Progressive Kevin Foley has finally acknowledged that despite his repeated proclamations that this writer was inaccurate on the matter, Obama\u2019s DREAM Act amnesty of June 15 was not an Executive Order.<\/p>\n<p>He says the media made him get it wrong. (see Foley\u2019s latest entry on <a href=\"http:\/\/mdjonline.com\/bookmark\/19208167\/blog%20entry-Somebody%20tell%20Kevin%20Foley-%20It%20wasn\u2019t%20an%20Executive%20Order%20-%20remaining%20silent%20and%20being%20thought%20a%20fool%20is%20better%20than%20jerking%20a%20knee%20and%20using%20a%20keyboard%20to%20remove%20all%20doubt\u2026\">my latest MDJ column<\/a> comments)Would somebody please tell Kevin Foley the message and topic in my column was that the Cobb BOC should protect jobs and American\u2019s Social Security numbers by using the IMAGE certification tool requirement for public contractors?<\/p>\n<p>Somebody please tell Foley that the media seldom gets it right or complete on illegal immigration?<\/p>\n<p>Foley even included part of an apology in his admission. But he couldn\u2019t help going on to give us further insight into the way his leftist mind functions. In the same comment in which he is admitting he simply accepted media reports even after being told multiple times that the reports were wrong, he feels compelled to insert this little gem: \u201cI think silence in the face of the far right misinformation tsunami (see my MDJ column tomorrow) is antithetical to democracy, especially in Cobb where the MDJ is pretty much the only large public forum.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMisinformation tsunami\u201d indeed. What a case this guy is.<\/p>\n<p>And while we are here, can somebody clue-in liberal Foley on the fact that the United States of America is not, never has been and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=the us is not a democracy&#038;sourceid=ie7&#038;rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&#038;ie=&#038;oe\">was never intended to be a \u201cDemocracy<\/a>?\u201d  <\/p>\n<p>Foley assured us that he will do better on fact checking in the future. Then, being the arrogant sort, went on to warn me to \u201cYou should be sure you do the same.\u201d Yawn. Somebody please tell Foley he can read<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedustininmansociety.org\/articles\/news.html\"> every newspaper column I have ever written <\/a>over the last decade and that he is welcome to use the vast superior intellect he still believes he possesses to find inaccuracies in them?<\/p>\n<p>Foley closes his admission and apology with \u201c(I hope you and your followers note I didn&#8217;t have to revert to sophomoric name-calling to make my point. Would you had that skill.)\u201d<\/p>\n<p>How rich. How hilarious.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s be clear: The first time someone pointed out Foley\u2019s existence was when he assured blog readers that he was an expert at public relations: \u201cI have worked in public relations for most of my 35-year career. That&#8217;s another way of saying I work with words. In my business, the right words can influence, motivate and even inspire. The wrong words can alienate, anger and hurt. When I work with clients, I always advise them to take the high road. Tell your audience what is right with your brand, not what&#8217;s wrong with your competition&#8217;s.\u201d This on his way to suggesting that I end any reference to illegal aliens by describing them as \u201cillegal aliens.\u201d \u201cSo here&#8217;s a bit of PR advice for Mr. King: Make your argument, sir, but please take the high road.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Over the last ten years, it was about the 100th time I had read this parroted variation on the constant ridiculous liberal effort to redefine the English language so as to redefine the fact that illegal aliens are illegal. And, while I seldom do, I said as much in<a href=\"http:\/\/mdjonline.com\/bookmark\/18232999\/blog%20entry-Mr-%20Foley-%20Please%20take%20the%20road%20to%20reality-%20-%20In%20which%20we%20are%20once%20again%20reminded%20that%20words%20have%20meaning%20and%20illegal%20aliens%20are%20illegal%20aliens-\"> a reply<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSophomoric name-calling?\u201d \u201cTake the high road?\u201d Oy Vey.<\/p>\n<p>Having spent far too much time reading Foley\u2019s past columns, blog entries and his ever-present comments on the same in the last couple of days, I see that Foley the arrogant liberal wasn\u2019t at all happy with my response to his call from the mountain-top to use ACLU\/La Raza invented, PC terms and refer to illegal aliens as \u201cundocumented workers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While apparently incensed enough to go ahead and attack the Cobb community in general, Foley\u2019s high road, \u201cmotivational and inspiring\u201d words in response to being rejected went like this: \u201cHe responded to my well-mannered suggestions with a smug, condescending justification of his brand of racial prejudice. Yes, Mr. King, it&#8217;s racial. You can stop pretending now. Along with Jan Brewer and Joe Arpaio, you&#8217;ve simply found a way to camouflage your bias against Latinos and Hispanics by wrapping yourself in the American flag and crying &#8220;our laws are being broken!&#8221;. And like a lot of demagogues you&#8217;re even somewhat famous hereabouts, where it&#8217;s not terribly difficult to find other bigoted bullies who&#8217;ll line up with you. Haven&#8217;t we seen this movie before? It used to be &#8220;uppity Negros&#8221; who &#8220;didn&#8217;t know their place&#8221; in the old Jim Crow era; burning Freedom Rider buses, poll taxes, and Bull Connor&#8217;s attack dogs. Now it&#8217;s undocumented workers, most of whom find themselves employed and often exploited by American business owners, doing the dirty jobs none of us want to do: Cleaning toilets, washing dishes, gutting chickens, digging holes. And D.A. King adds to their misery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Got that folks? You can read <a href=\"http:\/\/mdjonline.com\/bookmark\/18382044\/blog%20entry-D-A-%20King-s%20Bully%20Pulpit\">the entire MDJ blog <\/a>from angry Kevin Foley.<\/p>\n<p>Golly, how surprising. A pro-amnesty, liberal empty-suit who anxiously believes what the liberal media tells him \u2013 and doesn\u2019t tell him &#8211; on illegal immigration and illegal employment spewing \u201cracist\u201d at anyone who demands that immigration laws be enforced. How unusual, ehh? See what I mean by argument-free, mindless liberal race-baiter?<\/p>\n<p>I will happily pass Foley\u2019s hateful name-calling on to the members of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedustininmansociety.org\/\">the Board of Advisors of the Dustin Inman Society<\/a>. Including the proud Latino and Black American members.<\/p>\n<p>Progressive Kevin Foley should get accustomed to retractions, corrections and apologies.
