A Former ACU Intern Confirms Its Anti-Amnesty Fund-Raising Scam; etc.
From:
John Robert Kennedy (e-mail
him)
Re: A. W. Morgan’s Column:
That Mount Vernon Statement: Beltway Right Ignores
Immigration (Again). But They Still Want Your Money
Morgan’s piece was incredibly
precise in its depiction of Washington D.C.’s political
fund-raising scams.
As a former intern at the
American
Conservative Union, I can confidently confirm
that Morgan is 100 percent correct about the way it
deals with those postcards/donations.
During the summer of 2007, when I
did my intern stint, I filed out donor cards and took
calls for $150 a week.
Every day, I drove to the ACU without
air conditioning and left Old
Town Alexandria in rush hour traffic so I could
support conservatism. Obviously, my paltry $150 wage
barely covered my meals and gas expenses.
This was the summer of
George W. Bush’s amnesty push and I hoped the
ACU would kick some butt.
They mass mailed senior citizens
about the looming amnesty crisis, of course. I saw the
angry responses we got.
The elderly donors were sincerely
upset about the amnesty threat—but the
ACU officials didn’t care about
America’s looming destruction one way or the other.
The ACU used the amnesty issue to
make money by cashing the checks but flinging the
postcards into the trash.
All the while of course, the
big shots collected their salaries but did nothing
about the prospect of millions of illegal aliens being
amnestied.
I greatly appreciated Morgan’s take
on this corruption and I look forward to reading more of
his columns.

A North Carolina Home Economist Says Anchor Baby’s Diet Is Not So Bad
From:
Teresa Saffell (e-mail
her)
Re: Today’s Letter: An
Oklahoma Reader Says Immigrants Should Be Able To Feed
Their Own Children
The diet of beans, tortillas and
egg that Maritza Hernandez provides for her
five-year-old son that letter writer Henry Ridge
described is not all that bad.
Eggs and beans are nutritious and
have protein. With the addition of a green vegetable and
possibly some rice, it would be an adequate although not
fancy meal. Millions of Mexicans have lived for
centuries on the same
food staples.
The larger question is why the
Hernandez family hasn’t gotten
food stamps or
assistance from any of the dozens of Hispanic
outreach groups including the
Roman Catholic Church.
As we painfully know, those
organizations are more than eager to help aliens in
their time of need. In truth, however, they would be
better off at home in Mexico.

Another North Carolina Reader Says Aliens Need Lessons On How To Make The Best Use Of The Food Stamps You Pay For
From: John
Pershing (e-mail
him)
Most all English speaking native born
American citizens on food stamps and/or with WIC babies
at least buy most of their groceries at mainstream
regional chain grocery stores.
When using their
EBT cards and WIC
vouchers, most welfare recipients don’t make wise
nutritional and economic purchases.
I’ve seen
morbidly obese grocery buyers with overweight
children pay for $90.00 worth of eligible foodstuffs
that included fatback, country ham,
potato chips, bacon, the
most expensive brand of sugar coated cereals instead of
plain house brands, eight packs of 8 oz. convenience
packaged orange juice at over twice the per ounce price
of bulk container sizes.
Then, when they finish their food
stamp transaction, they purchase for cash
ineligible items which include Chinet
paper plates, the most
expensive brands of household cleaning products, a case
of beer, two jugs of wine, and two cartons of
cigarettes.
But the illegal alien invasion has
compounded the insults to taxpayers I’ve
described above.
Now
illegal immigrant food stamp users patronize the
independent
bodegas that liter our landscape and cater to a
plethora of ethnic grocery buyers.
Guess what? The
bodegas also
accept food stamps and WIC vouchers. Their shelves are
loaded with non-perishable ethnic food products imported
from as close as
to as far away as
Thailand and India.
Many of these products have exact or
close equivalents of mainstream nationally produced
foods but others fall into the category of
bush meat or substances used in ceremonial
incantations of one kind of Shaman or other.
Most are very expensive. Calculate the
cost of hauling a load of, for example, canned pickled
squid fillets from Bangkok
to
through the ethnic food
distribution network. Then compare that total to
the cost of the items in your pantry.
What’s wrong with supermarket house
brand long grain rice? Why does the rice have to have
the brand name
Lupita’s and sell for 50 percent more than the
Arkansas
rice I use? Is there something wrong with
grocery brand loyalty assimilation in
I have
written earlier on this misappropriation of taxpayer
funds with a description of the Costa Rican welfare
foodstuffs program where participants can only buy a
limited number of items at government-run grocery
stores.
The
needs to convert to the Costa Rican method if it plans
to continue handing out food you pay for willy-nilly.
After all, the
food stamp program is
run by the
U.S. Department of Agriculture. What part of
U.S.
is not being understood here?

A Virginia Reader Urges
VDARE.COM Editors And Contributors To Procreate
From: Herman
King (e-mail him)
Finally, I found at
VDARE.COM columnists who see and write the
unvarnished truth about the alien invasion.
May all of you procreate and may
your offspring share with the nation the same lucid
insight you have been blessed with.
I’ll add that I recognized from the
beginning that the
Tea Party movement was being hijacked by the
neocons and pseudo-cons.
My two Democratic Senators,
Jim Webb and
Mark Warner, pose as moderates but really are
knee-jerk liberals.
