Former CEO Craig Miller, a recently announced candidate for U.S. Senate, sits down with Javier Manjarres of the Shark-Tank and explains why he’s running to challenge 40yr. career politician Bill Nelson.
Inevitably, the topic of immigration came up and Miller responds at length….
Fireworks broke the darkness of the sky over Washington last night in a choreographed dance of light that paid tribute to our nation’s independence. It was a breathtaking display marking America’s birth of freedom–a sight to behold, a sight to remember.
Last week, another choreographed display befell Washington as more than 200 illegal immigrants were welcomed into the U.S. Capitol as props for Senator Dick Durbin’s (D–IL) immigration reform show…
Federal Resources Also Re-Directed To Further La Raza, Other Far Left Causes
When the National Labor Relations Board is not adding to our economic woes by suing American corporations and doing the bidding of the labor unions, it’s strenuously working to protect illegal immigrants.
Judicial Watch reports that the Obama Labor Department has entered formal agreements with two foreign countries vowing to preserve the rights of their migrants.
As reported today on Marco Rubio’s web site;
This week, Senator Rubio signed on as an original co-sponsor to Senator Charles Grassley’s Achieving Accountability Through Electronic Verification Act.
This bill would permanently reauthorize the E-Verify electronic employment verification system and it would make the utilization of this system mandatory for all employers.

Rep. Lamar Smith, Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, has invited potential U.S. Senate candidate Craig Miller to testify at an Immigration Subcommittee hearing today in Washington, D.C. in support of E-Verify legislation.
The Legal Workforce Act (H.R. 2164) improves the E-Verify system and makes it mandatory for all U.S. employers…

It appears that The Florida Legislature will once again bend to the will of special interests when it comes to addressing the illegal immigration problem in this state.
At a time when more and more states are finding the political courage to take on this unpopular issue, Florida continues to err on the side of money and power. Business as usual.

As the fourth largest state for illegal immigration, Florida citizens and the state itself bear an annual financial burden of $5.463 billion (per FAIR).
Because Georgia and Alabama are passing E-Verify legislation, Florida will then become the premier job magnet if it doesn’t have the courage to pass SB 2040 in the Senate and HB 7089 in the House, requiring a strong E-Verify program…

I’m very surprised at the arrogance displayed in Senator Bill Nelson’s latest tweet. He must feel his support of rail will win him campaign favor.
Businesses who will profit from this government rail and liberals are going to flood the public with high speed rail support. Who will listen to us??
Once again the mainstream media is doing a disservice to the American people.
Not only are the actions of the media in this case completely irresponsible, but it’s a downright dangerous bias that could very well lead to the loss of innocent lives.
And, yes, a decision NOT to cover a story is as much an action as is a decision to cover it.
Make no mistake about it, this is a clear sign of all that is wrong in our country.
With Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam firmly in their corner, Florida business leaders are openly advocating for the relaxed enforcement of the laws of this land for the good of business. And what a slippery slope that is!
And this puts Republican lawmakers of this state in a difficult position. Or does it?

Women have the power. They take their right to vote seriously and show up at the polls in greater numbers than men according to the Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers University.
In 2008, 60.4 percent of eligible female voters cast their vote versus 55.7% of eligible males. According to the same study, more women are registered to vote than men, 66.6 million versus 63.5 million. Maybe that’s why the “War on Women” has taken a front seat in this election…

This post kicks off a three-part series about the crisis of spending, debt and deficits.
The next part deals with the interval between now and the inevitable arrival of the Minsky Moment, i.e. the unknown and unknowable time when an unsustainable economic phenomenon suddenly collapses.
The third post will address Gotterdammerung, or what happens after the Minsky Moment.

It’s a fair guess that Connie Mack has seen some recent polling that has gotten his attention.
As the week closed out, the rhetoric coming from the Mack campaign took on a rather fervent pitch. In a press release sent out Thursday, it made the claim that opponent George LeMieux has “endorsed raising Florida’s sales tax to a nation-leading 16 percent.”

Florida Democrats believe they can win a few Republican seats in Congress and are preparing a major offensive against several Republicans facing tough challenges this year. They believe that redistricting gives them a chance to offset the seats they are sure to give up.
However, the Democrats still fail to realize the albatross that ObamaCare places on their party’s efforts…

A big well dressed black guy attended the Dallas, TX tea party rally with his white buddy. Both men missed my singing performance on stage minutes earlier.
I asked the black gentleman who had an impressive physique how often he worked out. He replied, “Everyday.” His white buddy said with a chuckle, “He thinks the Tea Party is racist.”
