Freedom, I believe you have nailed the strategy of winning elections for some politicians, and is not limited to a specific party or level of government. An example of the “block vote” is an estimated 7 million “citizens” from the Muslim community working together to get George and Jeb Bush elected.

The “block vote” constituents are well organized and strategically united in their initiatives such as repealing the Department of Justices use of undisclosed evidence against Middle Eastern terrorist in deportation proceedings. Some say this is a vital part of counterterrorism efforts.

To maintain a fare and balanced political process that accurately reflects the diversity of all American culture it is seemingly more critical than ever to educate the public and get out the vote.

Those are the incumbents that need to go!

Or is it weak leadership that will allow us to fall on the sword of political correctness? And if so, is that the type of leadership we should continue to support? The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

Such sentiments are why it is so difficult to remove mediocre or worse incumbents of either party.

All the more reason to keep unfit candidates like Gill out of office in the first place, so we don’t have this issue.

Dont throw people out of office. you regret it in the long run. it is about committees they sit on. not who they are or what great speechmakers they are. or if they tell you what you want to hear about immigration. they cannot effect change anyways

Politicians talk a lot and Faisal Gill is no exception; I think it’s about time for this “Delegate wannabe” to set the record straight, in no uncertain terms, on a lot of issues. Thus far, he’s just been a “I knew nothing about it” kind of guy. What would you expect him to say? I’d say he’s “meat for Paul Nichols,” but Paul Nichols is a nice guy….too nice, when it comes to mercy on Faisal Gill! Oh, and let’s not forget those principle-less “Gill supporting” Republican elected leaders either.

Or maybe Bolling DOESN’T CARE about Gill’s past as the chief lobbyist for the imprisoned Abdurahman Alamoudi’s American Muslim Council.

Either way, somebody who knows Bolling should speak to him immediately about Gill before Bolling causes himself more self-damage through Bolling’s troubling association with Asim Ghafoor, Gill and Gallinger, and the Sapentia LLC.

Virginia’s children will not sleep more safely in their beds because Bolling pleads ignorance of the true facts of this matter and instead wants to send Terror Lobbyist #1 Faisal Gill to Richmond.

It impacts the 51st district directly in many important ways. The 911 plotters lived just twenty miles from here. The same mosque that Mohammad Atta prayed at is still going strong in Falls Church. Now there are possible links to the recent UK bombing and Airport fire in the US.

The FBI is questioning several doctors in Ohio and the Muslims are refusing to Cooperate with the FBI and are using lawyers to answer simple questions.

Since Faisal worked for a group that advised Muslims not to talk to law enforcement, we need to ask Faisal does he endorse that policy?

Doesn’t surprise me. It’s all about quantity and not quality. You have two choices: You can hire someone cheap and unqualified who will screw the job up and take longer, and maybe you think you got a “good deal” because you got, say, 40 hours of work out of him on that one job. This is the “grunt work” approach. Working harder, not smarter.

(Regarding “hard workers”: Work is always hard when you don’t know what you’re doing. It’s quite easy when you do).

Choice #2 is to hire someone who costs more but is qualified and will the same amount of work in fewer hours, because they didn’t make a bunch of mistakes while doing it. Also known as working smarter, not harder.

I’ve seen a variant of the sort of thinking that someone who chooses #1 above. This is the customer who gets mad when someone (a computer tech, electrician, automotive tech, etc). solves a problem for them in a short amount of time (say 20 minutes) but charges them for a full hour. This sort of customer would actually, believe it or not, think they got their money’s worth if the repairperson actually spent the full hour fixing the problem–as might be the case if the repair person is not qualified.

Let me ask–if I, as a repairperson, computer tech, electrician, whatever–am skilled enough to fix your problem in 20 minutes compared to some hack who would take an hour, shouldn’t I get the same amount of money for my work? The customer got the same results for the same money–better actually, because I fixed it 40 minutes sooner. That’s 40 minutes their equipment wasn’t down, 40 minutes they didn’t need to stand around watching me.

But no. Perversely, they feel they’ve gotten a better deal when the job takes longer because someone who is unskilled is doing it.

I started becoming aware of this years ago when I had a job building and installing internet servers. I was MUCH quicker and MORE efficient than the other guy whom I replaced. I would get each server built and online in an hour or less–the other guy took at least 3-4 hours because, surprise surprise, he wasn’t as skilled at the job.

Because I was so much quicker at getting the servers built and online, there were days where I simply ran out of work to do–there were no more servers to put online, or the hardware was not on stock, etc. This resulted in the boss complaining that I wasn’t busy, that I was sitting around doing nothing, etc. I don’t think he ever complained about the 3-4 day backlog of work from the other guy–perhaps he felt he was getting his money’s worth out of the other guy since he was always “working hard”. (As I said, it’s “hard work” when you don’t know what you’re doing).

So those are my experiences. I guess the question is, you want “hard work” or “smart work”? I do “smart work”. I’ll leave the “hard work” to unskilled hacks.

This individual is originally from Texas, where he had a small carpentry company and had a number of illegal aliens from Mexico working for him (Texas, like California, has had the situation a lot longer than we have). Aside from the reason for that, he told me that he often tried to convince them to go back and do the immigration process legally. What he was told in response is really interesting, and makes a great deal of sense.

He was told by them that it was virtually impossible to afford the bribes to the MEXICAN OFFICIALS necessary to go through the legal immigration process (it was not time on waiting list, it was the process of getting on the waiting list in the first place). As I said, not in the least surprising, but not something that would have occurred to me.

It would seem that our government’s recent overtures to the Mexican government to explore immigration reform jointly is not just a step in the right direction, but absolutely necessary for reform to do any good. This, by the way, is one reason why it is MANDATORY for us to send those illegal aliens back…THAT might be the only incentive for the Mexican government to clean its own house. They won’t want to lose their primary source of income (and I don’t mean the bribes!).

I got a very nice letter two days ago from Congressman Wolf. It states that he sent a letter to the Senate asking them not to go through with the amnesty bill. He also said that he will never vote on any bill that supports amnesty.

They have to hire illegal aliens to do what has typically been thought of as the one highway job with the least work (flipping a sign back and forth between “STOP” and “SLOW”)?

Wonder if that $17 an hour is tax-free.

In November, “remember the 51st” and all those politicians who put money ahead of the right thing to do.

But electing and relecting men who could and should have NOT let this situation happen with our borders and law enforcement in the first place weakens your concern.

Oh, and BTW, electing and relecting George Bush as President did NOTHING to improve the situation. Anyone who bitches about the situation ought to turn the mirror around and place the blame there.

Maybe you will finally realize that the Republican Party in this country created this situation since they had the levers of power. Republicans are not your friends on this situation. If you believe their new found religion on this issue, then I have a pushcart business in Manassas you ought to buy!

Stupidity is electing Republicans election after election and expecting different results.
