For decades now we have seen the Television Media manipulate the American People with agenda setting stories, half truths, rigged polls, extra time/praise for politicians they like, less time/ criticism for politicians they don’t like, ignoring stories against their agenda and so forth. From ABC,CBS,NBC, and now CNN, we have had complaining about Reagan, to the Tailwind scandal, to giving Bill Clinton a pass on China/Travel/Waco/Elian Gonzales/Prisoner Blood/Pardon/ etc. gate, to ignoring the growth of terrorism, to the National Guard Memos, and a whole host of other lies to the American Public. Now we are to be informed about the primary elections for 2008.
The primary elections in Iowa and New Hampshire indicate a total lack of informing the public by the media about voting records. An overwhealming number of Christians oppose amnesty for illegal immigrants. The majority of conservative Christians vote against illegal immigration on ballot initiatives. Yet in Iowa , many of those same Christians voted for a candidate who wanted to reward illegals by giving their children scholarships. This candidate also struck a deal to have a company build a 1.2 million dollar Consulate which at least $60,000 of tax money was spent on while the county prisons in the state were falling apart! If you don’t know who I’m talking about, you need to go to http://www.betterimmigration.com/ and similar websites if you plan on voting. On the Democrat side, the candidate with the least experience won the most votes. The records of Democrats are basically the same, yet it appears that their primaries are based on emotion as well.
New Hampshire was a different story. This state allows independents to vote and even allows someone who claims they will live in the state to vote! Perhaps someone could see if you can claim residence in Spanish. John McCain won the majority of votes in The Granite State winning most of the delegates. The same McCain who was part of the amnesty bill, campaign finance reform, the gang of 14, and several other anti-conservative actions pulled ahead by having a few ads and supporting the surge in that country that the media won’t mention. Meanwhile, the media orchestrated a “comeback” for Hillary Clinton complete with polls showing here behind in double digits, planted chauvinist hecklers, and praise for the convenient teary-eyed emotional moment. The reality is that it was a disaster that Hillary didn’t win by double digits in a northeastern state.
Let’s not forget about the state that best represents the Republicans in the primaries so far, Wyoming . Even though it had more delegates than New Hampshire , Wyoming probably didn’t receive 1/10th the media coverage of the more leftist states. The Republican candidate who has the most delegates and the most money right now won that state, but apparently the pundits didn’t notice Wyoming as they are claiming that guy will drop out.
You can add Wyoming to the “News we won’t report pile” which includes good news from Iraq, good news about the economy, the 25 American deaths a day caused by illegal immigrants, Christian persecution, and just about anything else the left doesn’t like. The people most responsible for the "News we don't report pile" are the editors in the east coast offices of the news agencies along with their parent companies. General Electric,which has been criticized for doing business with terrorist sponsoring nations owns NBC, while Disney owns ABC, CBS Corp. is a complicated merger. Turner Broadcasting owns CNN. If your not looking at voting records and going to websites like freerepublic.com, your giving your vote to a handful of lying, corrupt propagandist. Then there’s FoxNews, which has decided to propel the RINOs in the election for the sake of ratings. A “focus group” done after the S Carolina debates acknowledged that Thompson won but was then cohearsed by pollster Frank Luntz into claiming that winning the debate for the fourth state in the primary process was ‘too late”. None of the focus groups seem to care about voting records.
Unlike the media, we do have some good news. The alphabet media, along with CNN have been doing badly in the ratings. The less liberal but not conservative Fox News has been doing well in increasing viewers, but has taken some criticism from bloggers for rewarding candidates that look better on the TV instead of reporting voting records. Hopefully, the American voters will look past the PR stunts, the slick ads, the cohearsed focus groups, and other unimportant events and vote what the candidates. To get a record on gun rights, go to www.gunowners.org/pres08/, for a record on prolife issues, visit www.nrlpac.org/, and for a record on stopping illegal immigration,visit www.numbersusa.com/index. Please don't vote on behave of the lying media!

Great Debate & Arkansas Government neglects Prisons

Report: $5.7 Million Needed to Fix Pulaski County Jail
http://www.cwarkansas.com/news/local/story
The hope to fix the old Pulaski County jail this month is fading fast. An engineering report released Monday and obtained by FOX16 News shows the cost to repair the old jail is five times more than county leaders originally thought. In response to the report, one quorum court member feels taxpayers will be better off if the old jail is torn down given the latest cost estimates. Allen Kerr, District 3Justice of the Peace, says it is time to look for other solutions. The Garver Engineering report reveals conditions unfit for holding inmates and millions of dollars needed to fix it. Photos taken from the report of the old Pulaski County jail taken show numerous problems with leaky roofs, extensive mold and asbestos, even roach infestation. "The information we got today is quite shocking,” Kerr says. “It's about five times what we thought it was to start with." The Garver study suggests $5,751,920 is needed to fix the old jail and house inmates again. Kerr doesn't see that happening and says the jail should not have been allowed to decline to its present state.
“Pure and simple it's just neglect,” Kerr says. “The county has let this building go for such a long time." Last October, Sheriff Doc Holladay and Treasurer Debra Buckner started the First Step Program soliciting public donations to raise a little more than $100,000, the amount believed enough to get the jail ready to accept prisoners again. Checking the treasurer website on Monday, $18,863 toward the goal had been raised. Kerr says that’s no reason to stop contributing. "Nothing is a waste,” Kerr says. It just means our challenge is much bigger than what we thought it was." Kerr still supports a temporary steel building to get more inmates in sooner but says with the release of this report, he's open to anything.
"I had prepared myself in the back of my mind for maybe $3 million dollars, but I never thought they would come up with almost $6 million dollars," Kerr says. "It's another setback, it's a financial setback, but we're going to figure out a way to get around it." Buckner says no matter how much the repair cost estimate is, all the money donated to the First Step program will still go to fixing the jail or to help build a new facility.

The anti-American Arkansas Times just posted a story about how the Pulaski Government $880,000 went toward the prison system. OOPS! that went toward putting up lights on The Big Dam Bridge (a walkway that does virtually nothing for Arkansas)! We could use $50,000 from the Little Rock Economic Development Fund, but that went toward the Mexican Consulate thanks to the Little Rock government. We could use $10,000 from the Governor's Emergency Fund, but that went toward the Mexican Consulate thanks to Presidential Candidate Mike Huckabee.
Speaking of Huckabee, maybe he could negotiate Bruce Barrow to repair the jail or build a new one? Instead, Mike had Bruce Barrow build a $1,2000,000 Consulate for Mexico. We could request $27,000,000 from the Federal Government to build several new prisons, pay corrections officers, and train our police on 287G to enforce immigration law, but we decided to look for the ivory billed woodpecker instead.
While most of the screwups I mentioned are acts of stupidity of the current government of Arkansas, the years of neglect of the Pulaski County Prison can also be credited to a Presidential Candidate who was Governor of the State for several years.

Public speaks out at immigration hearing Jan 5th
Panel’s goal is to make recommendations for new legislative session
The Associated Press HUNTSVILLE, AL (leftist sympathy for illegals alert)
More than 270 people packed a lively public hearing on illegal immigration that was interrupted when some crowd members taunted a Hispanic speaker.At one point a police officer briefly stopped the meeting Thursday night to calm the audience. It was the second public hearing of the Joint Interim Patriotic Immigration Commission, a 21-member panel created last year by the Legislature after lawmakers were unable to pass bills dealing with illegal immigration.The commission’s goal is to make policy recommendations on illegal immigration for the 2008 legislative session. It plans to submit a report to the Legislature three legislative days after the session begins Feb. 5. The commission also plans public hearings Jan. 10 in Hoover and Jan. 17 in Mobile.At Thursday’s meeting, speakers complained about the cost of illegal immigration to taxpayers for health care and social services, along with the cost or danger to motorists struck by illegal immigrants who don’t have drivers licenses and insurance. Several speakers suggested laws that would prevent illegal immigrants from getting public assistance, health care and education. But when it came time for Hispanic speakers to give the other side, some in the audience shouted taunts and did not want to listen. Rosa Toussaint Ortiz, raised in Puerto Rico but a Huntsville resident since 1985, suggested that instead of studying illegal immigration, the state should create a panel to probe domestic violence, or homelessness, or why so few blacks are involved in local politics.“Where are the African Americans?” she asked repeatedly, pointing at the largely white and middle-aged audience. At that point, a police officer had to walk into the center of the hall to stop the public hearing and calm the crowd. As she spoke, some in the audience booed and jeered and a few said, “It’s time to go.” But others demanded that Ortiz be heard.
When the audience quieted down enough for her to speak, Ortiz said, “Fear is driving much of the conversation over immigration.” Most speakers said the state needs to do more to curtail illegal immigration and to stop businesses from hiring undocumented workers.“Surely we still have it in us to recognize this country was bled for, and we came here legally,” said Don Duffey, a business owner who requires all employees speak English. Phil Goodale, chapter leader of the North Alabama Minutemen, linked illegal immigration to tuberculosis and drugs in public schools. “We need to end public assistance period for any undocumented people.” Ed Kiker, an Army veteran from Madison, argued that the current system depresses wages for all workers.“I really have to point my finger at the employers. If they were not employing illegals, there wouldn’t be any,” Kiker said. Two hours into the public hearing, Jose Guerrero of Athens became one of the few Hispanic speaker to approach the microphone. He told the audience he felt like a goldfish in a bowl of piranha.Guerrero, who was born in the U.S., praised the United States and asked of the panel only one thing: “Tell the governor there are Hispanic citizens out there, too.”

Report: Bus Driver On Phone, Used Illegal Drugs Before Fatal Crash (& Wyoming Results)
The results of the Wyoming Primaries are here.; http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1949067/posts
________________________________________________________

The Associated Press
LITTLE ROCK — The driver who crashed a passenger bus and killed four people had a cellular phone to his ear and illegal drugs in his possession when he lost control of the vehicle, according to a state police investigative report. Felix Badillo Tapia, 28, told troopers in a written statement he got something caught in his throat after taking a sip of soda and “just saw a black dot” before waking up on the floor after the crash along Interstate 40 near Forrest City in east Arkansas. But the police report shows other passengers on the Tornado Bus Co. trip from Chicago to Dallas say Tapia spoke constantly on the phone and did not have a required relief driver with him. Tapia faces four negligent homicide charges from the November crash. If convicted, Tapia could face up to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine for each count. On Nov. 25, the Tornado bus crossed the interstate median, colliding with a pickup and a tractor-trailer. Three people on the bus, as well as the driver of the pickup, were killed. More than 20 others suffered injuries.
The report lists finding a drug called “Iprazil” in Tapia’s possession. Agents with the Drug Enforcement Agency could not immediately identify the drug Friday, but Prosecutor Fletcher Long said Tapia tested positive for amphetamines after the crash. State police spokesman Bill Sadler referred questions about the drug to the Arkansas Highway Police. “We found it in his (Tapia’s) possession when we were trying to find paperwork and all that stuff,” said Arkansas Highway Police Capt. Paul Claunch. “We listed it on the driver-vehicle inspection report based on what state police told us as being in possession of a controlled substance.” Aside from illegal drugs, the report lists a number of other problems highway police found with the bus. Investigators say someone falsified reports in the bus’ log book, listing incomplete mileage and hours, as well as a relief driver that wasn’t on board. During an interview with troopers, Tapia said he was supposed to pick up a relief driver in Earle when he stopped for gas, but no one was there.
A transcript of the interview says troopers showed Tapia his log book and asked about the relief driver. Troopers say Tapia put down the name of a friend “because he knew him.” When asked if the company told him to write down a fake name, Tapia acted like he did not know what the investigator was saying. At the beginning of the interview, investigators say lawyers representing Tornado and Tapia said the driver would need a translator because he didn’t speak English. When told it was illegal for a commercial bus driver not to speak and read English sufficiently, the report shows company officials and Tapia “immediately” said he could do both. Officers also reported finding no proof of insurance or registration in the bus after the crash. Investigators say Tapia told them he had worked for Tornado for about seven years, though he was previously fired then rehired. Texas police records show he received a series of traffic citations in the past six years, including speeding tickets and driving a commercial vehicle with defective brakes. Prosecutors say Tapia remains free after posting $50,000 bond Thursday. A number registered to Tapia in Brownsville, Texas, went unanswered Friday afternoon. His attorney, Tonya Alexander, could not be reached. Tornado Bus, based in Dallas, caters primarily to Hispanic passengers, advertising its routes to Mexico. Last month, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration ordered the bus company to cease operations because it is an “imminent hazard to public safety.” The carrier has been the target of four reviews since 2001.
I missed this story when it happened. The police report just posted today. Here's the website for this illegal immigrant transport company. Let's review a few amazing facts about this tragedy.
1. This company was order to cease operation over a month ago. Why is this company still in operation with no arrest other than Tapia?
2. How does a bus driver with a drug habit post $50,000 in bond and why was bond even allowed for a guy who could easily go to Mexico?
3. What is the legal status of Tapia, the passengers?
4. Has immigration ever raided this company?
5. How many other busing companies go to Mexico?
6. Tapia pretended not to speak English during the investigation Did he think he would be let go had he only been caught for speeding? Is that standard policy?
7. The leftist that run the TV media is ignoring issues such as immigration in order to allow RINOs to win the Republican Nomination (except for FoxNews which is allowing RINOS to win the Rep. Nomination for ratings). Will the deaths of four people by a company that appears to support illegal immigration bring this issue up? Or will the media ignore this issue like the Wyoming Primary Election that occured Saturday Jan 5th?

Huckabee did even better than expected. While Huckabee ran a very skilled campaign in Iowa, part of the reason for Huckabee's success in Iowa is the fact that illegal immigration has not had a major impact on the state (not yet). Romney, who has a lot better immigration record lost but has the resources to stay in the race. Thompson came in 3rd despite the media's cowardly attack on Thompson by reporting a politico.com story and boosting McCamnesty. On Saturday Jan 5th, Wyoming will have it's primary for it's 14 delegates. Due to it's small delegate size and the fact that it is a conservative state, the media will boycott Wyoming and report on the debate for New Hampshire's 12 delegates next Tuesday. Arkansas has 34. You can go to this link at Wikipedia for the delegate info:
