Action needed in your district!Now that the political mood has shifted our way, it's time for us to come out swinging!

A timely article from http://www.numbersusa.com/ about faxes to send to your House and Senate members because of the election of Scott Brown as described in this post about the election in Massachusettes, and this about in-state tuition for illegals in Nebraska and Texas. For more interesting stories like this click here to follow this blog.

Now that the political mood has shifted our way, it's time for us to come out swinging!
Time for Congress, including your Rep. , to support our Top Five Bills
Press to Donate Now
Jim here, writing with several Action Steps you can take today to take advantage of our new opportunities and bring immigration under control.
Remember my prediction a few months ago? I said health care benefits for illegal aliens would be kept out of any health care bill.
Time is proving me right! After a earth-shaking election in Massachusetts, Congress has apparently gotten the message. No health care bill will include illegal aliens.


Why Senator-Elect Scott Brown Gives Us an Opportunity
Last Tuesday, the come-from-behind, impossibly-outgunned, pro-enforcement Scott Brown won a special election and takes the seat of the late Sen. Kennedy, champion of high immigration. As you'll recall, Kennedy wanted to make practically every illegal alien a U.S. citizen! Kennedy was the person most responsible for quadrupling immigration levels. I'm guessing Massachusetts had enough of that.
Turns out Scott Brown agrees with many NumbersUSA positions! He wants E-Verify, interior enforcement, strong border controls--and opposes amnesty!
The winds of change are finally blowing our direction. There's change in the air. Can't you feel it? Don't you feel energized and more hopeful? I know I do!
Bri, this is the time to pour gasoline on the fire! If you've never had a chance to donate to NumbersUSA, this would be a great time to invest. Just $10 would really help us push Congress the right direction!
Our opponents in the Open Borders coalition are very, very depressed in the aftermath of the Massachusetts special election. Any kind of health care bill that would cover illegal aliens is dead. And I predict that Amnesty for Illegal Aliens is now dead for this Congress. (Yes, we'll be watching every minute, but this is my prediction now.) The other side has simply lost heart!
Press to Donate Now
Ready for some Good Legislation? Here are Several Actions You Can Take TODAY To Control Immigration
It's time to make sure every Member of Congress co-sponsors the Five Great Immigration-Reduction Bills that have been introduced in the House of Representatives.
Bad News. Your House Member, so far has not co-sponsored two very important immigration-reduction bills.
The first bill is the SAVE Act, which would make the E-Verify employment verification system mandatory for every employer.
The second bill is H.R. 1868, which would finally put an end to "birthright citizenship" for illegal aliens. Under this bill, children born in this country to illegal aliens would no longer be granted automatic U.S. citizenship.
Again, your Rep. has not co-sponsored either of these bills as of yet.
Send this fax demanding that co-sponsor both the SAVE Act and H.R. 1868 (to eliminate Birthright Citizenship for illegal aliens). It's critical that we hold your Rep. accountable.
Next, go to your NumbersUSA Action Board to see where your Rep. stands on the other three top immigration-reduction bills. Send all the faxes we suggest there. You will find several new things to do on the board--so look right now.
Obviously we are at the crossroads of opportunity. Please make a donation today to help us take advantage of our new opportunities. $25 would help us a lot just now as we labor to deliver 500,000 faxes this month alone.
Bri, you stuck with us during the hardest time, when we were always on the defensive. Now that the political winds are shifting our direction, let's redouble our efforts, and then redouble them again!

KEEP THE FAITH, AND NEVER GIVE UP!

Earth Day's Founder

A very interesting article to read and forward to everyone you can this "Earth Day" (H/t http://www.examiner.com)

Earth Day founder murdered his girlfriend

April 21
ShareThis Feed

Maybe long-time Earth Day advocate Ira Einhorn took the whole “recycling” thing a little too far when he “composted” his girlfriend’s remains in a trunk in his closet...Back in 1970, Earth Day was a grassroots hippie event. The organizers chose April 22 – which just “happens” to be the birthday of their Soviet Communist hero, Lenin:“One of the self-identified ‘founders’ of Earth Day, Bay Area activist John McConnell, has written that in 1969 he proposed to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors a new holiday to be called Earth Day on the first day of spring, the Equinox, around March 21. But, he writes, in 1970 local anti-Vietnam War and Environmental Teach-in activists 'who were planning a one-time event for April 22, also decided to call their event Earth Day.'“And what was this unnamed ‘one-time event’ in 1970? It was the 100th birthday celebration for Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, known to history as Lenin...”(Amusingly, the Soviets marked Lenin’s 100th birthday with – a massive tree planting in Siberia. The trees spell out a congratulatory message to the late dictator when seen from above. How “green” of them! Alas, the Soviets normally weren’t so environmentally savvy; their factories typically expelled exponentially more pollution than those in the West, but few Leftists like to dwell on that “inconvenient truth. )That very first Earth Day in Philadelphia, Ira Einhorn -- local leftwing activist and self-promoting gadfly, a would-be Abbie Hoffman -- served as the event’s Master of Ceremonies.
Today, Earth Day has been embraced by governments and corporations. Amazon.com is offering Earth Day specials; school kids are compelled to celebrate it instead of Christmas. But founding organizer Ira Einhorn’s name is strangely absent from all the official Earth Day literature these days. It’s no wonder: the one-time up and coming counterculture superstar later killed his girlfriend and fled abroad to escape justice.
Ken Anderson explains:“After bludgeoning his girlfriend of five years to death, fracturing her skull in a dozen places, Ira stuffed her body into a trunk, which he packed into a closet where it remained until discovered by the police nearly two years later.”Incredibly, Ira Einhorn isn’t the only leftwing activist who founded a holiday and was convicted of committing an act of violence against a woman. As I wrote here last December, the fake holiday Kwanzaa sprang from the fevered imagination of an African-American radical who’d served jail time for torturing one of his female comrades.None of this should shock even the most casual student of the Left.
As documented time and again, their vaunted idealism is just a thin, publically acceptable veneer, barely concealing their misogyny, racism, misanthropy and hostility to any facts that contradict their beloved theories or people who dare to disagree with their viewpoints.
Ira Einhorn just took his hypocrisy, sense of superiority and entitlement a little farther than the average Leftist. And he got caught.
