Left-Wing Hysteria and Arizona's Plight

The following blog was motivated by posts from the two most devote Facebook friends. One is all over MoveOn.org. The other writes his own naive and ignorant blogs and follows like a moth to a flame any thing Credo cretins post. I wonder if they have any idea what the law really says. One is unemployed. -RMF
The current frenzy sweeping the left concerning Arizona’s effort to control the massive tide of illegal aliens rushing into their state reveals the true character of the liberal mindset and how destructive and defeating it is.

Is there anything that offends them or that they disagree with they’re not armed with some term of demonization ready to fly as a quick knee jerk reaction?

In this case, Arizona is RACIST. There efforts are an attack against, let’s use their favorite phrase that sounds so phony, “people of color,” which an old school English teacher would say should be “colored people” to be grammatically correct, but African-Americans used to be called “colored people” back when segregation was still the norm, so they were renamed something else and something else and something else which is another part of the liberal game, if you don’t like the reality of something, change the name. Arizona is dealing with illegal aliens, but the left would call them undocumented workers, residents, or event citizens. Hmm, interesting.

In typical “Chicken Little” fashion, the messengers for the progressive cause, are dashing about screaming, “The sky is falling!!!” Well, in this case they’re screaming Arizona passed a law so they can round up people of Latino origin and either put them in detention facilities they would compare to or call concentration camps or deport them back to Mexico. The analogies to Nazi Germany are a huge part of their propaganda campaign. Anyone who sympathizes with Arizona’s action is a racist! Like Chicken Little, once another left wing hysteria campaign cuts loose, Chicken Little and the rest of the dumb clucks in their movement getting further support from the main stream media and sobbing celebrities in the entertainment industry repeat the Orwellian “big lies” which the barnyard clucks in the Liberal hen house are supposed to never question. After all, all the dumb clucks want to spread the word and if MoveOn.org raises a stink, well consider their edict to be marching orders.

The simple truth is the Arizona law essentially restates the Federal law committing the state to the same positions. Only those already stopped for some other probable cause can be questioned about their residency. Lost in all of this, in exchange for an alien’s presence in the United States, one must carry identification which identifies their presence as legal to begin with. The bottom line is anyone obeying the law cannot be processed by the terms of this law and would have a rock solid defense should a mistake be made. The Arizona legislature knew the kinds of things critics would assail and crafted a bill carefully to address all concerns.


Arizona is in a crisis situation. Phoenix leads the world in the number of kidnappings most part of drug gang activity. Its schools and hospitals have their resources spread thin and tax payers are picking up the tab for the illegal aliens being served by those vital institutions. The land along the southern border can be a chaotic lawless mess where adequate border defenses aren’t effective. It’s hard for folks in Massachusetts, Rhode Island or Wisconsin to understand such things and then there’s always the “red herring” that it’s obviously racist what they’re doing because nobody bordering Canada where nice white people live have similar concerns. Well, are there any floods of illegal aliens rushing the border crossing the Rainbow Bridge at Niagara Falls? How are things going along the Washington/British Columbia border?

The motives of the Liberal Brain Trust are obvious. They’re using the race card as part of the game of identity politics attempting to divide the population, create a victim class and lock them in as loyal members of their cause. By attempting to identify those who want to control the borders as racist, they seek to create hysteria among all who they can nudge to thinking themselves as a persecuted minority. By creating a picture of racism directed against Latino, they bridge the lawful Latino population who obeys the law who came here legally with those here illegally. In fact, if all were on the table and the issue discussed honestly, should not those who worked hard to be here legally be offended that others are attempting to gain the same rights and privileges they enjoy without paying the price?

All across the nation, Left-Wing Chicken Little’s are demanding boycotts of everything Arizona, a state facing economic hardships spread thinner by the damages of the lawlessness flooding in from south of the border. Some measures go as far as orders from the governor, votes by state legislatures and city councils. They have a big target in mind, Major League Baseball’s All Star Game scheduled to play in Phoenix in 2011. Such events bring much money into a region with the media and fans that come into the area for such an event. MoveOn.org among others is putting the heat on MLB to play the game somewhere else. Surely, something will be directed at the BCS for the Fiesta Bowl as well. It won’t stop until they see they are being ignored and the events take place successfully anyway.

Insisting on the rule of law is not racist. Demanding action against those who work around immigration law is not racist.

The same old refrains keep being sung. Barack Obama is leading the chorus screaming it’s unfair to target people based on their ethnicity, skin color, style of dress, or how they talk. How convenient. Of course we don’t persecute those who speak French who might cross into America along the Canadian border with upstate New York, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine. We don’t have a problem with Anglican/Canadians entering America. Once again, here’s the Liberal “big lie” at work. The reason we don’t is there is no problem with Canadians. If such an influx were creating problems among the northern border states, the results would be similar. Just like most terrorists who’ve acted against the United States are Islamic most illegal aliens are Latinos mostly from Mexico.

Honesty and reality are a real problem for the left. Because they want something to be a certain way, they think their ideological dreams and schemes are so noble any means to reach their ends will always be justified. Demonizing their opponents and lying about what’s really going on is fair game.

We would hope regardless of where all Americans stand on this issue, they would first at least learn the facts of the situation and then make up their minds. This writer is not convinced Arizona’s approach is the correct way to go, but also accepts the problem is out of control and demands immediate action something that was not forthcoming until they took their action last month.

Take the emotion ginned up by the radical left out of the picture and deal with the real problems that exist in Arizona, then the rational discussion and content of the subject matter aren’t so far fetched.
