Obama: The Problem of Illegal Immigration "Has been Solved”

At an annual event discussing ways to end human trafficking, President Barack Obama declared that the problem of illegal immigration into the U.S. "has been solved.” With no more than a few dozen illegals managing to get into the U.S. in recent months, Obama said that for all intents and purposes, his government had managed to put an end to illegal immigration, and with it, the problem of human trafficking.

Women's Media, Republican Donors, And Lefty Boycotts

Glenn "Instapundit" Reynolds has a suggestion in the New York Post on what rich Republican donors can do with their money:

For Dangerous Mentally Ill, Treatment Interventions Are Indicated

The horrific mass murders at a Connecticut elementary school has brought the usual shrieks from gun grabbers, while the unaddressed root problem appears to be a mental health issue not adequately treated. It’s not the first time.

Stakelbeck Reports on Mega Mosques and Non-Assimilation of Muslim Residents

This week’s edition of CBN’s Stakelbeck on Terror Show was particularly edifying, with an overview of Islam’s mega-mosque strategy to insinuate itself one neighborhood at a time, from Cologne to Brooklyn.

Radio Derb On Anti-white Triumphalism: Jamie Foxx, Charles Blow,And Harry Belafonte

John Derbyshire's Radio Derb is on the air [Transcript | MP3] the "Anti-white triumphalism" reproduced below is my favorite part, but the stuff about Generation Identitaire is pretty good:

Newtown, Gun Control, And The MSM's Continuing Ability To Shape The Narrative

A couple of times today, in the wake of the appalling school shootings in Newtown CT, I've found myself talking to politically-aware individuals who are genuinely surprised to hear that there have been several instances where mass killings have been stopped because private citizens intervened with their own, legal, guns.

How The Government Class Lives

Depending on whether or not you have the Jew Thing, and how allergic you are to neoconnery, you may find Daniel Greenfield's "Sultan Knish" blog unappetizing overall.

If so, you are missing an occasional gem like this one:How the Government Class Lives, December 1, 2012.

How Much Can You Trust International School Achievement Tests?

Commenter TH compares 2011 results on TIMSS / PERLS to 2009 results on PISA:

I calculated some correlations between the PISA 2009 (15-y/o's), TIMSS 2011 (8th grade), and PIRLS 2011 (10-y/o's). 

The correlation between PISA 2009 math and TIMSS 2011 math is 0.87 (n=26). 

In both studies, East Asians are at the top, white-majority countries at the middle, and others at the bottom. 

However, if you look only at white-majority countries, the correlation is 0.19 (n=13).

Montana's Citizen-Approved Immigration Legislation Is Attacked by Lawsuit

imageOne of the true bright spots in a disappointing election was the resounding success in Montana of a voter initiative to deny taxpayer-funded benefits to illegal aliens.

And, Legislative Referendum 121 won with a remarkable 80 percent of the citizens in support. The vote wasn’t even close. The win shows that heartland Americans are sick of illegal aliens picking the pockets of hardworking citizens.

UC Berkeley: Illegal Alien Students Get $1 Million in Aid

Certain generous rich persons and institutions of northern California think that illegal aliens attending an elite university deserve financial help. It’s sad to see the prominent Haas family drawn to such an unworthy cause, the promotion of lawbreaking. Their grants have leaned toward diversity do-goodery, although with worthwhile efforts like support of local parks. However, becoming an enabler of foreign lawbreakers is certainly a step beyond.

Northridge California Mass Murderer Was Not Deported

Congressman Ted Poe Presses His Bill to Deport Foreign Criminals

Unfortunately for public safety, the US Supreme Court ruled in Zadvydas v. Davis, 2001, that foreign criminals cannot be held indefinitely after their prison terms are completed if their home nations won’t accept them.

Hispanics Demand Amnesty from Obama (aka More Jobs Displacement of Citizens)

Hispanics have put aside polite pleadings for their holy grail, a mass amnesty for tens of millions to gain an even larger load of free stuff. Now they raza gang figures (wrongly) that Obama owes them for his recent re-election, and the vocalizations are sounding like threats. After all, he promised amnesty four years ago and it’s past time for him to pay up — or else.

In other words, What have you done for me lately?

Proposition Nation v. Preposition Nation

On the White House webpage regarding immigration and amnesty, we read President Obama version of the conventional propositional nation wisdom that emerged a decade or two back to justify de facto open borders:

Fixing the Immigration System for America’s 21st Century Economy 

"We are the first nation to be founded for the sake of an idea—the idea that each of us deserves the chance to shape our own destiny.

Stanley Fish: "Is It Good for the Jews?"

Researching my current Taki's column, I came upon the following 2007 column by New York Times columnist Stanley Fish, the prominent professor of literature. 

OK, OK, Obama Won, So Can We Please Turn Off The Feminist Noise Machine Until 2016?
