Now appearing at Lincoln Center….

October
2

Gov. Eliot Spitzer wasn’t joking around when, during a speech at Fordham University today, he accused critics of his driver’s license proposal and health care plans of “fear mongering” and employing the “politics of fear and selfishness.”

But he did have a humorous response when a student asked why he chose Fordham’s campus at Lincoln Center in Manhattan as the site for his speech.

“I’ve always wanted to perform at Lincoln Center, ” Spitzer said, sparking laughter from the crowd.

He later added that: “It’s probably because this is the greatest law school in the city, other than Columbia and NYU — or else I’ll be in trouble….I love coming to law schools.”

    Yeah, right. Not that this remark was original or even witty when it was first said in the olden days, but remember this goof has more writers on the (taxpayers’) payroll than Jay Leno. At least Leno doesn’t charge US for his little funnies.

    Governor or Pope!

    We have criminals in this country boldly going where no criminals have gone before. Right out there in front of the Main Stream Media.

    It is long over due that we report these acts of aiding and abetting. It could just be the trigger that the police need to act.

    Many police departments, sheriffs departments, prosecuting attorneys and other law enforcement agency’s can now be contacted online.

    Many in law enforcement feel the same as we do about this illegal invasion.

    Federal Immigration and Nationality Act
    Section 8 USC 1324(a)(1)(A)(iv)(b)(iii)

    “Any person who . . . encourages or induces an alien to . . . reside . . . knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that such . . . residence is . . . in violation of law, shall be punished as provided . . . for each alien in respect to whom such a violation occurs . . . fined under title 18 . . . imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both.”
    Section 274 felonies under the federal Immigration and Nationality Act, INA 274A(a)(1)(A):
    A person (including a group of persons, business, organization, or local government) commits a federal felony when she or he:

    • assists an alien s/he should reasonably know is illegally in the U.S. or who lacks employment authorization, by transporting, sheltering, or assisting him or her to obtain employment, or
    • encourages that alien to remain in the U.S. by referring him or her to an employer or by acting as employer or agent for an employer in any way, or
    • knowingly assists illegal aliens due to personal convictions.

    LATEST POLL DATA…SPITZER APPROVAL AT 47%..LOWER IN
    YONKERS…NICK IS BACCCCCCK!

    People like Ed Koch and Bloomberg are opposed
    to this ill-conceived licenses for illegals plan.

    Clinton and Schumer have ducked voicing their
    opinions on it. Schumer never shuts up, so that
    says something. And Hillary….she’s trying to avoid
    it all. Schumer is falling down flat on his face.

    Polls show he is not believed on “Troopergate,” either.
