. . . Five hints:
* He’s fat.
* He’s originally from Michigan and still claims to live here.
* His “blue collar bonhomie” is bunk. (Credit to Detroit Free Press film critic Terry Lawson for help with that phrase.)
* He said 9/11 happened because America’s White men are wimps, but that Black men would have kicked the asses of the hijackers.
* My favorite depiction of him was in “” (pictured below).
I you guessed correctly, then you guessed him . . .

Yup, the most famous White male fattie in America will be on the most famous minority female fattie’s show to promote his new movie, “Sicko,” which attacks the state of healthcare in America.
Just ask the many people who’ve worked for Michael Moore–and whom he refused to pay minimum wage, overtime, and basic benefits–what kind of healthcare he gave them. Waiting for the “documentary” on that.
I was among the first to when it debuted in 2004 and debated (and whipped the butt of) Michael Moore at that time.
I figure this movie, “Sicko,” is of equal high-quality fiction. But I could be wrong: I do, after all, despise HMOs and believe we should return to the capitalist, free market model of medicine, where you pay out of pocket directly to your doctor and pharmacist and cut out the paper-pushing middle men (who are engaged in a normally illegal, industry-wide price fixing scheme in severe violation of anti-trust laws, with full government aproval).

. . .–the Islamic Society of North America–has been named as an unindicted Co-Conspirator in illegally funding HAMAS terrorism (in the criminal prosecution of Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development officials), does this mean that President Bush’s good buddy and Assistant Secretary of State for Islamist Ass-Kissing, , will quit ?
Just asking. But I think I already know the answer. Which is, unfortunately, a big fat “NO.”

Three cheers for Robert Rector, Senior Research Fellow at the Heritage Foundation. He’s done a great job researching and pinpointing the extra costs that illegal aliens–and yes, LEGAL aliens–add to America’s tax burden.
But, because he dared do so, he earned the jeers of the pan-alienist Wall Street Journal editorial board, who attacked him on their pages. But Rector responded in a great letter to the editor in Friday’s paper, which I republish below. It’s chock full of important and painful facts:

Low-Skill Immigrants: My Research Is Valid
June 1, 2007; Page A11

Your May 24 editorial “Immigration and Welfare” attacks my research on the fiscal costs of low skill immigration as perpetuating a “myth.” Roughly one-third of immigrant households are now headed by immigrants without a high-school degree. My research, based on Census data and other government sources, shows these “low-skill immigrant” households receive, on average, $30,160 per year in government benefits while paying $10,573 in taxes. Thus each such household costs the taxpayer $19,588 per year. Overall, the net cost to U.S. taxpayers is $89 billion per year. My report suggests that the country would benefit fiscally by having fewer low-skill immigrants, who are net tax consumers, and more well-educated immigrants who are net tax payers.
Rather than rebut my contention that low-skill immigrants are a fiscal drag, your editorial presents statistics about how much all immigrants, including college graduates, pay in taxes. Far from refuting my study, this tactic is either misleading or, at best, irrelevant. It certainly does not demonstrate that low-skill immigrants pay more in taxes than they take in benefits.
The editorial also asserts that low-skill immigrants do not receive large amounts of means-tested welfare assistance. Immigrants do have limited eligibility for welfare, which is why my report counts the welfare received by immigrant households based on the immigrants’ self-report of welfare receipt to the Census Bureau. If an immigrant household states it got Food Stamps, it is counted as receiving Food Stamps. It is that simple.
As my report explicitly states, this procedure “automatically adjusts for the low use of government benefits by …immigrants,” due to eligibility limits. Unless immigrants are over-reporting their own welfare benefits, one finds that low skill immigrant households receive about $10,000 per year in means-tested welfare throughout their lifetimes. This figure does not include other major benefits such as public education, Social Security, and Medicare.

And for a primer on why this immigration amnesty bill is a disaster for America and it’s national security, read these two columns (here and here) from the New York Post by my friend, Kris Kobach. Kris is the lawyer for those suing to stop illegal aliens from getting in-state tuition. And he is also the attorney for the City of Hazleton, Pennsylvania, as it fights the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, illegal aliens, and other malefactors in trying to keep it’s anti-illegal alien laws intact:
* “Rx For Breakdown: How Immigration Bill Overloads Bureaucracy & Endangers Security”
* “Rewarding Lawbreakers”
Kris was the personal counselor to John Ashcroft, when he was Attorney General. Since (NOT for the reasons the liberals hate him), I won’t hold that against Kris, who is a brilliant and articulate scholar and legal authority. Plus, he called me in consultation for the “Rx for Breakdown” column.
FYI, Kris was one of the applicants to become Assistant Secretary for Homeland Security in charge of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)–the job got (and for which, she chose herself). Too bad, he wasn’t the chosen one. Things would be different.

Of all the information coming out of the JFK Islamic terrorist plot, one of the things people seem most shocked about is that the plotters were Muslims from Guyana and that they had ties to Muslim terrorist groups, like Jamaat al Muslimeen (JAM) in Trinidad and Tobago.
Don’t be surprised. The fact is that both Guyana and Trinidad and Tobago have Muslim populations between 10% and 15% and growing. And they are anything but moderate. Guyana, in South America, may not have been the same since Jim Jones, but the larger threat there is the growing influence of the “Religion of Peace.” The large Muslim populations throughout the Caribbean and South America are perhaps even more dangerous than Communist beachheads on our hemisphere ever were (though the Communists, like Nicaragua’s Daniel Ortega, work with and enable Islamic terrorists and extremism).

That brings me to the question of . In September 2003, after I wrote about a planned FBI award (later revoked) to in (and spoke about it on the Howard Stern radio show), I received a death threat from Robert Mustaq John, a Muslim whom I’m now told is from the Islands of Trinidad and Tobago. He sent me photos of Daniel Pearl in mid-beheading and wrote that I–he called me, “Jewgirl”–would be next. “KILL ALL KIKES,” he also wrote–in blood red capital letters.
Despite my immediate complaint to the FBI, the FBI simply didn’t care. Neither did the Department of Justice and its local bloated sachem, (a Bush Court of Appeals nominee)–who refused to touch the case, lest he anger his Islamist cronies (which include “former” Islamic terrorist Hamad). Although the FBI “investigation” of Robert Mustaq John first uncovered that he was a woman (that’s Famous But Incompetent, for ya), they soon discovered that John was an illegal alien living with his sister in Brooklyn. They told me that John is a Muslim from Jamaica. I’ve since learned he’s from Trinidad and Tobago.
But neither the FBI or the Justice Department has cared enough to look into this man. How did he get here illegally (I’m told he’s now applied for citizenship–a great model for “Z” Visa candidacy)? At which mosque does he pray? Where did he learn his hate for “Kikes” like me and support for beheading us like Daniel Pearl was? Was it at his mosque? Was it at a mosque in Trinidad and Tobago? Who are his cohorts in Brooklyn?
The FBI asked none of these questions and did virtually no investigation into Robert Mustaq John. Instead, they and the Justice Department harassed me. They also pressured me to drop the case, telling me John didn’t really mean it, and sent it to a circular file. , which is still ongoing, almost four years later.
Instead of putting heat on Mr. John or doing a tiny amount of investigating into this extremist on our soil direct from the Islands, Mr. John was given a sweetheart deal (all Muslims are sweethearts at the DoJ): He got to plead guilty to a Misdemeanor (which may spare him deportation).
And because it’s such an important case, John’s plea appearance was delayed because no-one cared to notify his attorney and his sentencing date has been delayed for a similar reason.
So, you wonder why people like Russell Defreitas and Abdul Kadeer get to be in this country, even get citizenship, and plot terror? The FBI isn’t watching enough. And simply doesn’t care enough.
How many Robert Mustaq Johns and Russell Defreitases are there? We’ll never know. Because the “leadership” at our federal law enforcement agenices are AWOL most of the time.

**** SCROLL DOWN FOR UPDATE ****
While everyone else is focusing on what Paris Hilton wore to prison today, I mark the anniversary of something far more important: Today is the 65th anniversary of the start of the Battle of Midway, one of the most important World War II battles.
On June 4th, 1942, the Battle of Midway–in which the U.S. (wounded and limping from the Pearl Harbor attack 6 months earlier) confronted Japanese ships advancing on the Pacific toll of Midway–began. Midway is 1,300 miles northwest of Honolulu.

Battle of Midway:
Japanese Attacked U.S.S. Yorktown, Sand Island Oil Tanks & Hangar
It was a pivotal win, without which we might have lost to the Japanese. We Americans were the underdogs, but like the Maccabees, our American soldiers cleaned the clocks of the Japanese. During the three-day battle–which changed the course of World War II–American lost one aircraft carrier, 145 planes, and 307 men. But Japan lost 4 aircraft carriers, a heavy cruiser, three destroyers, 291 planes, and 4,800 men. Yes, David beat Goliath by the battle’s end.
Not only was it shortly after the Pearl Harbor attack, but the battle also followed a number of U.S. and British defeats and setbacks in the Pacific. Japanese ousted the U.S. from Wake Island, Guam, and the Philippines and Britain from Singapore. The U.S. used Midway as a patrol plane base, and Japan used the battle in an attempt to destroy our Pacific Fleet.
Fortunately, they were defeated, by our resourceful troops, who enlisted codebreaking, smart moves, and sheer grit and determination. We intercepted Japanese coded messages, decoded them, and took advantage in the battle.
Some of our victory cannot be anything other than miraculous (it is sometimes referred to as “The Miracle at Midway”). Aside from our luck in intercepting Japanese messages, the U.S.S. Yorktown was hit by three Japanese bombs 65 years ago, today. It was severely damaged just a few weeks before in the Battle of the Coral Sea, and had a hasty patch-up job. But we won the battle, despite that.
And it was a turning point. After that victory, the Japanese never recovered, the U.S. denied the Japanese access to Guadalcanal, and we retook Guam.
Sadly, most of the survivors of the Battle of Midway have passed away. But a few–in their ’80s and ’90s–are still alive and will visit the islands of Midway (which include Sand Island), today. One of those survivors is George Chockley, 87, who was a petty officer on the USS Enterprise.
AP quotes Chockley:

I was just a young kid. I didn’t have sense enough to be afraid.

And thank Heaven for that. We owe Chockley and his fellow Battle of Midway veterans a huge debt of gratitude.
Paris Hilton isn’t good enough to wash their feet.

**** UPDATE: Reader Ted K. writes:

Debbie,
I had forgotten about the anniversary of the battle. This past weekend, I went to the WWII weekend in Reading, PA where we met true American WWII heroes such as the paratroopers from the 506th PIR, flying aces such as the Tuskegee Airmen, and many others.
It is also a re-enactors weekend where they get together showing us how these men trained and lived while fighting the war that saved us from the tyranny of the Axis powers.
It simply amazes me that God put on earth men and women who helped us win some many battles and the war. It’s so interesting that a simple un-coded message “AF is having problem with their water condensers (paraphrased)” enabled the men of the Pacific fleet to know the Japanese were coming.
I don’t know whether we knew it at the time, but the destruction of the 4 carriers + loss of experienced Japanese pilots was the turning point. This is because the way the Japanese trained their pilots led to their ultimate loss. Our training program put pilots in the air in less than 6 months, whereas the Japanese method took nearly 2 years. So, when they lost all of those pilots, we gained the advantage.
This coupled with our manufacturing capabilities to produce a nearly endless supply of superior aircraft (bullet proof cockpits & self sealing gas tanks, for example) were also key contributors.
I could go on and on (I’m a history buff) of how this country worked during the darkest days, is a tribute to all the men and women of that era.
I recently found out that that my great uncle was a navy man who participated in the invasion of Normandy as a radio operator for an LCI.
I wish we had more of this today. I wish people could understand that we need to fight this war in the far flung areas of the world. I don’t want to have to worry I’m going be vaporized when I’m shopping in the mall.
Keep up the great work,
Cheers,

Whenever an Islamic terrorist plot against America–by Muslims on our soil–is uncovered, we are often told by the media and government mouthpieces that discovering and stopping the plot was a result of Muslim outreach. We’re told that government and law enforcement officials kissing the rears of the most extremist Muslims has yielded valuable fruit: the saving of American lives. Some noble Muslim–as a result of government-sanctioned ankle-grasping–did the right thing and called the FBI.

JFK Islamic Terrorism Plotters Russell Defreitas, Abdul Kadir
But here’s a reality check: the stories and the statements are a lie. Take the JFK plot, disclosed to the public over the weekend. It turns out the sole confidential informant (CI) in the case is not a “noble Muslim” who is a “loyal American.” Nope. His only patriotism is to himself. He’s a twice-convicted drug dealer who did this for a more lenient sentence and for the money he got paid as an informant. There’s nothing noble or patriotic about it. And that’s the case for virtually all the cases involving Muslim CIs. They aren’t doing this out of any loyalty to America. Their community has none–as we saw from the recent .
But don’t let that little fact–that little truth–get in the way of mainstream press reporting, eager to gush over Muslim Americans and their “loyalty” and “patriotism.”
Exhibit A: ABC News. Last night on its evening newscast, ABC News Anchor Jon Berman and reporter Gigi Stone reported (video on upper right hand corner) that three years of outreach to the Muslim community by New York Police sachem Ray Kelly and his New York Police Department yielded the uncovering of the JFK plot. We were shown photos of Kelly embracing and shaking hands with radical Ahmed Jamil, President of the Dar Al-Dawah Mosque. Then, in the report Jamil told us how important outreach to his community is in stopping the terror attacks. We heard from Kelly and FBI spokesman (and former ABC News reporter and Bin Laden glorifier) John Miller, with clips that said nothing of the sort, but were used to imply that they share the same views as Stone and Berman.
But, again, reality check: The informant became an informant not because of any pandering “outreach,” not out of any new-found patriotism. He did it for two reasons and two reasons only: a lighter sentence and money.
He may be dead, but lives on at ABC.
Contrary to Ms. Stone’s propaganda-in-reporting, no-one from the Dar Al-Dawah Mosque was involved in uncovering this plot or any other. No-one from the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR)–which continues to denounce FBI and other law enforcement in the uncovering of these plots–helped.
Until and unless the vast majority of their community is convicted of a crime and looking to get a reduction in sentence–and to get paid while they’re at it–Muslims in America simply won’t help us to fight terrorism. They will only silently cheer it on and condemn the informants and law enforcement. As the Pew Research study showed us, and Americans . . . when they take over.
The facts are simple: Almost all of the Muslim informants in major terrorism cases are criminals and others similarly down on their luck.
Not one is a Muslim who simply loves this country and wants to stop the killing of Americans.
And given that–despite FBI, ICE, and NYPD ass-kissing of their community–they still look down at and persecute informants who tell on other Muslims, don’t look for that to change one bit.

If you are a salmon connoisseur and afficionado like me, then you know that we are right in the middle of Copper River Salmon season, which lasts only about 3-4 weeks. This year, it started around May 14th.
Copper River Salmon is the best tasting salmon there is. And it’s not from Norway or anywhere foreign. It’s from Alaska’s Copper River. The salmon must swim upstream 300 miles on the Copper River to spawn in Prince William Sound near the town of Cordova. To be tough enough to make it that far, they develop a special fat that helps them. That makes Copper River Salmon the tastiest that there is, if you cook it correctly and get the right cut, taken from the leanest part of the fish.

Copper River Salmon
And it’s healthier than most salmon you see these days because it’s wild, not the unhealthy farm-raised variety that seems to dominate. It’s pricey, at $39.50 per pound, but well worth the taste for a once a year gourmet delicacy. Or you can order it at your local fish eatery.
The best Copper River Salmon is cooked with a lot of butter. But check out a recipe for Grilled Cooper River Salmon. And here’s one I have in my recipe collection for Maple Bourbon Copper River Salmon (never tried it and it sounds like it smothers the taste of the salmon with too many flavors, but ya never know . . .):


Read the Wall Street Journal’s take and renowned Chef Tom Colicchio’s recipe for Copper River Salmon (this one uses the butter needed).
More info about Copper River Salmon, here and here.
Authentic Copper River Salmon has a seal like this . . .

What’s the number one priority of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)–immigration enforcement and investigation of money laundering . . . or responding to Debbie Schlussel?
Unfortunately, for American taxpayers and national security, it appears to be the latter.
Remember the that was put in place to cover up ICE news and developments reported on my site? Well, it looks like ICE PoRN has sprung into action–beyond silly e-mails, memos, and task forces.

Marcy “Black Ass” Forman-Friedman a/k/a “Peppermint Patty”:
Chieftess of ICE Anti-Schlussel Task Force
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in the know tell me that ICE Director of Investigations Marcy Forman-Friedman a/k/a will be spending the summer on your tax dime, traveling the country to hold “Town Hall” meetings for ICE agents in every Special Agent in Charge office in the nation in order to “quell rumors”–ie., provide disinformation.
Peppermint Patty is the boss of all ICE Special Agents in Charge (including her pet, Michigan/Ohio SAIC and friend of Islamic terrorists, If there is an investigation into illegal alien smuggling or marriage fraud, she’s the ultimate boss on it.
Don’t worry. I have my ear to the ground, and I’ll be employing my own truth squad to respond to any untruths–and I’m sure there will be many–that Peppermint Patty tells at these meetings. But I’ll need your help, if you are an ICE agent: Please send me e-mails about what she’s saying.
I’m veeeeery interested. And I’m especially curious why a Dirctor of Investigations for the nation’s immigration enforcement arm isn’t concerned much with immigration enforcement.
Morale is at an all-time low at the agency. Lying and covering up reality won’t change that. When you tow the company line too much, sometimes the line stretches and breaks.

This weekend is a liberal’s dream at the box office . . . just like most other weeks. You have your pick of a Title IX/Manhating 101 for Girls flisk, Al-Qaeda’s fave horror flick, a tasteless movie about getting a girl pregnant, and a mish-mosh graphic murder thriller:
* “Knocked Up“–A loser stoner who lives with his loser stoner friends gets a beautiful anchor for “E! Television” (Katherine Heigl) pregnant after a one-night stand between the total strangers. She decides to have the baby and lives with her annoying, high-pitched voice, shrewish sister and her wimpy, girlie-man husband.

If Hollywood wanted you to be pro-choice and get abortions, this movie will do the trick (it’s so bad, it almost converted me). The film is truly tasteless, completely disgusting, and not funny. Sure, I laughed a few times, but not much–unlike the idiotic laugh-track audience with whom I watched it. Mostly, it’s just depraved, stupid, and lame. You don’t need to be a prude–I’m not one–to hate this.
I’m sure America will reward it’s obnoxious lines, plot, and loser characters with a number one box office slot when the weekend is up. Wonder why we’re losing the cultural war? Low-class celluloid displays like this and the constant pimping of them on America. That’s why. It figures that all the self-styled, high class movie critics around the country loved this piece of garbage.
They’re the movie critics who wear no clothing, reviewing the movie that wears no diapers. But sorely needs them.
And then, there’s the self-hating Jew angle. Writer/Director Judd Apatow, unfortunately a Jew, makes this loser stoner idiot character–and all of his fellow loser stoner porn-addicted friends (except one)–Jewish. The main character is a walking, talking stereotype–a fat, ugly, frizzy-haired annoyance, as is his stoner, thrice-married father. And Apatow puts the Jewish thing in your face, as if it has anything to do with the “plot” (if you can call what’s in this trash, a “plot”). It doesn’t.
If a non-Jew had made this movie with this kind of stereotypical Jewish angle, we’d be screaming anti-Semitism, which is what this self-hating Jew crap is. (And you’d think if the characters were Jews, they could get the Jew thing right. They don’t–all of the guys praise Abu Spielberg’s Islamic propaganda film, “.” Hello . . . ?)
But then, again, the entire movie is crap. Like I said, the movie is more in need of a diaper than the baby that gets born in the end of this one.
* “Mr. Brooks“–This one is the best release, this weekend. And the most entertaining. But that’s not saying much. This thriller about a psychotic serial killer is so messy, with so many plots, so many unbelievable twists, so much excess, it’s hard to believe. The murder scenes are bloody and coupled with graphic sex scenes–both things always employed about by a weak script, weak plot, and weak movie overall.
Kevin Costner realizes he’s aging and failing at the box office as a wholesome romantic lead, these days, including with his silly, “.” So, he’s decided to branch out of wholesome and play the wicked and insane.
Costner plays a wealthy Northwest philanthropist and entrepreuner, who is also secretly a serial killer with an alter ego. Think “American Psycho” or “The Talented Mr. Ripley” all grown up, still wealthy and still getting away with shedding innocent blood for sport, only this time you get to see his imaginary friend. William Hurt plays the killer’s alter ego, the one who spurs his killing addiction. And that makes the movie interesting and different. It’s sort of like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
Meanwhile, Demi Moore plays a multi-millionaire police detective who investigates the “thumbprint killer” (Costner). She’s going through a nasty divorce from a man who wants all her money (which is irrelevant and useless to the plot).
Then, there’s the way-overrated, unfunny Dane Cook, playing a peeping Tom who sees and photographs Costner in the midst of one of his killing sprees. He blackmails Costner into take him on one of his murders in exchange for staying mum. Then, there’s Costner’s college dropout daughter who is pregnant and has inherited a disturbing family gene.
Sound like too much for you? You can follow it and it’s entertaining enough. But it’s like a pie with too many flavors and incompatible ingredients thrown under one uneven crust.

* “Gracie“–Teen girl’s soccer-playing brother dies in an accident. Girl wants to take his place on boys high school soccer team. Her whole misogynist family is against her. But she beats down all the mean, evil men, overcoming them in this slow, boring, corny formulaic, dated, feminist sports movie that is anything but Junior Miss Rocky in a Sports Bra. Based on the real-life story of actress Elisabeth Shue, but mostly highly-fictionalized feminist Title IX crap.
* “Jindabyne“–An interesting premise: Four men go on a weekend fishing trip and find a woman dead in the lake. They decide to fish for the whole weekend before finallyl notifying police. Takes place in Australia and the central characters are a troubled marriage of an American wife and Irish hubby, both immigrants.
With the thick accents and quick dialogue, it’s hard to understand what anyone is saying, but for the American. But once you do, you wish you didn’t in this annoying melodrama. Would have been interesting if they followed the one story about the men camping and ignoring the dead body until later. But this movie throws too many Lifetime Movies of the Week themes and racism (the dead body is a Black–ie., Aborigine–woman) into the mix, making it bloated and like a stuffed salami.

* “Severance“–Horror movie brought to you by Al-Qaeda. Simply sickening dismemberment and beheading movie with this message: If you are British and American, especiallly if you work for a defense contractor, you deserve to die a horrible, brutal death for what you, your company, your country allegedly did to others. of this nauseating production, and skip this at all costs. One of the worst, most disgusting movies of the year.

If you’re wondering why Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents aren’t spending all of their efforts and resources on enforcing immigration laws and stopping terrorist money-laundering, look no further than the multi-million dollar treasure discovered and recovered a couple of weeks ago from a colonial era shipwreck in the Atlantic Ocean.
Although a Florida firm, Odyssey Marine Exploration, Inc., took the risk, spent the money, and recovered the 500,000 gold and silver coins, it may not get to keep them. Why?
Well, the Spanish government has filed suit in federal court, claiming the coins. And even had Spain not filed suit, you might have seen ICE agents storming the secret location of the coins, as well as Odyssey’s headquarters seizing the treasure and documents.

As I’ve written, has spent a good amount of ICE time and resources so that she can get invites to places like the Saudi Arabian Embassy. And she’s seized the legitimately gotten gains of Americans to do it.
Last year, the ICE Princess had her agents . The coins were from the 13th Century–an era before there even was a Saudi Arabia. And there is no proof that the coins are connected to the country–only to some non-descript part of the Arab world. Saudi Arabia did not even know the coins existed until a resourceful American tried to sell them on the Net.
And the Saudis never filed suit to establish ownership. Yet, Myers took the coins and gave them to her Saudi buddy, Prince Turki Al-Faisal, an admitted friend of Osama Bin Laden.
Then, there are the after reading about their sale at auction in USA Today. Those eggs were sent to the ChiComms.
Hmmm . . . The Islamist, pan-terrorist Saudis, the Communist Chinese, and pretty soon, Spain. Yup, that’s who far too many of your ICE agents are working for to “recover” property. But enforcing immigration law and stopping money laundering and smuggling, simply not as important.
Those things won’t get The ICE Princess an invitation for tea, falafel, and kefiyeh-garbed diplomacy at the nearest U.S.-hating embassy.
It’s bad enough that ICE agents are losing their Customs mission. Even worse is that playing gopher boy for despotic America-hating governments is the one Customs mission they still get to enforce.
