Ever Wonder HOW MUCH Immigration Costs us Taxpayers....hold on to your seats!

WOW THIS IS INCREDIBLE. BUILD THE WALL! Subject: Worth forwarding on TIME FOR A REVOLT. Hope these 14 reasons are forwarded over and over again until they are read by the majority of Americans. Then they will have something to yell at their U.S. Congress members. 1. $11 Billion to $22 billion is spent on welfare to illegal aliens each year. http://tinyurl.com/zob77 2. $2.2 Billion dollars a year is spent on food assistance programs such as food stamps, WIC, and free school lunches for illegal aliens. http://www.cis.org/articles/2004/fiscalexec.html 3. $2.5 Billion dollars a year is spent on Medicaid for illegal aliens. http://www.cis.org/articles/2004/fiscalexec.html 4. $12 Billion dollars a year is spent on primary and secondary school education for children here illegally and they cannot speak a word of English! http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0604/01/ldt.0.html 5. $17 Billion dollars a year is spent for education for the American-born children of illegal aliens, known as anchor babies. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0604/01/ldt.01.html 6. $3 Million Dollars a DAY is spent to incarcerate illegal aliens. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0604/01/ldt.01.html 7. 30% percent of all Federal Prison inmates are illegal aliens. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0604/01/ldt.01.html 8. $90 Billion Dollars a year is spent on illegal aliens for Welfare & social services by the American taxpayers. http://premium.cnn.com/TRANSCIPTS/0610/29/ldt.01.html 9. $200 Billion Dollars a year in suppressed American wages are caused by the illegal aliens. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0604/01/ldt.01.html 10. The illegal aliens in the United States have a crime rate that's two and a half times that of white non-illegal aliens. In particular, their children, are going to make a huge additional crime problem in the US http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0606/12/ldt.01.html 11. During the year of 2005 there were 4 to 10 MILLION illegal aliens that crossed our Southern Border also, as many as 19,500 illegal aliens from Terrorist Countries. Millions of pounds of drugs, cocaine, meth, heroine and marijuana, crossed into the U. S from the Southern border. Homeland Security Report: http://tinyurl.com/t9sht 12. The National Policy Institute, "estimated that the total cost of mass deportation would be between $206 and $230 billion or an average cost of between $41 and $46 billion annually over a five year period." http://www.nationalpolicyinstitute.org/pdf/deportation.pdf 13. In 2006 illegal aliens sent home $45 BILLION in remittances back to their countries of origin. http://www.rense.com/general75/niht.htm 14. "The Dark Side of Illegal Immigration: Nearly One Million Sex Crimes Committed by Illegal Immigrants In The United States ". http://www.drdsk.com/articleshtml So using the LOWEST estimates, the annual cost OF ILLEGAL ALIENS is $338.3 BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR! So if deporting them costs between $206 and $230 BILLION DOLLARS, We'll be ahead after the 1st year!!! Please pass this post on. Taxpayers need to be very worried.

The Necessity of Thanksgiving


“Tomorrow being the day set apart by the Honorable Congress for public Thanksgiving and Praise; and duty calling us devoutly to express our grateful acknowledgements to God for the manifold blessings he has granted us, the General... earnestly exhorts, all officers and soldiers, whose absence is not indispensably necessary, to attend with reverence the solemnities of the day.” —George Washington (December 17, 1777)


"In this era of overblown political correctness, we often hear tales of Thanksgiving that stray far afield from the truth. Contemporary textbook narratives of the first American harvest celebration portray the Pilgrim colonists as having given thanks to their Indian neighbors for teaching them how to survive in a strange new world. This, of course, is in stark contrast to the historical record, in which the colonists gave thanks to God Almighty, the Provider of their blessings."

Dana Walsh and Melanie Morgan - dynamic duo




Check out the Dana Walsh info at www.Danoodle.com on the Election 08 page. Fearless Dana is running against Nancy Pelosi in SF, and deserves our support, and contributions! Go Dana! (I've also posted a Congressional District 08 map of SF on the Election 08 page to show the ridiculous gerrymandering by the Dems in order to save their bums, errrr seats.)

Dana's Nob Hill Republican Club hosted Melanie Morgan last Friday, Nov. 16, at the Waterfront Restaurant, SF (Republican-owned, incidentally). A check for $1200 was presented to Melanie's organization, Move America Forward. Melanie teared up, bless her heart! The gift obviously meant a lot to her. So I'm sending in my donation to her organization, MAF, today!

And I'm also sending a check to Dana Walsh for her Congressional campaign!

These are two dynamic, brave, ladies; they make me proud to be a Republican. Please support them any way you can.

Danoodle in Vegas


I just took a week's vacation in that cultural mecca - Las Vegas! It has been a few years since I was there, and what a change! The building going on there reminds me of what daughter wrote about Beiijing, China, after visiting there this past summer, that the air was totally polluted because of the enormous amount of construction going on for the Olympics. Well, the air in Las Vegas is not that polluted, but the cranes and construction worker-bees are certainly busy. And the traffic is at metropolitan city levels!

Las Vegas has a symphony and an art museum, which I did not check out. It's easy to catch a show or two on the Strip, and go casino-hopping (no, I don't gamble) to see the lush, and sometimes gawdy, interiors of the hotels and shopping areas. The weather was perfect at night (70), and hot during the day.

The number of very good restaurants is surprising, and one feels removed from the Strip atmosphere at many of them. The best view at night is atop THE Hotel (attached to Mandalay Bay).

Daughter joined hubby and me for a fast family vacation, although we hesitated to mention "Las Vegas" to our friends on East & West Coasts. The town was surprisingly pleasant.

Remembering Our Heroes




From Ron Nehring, Chairman, CA Republican Party:


Monday, Nov. 12. As we observe Veterans Day, we pause to remember the sacrifices our men and women in uniform have made while serving our nation. For more than two centuries, our 50 million veterans have fought to preserve our nation's liberty and democracy and the freedom of our citizens.


A special debt of gratitude is owed to the 1.5 million heroes who have made the ultimate sacrifice. We remember and honor them, while holding dear in our hearts the families they have left behind.


Our men and women in uniform have raised and kept safe a nation that it might bestow upon us the blessings of liberty sought out so many years ago by our founders. These heroes in uniform have led this nation to victory through the darkest of moments, when victory seemed beyond grasp. Today we pay a special tribute to those who have and continue to sacrifice, so that we as a nation can live in freedom.


May God bless the United States of America and look over our soldiers and their families.
