End of Issue #26


Any Questions?


Editorial and Rants

Dear President Bush,

I'm about to plan a little trip with my family and extended family, and I would like to ask you to assist me.  I'm going to walk across the border from the U.S. into Mexico, and I need to make a few arrangements.  I know you can help with this.

I plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports, immigration quotas and laws.  I'm sure they handle those things the same way you do here.

So, would you mind telling your buddy, President Vicente Fox, that I'm on my way over.  Please let him know that I will be expecting the following:

  1. Free medical care for my entire family.
  2. English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I might need, whether I use them or not.
  3. All government forms need to be printed in English.
  4. I want my kids to be taught by English-speaking teachers.
  5. Schools need to include classes on American culture and history.
  6. I want my kids to see the American flag flying on the top of the flagpole at their school with the Mexican flag flying lower down.
  7. Please plan to feed my kids at school for both breakfast and lunch.
  8. I will need a local Mexican driver's license so I can get easy access to government services.
  9. I do not plan to have any car insurance, and I won't make any effort to learn local traffic laws.
  10. In case one of the Mexican police officers does not get the memo from President Fox to leave me alone, please be sure that all police officers speak English.
  11. I plan to fly the U.S. flag from my housetop, put flag decals on my car, and have a gigantic celebration on July 4th. I do not want any complaints or negative comments from the locals.
  12. I would also like to have a nice job without paying any taxes, and don't enforce any labor laws or tax laws.
  13. Please tell all the people in the country to be extremely nice and never say a critical word about me, or about the strain I might place on the economy.

I know this is an easy request because you already do all these things for all the people who come to the U.S. from Mexico.  I am sure that President Fox won't mind returning the favor if you ask him nicely.  However, if he gives you any trouble, just invite him to go quail hunting with your V.P.

Thank you so much for your kind help.


You won't hear boyfucker mention this on Off the Hook!

Teenager Killed his Sister for Living a Western Life

April 14, 2006 - From: www.timesonline.co.uk

By Roger Boyes

AYHAN SURUCU was so angry when his sister started to wear make-up and date German men that he put a gun to her head at a bus stop and killed her.

The 18-year-old Turk fired three bullets into her brain and calmly walked away.

Boys at a nearby school, attended mainly by the children of immigrant Muslim families, cheered and applauded when news of the murder reached them.

The so-called "honour killing" of Hatun Surucu, 23, last year shocked Germany and sparked intense debate about a conservative Muslim immigrant community at odds with a secular society.

That anger was rekindled yesterday when Surucu, a minor when the murder took place, was sentenced to nine years and three months by a Berlin court, considered lenient by many Germans.

His brothers, Alpaslan, 25, and Mutlu, 26, were acquitted because of lack of evidence, at which friends and family in the courtroom cheered.  The prosecution had sought life sentences for their part in the murder of their sister.

Passing judgment, Michael Degrif said: "It is inconceivable that someone can be killed for living a Western lifestyle."

Although she was brought up in Germany, Hatun was forced into a marriage with her Turkish cousin in east Anatolia.  The marriage broke up and she returned to Berlin with her five-year-old child to live the life of a young German woman: going to discos, renting a small apartment, taking lovers and starting an apprenticeship as an electrician.  She abandoned the traditional headscarf and wore fashionable jeans.  Her three brothers were upset, as was her father.

The state prosecutor had demanded that all three brothers be convicted.  Ayhan, the youngest, had confessed to pulling the trigger but according to the prosecutor the two others had stood guard and obtained the murder weapon.  They denied any involvement.

The evidence of a crown witness, a Turkish girl who wore a bullet-proof vest when she stood in the witness stand, was deemed yesterday to be too flimsy for a conviction.  Only Ayhan, 19, was jailed after admitting that he wanted to "wipe the stain from our family".

There are 40 "honour killings" a year in Germany and most of them result from the failure of an arranged marriage, which are illegal in the country.


Dumb hippies can't keep their propaganda straight...

Anti-Coke Protesters' Logic Falls Flat

April 25, 2006 - From: www.dailybruin.com

By Alec Mouhibian

In order to ride a high horse for any considerable length of time without getting sore, you need a fancy saddle.  A group of righteous high horse hobbyists on campus has chosen the accusation of murder as theirs.

The student group Coke-Free Campus wants to ban Coca-Cola products from UCLA because some of the casualties of the ongoing civil war in Colombia have allegedly included union leaders and Coca-Cola factory workers.

Economically, Coke has no incentive to have employees murdered by guerrillas.  No workers, no Coke: no-brainer.  Legally, they have been acquitted of any responsibility by two judicial inquiries.  So why the persecution?

I tried to find out on Friday.  While Associated Students UCLA heard arguments for and against the charges, a stampede of high horses gathered to whinny in protest outside Kerckhoff.

I found two answers before my cover was blown: "Our campus" and "students' power."  These were in reply to the questions of "Whose campus?" and "Whose power?"  This was the Q&A portion of the protest, but I couldn't decipher what it had to do with Coke's supposed guilt.

One student began the rally by announcing the group's intent to silence Coke's representatives.  He told everyone that when the time came for the representatives to speak in their defense at the meeting inside, he would signal for all to scream and holler.

"You can't speak here," he yelled.  "It's our school and we'll tell you when to speak."

The bullhorn then went to the hands of Karume James, chairman of the African Student Union.  He proceeded to compare what Coke hasn't done to "apartheid, Vietnam, the genocide of black people in the Sudan region."

"It's all for profit," he continued, revealing in one fell swoop the breadth of economic, historical, legal and political knowledge stocked by Coke-Free Campus.

I asked James, between his many speeches, why he's mad at Coke and what evidence he has of its guilt.  "Direct your conversation to one of the organizers," he said.  "I'm just here in support."  Minutes later he was leading the chant, "Coca-Cola stop your lying!  Because of you people are dying!"

The bullhorn made its way to Claire Douglas, who spoke of "the urgency of this issue."  After her speech, she admitted to not being able to say why Coke was guilty.

My search went on.  Finally I was directed to Emily Villagrana, of Conciencia Libre and Raza Womyn.

Villagrana admitted "(Coke isn't) the one doing the killing.  ... The paramilitary in Colombia is the one causing all these deaths, massacres and tortures."  Two minutes later, she was chanting: "Cherry, diet or vanilla: Coca-Cola is a killa."

She admitted Coke was giving Colombians jobs they otherwise would not have.  Two minutes later, she was chanting: "We support workers, we don't support Coke."

After these admissions, all that remained was the complaint that Coke hasn't provided enough protection for its workers.  Any sensible person dreams of a world in which corporations have armed battalions guarding their factories from government intrusion.  Sadly, we have yet to achieve that ideal.

For now, private corporations are subject to the political realities of whatever government they operate under.  How are they expected to provide protection in a war-ravaged country such as Colombia?

"As far as I know, they haven't tried anything," Villagrana said.

I suggested that her knowledge might be augmented by listening to Coca-Cola's defenders at the meeting, rather than attempting to physically silence their free speech.  "You're entitled to believe that," she said.

Her fellow riders who actually attended the meeting were jolted off their horses when a young Colombian refugee emotionally testified to the heroism of the Coca-Cola Company in her native land.  She begged Coke to stay and hold its own, as the thousands of jobs it and other corporations provide help those who would otherwise probably end up joining the paramilitaries.

Colombian Professor Miguel Ceballos, of Foundation for Education, Colombia, said that no Colombian lacks a friend or family member union or nonunion, Coke worker or non-Coke worker who's been killed in the violence.  He bashed the protestors for knowing nothing about the violent context in Colombia, where Coke is a rare force for saving lives.

Ed Potter, the Coke representative, added that Coke has more union employees than any other Colombian company, and that it provides a hotline for its workers to call to get a safety escort to work.

Such are the condition-enhancing incentives of the profit motive, wherever it is allowed to motivate.  Not that the riders really care about Colombian workers or the real effects of profit motive.  They're there for the ride, fairgrounds be darned.


The anti-Coke protesters can only hope to be taken as ridiculously as they sound.  If taken seriously, they'd have to be placed in the same category as Salem witch-hunters and Southern lynch mobs so strong is their willingness to disregard free speech, pursuit of truth and presumption of innocence for the sake of a righteous crusade.

Those tenets are among the core principles of a free society.  If our university has any responsibility, it is to discourage the type of moral inflation that devalues those principles.


These bastards need to be rounded up and shot.

One Reporter's Opinion: Dr. Madeleine Cosman's Legacy - A Harsh Warning

March 10, 2006 - From: www.newsmax.com

By George Putnam

It is this reporter's opinion that we American citizens have lost one of our greatest advocates in the illegal alien invasion battle.  Seldom does a person with such impeccable credentials step forward to participate in the effort to reclaim America.  I speak of Dr. Madeleine Cosman, Ph.D., J.D., M.A., B.A. a medical/legal genius.

Madeleine, a regular on this report, recently died of a rare progressive disease, scleroderma, that leads to hardening and tightening of the skin and connective tissues (the fibers that provide the framework and support for your body).  Ironically, Dr. Cosman, a medical scientist who had dedicated her life to others in need, found herself afflicted by a disease for which there is no known cure.  It is not considered contagious or cancerous, but in the case of Dr. Cosman, it has proved fatal.

In this report and on our radio show, Madeleine familiarized us all with such unfamiliar diseases as dengue fever, Marburg fever, Chagas disease and the re-introduction to our society of smallpox, polio, hepatitis, tuberculosis and leprosy, which is not common knowledge.

The good doctor was concerned in each public appearance and radio and television interview with the illegal aliens who cross our borders medically unexamined.  Said Madeleine, "We may know what illegal aliens carry in their backpacks; we do not know what they carry in their bodies."

Said Dr. Cosman: "When grandpa came to America, he kissed the ground of New York's Ellis Island.  Then he stripped naked and coughed real hard.  Every legal immigrant before 1924 was examined for infectious diseases upon arrival and tested for tuberculosis.  Anyone infected was shipped back to the old country.  That was powerful incentive for each newcomer to make heroic efforts to appear healthy.

"Today, legal immigrants must demonstrate they are free of communicable diseases and drug addiction to qualify for lawful permanent residency green cards.  But illegal aliens stop at no medical checkpoint.  Whoever walks through our golden door comes in whether healthy or sick.  If we catch and detain a sick illegal alien who proves to have a serious disease, we keep him.  Our foolish compassion makes us fear that his home country has neither adequate medical resources nor modern wonder drugs.

"So we release sick illegal aliens to our American streets to infect others if their diseases are contagious, or we place them in our Medicaid program and pay for their expensive treatments."

Thus we see horrendous diseases that we long ago conquered in America are coming back to plague us.  Let's take tuberculosis as an example.  Ordinary T.B. can be cured in six months with four drugs that cost about $2,000.  Serious M.D.R.-T.B. takes 24 months at a cost in expensive drugs at approximately $250,000.  Each illegal alien with M.D.R.-T.B. coughs and infects numerous people who will not show symptoms immediately; the disease explodes later like a time bomb.

In "Hospital to the World Welcomes Illegals and Contagious Diseases" (April 25, 2005), Dr. Cosman informs us that:

Dr. Cosman also told this reporter of other diseases brought back to us by illegals:

We can thank the late Dr. Madeleine Cosman for alerting us to what the illegal aliens bring to us as they cross our borders.  Dr. Cosman was outstanding in the fields of law and medicine, and she provided constant updates on disease information we found nowhere else.  She exposed the disease factors and the astronomical costs to the taxpayers for the medical services never reimbursed as well as the costs of "anchor babies."  Madeleine knew that the wonderful nation left to us by our forefathers could be destroyed without constant vigilance.

Indeed, we are the golden door hospital to the world and we're paying for all of it.  But, dear doctor, you've done us a great public service in keeping us informed.  You, dear friend, will be sorely missed.
