Part 4: Fomenting failure in our educational systems
By Frosty Wooldridge
In this final entry of this series on Anchor Babies in America, we shall investigate the unbelievable but verifiable costs to American citizens. Additionally, we will explore ancillary problems created by illegal alien children within our classrooms across the country.
Do we blame the children? No! Do we blame their parents? No!
Who do we blame? Simple! Our U.S. Congress and U.S. presidents from Bush 41, Clinton, Bush 43 and today, Obama! They must take responsibility for this fiscal/educational and linguistic fiasco. They failed to enforce our laws in the past 20 years, and Obama fails to enforce our immigration and labor laws in 2009. Thus, they allowed countless tens of thousands of employers within the United States to subvert our laws as to employment of unlawful immigrants. Our Congress allowed a new 21st century slave class to establish itself in excess of 20 million unlawful aliens—inside this country. The rich benefit and the rest of us subsidize and suffer from it.
While those 20 million enjoy employment, housing, welfare, food and medical care on U.S. taxpayer dollars, 15 million Americans cannot find a job. An astounding 32.2 million Americans subsist on food stamps. Our working poor and minorities languish in the streets and 13 million American children live below the poverty level.
EDUCATIONAL CHAOS
Those 400,000 anchor babies cost taxpayers big time! At $6,000.00 per delivery in our hospitals where those pregnant alien mothers take themselves to birth their children X’s 400,000 annually: $2.4 billion annually. Year after year after year! If the child suffers from autism, Down’s Syndrome, myocardial septal defect (hole in heart), deformity, premature birth in ICU or other problems—the costs may hit $1 million and more.
Remember also, that the mother becomes a ward of the welfare rolls in assisted housing, food stamps, medical care, welfare payments—all on the taxpayer’s dollar. Instead of 400,000 dependents, the actual number doubles to 900,000. Additionally, as that mother births more children, the costs rise dramatically.
Once the child reaches age five, it begins a 13 year educational journey that costs taxpayers on average $9,644.00 annually depending on school districts within the United States. When you add in ‘free’ breakfasts and lunches for those disadvantaged children, the costs rise into the billions of dollars. Finally, English as a Second Language costs taxpayers according to economist Edwin Rubenstein:
“The total additional per pupil costs for language assistance instruction was estimated to be in the range of $200 to $700 in 1981 dollars—equivalent to $460 to $1,600 in 2007 dollars. Using the average of the latter two amounts—$1,030—as our estimate of per pupil cost, the total cost of providing English Language Learning instruction to the 3.8 million students enrolled in those programs would equal about $3.9 billion. ($1,030 × 3.8 million.).” (Source: www.thesocialcontract.com , Department of Education - Immigration Fiscal Impact Statement, By Edwin S. Rubenstein
Volume 18, Number 2 (Winter 2007-2008) Issue theme: "What price mass immigration?"
With those figures of 3.8 million illegal immigrant children and children born as anchor babies X’s a minimum figure of $5.00 for ‘free’ breakfasts and lunches X’s 180 school days equals: $5.42 billion annually.
Talk about throwing U.S. taxpayer dollars down a rat hole, NBC’s Brian Williams reported last June that high school graduation rates around the country suffered tremendously. Detroit public schools, loaded with Middle Eastern legal and illegal immigrants along with unlawful Mexican migrant children tallied an astounding 76 percent dropout/flunkout rate among potential graduating seniors. Other cities like L.A., Chicago and Houston hovered around 50 to 60 percent dropout rates.
Brian Williams reported that 1.2 million ‘American’ teens hit the streets annually “functionally illiterate.”
In my city of Denver, 67 percent of the graduating class dropped out or flunked out before age eighteen. (Source: Rocky Mountain News, “What Happened?”)
Dan Stein at www.fairus.org published a report titled: “Breaking the Piggy Bank: How Illegal Immigration is Sending Schools into the Red”. Estimated costs of educating illegal migrant children and anchor babies: $7.5 billion annually.
The report said, in California, the $2.2 billion spent educating illegal alien immigrants for one year could:
• Pay the salaries for 41,764 teachers.
• CA schools are threatened with a $1.5 billion cut next year. Eliminating illegals would pay for all needs.
• Pay for CA’s class sizes to remain capped at 20 students for a year, with $300 million to spare.
• Buy books and computers to equip 346,689 classrooms or 79 percent of classrooms in California.
• Fully fund the state’s free lunch program for poor American students for two years.
Instead, California dropped from the top five top school systems in the United States to the bottom five states. Teaches struggle teaching with 113 different languages in their classrooms. As a teacher, I can tell you that more than one language in a classroom causes educational tension, ethnic tension from lack of ability to communicate and racial separation.
Students become angry, stubborn and overwhelmed as they ‘drop out’ from sheer frustration and inability to perform academically. Violence ensues or complete withdrawal! Thousands join gangs for their identity.
Finally, what about U.S. children? What about the quality of their educations? What about their well-being? What about our own poverty-stricken students and special needs across the country?
Today, one-third of all students graduating from high schools heavily impacted by mass immigration must take remedial courses in universities to bring their minds up to speed for college work. In thousands of schools, gangs, foreign languages and strange customs usurp the educational experience for U.S. students.
At some point, and soon, we must stop ‘birthright citizenship’ as all other countries, including Ireland and New Zealand, have done.
This year, House member Nathan Deal introduced HR 1868: reintroduced his Birthright Citizenship bill that would eliminate automatic citizenship for children born in the United States to illegal aliens. The Birthright Citizenship Act of 2009 (H.R.1868) would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to make it more difficult for children born in the U.S. to gain citizenship.
Under the proposed legislation, a person born in the United States, in order to gain citizenship, must have at least one parent who is:
• a U.S. citizen or national;
• a lawful permanent resident alien whose residence is in the United States; or
• an alien performing active service in the U.S. Armed Forces.
Thank you for joining www.numbersusa.com and www.capsweb.org and www.fairus.org to send in pre-written faxes that will push the entire Congress to pass this important bill. Otherwise, you will keep paying and paying billions and billions—year after year with no end in sight.
Additionally, when those kids reach 18, they can chain migrate their entire families into the USA—causing a horrific overload of our infrastructure, carrying capacity and quality of life. Not to mention we are displacing Americans out of their own culture, language and way of life!

This three minute interview with Adam Schrager on “Your Show” May 4, 2008, NBC Channel 9 News, addresses the ramifications of adding 120 million people to USA in 35 years and six million people to Colorado as to water shortages, air pollution, loss of farmland, energy costs and degradation of quality of life. In the interview, Frosty Wooldridge explains the ramifications of adding 120 million people to the USA in 35 years. He advances new concepts such as a “Colorado Carrying Capacity Policy”; “Colorado Environmental Impact Policy”; “Colorado Water Usage Policy”; “Colorado Sustainable Population Policy”. Nationally, the USA needs a "National Sustainable Population Policy" to determine the carrying capacity of this nation for the short and long term. Wooldridge is available for interviews on radio and TV having interviewed on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and FOX.

What Americans Think About the Population Debate
Part 1: Raging controversy
By Frosty Wooldridge
At long last, the Economist Magazine offered a debate on its website that garnered thousands of responses. John Seager, president of Population Connection (formerly ZPG), promotes population stabilization and long term decline. He proposes that Americans live within the carrying capacity of the land. Opposing him, MICHAEL LIND, Policy Director, Economic Growth/Next Social Contract Program, New America Foundation, promotes population expansion. Lind encourages unlimited expansion of human population.
Link: http://www.economist.com/debate/overview/151?source=most_commented
Readers from around the world weighed in with their ideas on what our civilization faces:
Emilio V. said, “Population growth is at the heart of most of the major problems we face regarding our continuance as a species. Our insistence on economic models of growth and population expansion will continue to hasten the magnitude of the problems of resource scarcity, carrying capacity, environmental degradation, and the effects of these problems on politics and government control of populations. Alleviating the pressures caused by overpopulation would result in benefits to the majority of the world's people, probably not at first as the older generations will demographically outweigh younger ones, but if growth can be managed (a big IF) benefits would be had for all in the long run. This is the elephant in the room.”
William H. said, “Your article in opednews today is right on point. Thanks for writing. Inasmuch as it speaks the truth, it brings to mind a few historic comments about the truth, namely Shopenhauer's three stages and Churchill's pithy comments. My view, coming from a medical, and by that biologic and evolutionary, background, is that, while people like you articulate the looming tragedy and misery that will surely ensue, the human race, bound to obey its DNA, will without a pause, reproduces itself into a pollution and starvation-driven near-extinction. The charitable and "good" among us will only exacerbate that course by struggling with the endpoints (starvation, pollution and disease) while remaining emotionally incapable of focusing on the root cause, overpopulation. Thank you for your effort. I will keep your website in mind in the event that some venue among my colleagues or other local organizations might present an opportunity to have you present your information. I hope I am wrong, but everything I see from behavior and history says that I am not.”
Onechild wrote, “I am an only child and the father of an only child. I want the best for by daughter and al life on earth. Every added child compromises the quality of life, and perhaps even the opportunity for existence for all species. We will be running out of essential resources just as our population peaks. Nine billion people struggling to "live off of the land", will leave little in their wake. The ONLY solution is to humanely reduce our population down to the 1.5 to two billion that can truly be sustained. The longer we let the population overshoot go on, the faster and farther all life will crash.”
Albert K. said, “Wow, if there were ever a topic that needs wider discussion, it's that of population growth. Do world leaders and local leaders avoid talking about this issue because it's not important? No, they refuse to discuss it because it is can become personal - it's about peoples' personal choices and how they add up. So, what we need to do is include this in every discussion about climate change. And every discussion about pollution. And every discussion about the price of commodities, hunger, species loss, etc. The issue of the world's population is so under-represented, it's slightly crazy. We all need to hear thoughts on this issue - and not just on some obscure on-line forum, but right on the front page of your magazine. Please don't bury this story, help get it out there.”
Ms. S. wrote, “By battening off the world's resources, and congratulating and justifying ourselves with religious texts we composed ourselves, we rapacious apes have obscenely bloated our numbers. Now we're hitting the resources wall. I can't help but think that famine, war, and plague will decimate our populations before the century has ended. I just feel sorry for the other animals and for the wild flowers we have taken, and will take, down with us.”
Arm R. said, “IgnorantAmerican wrote "If we can come up with a plausible way to colonize space, overpopulation will become a thing of the past." IF we had the energy available, and invented technologies that at this point are deemed impossible (or at least very difficult), and if Star Trek was real, then we might be able to do that. I'm not willing to gamble the future of my children on some cultist technological fantasy, though.”
Common S. wrote, “It is normal that every Chinese, Indian, Brazilian, African etc wishes to eventually get the same level of comfort as is available in the richest countries of the world. But the earth resources are not sufficient for nine billion people, or seven billion living in such a way, even we come up with clever solutions like renewable energy and eco-design, for part of our consumption. Since we cannot go backwards, the only way is to go forwards in our control of nature by learning to control the ultimate thing, the number of humans on earth, before nature fights back, and either starves us through food depletion connected to climate change or reduces our numbers through one or more HxNx virus, like any ordinary animal species.”
You might join this debate by your letters to the editor in your local newspapers. You may spur NPR to investigate. You might encourage your local PBS station to run a series. You might email your local radio talk show to invite population/environmental guests onto their shows.
Today, the United States grows as the third fastest country in the world on its way to adding 100 million people via immigration by 2035 and 138 million by 2050. Our civilization lacks the water, energy and resources to maintain our current standard of living. Such a huge population growth guarantees loss of standard of living, quality of life, degraded environment, massive species extinction rates, water scarcity, energy crises and a Pandora’s Box of multiple consequences.
You may ask the question: “Do I want my children living in this country with another added 100 million people.”
I suggest the answer is a loud and definite, “NO!”

This three minute interview with Adam Schrager on “Your Show” May 4, 2008, NBC Channel 9 News, addresses the ramifications of adding 120 million people to USA in 35 years and six million people to Colorado as to water shortages, air pollution, loss of farmland, energy costs and degradation of quality of life. In the interview, Frosty Wooldridge explains the ramifications of adding 120 million people to the USA in 35 years. He advances new concepts such as a “Colorado Carrying Capacity Policy”; “Colorado Environmental Impact Policy”; “Colorado Water Usage Policy”; “Colorado Sustainable Population Policy”. Nationally, the USA needs a "National Sustainable Population Policy" to determine the carrying capacity of this nation for the short and long term. Wooldridge is available for interviews on radio and TV having interviewed on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and FOX.

TEDDY KENNEDY’S DEADLY LEGACY FOR AMERICA
By Frosty Wooldridge
Teddy Kennedy died yesterday, but his history grows more deadly for future Americans.
Instead of a rich legacy bequeathed upon the United States by forever U.S. Senator Teddy Kennedy, the oft-intoxicated, blubbery fourth brother of the Kennedy clan—four decades ago--drunkenly drove over a bridge that caused the death of Mary Jo Kopechne and lied about what happened.
But his worst and most destructive legacy for the United States stems from his authorship of the 1965 “Immigration Reform Act” that added the bulk of our additional 100 million people into America within 40 years. It jumped legal immigration from 170,000 annually to 1.1 million annually. Added to that disastrous environmental legacy, his actions provoked a complete ethnic change of our stable society into a fractured civilization. How? He provided for entrance of immigrants from cultures totally incompatible with U.S. culture. He downgraded citizenship by not enforcing our laws or maintaining educational standards.
“We are the only country in history that deliberately changed its ethnic makeup, and history has few examples of ‘diversity’ creating a stable society.” Governor Richard D. Lamm
As those immigrants poured into this country, he facilitated and languished as millions of illegal aliens marched across our borders to wreak havoc on our schools, communities, jobs, hospitals, language and prisons. Over 20,000 members of MS-13 gangs distribute $130 billion in drugs yearly. We pay for 400,000 babies born to illegal alien mothers annually. We suffer 28 million Americans on food stamps because illegals downgrade wages and take jobs from our working poor.
Kennedy single handedly planted the seeds for the destruction of our country per the words of President Teddy Roosevelt, “The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, or preventing all possibility of its continuing as a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities.”
How did Kennedy answer that crisis of unrelenting illegal border crossing? He proposed, wrote and encouraged Ronald Reagan to sign the 1986 Immigration Amnesty that allowed what he said were only 1.3 million illegals. The true number of illegal aliens that gained instant citizenship became 4.3 million.
Later, Reagan said signing that amnesty was the worse mistake of his presidency.
Last June, 2007, as another 20 million illegal aliens broke over U.S. borders since 1986, Kennedy tried to give another amnesty by forcing S.B. 1639 into law with his bluster and pompous bellowing. He voted to double legal immigration to 2.2 million annually! Kennedy remains responsible for our $346 billion annual costs paying for illegal aliens!
In Dr. Otis Graham’s “Unguarded Gates: A History of America’s Immigration Crisis”, he writes, “Most Western elites continue urging the wealthy West not to stem the migrant tide, but to absorb our global brothers and sisters until their horrid ordeal has been endured and shared by all--ten billion humans packed onto an ecologically devastated planet.”
Kennedy voted for the fraudulent Iraq War that killed 4,000 American soldiers and wounded 31,000 to date. He’s voted against making English our national language which ensures further Balkanization of our nation via linguistic chaos. When a nation cannot speak to itself, it becomes fractured and separated.
While he battles with brain cancer, we battle for our nation’s life. While he sails his boat around Martha’s Vineyard, we pick up millions of pieces of trash on our borders from invading illegal alien hordes that he encourages. While he tips yet another glass of wine, we struggle to maintain our schools, communities, hospitals and prisons from this illegal invasion. While he sat on his barnyard wide rear-end for 40 years in the Senate creating the problems that now destroy our nation, we watched the American Dream turn into a nightmare.
Contrary to the editors of the Denver Post, Ted Kennedy may be likened to Nero of Rome who fiddled while it burned. Kennedy drank while we fought for our nation’s survival. Kennedy ate at the finest tables while we struggled with his voting for H-1B and H-2B visas that displaced millions of American workers. Kennedy sailed his boat while our nation sank into consequences of a dysfunctional and unsustainable nation.
Because of Kennedy, our successful culture finds itself turning into a foreign culture that failed, i.e., Mexico. The March PEW report shows Mexicans in America becoming the new dominate majority by 2050 at 53 percent.
In other words, rather than serving America and our future, Senator Ted Kennedy destroyed our America just as quickly as he took Mary Jo Kopechne’s life on a drunken night somewhere back in the 60s. As she fought for her life in that car as the waters rose above her, he escaped.
While we struggle nostril-deep in the nightmare waters of immigration swirling around us, we may well drown, too!
Once again, Teddy Kennedy escapes via death while we struggle for our nation’s life.

OF MYTH AND LEGEND: STURGIS MOTORCYCLE RALLY 2009
By Frosty Wooldridge
They say, "Good girls go to heaven and bad girls to go Sturgis!"
That's why ALL the boys, including preacher's sons go to Sturgis! Let's ride!
On the back of one motorcycle rider’s shirt, “One week of Sturgis makes the other 51 weeks bearable!” Further down the road, another rider sported a T-shirt that read, “If you can read this, the bitch fell off!” A few miles down the road, a female rider’s T-shirt read, “I’m the bitch that fell off so I bought my own bike; besides Viagra couldn’t help him so I fell off on purpose!”
Three weeks previous to the granddaddy of motorcycle rallies, Sturgis, South Dakota, my brother Howard and sister Linda said, “Hey, let’s meet in Sturgis!” I said, “Go for it! I’ll meet you at Hog Heaven campground!”
The first weekend of August, Sandi and I strapped the camping gear to the Wing for our journey from Denver, Colorado to Sturgis, South Dakota. We hit I-70 headed east into the soup of Denver just as the sun cracked the horizon. Beautiful strawberry rays lit gray sky banners streaming over the skyscrapers of the city. We dodged traffic on our way to I-76 headed east.
Within 45 minutes, we flew through early morning mist as the traffic lightened on our way onto the multicolored Great Plains of America. One hundred and fifty years ago, we might have seen some of the 60 million buffalo grazing among the wildflowers. But today, windmills for water tanks and thousands of cattle munched on the eternal grasses. Above, a hawk or two sailed on thermals as he looked for his breakfast below.
Once out of the city, the sky opened to its proverbial blue while it rolled all the way to the horizon for 360 degrees. Something about being on a motorcycle on the Great Plains, riding a modern iron horse under big skies that fill a man’s heart with the beat of the universe. We passed through cold spots, hot spots and misty clouds hanging low to the earth. We rolled past big 18-wheeler rigs heading eastbound.
In some places, the grasses grew so tall, the backs of cattle resembled torpedoes moving slowly toward an unknown target. Again, above, hawks plied the sky with outstretched wings.
Soon, we reached Sterling and headed north along a country road. Lot’s of big turbines caught the wind to create electricity for farmers and towns along the way. Farmers cut the midsummer grass and big balers rolled it into giant round wheels. In several places, they still baled those 60 pound bales that I threw around as a teenager on the farm.
At I-80 in Nebraska, we stopped at Cabela’s Sporting store to see the sculptors and sports gear offered to travelers from all over the West. After a gas up, we headed north toward Allison. An hour later, we move through old town, filled with tractors and cars out of the 50s, silos and railroad terminals.
We stopped at the Stonehenge of North America that recreated Stonehenge in England, but this artist constructed his artwork out of cars. Recently, archeologists discovered that Stonehenge represented an old burial ground. The remaining pillars formed a vast infrastructure for the rich and the poor to be buried so they might find their way to heaven.
Back on the road, we enjoyed trees growing along rolling hills that morphed into rock strewn hills and small mountains in the distance. Soon, we rolled into big curves with lakes off to the sides.
When we hit South Dakota, huge evergreens shot heavenward with a serpentine road turning, diving and climbing through their silent beauty. Off to our right, big columns of gray rock strutted skyward in a vertical display of grandeur.
As we traveled, the air freshened, the temperature cooled and the road slipped quietly under the purring motor of the Wing. I thought about how much fun to see my sister Linda after three years and my brother Howard, and all of us together for such a grand event. We had traveled to Alaska, 10,000 miles in two months, back in 2003. We had ridden from Michigan to California back in 1980. Quite a feat for siblings within different lifestyles and connections!
I thought about my brother Howard and how he had made a new life with Karen in Washington, DC. I thought about how he had created a new career and lived it with gusto. I thought about how he changed the face of the War on Drugs with his superb speaking and writing. I felt great pride in his accomplishments. He had ridden Misty across the United States. He authored a superb book. He made our dad and mom proud for his great contributions in the world. I felt a tear run down my cheek as I thought about what a privilege I enjoyed to not only be his longest friend, but his brother and to know him for a lifetime. He lived what Thoreau said, ““If you advance confidently toward your dreams, and endeavor to live the life, which you have imagined, you will meet with success unexpected in common hours. You will pass through invisible boundaries and live with the license of a higher order of beings.”
And my sister, I am so proud of her. She endured much in the past 10 years. But, she kept her spirit skyward. She gained her MBA at Wisconsin. She’s working on a new book. She found a great man in Orrin and she brought two great kids into the world. She offers life her best and life has offered its best to her. She’s a woman of many talents whether playing a guitar or painting the dance floor. Jean Luc Picard Captain of the Starship Enterprise, said, “Time is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived.”
On the back of my bike, Sandi, my sparkle sunshine, comes up with ideas and inspiration. She talks to me and inspires me. She also has written a book and brought two fine young men into the world. She continually moves through life with great joy and tremendous enthusiasm. I feel blessed beyond all measure to share my life with her.
And the road, ahead, it calls, it dips, it rises, it shoots straight and cuts left. The Wing moves effortlessly toward our destination in Deadwood. We pass through towns, hamlets and villages on our way. We pass through ‘old’ America of what once was and continues into the 21st century. At some point, much of America will hunger to get back to the ‘old’ America for the ‘new’ America changes too fast, too much and without regard to enduring traditions of this country.
But for a moment in time, for one week, Sturgis represents all of America! It features the grand parade of the Iron Horse and the ‘true grit’ that made this country! It may be a myth and it may be a legend, but for those who power two wheels into the turns, it’s a feeling, a gut reaction to freedom. It’s the sweet spot of cycling that carries the soul to a quiet moment of elation. Some might say that Iron Horse creates a giddiness, ecstasy, euphoria and sheer delight of the soul.
I scanned ahead, watching the road. I cranked the throttle as I headed the big machine along the snaking highway. In Deadwood, we saw a thousand bikes before turning east toward Sturgis. The road curled through a steep canyon with a river below.
Entering Sturgis during the rally can be likened to another world. I can describe it, but it must be lived to understand it. We pulled into the campground. Later, we headed downtown where the “Gauntlett” awaited. What describes the Gauntlett? The entire main street of Sturgis for six blocks gets cordoned off and only motorcycles can drive on the street. They park so as to create a line of bikes on the left and right and in the middle so that only one groove travels both ways. Bikers ride their fancy bikes from $1,000.000 to $100,000.00.
We had seen motorcycles in the shape of the Starship Enterprise, a buffalo, a 57 tri-motorcycle Cadillac, a Barker Lounger bike complete with lamp and beer holder, an old John Deere tractor. That first night, we saw a motorcycle with elk horns on the front and a giant grizzly beat drapped over the bike with its head reaching out the back. The bear sported motorcycle goggles. On top of the bear, a fox with goggles also looked back. Drapped off to the sides, two stuffed coyotes also featured goggles. They represented some wild bikin’ dudes! I feared for my life to run into the owner!
Along the street, tattoo venders inked up peoples’ arms, legs, chests and backs. Eagles soared and snakes curled around their arms and up their necks. At the annual tattoo contest in Sturgis, you couldn’t help but feel sorry for the winner. They usually had their bodies covered with hideous figures. One lady, wearing a bikini, slim and blond, sported a “Tony the Tiger” crawling up her back with his paws up the back side of her arms and his legs down her legs. His tail curled around her right leg all the way down to her ankles. Yes, all in orange and black tattoo! Can you imagine the conversation you might enjoy if you engaged her and what kind of a mind she represented or presented? Carl Yung and Freud might write a whole new book on what goes around in her mind!
Leather! You could smell it in the air, in ever shop and you could buy all colors as long as you chose black. Also, in nine days, $12 million changed hands in Sturgis with a whopping crowd of 400,000 cyclists. People from over 100 countries visited the rally and all 50 states and 10 Canadian provinces. Each shop caters to folks with food, trinkets, T-shirts, bags, used parts, tires, oil changes, detailing and just about everything under the sun.
Out on the main strip, you could buy $72,000.00 motorcycles, tri-bikes and custom everything.
We decided to turn in early so we traveled back to our campsite.
Next morning, I called Howard. He and Karen spent the a.m. riding down to Mount Rushmore with the four great presidents: Teddy Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Washington and Jefferson. Those great men represent energy, leadership and faith in the American way of life.
Howard, Karen, Linda, Orrin, Scott, Sandi and I met on the main street of Sturgis. We toured the city and spent the morning talking about the sights, sounds and people walking around Sturgis. Scott, Linda’s son found himself in new surroundings. Much different than Madison, Wisconsin!
We ate lunch at the Broken Spoke Saloon where a band played too loud and Scott got to close to a woman’s belly button as he tried to eat a slab of whipped cream. Too funny as she shoved his nose into her navel. All in great fun! Near the end of the day, we jumped on the bikes for a ride to Deadwood, South Dakota where we saw more cyclists and stopped in at Number 10 Saloon where Wild Bill Hickock suffered a gunshot to the back of the head and died instantly back on August 2, 1876. Aces and eights make up the Dead Man’s Hand from that day to this day. We viewed a wonderful train exhibit in the basement of one of the hotels. Extensive and intricate! Beautiful work!
Later, we toured north along a fantastic canyon toward Spearfish. We stopped in for a quick conversation at the motel and biked over to a Mexican Restaurant for a fabulous meal. Stories, laughter and jokes all around from our wild and crazy crew.
Later, at dusk, we jumped on the bikes for an almost surreal ride back to Sturgis. With the sun setting, the air perfect, and the sky glowing with the last rays of the sun—the four of us riders and mates on the back slipped through the ending of the day and the beginning of the night. Tall mountains on both sides of the expressway guided us toward our destination. Sandi took shots of Orrin, Linda, Howard and Karen. Nothing quite like being on a motorcycle when the still air invites every breath and your skin tingles with the magic of racing the wind. The moment reminded me of riding with my siblings to Alaska and those magic moments and great pictures for our scrapbooks. Soon, the sun vanished, the stars appeared and the lights of the bikes cut through the darkness. We rolled into Sturgis to watch the evening’s festivities on the “Gauntlet”.
After parking our bikes along the Gauntlet, we stood waiting for all the wild and crazy bikers in costume to make their appearances. We didn’t find it a great night for watching, but before we left, one gal wore a string teddy with a body stocking and not much else.
As with all good times, they must come to an end as we all go back to our busy lives. We gave each other a hug and jumped back on our bikes. Scott, Sandi and I rode back to our campground in the woods. Next morning, we cleared camp. Scott took off early to eat breakfast with his mom. Sandi and I broke camp and headed toward Wyoming.
Sturgis! A wild moment, a good time and a shared memory for Linda, Orrin, Howard, Karen, Scott, Frosty and Sandi.
As I headed my bike into the wind, the trees sped past, the road flew under my pegs, the wind refreshed my lungs and the morning sun brightened the day. Sandi and I stopped at an all you can eat restaurant for a great breakfast. Bikers lined the streets of Custer and we even met the guy who looks like General George Armstrong Custer. Sandi had taken a picture with him the year before.
No doubt, history rolls across the hills of South Dakota, Wyoming, Nebraska and Colorado. We headed south with saddle bags full of memories. Yippee ki yea and away we sped into the morning sun!

We had seen motorcycles in the shape of the Starship Enterprise, a buffalo, a 57 tri-motorcycle Cadillac, a Barker Lounger bike complete with lamp and beer holder, an old John Deere tractor. That first night, we saw a motorcycle with elk horns on the front and a giant grizzly beat drapped over the bike with its head reaching out the back. The bear sported motorcycle goggles. On top of the bear, a fox with goggles also looked back. Drapped off to the sides, two stuffed coyotes also featured goggles. They represented some wild bikin’ dudes! I feared for my life to run into the owner!
Along the street, tattoo venders inked up peoples’ arms, legs, chests and backs. Eagles soared and snakes curled around their arms and up their necks. At the annual tattoo contest in Sturgis, you couldn’t help but feel sorry for the winner. They usually had their bodies covered with hideous figures. One lady, wearing a bikini, slim and blond, sported a “Tony the Tiger” crawling up her back with his paws up the back side of her arms and his legs down her legs. His tail curled around her right leg all the way down to her ankles. Yes, all in orange and black tattoo! Can you imagine the conversation you might enjoy if you engaged her and what kind of a mind she represented or presented? Carl Yung and Freud might write a whole new book on what goes around in her mind!
Leather! You could smell it in the air, in ever shop and you could buy all colors as long as you chose black. Also, in nine days, $12 million changed hands in Sturgis with a whopping crowd of 400,000 cyclists. People from over 100 countries visited the rally and all 50 states and 10 Canadian provinces. Each shop caters to folks with food, trinkets, T-shirts, bags, used parts, tires, oil changes, detailing and just about everything under the sun.
Out on the main strip, you could buy $72,000.00 motorcycles, tri-bikes and custom everything.
We decided to turn in early so we traveled back to our campsite.
Next morning, I called Howard. He and Karen spent the a.m. riding down to Mount Rushmore with the four great presidents: Teddy Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Washington and Jefferson. Those great men represent energy, leadership and faith in the American way of life.
Howard, Karen, Linda, Orrin, Scott, Sandi and I met on the main street of Sturgis. We toured the city and spent the morning talking about the sights, sounds and people walking around Sturgis. Scott, Linda’s son found himself in new surroundings. Much different than Madison, Wisconsin!
We ate lunch at the Broken Spoke Saloon where a band played too loud and Scott got to close to a woman’s belly button as he tried to eat a slab of whipped cream. Too funny as she shoved his nose into her navel. All in great fun! Near the end of the day, we jumped on the bikes for a ride to Deadwood, South Dakota where we saw more cyclists and stopped in at Number 10 Saloon where Wild Bill Hickock suffered a gunshot to the back of the head and died instantly back on August 2, 1876. Aces and eights make up the Dead Man’s Hand from that day to this day. We viewed a wonderful train exhibit in the basement of one of the hotels. Extensive and intricate! Beautiful work!
Later, we toured north along a fantastic canyon toward Spearfish. We stopped in for a quick conversation at the motel and biked over to a Mexican Restaurant for a fabulous meal. Stories, laughter and jokes all around from our wild and crazy crew.
Later, at dusk, we jumped on the bikes for an almost surreal ride back to Sturgis. With the sun setting, the air perfect, and the sky glowing with the last rays of the sun—the four of us riders and mates on the back slipped through the ending of the day and the beginning of the night. Tall mountains on both sides of the expressway guided us toward our destination. Sandi took shots of Orrin, Linda, Howard and Karen. Nothing quite like being on a motorcycle when the still air invites every breath and your skin tingles with the magic of racing the wind. The moment reminded me of riding with my siblings to Alaska and those magic moments and great pictures for our scrapbooks. Soon, the sun vanished, the stars appeared and the lights of the bikes cut through the darkness. We rolled into Sturgis to watch the evening’s festivities on the “Gauntlet”.
After parking our bikes along the Gauntlet, we stood waiting for all the wild and crazy bikers in costume to make their appearances. We didn’t find it a great night for watching, but before we left, one gal wore a string teddy with a body stocking and not much else.
As with all good times, they must come to an end as we all go back to our busy lives. We gave each other a hug and jumped back on our bikes. Scott, Sandi and I rode back to our campground in the woods. Next morning, we cleared camp. Scott took off early to eat breakfast with his mom. Sandi and I broke camp and headed toward Wyoming.
Sturgis! A wild moment, a good time and a shared memory for Linda, Orrin, Howard, Karen, Scott, Frosty and Sandi.
As I headed my bike into the wind, the trees sped past, the road flew under my pegs, the wind refreshed my lungs and the morning sun brightened the day. Sandi and I stopped at an all you can eat restaurant for a great breakfast. Bikers lined the streets of Custer and we even met the guy who looks like General George Armstrong Custer. Sandi had taken a picture with him the year before.
No doubt, history rolls across the hills of South Dakota, Wyoming, Nebraska and Colorado. We headed south with saddle bags full of memories. Yippee ki yea and away we sped into the morning sun!

Part 3: ANCHOR BABIES--THE IRISH GOT IT RIGHT
By Frosty Wooldridge
Does this sound familiar? "Children born to foreign parents in Dublin maternity hospitals accounted for 25 per cent of total births this year,” according to Declan Keane, Master of the National Maternity Hospital. “This number is causing major problems.”
"We were stretched last year and the situation is even worse this year,” Dr. Keane said. “We have more and more patients and no resources to hire extra staff to look after them. That means cutting corners. If you cut corners then safety is an issue.”
"It is worth noting that very few immigrant parents are actually refugees or asylum-seekers and the majority are people who have come over here to have an Irish baby and Irish citizen," said Dr Keane.
A member of Fianna Fail, Ireland's Republican Party, appearing on television stating that "60% of all female asylum-seekers over the age of 16 arrive here pregnant."
Ireland is experiencing the same abuse of their immigration laws as the U.S. The difference is they choose to do something about it. In January 2003 the Irish Supreme Court ruled in a landmark decision by a 5-2 verdict that immigrant parents of an Irish born child could be deported. This was the first reversal of Ireland's liberal policy of granting residency and possibly citizenship to anyone who had a baby on the island, including illegal aliens. Deputy Prime Minister Mary Harney was encouraged by the courts decision, saying, “It will prevent others from coming to Ireland to abuse our asylum process on the basis that they are pregnant."
It was common practice for non EU member nationals, mostly from Nigeria, to come to Ireland claiming political asylum. Many came pregnant. AP writer Shawn Pogatchnik writes, "While asylum applications frequently take years to complete, until now the birth of a child has resolved matters conclusively--with Irish citizenship for the infant and residency rights for the mother, usually followed by arrivals of more relatives."
Are you getting the picture? We are not alone in this fight. This is happening to every First World nation. Ireland has become a destination country, just like America. The difference is they recognized their liberal immigration laws were being trashed and put a stop to it.
By November 2001 asylum seekers had submitted 5,247 applications asking for permission to remain in the country on the basis of parenting an Irish citizen child. In 2002 residency was granted to 4000 asylum seekers based on giving birth to an Irish child, while another 10, 462 remained outstanding. In March 2002 the government of Ireland stated it "would oppose granting residency rights to the parents of Irish-born children in two cases, and may seek a constitutional referendum to end birthright citizenship."
They recognized the recent Supreme Court decision wasn't working. More and more asylum seekers and illegal aliens were arriving and they were not being deported. Irish hospitals were filling up with pregnant immigrant women.
In June 2004 the Irish people took action. They voted birthright citizenship out of existence. By an overwhelming success the Citizenship Referendum passed by 79.17% Yes and 20.83% No.
The Twenty Seventh-Amendment Bill of the Irish Constitution now reads:
1. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Constitution, a person born on the island of Ireland, which includes its islands and seas, who does not have, at the time of the birth of that person, at least one parent who is an Irish citizen or entitled to be an Irish citizen is not entitled to Irish citizenship or nationality, unless provided for by law.
2. This section shall not apply to persons born before the date of the enactment of this section.
Ireland is a parliamentary democracy and they take democracy seriously. The people decided. They experienced the usual whining and complaining by liberal groups that did not want to see this referendum succeed, but they rose above it. They did the right thing for their country. They put Ireland and its people first.
Ireland was the last of the 15 original EU countries to abolish birthright citizenship. They did not want to be seen as a back door to the European Union citizenship. No anchor babies plague Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Portugal, and the United Kingdom. The Irish got it right!
What does it mean for America with over 400,000 ‘anchor babies’ being fraudulently born in our country annually? Do American citizens like adding not only 400,000 welfare cases but the added 300,000 mothers that go with those babies? That’s 600,000 people sticking their straws into the public trough. Why is it that we become responsible for this financial nightmare when we’ve got over a million homeless Americans? How about our school systems clawing for money? How about our millions of Americans on food stamps? What about our Social Security system financing other countries like Mexico? Why does our Congress condone this growing ‘anchor baby’ nightmare? When does the insanity of this immigration nightmare end? When will you, as an American, raise your voice? If you’re Irish, raise your hand. If you’re just plain disgusted, do something today.
One illegal alien and pro-anchor baby scoffed at this series:
“Mr. Frosty, the solution is simple: Whitey needs to get another job and pay more taxes. We are not going ANYWHERE. With Sotomayor ensconced in the Supreme Court, and more retirements coming, soon we will strike down all racist laws and regulations. Our Obama has promised us amnesty once he gets re-elected and has nothing to fear from the bigots and racists. You can't blame us for procreating and gaming the system. If anyone is to blame, it is the stupid crackers who are letting us take over because they are too cowed by Political Correctness. I say this because I know that I can get away with it. Americans are the laughingstock of the world. Your fathers murdered, raped, pillaged, and plundered to build this nation on stolen lands. Isn't it ironic that their descendants are giving away all they killed for? In the meantime, just continue forking over the tribute. We want more and more and will never be satisfied until we suck this b*tch dry!” Cordially, Subcomandante Pedro

We must 'sour the milk.’ Bring out your points in the call:
1. America cannot support another 100 million people added to our country in 26 years, i.e., water crisis, resource depletion, air pollution, gridlock, loss of quality of life, etc.
2. America cannot support lawbreakers being given citizenship.
3. America must maintain our English language as primary, period.
4. America wants only legal immigrants who play by the rules, and speak English.
5. America's working poor deserve a chance at jobs taken by illegals.
6. America already has too many people. Support a 10 year moratorium on all immigration.
7. Americans must maintain our high-quality public schools for our children.
8. We can no longer tolerate 400,000 or more expensive birthright citizens (anchor babies) annually, that subtract from our own citizens.
9. Voluntary repatriation is a great thing; Attrition through enforcement by stopping their ability to wire money home, obtain rental housing and jobs will encourage early departure.
10. An amnesty failed in 1986 (gave more than 3 million carte blanc citizenship), and it will only be worse today. We're being displaced out of our jobs and out of our own country.
Call your elected leaders with relentless and never-give-up passion.

In the interview, Frosty Wooldridge explains the ramifications of adding 120 million people to the USA in 35 years. He advances new concepts such as a “Colorado Carrying Capacity Policy”; “Colorado Environmental Impact Policy”; “Colorado Water Usage Policy”; “Colorado Sustainable Population Policy”. Nationally, the USA needs a "National Sustainable Population Policy" to determine the carrying capacity of this nation for the short and long term. Wooldridge is available for interviews on radio and TV having interviewed on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and FOX.

ANCHOR BABIES: ENORMOUS TAXPAYER COSTS—PART II

Average Americans fail to understand the enormous ramifications of 400,000 anchor babies born within the United States annually. They swamp our hospitals, ER wards and school systems. They cost taxpayers billions for ‘free’ breakfasts and lunches along with English as a Second Language classes. Most of them flunk out of high schools, at which point, they either become pregnant themselves or join gangs. As they turn to the dark side, they fill our prison systems.

The mind-bending costs, according to Edwin Rubenstein, National Research Center, www.thesocialcontract.com , 2008 report, showed unlawful immigration costing American taxpayers $346 billion annually across 15 federal agencies.
A reader said, “Great article about anchor babies becoming instant US citizens. I live in New York City...the amount of Mexicans having babies here is CRAZY! When I pick up my children at school I see Mexican mothers pregnant over and over, again and again, year after year. That's our city, state and federal government at work! But wait! The Chinese are number two after the Mexicans! It's unstoppable!”
Another reader said, “This event is easily prevented. The child's birth initiates this question to the mother: WHO HAS CUSTODY OF THIS CHILD? If the Mother answers that she has custody, then the Mother and child are sent to her home nation. If the Mother denies custody, the State takes custody of the child and sends the Mother to her home nation. The Citizen rights of the child are not invoked until age 21years of age. Results: No anchor baby, no family attachment, no flood of future births in the US, problem solved. Our Government has flimflammed this nation into accepting these 3rd world immigrants to enhance thoughtless voters.”
A third reader said, “Could it be that our congressman refuse to address the anchor baby problem because they are afraid of mass race rioting and boycotts? The Latino population is quite possibly the most ethnocentric of all the ethnicities. Most of them want what they perceive is best for Latinos; regardless of the consequences for all ethnicities, and regardless of what is best for America. I am afraid that our politicians are afraid to feel their wrath, and to avoid bloodshed in the streets, and massive boycotts of products and services, they do nothing. Or, as I have stated before, maybe Americans simply admire Latinos, and are willing to sacrifice everything as long as they are assured Latinos will take over America.”
In 1994, 74,987 anchor babies in maternity units cost taxpayers $215 million in Stockton, California. In 2003, 70 percent of the 2,300 babies born in San Joaquin General maternity ward were from illegal aliens. That number has exploded today with over four million illegal aliens residing in California. Nine out of ten babies born in Parkland Hospital in Dallas, Texas stem from unlawful immigrant mothers. The figures for Chicago, New York City, Miami, Houston, Atlanta and other great cities run the same.
The French economist Frederic Bastiat said, “The unseen is more expensive than the seen.” In Stockton, California, the Silverio Family was featured in the Wall Street Journal in 2003. They were fruit pickers who arrived illegally from Oxtotilan, Mexico in 1997. The wife, Felipa had three kids, but popped an anchor baby named Flor. The child was premature and spent three months in a neonatal incubator at a cost to the San Joaquin Hospital of over $300,000.00. They conceived another, Christian. The second baby made them eligible for $1,000 per month welfare. Because Flor is disabled, she receives $600.00 monthly for asthma. Although the illegal aliens made $18,000.00 annually picking fruit, they collected $12,000.00 of your tax dollars for their anchor babies. One night the father, Cristobal crashed his van. He had no license or insurance. Taxpayers paid for all hospital bills. That’s why 77 hospitals in Border States were going bankrupt in 2003, but Senator John McCain wrote a rider into the Medicaid Bill for $1.4 billion of your tax dollars. It passed.
Not to finish the spending spree on these anchor babies, the children attend California schools at a cost of $7,000.00 per year over and above what their parents pay in taxes. The cost for all five of their children for one school year exceeds $35,000.00 times 18 years for a grand taxpayer total of $630,000.00. This is only one family. No wonder California is $26 billion in debt.
Additional costs for illegal alien children stem from translators, advocates and middlemen. Medi-Cal in 2003 sponsored 760,000 illegal aliens. Supplemental Security Income is a non-means-treated federal grant of money and food stamps. Be assured that scams and fraud run rampant. Over 500,000 ‘mentally disabled kids’ are on drugs for ADHD and ODD. One lady, Linda Torres was arrested in Bakersfield with $8,500.00 in small bills in her pocket. It was her SSI lump award for her disability, which was heroin addiction.
Just so Americans across the country don’t feel left out, let’s move to Georgia. Net Fiscal Costs of Illegal Immigration for Georgia:
Births of illegal aliens in Georgia cost to taxpayers:
2000-- 5,133 births cost: $13 million
2001-- 9,528 births cost: $23 million
2002—11,188 births cost: $27 million
Additionally, receiving public assistance in 2002 for 25,000 children of illegal aliens cost Georgia taxpayers $42 million annually. Health care costs to Georgia taxpayers for illegal aliens in 2002 featured 64,000 doctor visits which ran Grady Health System into a $63 million deficit.
What is it in your state? This picture is a small window into the massive fraud being perpetrated on your wallet by your congressional leaders. What is your senator or congressman doing about it? The simple answer fulfills French economist Bisbiat’s rule of the unseen. Your congressional reps assist this fraud! They encourage it every day by doing nothing about 2,200 illegal aliens crossing our borders and they have done nothing since 9/11 to deport the estimated 13 million that are already here.
With over three million illegal aliens arriving annually, they birth 300,000 anchor babies in California alone and you pay the maximum. When those legal ‘American’ babies grow to 18, they can ‘chain migrate’ their kin into our country. We’re talking about a crisis SO huge, your children and this country will not survive it.
Support Congressman Nathan Deal’s bill H.B. 1868 to stop anchor babies from tapping into your wallet.

This three minute interview with Adam Schrager on “Your Show” May 4, 2008, NBC Channel 9 News, addresses the ramifications of adding 120 million people to USA in 35 years and six million people to Colorado as to water shortages, air pollution, loss of farmland, energy costs and degradation of quality of life. In the interview, Frosty Wooldridge explains the ramifications of adding 120 million people to the USA in 35 years. He advances new concepts such as a “Colorado Carrying Capacity Policy”; “Colorado Environmental Impact Policy”; “Colorado Water Usage Policy”; “Colorado Sustainable Population Policy”. Nationally, the USA needs a "National Sustainable Population Policy" to determine the carrying capacity of this nation for the short and long term. Wooldridge is available for interviews on radio and TV having interviewed on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and FOX.

Part 1--ANCHOR BABIES: BORN IN THE USA
The Abuse of the Fourteenth Amendment—PART I
By Frosty Wooldridge
U.S. House member Nathan Deal introduced a new bill H.R. 1868 to stop 400,000 babies birthed annually by unlawful migrants to gain instant citizenship. Known as “Jackpot Babies or Anchor Babies”, these children cost U.S. taxpayers billions of dollars annually in medical as well as educational costs K-12. This three part series will give American citizens a mouthful of ashes as to what it costs them and what those anchor babies do to their medical, educational and prison systems.
Helping me with this series, Registered Nurse Stephany Gabbard, long term hospital employee saw this phenomenon up close and personal.
“My commute to work exceeds fifty miles but it gives me time to reflect,” Gabbard said. “It is 1987 and I am an obstetrical nurse working in the crowded San Fernando Valley of California. Tonight I drive to my job in "Labor and Delivery," knowing the scenario before I arrive. Eight other nurses will battle through the night in this very busy obstetrical unit. Our patients are 99 percent pregnant illegal alien women who have broken United States immigration law to birth an American citizen child.
“This will be their families’ entry ticket into the United States. For them, no pesky visa applications and no waiting in line for several years like so many millions that enter this country through the front door. Pregnant Third World women have discovered that the only thing they have to do is cross the U.S.--Mexico border. The Fourteenth Amendment is their ticket.
“It is now seventeen years later and things have worsened. The babies I helped deliver are older teenagers. When they turn 21, they will be eligible to bring their family members from Mexico, Central America and South America, i.e., chain migration on an ever-accelerating spinning wheel. Whole industries have now developed around abusing the Fourteenth Amendment. Pregnant Korean tourists come to the U.S. on travel visas to have their "anchor" babies. Coyotes dealing in human traffic are paid $1,500.00 to $25,000.00 per person to shuttle pregnant illegal aliens across our southern border. Our politicians and elites wink at this blatant law breaking and do nothing. The colonization of our country continues with the cooperation of our government. That means your senator and representative aid this illegal baby invasion. None dare call it treason. Most Americans mistakenly trust their politicians to do the right thing. Congressional members from every state betray that trust daily.”
The Fourteenth Amendment: It's a simple document, a constitutional amendment drafted after the Civil War to assure that newly emancipated black slaves would never be denied citizenship by the States. The drafters had no idea that years later it would be used to make a mockery of our immigration laws. Alan Wall, an American journalist living in Mexico states, "An illegal alien can cross the border, have a baby five
minutes later, and that baby is automatically declared a citizen of the USA automatically.”
The illegal aliens don't have to go through any legal doors. They are exempt from that. They are, in fact, rewarded for disobeying U.S. laws by having their children granted automatic citizenship. In addition, the happy family is entitled to welfare benefits. And, illegal alien parents who have children born in the U.S. are seldom deported. That's why their children are called "anchor babies" - they anchor their families securely in the USA.
It doesn't have to be this way. Most European countries have done away with birthright citizenship because they experienced the same abuses we are seeing. The Irish Supreme Court recently ruled that immigrant parents could be deported even if they have an Irish child. "It was becoming common for ‘single pregnant woman’ to come to Ireland from countries outside the 15-nation EU, most frequently from Nigeria, to claim political asylum," states Shawn Pogatchnik, AP writer. Ireland saw a wave of immigration abuse and promptly put a stop to it. Recently, the Irish voted to end birthright citizenship. Britain and Australia both changed their citizenship laws in the 1980's for the same reasons. If you are born in Switzerland you will not automatically become a Swiss citizen. Why should Americans allow our country to be invaded by people who do not honor allegiance to our laws?
Allegiance is the key word. Senator Jacob Howard, co-author of the citizenship clause of the 14th Amendment, stated in 1866, "Every Person born within the limits of the United States, and subject to their jurisdiction, is by virtue of natural law and national law a citizen of the United States. This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the Government of the United States, but will include every other class of persons."
The Fourteenth Amendment states,"(A) Persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States."
However a proviso limits foreigners who have babies in America. It couldn't be clearer, children of foreigners, aliens or diplomats, who are subject to the jurisdiction of their home country, are ineligible for citizenship. At the time the Fourteenth Amendment was ratified we didn't have immigration laws. One hundred and thirty eight years later we are paying for the misinterpretation of it.
Congress has the power to step in and correct this wrong, but don't hold your breath. There have been several bills dealing with this issue and most have died in committee. Except for a few brave individuals like former House member Tom Tancredo of Colorado and Rep. Goode of Virginia, there isn't enough chutzpah on Capitol Hill to fill a thimble. Where are the Thomas Jefferson's and Ben Franklin's when we need them?
An important case, Hamdi vs Rumsfeld was recently heard by the U.S. Supreme Court. Yaser Hamdi was captured during the Afghanistan war fighting for the Taliban. It was later learned that he had been born in Louisiana to Saudi nationals when his father was employed as a chemical engineer on a work visa. The family subsequently moved back to Saudi Arabia where Hamdi was raised.
Hamdi sued the U.S. government for holding him in a Navy stockade for two years. He demanded full rights of U.S. citizenship since by accident he happened to be born here. The U.S. government wanted Hamdi charged as a non-combatant and denied due process. The U.S. government didn’t raise this issue because he wanted to end birthright citizenship but other groups saw the possibility to finally challenge this fatal flaw in our immigration law that is wrecking havoc on our country.
One such group, Friends of Immigration Law Enforcement, submitted a ‘friend of the court’ or Amicus brief. They asked the Supreme Court to address the issue of whether Hamdi should be considered an American citizen at all, since at the time of his birth his parents were foreign nationals with no fealty to this nation.
The decision came down several years ago and just like the rest of the elite establishment in this country the U.S. Supreme Court ignored the issue of birthright citizenship except for a brief statement by Justices Scalia and Stevens stating Hamdi was a “presumed American citizen.” I
So we live to fight another day. In the meantime the invasion/colonization of our country marches on.

By Frosty Wooldridge
U.S. House member Nathan Deal introduced a new bill H.R. 1868 to stop 400,000 babies birthed annually by unlawful migrants to gain instant citizenship. Known as “Jackpot Babies or Anchor Babies”, these children cost U.S. taxpayers billions of dollars annually in medical as well as educational costs K-12. This three part series will give American citizens a mouthful of ashes as to what it costs them and what those anchor babies do to their medical, educational and prison systems.
Helping me with this series, Registered Nurse Stephany Gabbard, long term hospital employee saw this phenomenon up close and personal.
“My commute to work exceeds fifty miles but it gives me time to reflect,” Gabbard said. “It is 1987 and I am an obstetrical nurse working in the crowded San Fernando Valley of California. Tonight I drive to my job in "Labor and Delivery," knowing the scenario before I arrive. Eight other nurses will battle through the night in this very busy obstetrical unit. Our patients are 99 percent pregnant illegal alien women who have broken United States immigration law to birth an American citizen child.
“This will be their families’ entry ticket into the United States. For them, no pesky visa applications and no waiting in line for several years like so many millions that enter this country through the front door. Pregnant Third World women have discovered that the only thing they have to do is cross the U.S.--Mexico border. The Fourteenth Amendment is their ticket.
“It is now seventeen years later and things have worsened. The babies I helped deliver are older teenagers. When they turn 21, they will be eligible to bring their family members from Mexico, Central America and South America, i.e., chain migration on an ever-accelerating spinning wheel. Whole industries have now developed around abusing the Fourteenth Amendment. Pregnant Korean tourists come to the U.S. on travel visas to have their "anchor" babies. Coyotes dealing in human traffic are paid $1,500.00 to $25,000.00 per person to shuttle pregnant illegal aliens across our southern border. Our politicians and elites wink at this blatant law breaking and do nothing. The colonization of our country continues with the cooperation of our government. That means your senator and representative aid this illegal baby invasion. None dare call it treason. Most Americans mistakenly trust their politicians to do the right thing. Congressional members from every state betray that trust daily.”
The Fourteenth Amendment: It's a simple document, a constitutional amendment drafted after the Civil War to assure that newly emancipated black slaves would never be denied citizenship by the States. The drafters had no idea that years later it would be used to make a mockery of our immigration laws. Alan Wall, an American journalist living in Mexico states, "An illegal alien can cross the border, have a baby five
minutes later, and that baby is automatically declared a citizen of the USA automatically.”
The illegal aliens don't have to go through any legal doors. They are exempt from that. They are, in fact, rewarded for disobeying U.S. laws by having their children granted automatic citizenship. In addition, the happy family is entitled to welfare benefits. And, illegal alien parents who have children born in the U.S. are seldom deported. That's why their children are called "anchor babies" - they anchor their families securely in the USA.
It doesn't have to be this way. Most European countries have done away with birthright citizenship because they experienced the same abuses we are seeing. The Irish Supreme Court recently ruled that immigrant parents could be deported even if they have an Irish child. "It was becoming common for ‘single pregnant woman’ to come to Ireland from countries outside the 15-nation EU, most frequently from Nigeria, to claim political asylum," states Shawn Pogatchnik, AP writer. Ireland saw a wave of immigration abuse and promptly put a stop to it. Recently, the Irish voted to end birthright citizenship. Britain and Australia both changed their citizenship laws in the 1980's for the same reasons. If you are born in Switzerland you will not automatically become a Swiss citizen. Why should Americans allow our country to be invaded by people who do not honor allegiance to our laws?
Allegiance is the key word. Senator Jacob Howard, co-author of the citizenship clause of the 14th Amendment, stated in 1866, "Every Person born within the limits of the United States, and subject to their jurisdiction, is by virtue of natural law and national law a citizen of the United States. This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the Government of the United States, but will include every other class of persons."
The Fourteenth Amendment states,"(A) Persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States."
However a proviso limits foreigners who have babies in America. It couldn't be clearer, children of foreigners, aliens or diplomats, who are subject to the jurisdiction of their home country, are ineligible for citizenship. At the time the Fourteenth Amendment was ratified we didn't have immigration laws. One hundred and thirty eight years later we are paying for the misinterpretation of it.
Congress has the power to step in and correct this wrong, but don't hold your breath. There have been several bills dealing with this issue and most have died in committee. Except for a few brave individuals like former House member Tom Tancredo of Colorado and Rep. Goode of Virginia, there isn't enough chutzpah on Capitol Hill to fill a thimble. Where are the Thomas Jefferson's and Ben Franklin's when we need them?
An important case, Hamdi vs Rumsfeld was recently heard by the U.S. Supreme Court. Yaser Hamdi was captured during the Afghanistan war fighting for the Taliban. It was later learned that he had been born in Louisiana to Saudi nationals when his father was employed as a chemical engineer on a work visa. The family subsequently moved back to Saudi Arabia where Hamdi was raised.
Hamdi sued the U.S. government for holding him in a Navy stockade for two years. He demanded full rights of U.S. citizenship since by accident he happened to be born here. The U.S. government wanted Hamdi charged as a non-combatant and denied due process. The U.S. government didn’t raise this issue because he wanted to end birthright citizenship but other groups saw the possibility to finally challenge this fatal flaw in our immigration law that is wrecking havoc on our country.
One such group, Friends of Immigration Law Enforcement, submitted a ‘friend of the court’ or Amicus brief. They asked the Supreme Court to address the issue of whether Hamdi should be considered an American citizen at all, since at the time of his birth his parents were foreign nationals with no fealty to this nation.
The decision came down several years ago and just like the rest of the elite establishment in this country the U.S. Supreme Court ignored the issue of birthright citizenship except for a brief statement by Justices Scalia and Stevens stating Hamdi was a “presumed American citizen.” I
So we live to fight another day. In the meantime the invasion/colonization of our country marches on.

Anchor Babies: No More U.S. Citizenship
By Frosty Wooldridge
Does it make sense to taxpayers for 400,000 pregnant mothers to break across America’s borders annually—and birth their babies into instant citizenship in the United States? Is it fair for American taxpayers to pay for those births in hospitals via the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA)? Does it stand to reason that taxpayers must then pay for those children to enjoy 13 years of schooling at the expense of our children? Does anyone realize that the costs run into the billions and trillions of dollars over the decades?
Not only do taxpayers support those children, their mothers become part of the welfare ride for those 18 years. Once 18, the child may ‘chain migrate’ an endless numbers of relatives into America.
In an interview with Business Week, director of www.NumbersUSA.com , Rob Beck, said, “The U.S. should pass H.R. 1868—the Birthright Citizenship Act of 2009—so all babies born on U.S. soil are no longer automatically made citizens.
“Maternity tourism is just the beginning of the silliness of birthright citizenship that goes to the babies of foreign students, temporary foreign workers, international travelers—and the millions who break the law to criminally enter this country.”
With an astounding 400,000 anchor babies or “Jackpot babies” as named by radio talk show host Terry Anderson in Los Angeles, www.theterryandersonshow.com, American taxpayers pay a heavy price for a total misinterpretation of the 14th amendment of our constitution.
“All told, federal law (not the Constitution) gives citizenship to an estimated minimum 400,000 babies each year who don’t have even one parent who is a U.S. citizen or permanent legal immigrant,” Beck said. “This is a huge impediment to efforts to stabilize U.S. population to allow for environmental sustainability. And it is a great incentive for more illegal immigration.
“Each of these babies becomes an anchor who retards deportation of unlawfully present parents—and who eventually will be an anchor for entire families and villages as chain migration leads to the immigration of grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins.
“Birthright citizenship is an antiquated practice that has been abandoned by nearly all wealthy nations and emerging nations (recently India and Indonesia) and by the majority of poor nations.”
First of all, it’s unlawful! Mexico, with strict immigration laws, does not allow any kind of activity such as anchor babies. Second, it creates a whole new subclass of entrenched poverty. Third, it undermines American children in schools as Jackpot babies displace special programs by requiring English as a Second Language, and, it disrupts normal learning for our students. Fourth, it costs billion of dollars that should go toward America’s inner cities and minority poor.
“The Supreme Court has ruled only that the Constitution requires babies of legal immigrants be U.S. citizens,” Beck said. “It is time to join the modern world, pass H.R. 1868 (Birthright Citizenship Act of 2009), and limit citizenship to babies who have at least one parent who is a citizen or legal immigrant.”
Rightfully, four years ago, Ireland became the last country in the European Union that outlawed anchor babies.
Today, America must stop illegal, unlawful, immoral and unjust allowance for anchor babies. We must, as a nation, pass H.R. 1868 in order to make sure those pregnant foreign and unlawful migrant women birth their babies in their own countries to be taken care of by their governments and families.
We must, as a nation, insist on personal accountability, personal responsibility and national accountability. Become a member of www.numbersusa.com and help pass H.R. 1868.

Fourth, it costs billion of dollars that should go toward America’s inner cities and minority poor.
“The Supreme Court has ruled only that the Constitution requires babies of legal immigrants be U.S. citizens,” Beck said. “It is time to join the modern world, pass H.R. 1868 (Birthright Citizenship Act of 2009), and limit citizenship to babies who have at least one parent who is a citizen or legal immigrant.”
Rightfully, four years ago, Ireland became the last country in the European Union that outlawed anchor babies.
Today, America must stop illegal, unlawful, immoral and unjust allowance for anchor babies. We must, as a nation, pass H.R. 1868 in order to make sure those pregnant foreign and unlawful migrant women birth their babies in their own countries to be taken care of by their governments and families.
We must, as a nation, insist on personal accountability, personal responsibility and national accountability. Become a member of www.numbersusa.com and help pass H.R. 1868.

This three minute interview with Adam Schrager on “Your Show” May 4, 2008, NBC Channel 9 News, addresses the ramifications of adding 120 million people to USA in 35 years and six million people to Colorado as to water shortages, air pollution, loss of farmland, energy costs and degradation of quality of life. In the interview, Frosty Wooldridge explains the ramifications of adding 120 million people to the USA in 35 years. He advances new concepts such as a “Colorado Carrying Capacity Policy”; “Colorado Environmental Impact Policy”; “Colorado Water Usage Policy”; “Colorado Sustainable Population Policy”. Nationally, the USA needs a "National Sustainable Population Policy" to determine the carrying capacity of this nation for the short and long term. Wooldridge is available for interviews on radio and TV having interviewed on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and FOX.

LET’S SUSPEND ALL IMMIGRATION INTO USA: NATIONAL MORATORIUM
By Frosty Wooldridge
Immigration continues to wreak havoc on the United States of America. It’s killing our culture, our language and our way of life. Over 2.5 legal and illegal immigrants add themselves to our already overburdened schools, cities, hospitals and infrastructure—annually. No let up in sight!
Let’s change America’s future toward a positive and sustainable society. We do not need another 70 million immigrants added to this country in the next 30 years. Let’s engage a “National Moratorium on all Immigration.” Let’s stop flooding the United States with such huge numbers of people that we cannot sustain our own citizens.
The U.S. government cannot handle any more immigrants, we taxpayers cannot handle them, our environment cannot handle them and our dwindling resources cannot handle them.
Here’s the exciting news and you can see it on the videos at www.numbersusa.com with Roy Beck. Mr. Beck coupled with several other top websites like www.AmericanWorkers.org to change the course of our history. We suffer 15 million unemployed Americans in August 2009 while our government imports an added 138,000 legal immigrants and 100,000 unlawful immigrants in the month of August. Congress will dump another 238,000 again in September into the USA and on and on and on….
An astounding 32.2 million Americans subsist on food stamps today. Our schools cannot cope with immigrant children or their 100 languages. Our kids suffer. Our communities suffer. It’s time for a “time out!”
“I'm excited to tell you that with special designated contributions, NumbersUSA has joined with several other organizations to mount a new ad campaign on national TV,” said Roy Beck of NumbersUSA.com.
You will see this "Elevator Ad" running at various times on nearly every program on CNN and Fox, day and night.”
No. 1: View the ad here.
“We are running this ad to proclaim to the nation the dirty secret that is being protected by nearly all news media and by nearly all politicians.”
The dirty secret that the elites don't want the American people to know is: The federal government is continuing to import foreign workers into this country despite 15 million workers already being unemployed.
No. 2: IT IS TIME TO SUSPEND MOST IMMIGRATION.
“If that sounds too radical to you, please read my blog calling for an Immigration Suspension Bill,” Beck said. “I talk about the fact that even our allies in Congress are too timid to introduce a bill that should be mandated by the current Jobs Depression. Please read my suggestions for action in using the TV ads and faxes to apply pressure on all Members of Congress to stop all immigration except U.S. citizens' spouses and minor children, and special-needs refugees, until unemployment is low again.”
No. 3: Watch my video blog for this week.
“Some people say they like getting their marching orders in person,” said Beck. “So, come into my office on the banks of the Potomac and let me describe to you our action needs of the week.”
No. 4: Go to your personalized Action Buffet and avail yourself of as many actions as you can take.
“There is so much pressure needed to focus your Senators and U.S. Representative on the immigration issues and what needs to be done,” said Beck. “Our Action Buffet Team has added a number of new actions this week. Joe Jenkins sent you some alerts later in the day. Before midnight, you had already sent 98,000 faxes to Congress!!!”
Dear readers, become one of 1.1 million members of www.NumbersUSA.com and swell our ranks to get this immigration stopped. If ever you joined an All-American effort, and for free—this is your moment in history. Action, action, action! It is SO easy to fax the pre-written letters to your Congress-critters.
No. 5: NOTICE THE NEW DESIGN OF YOUR ACTION BUFFET CORKBOARD.
“You will see the corkboard surrounded by some new tabs that are part of our brand new Local Power initiative on our website,” said Beck. “After you have taken actions, please click around on this revised web page and see the new features. Especially note the convenient page that shows all three or your Members of Congress, with grades, discussions, contact info and a Tip Line for you to use.”
MAKE SURE YOU ARE CHECKING OUT ALL TOWN HALL OPPORTUNITIES.
“The links to the Town Hall meetings are listed under the photo of each Member of Congress on your My Three Congress members page,” Beck said. And, as always, keep coming back to the NumbersUSA home page every day to keep up with the latest in immigration news, views, videos and actions.”
I urge you to take it to them! Tell all your friends about this website. Non-partisan! This website represents every American citizen! Give Beck your best and let’s move together in such huge numbers that our Congress must pay attention. No gripe, no complain, no whine, no bellyache, no bleating, no grumbling, no nitpicking, no nagging or crying!
Action speaks louder than words! This is your moment in history to make a difference for your family, your community and your nation. Let’s get www.numbersusa.com up to 2.0 million members and more before Congress dumps another amnesty on us!
