Results of Freedom of Information Act requests (FOI):                                  November 13, 2007

1.       Parks & Tourism re: monies spent on Spanish language advertising…….the response from Parks & Tourism contained 12 ½ pounds of data, and did not include the specifics hoped for.  I have found through experience that if a large net is not cast the government agencies will obfuscate. 

I will say here, and this applies to the other 3 FOI’s, are works in progress.  The initial response from the P & T Director Richard Davies posed many more questions than answers.  In weighing the data received and the questions posed demands a public forum to address the possibility of state laws being flagrantly violated, conflicts of interest, and ethical violations.

After pouring through the 12 ½ lbs, I found it appropriate to speak to Mr. Davies personally.  I explained to him the data I wanted was absent; namely the amount of money being spent on advertising to Hispanics, the markets targeted, the reasons for their campaign.  I asked Mr. Davies did he not understand that he was in violation of state law by advertising in the Spanish language and well over 51% of his target audience are criminals (illegals)….he did not disagree. 

What was revealed on close examination of the data was that the agencies, with references to  time spent, production costs, test markets, etc. are in the process of increasing dramatically.  The last contract P & T signed called for a $30 million increase in their advertising endeavors. The bottom line conclusion I have reached, this is a not-so-veiled invitation for illegals to come to Arkansas for employment. 

Facts that did come out of the data.

A. In addition to Parks & Tourism, the Arkansas State Police are also involved in Spanish speaking ads. 

B.  Aristotle and Cranford, Johnson are the 2 ad agencies of choice and enjoy a no bid monopoly. Both agencies hire an inordinate number of ex-Arkansas state employees.

C.  It appears the 2 agencies are awarded financial gain from the state and also receive financial remuneration from the distribution of print and broadcast media to Spanish outlets, i.e. Univision, La Latina, etc. (That’s receiving cash, coming and going)

D.  Violation of Ark. State law-- English is our official language, passed in the 80’s, with no apparent means of enforcement, and I feel reasonably sure was done on purpose.

E.  The data points to Andres Chao, Director of the illegal Mexican Consulate, being instrumental in directing much of the dialogue and promotions dealing with Hispanics, through P & T.

This as a direct slap at Arkansas citizens for our state government to have the audacity to spend taxpayer dollars directed mostly at an illegal market, i.e. Mexicans and the corporations who hire—all in violation of U.S.  & Arkansas’ laws.

It’s worth mentioning again that the chit-chat between intra & inter agencies memos is indicative that P & T is committed to spending more of your earnings in what I believe to be absolutely an illegal operation.   Furthermore, there is a nexus between P & T and a number of other government & civil entities, which does not bode well for the citizens of Arkansas.  We will explore these tentacles in a public forum.

The indicators I have pursued demonstrate conclusively that citizens have no active part in the affairs of Arkansas state government due to entrenched career bureaucrats and politicians.  Each of these agencies appear to operate as private fiefdoms.  In all likelihood more FOI’s are on the way.

2.       Sebastian County Sheriff Atkinson re:  his personal part & authority for using taxpayer equipment and personnel to protect 15,000-18,000 illegal Mexicans and the illegal behavior of Collier Wenderoth & Russ Bragg of OK Foods’ 1-3 day affair at Ben Geren County Park.   Also how much taxpayer money was used.

The response from Sheriff Atkinson was a non-response.  His Chief Deputy Tom Young, with a curt reply, “no records exist as requested in items 1-5”.

I called Sebastian County Prosecutor Gunner DeLay and informed him of the response from Atkinson, at which time he suggested I call County Judge Hudson and determine his participation in the affair.  On contacting Judge Hudson, his immediate response was he had no information regarding the 1-3 day OK Food’s affair, but he would get back in touch.  After a few days and some prodding from Prosecutor DeLay, Judge Hudson called and sent a copy of OK Foods check for $1,000 made out to the Judge’s office.

I do not know who paid for the cleanup of the park and Atkinson’s insolence will not go unnoticed.   He too will be on the agenda for the public forum.

3.       Arkansas Children’s Hospital: the cost of its providing a heart transplant to a foreign national, the length of stay, etc. and if Vicente Fox really gave $200,000 toward that endeavor as he bragged on Larry King Live.

Response from Sherry Furr, Chief Counsel of ACH…informed me that ACH is a private, not for Profit Corporation.  Huge revelation.  The 501c3 Corporation, compliments of the Ark. Legislature, is indeed curious.  Furr states that taxpayers only provide a limited amount of public funds.

I called Roger Norman, Chief Accountant for the Legislative Joint Auditing Committee, and he indicated that the ACH was privy to other funding from various taxpayer sources. 

Question:  the ACH is dependent on physicians from the Univ. of Ark. Medical Center, which is far and above the most costly aspect of running a hospital.  Why would the legislature give a state entity (UAMC) and the ACH, which definitely have substantial taxpayer dollars involved, the ability to circumvent the Legislative Joint Auditing Committee and the FOIA? 

As each of these FOI’s show in some depth, government entities through the years, compliments of Governors and legislatures, have conferred shall we say, immunity, put another way made said agencies impervious to public inquiry.

Certainly, questions will be asked why segments of taxpayer supported Univ. of Ark. Agencies are extricated from citizen purview, and why foreign nationals are afforded healthcare not available to U.S. citizens.  To be determined will be the exact amount of funding from hospitals poured into ACH.

4.       Arkansas Dept. of Human Services: the prenatal care costs, numbers, services, etc. given to illegal alien women.  A brief background on the legislation advocating prenatal for illegal Mexican women and OTM’s.  Open borders, cheap labor advocate, former Gov. Mike Huckabee presented a bill to the Ark. State Legislature to confer free prenatal care to illegals.  Bill passed by overwhelming majority.

DHS Director Roy Jeffus estimated the cost per birth would be $1,300.  He predicted the program would cost a maximum of $1.3 million per yr.  So much for the stupidity of Jeffus and the dysfunctional state legislature.  The date of the estimation was April, 2004.  The reality was the start up cost for the program was $4.3 million.  Jeffus and the legislature failed to factor in the cost of prescriptions, transportation, translation, social services, etc. etc. and the cost of the Anchor Babies produced by these nighttime sexual extravaganza’s.  Anchor babies by law can occupy the welfare trough until 21 yrs of age.  

N.W. Arkansas is portrayed as the economic hot spot in the state.  It is interesting to note that with almost zero unemployment, Washington & Benton counties have the largest number of alien pregnant women on free prenatal care, and concomitantly have the largest illegal Hispanic population.  Why should this be the case?  Some of the wealthiest corporations in the U.S. are illegally hiring the illegal Hispanic population, i.e. Tyson’s, George’s, etc.

At the inception of the program there were 5,832 illegal women enrolled in the program between July 1, 2004 & June 30, 2005 producing 1,097 anchor babies….why so few anchor babies produced?  These numbers increased from July 1, 2005 to April 30, 2006 to 8,748 enrolled with 1,601 anchor babies produced…according to DHS records. These numbers vary from various newspaper reports and the numbers I received in early October.

The 2 Senators who spearheaded prenatal care for illegal women were then Senators Beebe (now Governor) and Moril Harriman (now Tyson lobbyist and currently on Beebe’s staff), coupled with Gwatney, Bradford, and Ross.

The most recent FOI produces numbers that tend to be skewed and contradict the numbers mentioned above, e.g. the numbers of non-qualified alien pregnant women enrolled in the program in 2005 were 2,070, in 2006 were 3,191, in 2007 were 3,479. These latest numbers show a dramatic  escalation.

Jeffus apparently, from his initial comments, concluded the number of illegal pregnancies would be a static number…typical bureaucratic ineptness.  The total program estimated cost from July, 04 to June, 05 was $3,277,350.72…borne on the backs of Arkansas middleclass taxpayers.  Think, 2007…then think again, the mass exodus of illegals from Oklahoma & Tennessee and soon to be Missouri for Arkansas. The Fed pays 80% (that’s us) and the state pays 20% (that’s us) for these criminal forced redistribution programs.

The information received in this latest FOI request appears to be fragmentary at best, and the DHS is almost impervious to inquiring eyes demanding to know the full scope of this ill-advised at the least and unconstitutional program.

Gov. Beebe last week, Nov. 6, 2007 showed his insolence toward Arkansas citizens by giving his seal of approval to the Arkansas Friendship Coalition, a seditious group hell bent on open borders and cheap labor, not only for corporate largesse but for certain religious orders, and the various government employees.

Citizens we must demand immediately the Governor shuck his alliance with corporate management, call a special legislative session,  repeal this criminally unconstitutional  program providing free prenatal care for illegals, and a myriad of ancillary services, and craft laws meting out severe penalties to those entities hiring illegals, i.e. Tyson’s, Carlyle, George’s, OK Foods, Cargill, etc. etc.

Should Gov. Beebe fail to act on these critical issues, he should be recalled immediately.

Recall that DHS Director Roy Jeffus estimated cost per birth would be $1300.  Also remember he failed to include the ongoing myriad of ancillary services provided for these women and the anchor babies they produced. My research showed it can be easily proven that each of these pregnancies can cost taxpayers in the range of $7,500 to $15,000 per birth. Consider additionally the environmental and health hazards the illegals bring to the table.  The first one comes to mind is the TB carrier, to TB infection, to TB disease…which was wiped out many years before the illegal Mexican invasion.
