GOV. BREWER, PLEASE SIGN HB 2177
Written by on April 18, 2011, 01:48 PM
With just her signature, Gov. Brewer can change the American political landscape. HB 2177 has already passed the Arizona State House and State Senate. The legislation would require candidates for the highest office in the land to prove their qualifications.
Among those qualifications, candidates for United States President must have been born in the United States – or at least on a military base near the Panama Canal, in Sen. John McCain’s case.
Alas, despite having been elected, Mr. Obama has seen fit to show little proof to the American people that he is, himself, an American. At least by birth. If he was born in Hawaii, where is the certificate? Why do their seem to be more people in Kenya who remember his birth than here in America?
Whatever the case, it is not for us at BAN AMNESTY NOW or the Conservative Leadership Coalition to judge. We aren’t about the candidates, we’re only about the issues. In this case, the issue is good government, honesty in public service and transparency in politics.
It may be easy to criticize Mr. Obama for refusing to produce his credentials, but the fact is, the American presidency is one of the foremost seats of world power. The U.S. Constitution explicitly states what qualifications must be met for a candidate to run.
We should herald the passage of HB 2177 in Arizona, and call for its quick passage in all 50 states, because without bringing harm to any individual it further strengthens the trust the American public can and should have that our system is still working after more than two centuries.
With that in mind, we fervently hope that Governor Brewer will sign HB 2177 into law and ask likeminded Americans from across the nation to contact her office and encourage her accordingly.

When federal agents raided a chain of Chuy’s Restaurants across Arizona and California, more than 40 illegal aliens were arrested, along with several of the chain’s top executives were arrested, including the father-and-son owners and their accountant. Yes, LA RAZA & CO will scream and moan, but the illegal aliens apprehended here, aren't the victims. Neither are the business owners accused of breaking the law. The real victims are the legal employees whose jobs will be lost because their employer refused to obey the law.

Illegal immigrants leave when laws are enforced.
The Migration Policy Institute report cited in the article found that consistent enforcement leads illegal immigrants to leave the United States voluntarily. This counters arguments that amnesty is the way to solve illegal immigration.

"Any honest assessment on 9/11 this year, ten years after the attacks, I think will have to conclude we are slowly losing the war," Gingrich said. "We are losing the war because madrasas are out there teaching hatred, we're losing the war because the network of terror is bigger, not smaller... We're losing the war because there's a real possibility that in a few weeks, unfortunately, Egypt will join Iran and join Lebanon and join Gaza and join the things that are happening that are extraordinarily dangerous.

The Department of Homeland Security is designed to keep our borders strong, our country safe, and to enforce our immigration laws. Under Obama and Janet Napolitano, however, the DHS is not guided by any of these key values, but rather, by their own self-serving agenda... regardless of how unfair that agenda is to U.S. citizens. Recently, Napolitano actually went so far as to claim that Congress must pass the DREAM Act because the DREAM Act will make our borders stronger and will allow DHS to "do its job of enforcing the nation's immigration law."

“An illegal immigrant should still be in Colorado awaiting trial. Instead, he was escorted to the Mexican border and set free.” Yes, that’s right, he was not only set free; he was set free by ICE!
