While making my rounds the other day on the job, I noticed that the bank located inside the Wal-Mart I was servicing had a sign in front of it. It seems First Convenience Bank is now accepting Mexican consular matricula cards as valid ID for opening accounts and transacting business.

So, banks which routinely reject you and I for credit now accept cards which even the FBI has warned is extremely vulnerable to fraud and forgery and whose use virtually guarantees tha the holder is a criminal guilty of violating the laws of the United States.

American business has sold us out, my fellow Texans. Corporate greed has overridden citizenship.

During my run into Houston last week, I passed a number of those large Dr. Pepper billboards -- you know, the one talking about 23 flavors and enjoying it slowly?  Every single one of the billboards I saw was in Spanish -- a language I happen to read moderetely well. The wife and I have been determined Dr. Pepper drinkers for years ...but no more.

I love beer. Guess who helps fund all those "pro-amnesty" rallies around the country, rallies which have been organized by Mexican communist, separatist and racist groups like La Raza, MeCHA and Nation of Aztlan? Miller Brewing Co.

I have been a faithful State Farm Insurance customer since I was 16 -- that's like 34 years' worth of money I've paid for insurance I've only used once. Apparently they don;t like my money any more, since they're now actively recruiting illegal aliens -- who can't even get a driver's license! -- as customers.

I was offered a donut the other day and although I was famished, I refused it. It came from Shipley's -- that's the company which got rid of its American workers and hired illegal aliens. Lawrence W. Shipley III pleaded guilty in Houston to a misdemeanor charge of continuing to employ unauthorized workers and was placed on probation. Shipley Do-Nuts pleaded guilty to a felony charge of knowingly hiring illegal immigrants and must forfeit $1.3 million (I noticed that story wasn't a big news item here, I wonder why?).

I applied for a Bank of America Visa card a few years back. They rejected me. Now they're targeting their marketing specifically to illegal aliens. They might ought to change the name of the bank, it seems to me.

There are almost as many Spanish-language TV and radio stations in Houston now as there are those which broadcast in Texas English. I can't stand the music and can only understand part of what the DJs are saying, but I can fully understand the advertising and I'm fully aware that many of the same advertisers who fund my favorite English-language shows are also helping to fund the tidal wave of illegal immigrants who are overwhelming my culture.

The list of greedy corporations who are selling out their country is legion, and it grows every day. Pepsi, Coca-Cola, Washington Mutual, Lowe's, Allstate ... they're all in on it.

Most of these corporations have this idea that helping the Mexicans and others who are breaking American laws is simply a way to make more money. They don't seem to understand what's going to happen when the illegals become numerous enough to take over -- which, since neither Obama nor McCain supports regulating our borders, isn't going to be much longer. These corporations do not understand that civil war WILL happen -- and that they will lose billions of dollars when that happens.

There are some people who are trying to fight back. They are reporting those who hire illegal aliens at WeHireAliens.com and they're organizing boycotts of these traitor corporations at AmericaFirstBoycott.com. I urge everyone to visit those sites and support them.

Immigration made our country great, and like everyone else I welcome new LEGAL immigrants from any land. But when we allow people to openly ignore or break our laws and then reward them, the United States we revered, fought for and helped to build will collapse upon itself.

You are my friend--an astute blogger--
& SO right on all your comments.
I understand your reason, but I disagree with one.
We do not need to "welcome MORE legal immigrants!
We are overun with our own impoverished that we need to intergrate into our system--
We have MILLIONS of illegals here to deal with--
We have MILLIONS of "new" legal immigrants we need to intergrate into our system--
Our economy is suffering already!
ANY system will accommodate just so much--forcing it to accept more, sometimes is not smart, maybe!

These people are taking over the country, & while our legislators have ignored the problem, there will come a time when they will wish they had addressed it while they had the chance--perhaps!

We think alike, but alas--our voices are not heard by those that count!

Illegal immigration is only a problem to us, the American citizen that is not aware that immigration is moving right on schedule as far as our government is concerned.Our government is moving towards the combining of Canada ,America and Mexico into one continant under one government and using the Euro as its money.Thats why we can't figure out why it is so difficult to get government to respond to a problem that has such an obvious solution.....enforce the law.

And because both parties have something to gain from it, you won't see anything change. I noticed that neither candidate addressed illegal immigration in their acceptance speeches.

Bayou, employers are fined $2,500 per illegal if caught hiring them. Many employers are refusing to hire them any longer as the fines will put them out of business. You may not hear it much, but ICE is making headway. When businesses start failing when Americans stop using them, they will turn around if they want to stay in business. Our pocketbooks speaks loud volumes when their revenues start depleting. Do not give up hope, it is up to us to make it work. How do you hurt them - always in the pocketbook and revenues. California is the only state that has the highest stolen credit card use in the country. I know, I am administrator for Mastercard. Most thefts are in California where many illegals are hidden. Both parties do not address this issue as well as our borders, culture and language. But whoever is elected if this issues are not addressed during their administration, we will all be knocking on their door to demand an answer.

Bayou--A question for you?

Who do you plan to vote for?

Who do you think is the best?

Just curious, as I think you know how I feel!

ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS KEEP COMING BECAUSE THEY KNOW SOMEONE WILL HIRE THEM WHEN THEY ARRIVE B.V. AMERICAN OWNED COMPANIES TURN AROUND TO SEE WHO IS WATCHING THEM & HIRE AS MANY AS THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH . HELLO : SHIPLEY'S , ALMOST ALL THE HOME BUILDERS , RESTAURANTS ETC. ! THEY ALL DO IT . NONE OF THOSE JOBS PAY AMERICAN CITIZENS LIVING WAGES SIR. WHAT ARE THEY SUPPOSE TO DO SHUT THEIR DOORS DUE TO LABOR SHORTAGE ? NO ONE IN THIS GOVERNMENT HAS BEEN ABLE TO COME UP WITH A SOLUTION TO THIS GROWING PROBLEM YET ! ONE NEED ONLY TO OPEN THEIR EYES & PEEK IN THE BACK OF THE RESTAURANT KITCHENS YOU FREQUENT , CONSTRUCTION SITES , CARWASHES ETC. TO SEE WHO IS DOING ALL THE WORK : ALMOST ALL NON CITIZENS . WHAT TO DO ? WHAT TO DO ? SEE WHAT TURNING YOUR EYES AWAY FROM SOMETHING & NOT DOING THE RIGHT THING CAN GET YOU ?...

Yahya, I *AM* doing something about it even if the politicians won't. As my post points out, I'm boycotting the companies which employ, cater to or support those who are breaking our law. And I will not vote for ANY politician who doesn't make ENFORCING THE LAW a top top priority -- so to answer torchbearer's question, I will either vote Libertarian for Bob Barr or possibly write-in Alan Keyes. Ron Paul had my vote until his stuck his foot in his mouth on Iraq.

If the ticket were Palin-McCain instead of the other way around, I might consider going Republican; she hasn't been posed the question yet, but I sense Spitfire Sarah wouldn't hesitate to do what is right.

acc5star, we have a two-pronged problem and it needs a two-pronged solution. One, we have to stop the demand for illegal aliens and two, we have to eliminate the root cause of them heading north inthe first place.
That $2500 fine isn't enough -- it's not putting anyone other than small construction companies out of business; we can see that simply from the bust-up of Shipley's, they pay the fine and keep right on going. We need a law like that in Arizona -- revoke their business license, imprisonment instead of fines for the employers. THAT will stop the employers' side of this.
The other part of the issue is that the government of Mexico is complicit in this invasion with the idea that it will "reconquer" the southwest without a shot fired. It's called the "Reconquista," it's been a formal program of the government of Mexico since 1973 and we need to wise up to that.
Line the border with Marines, give them clear and sane rules of engagement and you'll stop seeing the Mexican Army escorting illegals and drugs across the border.

baouvixen,
Thank you for your opinion!

In my opinion, ICE is directing their attention to the "obvious illegal, non-English speaking individuals" working at "known hiring facilities"--
Where this is good--& possibly the only viable approach, it doesn't address the MAIN concern!

I lived near a illegal infested community, where a family comes here--
Sells Mexican statues, mows lawns, sometimes lives in multi-housing homes, propogates like rabbits, gets on welfare, gets credit cards, bogus ID's, buys a new car, all the amenities the middle class has, gets a Lone Star government debit card, invites all their relatives in Mexico to come here, & get their (assumed citizen) children jobs at local businesses. They just blend into the community, & soon are driving new cars--living better than their legal counterparts who are supporting this B.S.!
Everyone accepts them, & they thrive off the middle class who is paying their way! Soon their children are "assumed" American citizens, & we have 100 million people taking the side of "illegals"-?
THIS IS THE BIGGEST PROBLEM!

You "KNOW" the routine--everyone does--?
