Common Sense on Voter ID in Georgia

By |2023-05-20T09:41:08-04:00September 7th, 2007|

The second shoe has dropped in Georgia. A year ago, there were temporary injunctions in place in both state and federal courts against the new Voter ID Law in that state. The law had been modified in response to a prior ruling in the federal court. The revised law allowed any resident of Georgia who did not already have a drivers license, to obtain for free a photo ID like those used by people who do not, or cannot, get a drivers license.

Earlier this year, an appeal of a state judge’s injunction against the same law was decided in the Georgia Supreme […]

ACLU and US Unions Protect Illegal Aliens' Employment

By |2023-05-20T09:41:09-04:00September 7th, 2007|

It is well-known that illegal aliens often use false Social Security numbers in seeking employment in the US. Research has shown that in some instances, hundreds of illegals are using the same number, often taken from a real and employed American. To deal with this, Homeland Security adopted a new regulation requiring employers to take action when notified that an employee had an apparently false Social Security number.

The ACLU and the AFL-CIO claimed that this would be used as “an excuse” for employers to fire employees. But the law allows the employee 90 days to correct the problem before they would be […]

Peter Ferrara: Healthcare Solutions

The promises made by our current Federal entitlement programs would require Federal taxes and spending to double by 2040 as a percent of gross domestic product. The Democrat response: Add new entitlements. Congressional Democrats are moving to double Federal spending on the State Children's Health Insurance program (SCHIP), quite explicitly on their way to the biggest mega-entitlement of all, national health insurance.

Time To Block Grant Medicaid, SCHIP

Here’s my latest article at Forbes:

The promises made by our current Federal entitlement programs would require Federal taxes and spending to double by 2040 as a percent of gross domestic product. The Democrat response: Add new entitlements. Congressional Democrats are moving to double Federal spending on the State Children’s Health Insurance program (SCHIP), quite explicitly on their way to the biggest mega-entitlement of all, national health insurance.

Republicans need to go on offense with positive entitlement reforms, and take their case to the people. Does America really want to double or even triple Federal taxes relative to GDP?

Republicans should propose to […]

John Armor: Using Courts as a Weapon against America

By |2023-05-20T09:41:11-04:00August 29th, 2007|

The supposedly anti-war group, A.N.S.W.E.R, has had the chutzpah to sue the District of Columbia for fining it for defacing city property with its posters. The group is claiming discrimination. The honesty of its claim can be gauged from the fact that one of its primary leaders is Ramsey Clark, the lawyer who claimed that Saddam Hussein was innocent, and being discriminated against.

Attorney General of New Jersey Fronts for the ACLU

By |2023-05-20T09:41:12-04:00August 29th, 2007|

The Attorney General of New Jersey has joined with the US Attorney for that state, to tell the Mayor of Morristown that his police should not check the immigration status of most of the people they question and arrest. They did this despite the fact that the bodies are not yet cold in the ground from the assassination of three people in that state by an illegal immigrant who could have and should have been either in jail or thrown out of the US at the time he (according to witnesses) did the killings.

Gonzales is Gone but Dems Should Be Careful What They Ask For

Here’s my latest Op-Ed, published yesterday at Human Events Online:

Gonzales is Gone but Dems Should Be Careful They Ask For

Score another one for the politics of personal destruction. Democrats have managed to run out of town one of President Bush’s longest serving aides from Texas — Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.’ But they may want to put the champagne glasses down because this resignation may end up for the Democrats being a case of “be careful what you ask for.”

For months the Democrats have been clamoring for Gonzales’ resignation. And for months he and the White House […]

Using Courts as a Weapon against America

By |2023-05-20T09:41:14-04:00August 27th, 2007|

The supposedly anti-war organization, A.N.S.W.E.R., has just filed suit against the District of Columbia for fines imposed on the organization for defacing public property with its rally signs. Anyone who has traveled at all in D.C. is aware of the A.N.S.W.E.R signs, since they are plastered on light boxes and light poles, especially in the downtown area. The D.C. Department of Public Works has imposed fines in excess of $10,000.

The organization claims that its signs are posted with “a water-soluble glue that is easily removed.” The fact that some of this group’s signs from rallies years ago are still tenaciously clinging to […]

Attorney General of New Jersey Fronts for the ACLU

By |2023-05-20T09:41:15-04:00August 27th, 2007|

The Attorney General of New Jersey has done the work of the ACLU in telling the Mayor of Morristown that his police should not check the immigration status of people pulled over for traffic stops or minor crimes. Mayor Donald Cresitello first proposed that in a letter to US Attorney Christopher Christie.

The US Attorney’s reply claimed that this plan “directly contradicted” plans by the Attorney General of New Jersey, Anne Milgram, to check the immigration status of people charged with serious crimes or drunk driving. The US Attorney also wrote that checking status for less serious crimes is “something our office thinks […]
