Who wants a green card?

Greencard Los Angeles producer Adrian Martinez is working on selling his new show, “Who Wants to Marry a U.S. Citizen?” to cable television. The trailer claims that “true love knows no borders,” and the disclaimer assures that the show’s producers do not give out green cards, noting “that’s the government’s job.”

    just another political ploy (probably backed by LaRaza) to thumb its nose at the U.S. and its LEGAL citizens.

    OK need I point out, by Federal law it is illegal to marry a U.S. citizen for the reason of gaining status of a U.S. citizen. The INS has a form and a interview to determine the intent that is so extensive. That perhaps if every couple wishing to marry had to go through, they may not be so many divorces.

    YEah, and that is why that 28 year old woman from Florida (sho hit every branch in the fall from the ugly tree) “married” over 50 men.

    The INS needs to beef this up just a bit. I really do not care what one has sex with or whom one marries as long as it is mutualy rewarding. HOwever, this type of “reality TV” is sickening.

    I think there will be an armed revolt. ALL these illegal alien supporters and the open borders crowd are going a bit too far with this in your face stuff.

    Some guy from Save Our States, an anti illegal alien group, was arrested for being a “terrorist”. An AMERICAN CITIZEN trying to support and enhance the soveriengty of the United sataes, a terrorist? Thinks this wacky are going to get ugly and quick.

    I know what side I am on, do you?

    I consider my American citizenship as about as valuable these days as one of those lousy “parting gifts” they used to give out on similar game shows.

    A large number of MY ancestors were at sea for more than a month on wooden ships to get here. They were Americans before America was born.

    NOW you wade the Rio Grande or get on a game show and you get citizenship.

    A better show would be “Black bags for the Barrios”

    Did you hear about the ToysRUs truck that was hijacked?

    Mexicans had stolen it to get birth certificates from the cabbage patch dolls.

    Funny, I’ve been working on a show too…take an average looking, middle-aged American man, fly him all over the world and introduce him to beautiful women from countries all over the world…sort of a “Revenge of the Bachelor”.This isn’t about green cards…it’s about finding real love in places our culture hasn’t spoiled yet.Consider:–The population of the Philippines is 70 percent female;–Women outnumber men in the Cali region of Colombia 11-to-one;–Wichita is one of only four places in the Western Hemisphere where men outnumber women (the other three have prisons).This is the REAL reason women from other countries seek American men…and I speak from experience.

    Our politicians are at it again, Stripping funding from Previous legislation.12-17-07

    Congress last night passed a giant new spending bill that undermines current plans for a U.S.-Mexico border fence, allowing the Homeland Security Department to build a single-tier barrier rather than the two-tier version that has worked in California….

    ….But the measures did not pass before House Republicans blasted the changes to the border fence……..The 2006 Secure Fence Act specifically called for “two layers of reinforced fencing” and listed five specific sections of border where it should be installed. The new spending bill removes the two-tier requirement and the list of locations.

    “Pulling back from the double-fence mandate is a prescription for failure that will only allow more smugglers, criminals and illegal aliens to enter the United States through our land border with Mexico,” said the California Republican, who also is running for his party’s presidential nomination.

    More details:

    Stripped-Favorably· No money for Mexican truckers to operate beyond current commercial zones in the United States

    Stripped-Unfortunately

    · The “no strings attached” $3 billion in funding promised for the Secure Fence Act after it was removed during the conference on the Defense Appropriations bill. Of the $1,225,000,000 appropriated, $650 million is held hostage by the DHS and Committees of Jurisdiction until a plan for the fence is approved. Furthermore, the fence funding would undermine language in the Secure Fence Act by granting more discretion to the Department of Homeland Security about how to spend the money and where to make infrastructure improvements.

    · The Kingston amendment requiring Federal government contractors to participate in the Basic Pilot (E-Verify) program.

    · The Tancredo amendment to prevent Federal Homeland Security funds from being distributed to state and local governments who aid and abet illegal immigration with so-called “sanctuary policies.”

    · The Capito amendment mandating that the Departments of Commerce, Justice, and State participate in the Basic Pilot (E-Verify) program.

    · The Hunter amendment prohibiting funds from being used to facilitate participation in the Security and Prosperity Partnership program or to create an international highway between Mexico and Canada.

    Retained

    · $575 million for the Secure Fence Act (without strings)

    · The Gingrey/Culberson language to prevent the Social security Administration from funding the Social Security totalization agreement with Mexico.

    · The Tancredo amendment to prevent State Department funds if visas are not refused to counties that deny or delay accepting aliens removed from the United States.

    · Language to prohibit housing assistance and mortgages for illegal aliens

    · Funding to expand ports of entry and purchase more border patrol vehicles

    · The Weldon amendment for background checks on illegal aliens

    · $410 million for the State Criminal Alien Assistance Program, including a new DHS mandate that the agency contact every prison, jail, and correctional facility in U.S. monthly to identify incarcerated and convicted aliens who are candidates for deportation and to start removal proceedings where ordered

    · $475 million for the US-VISIT entry-exit identification system.

    · $50 million in grants to help states comply with the REAL ID Act

    Unfortunately included

    · Iraqi refugee language to “recapture or carry forward” certain unused refugee visas.

    · Legal defense funding (legal services corp) to help illegal aliens plead their case before removal

    · Delay on Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI), which would require all travelers to and from Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean and Bermuda to present a passport to enter or re-enter the United States.
