Bill Clinton why the hell did you wait so long?
Why all the stonewalling?
Repeatedly.
Because they were working on this “explanation”. They had to manufacture it.
It had to sound plausible so that even the Liberal Media that was hounding them would buy it.
That’s why.
Kind of like the Administration protestation that they were on the Oil Spill from “Day One” but never mentioned it until Day 8.
And Never, to this day, have even acknowledged the 500-year flood in Tennessee.
Other than knowing it’s where Al Gore was from, do they even know where it is?
And why was that not a crisis?
Nothing to exploit, apparently.
So will Bill Clinton be behind the Oil spill and the Birth Certifcate also?
Ah, shucks…
Allies of the White House argue that the Sestak situation was less PR blunder than conscious choice to accept some short term pain for long term gain (or at least less long term pain).
Their argument is that the White House could have pushed out an answer to the Sestak job controversy quickly but, in so doing, would have run the risk of not having all the facts of a relatively complex situation straight — making it a real possibility that they would be bludgeoned by the press if there was a mistake or inconsistency in the original statement.(Washington Post).
They had to get their story straight first, and hide the bodies and the evidence….:(
Kind like that fishy story of Obama going to see his “grandmother” very unexpectedly during the campaign when the Birth Certificate was a hot issue and then the Officials in Hawaii comes out says “there’s not thing see here!”
It’s smells rotten.
At Least Obama has one Clinton willing to throw down his “honor” for the cause though.
Hey Bill, Can I get you to….
Aw, Shucks, Barack…
Congressman Darell Issa (who has been pushing for a Special Investigator):
“The White House has offered a version of events that has important differences from what Congressman Sestak has been saying for months – that he was offered a ‘job’ by ’someone in the White House’ in exchange for leaving the Pennsylvania Senate race.
“I’m very concerned that…the White House has…worked to craft a story behind closed doors and coordinate with those involved.”
“The White House has admitted today to coordinating an arrangement that would represent an illegal quid-pro-quo as federal law prohibits directly or indirectly offering any position or appointment, paid or unpaid, in exchange for favors connected with an election.
“..Regardless of what President Clinton or Congressman Sestak now say, it is abundantly clear that this kind of conduct is contrary to President Obama’s pledge to change ‘business as usual’ and that his Administration has engaged in the kind of political shenanigans he once campaigned to end.”
Now, if only he could get BP, Illegal Aliens, and that “laser like focus on Jobs” to go away so he could enjoy his “vacation” in Chicago and then get back to taking over more industries and destroying more “greedy” capitalist!
Damn, he needs to play more Golf while Rome burns!
