Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL): STEM expert

Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL)
Here at iSteve, we strive to keep you up to date on la raza's latest and whitest representatives to surface in the media as immigration experts. Today's surfacee is former nephew-in-law of Fidel Castro and current Republican Congressman from that high tech hub of Hialeah, FL, Mario Diaz-Balart. From the NYT:
House Votes to Ease Visa Limits for Some Foreign Workers 
WASHINGTON — A divided House of Representatives voted Friday to ease visa restrictions for a limited pool of foreign workers, previewing a fight over how far Congress should go in changing the country’s immigration laws. 
The bill the House approved by a vote of 245 to 139 — with just 27 Democrats supporting it — stands little chance of advancing in the Senate, where Democrats have control. And the White House has come out in opposition to the bill, calling it too “narrowly tailored” and incompatible with President Obama’s vision for a more comprehensive approach. 
Looming over the House vote was a stark political reality: Republicans received just a sliver of the Hispanic vote in the elections last month, and the party is divided over how best to improve its standing with such a large and growing demographic. 
Some Republicans are eager to move forward with legislation that would tighten border controls but also start paving a path to citizenship for some of the estimated 11 million illegal immigrants now in the United States, a move that could help reverse impressions among Hispanics that the party is hostile to immigrants. But many are also wary of the furor that could arise among conservative voters over any perceived softness on those who are here illegally. 
Some leading Republicans have become more vocal about their desire to see immigration legislation pass, albeit in a nuanced fashion. ... 
The House bill, which would provide for 55,000 visas for foreign graduates of American universities who have doctoral and master’s degrees in science, technology, engineering or mathematics, was an attempt to reconcile the concerns within the party. And some Republicans acknowledged its shortcomings. 
“It is not the panacea,” said Representative Mario Diaz-Balart, who represents a stretch of South Florida west of Miami. “It does not solve all the problems. But it takes a huge step.” ...
But some Democrats said Friday that the bill set immigrant groups against one another by deepening demographic divides. 
“That is not America,” said Representative Luis V. Gutierrez of Chicago. “There was no special line for Ph.D.’s and master’s degree holders at Ellis Island.”

A leading expert on immigration on the Democratic side of Congress is Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ), who looks like Pat Robertson. From VOXXI:
The Congressional Hispanic Caucus rebuffed recent Republican immigration legislation as partisan. Instead, the caucus laid the groundwork for their own principles on immigration reform as a means for dialogue during a press conference with reporters Wednesday. 
The meeting took place days after Republicans in the Senate and House publicized legislation for a DREAM Act version and STEM Visa that would boost high-skilled labor. Already both bills have undergone scrutiny indicating that it would result in a seemingly partisan divide. 
Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.), who has been at the forefront of the immigration debate, explained to VOXXI that the bills being proposed from Republicans are not bipartisan in nature and therefore he rejects it. 
“I don’t like to negotiate in parts,” said Menendez, while relaying his response to piecemeal legislation. “I want to know everything that my colleagues want. And after that start to negotiate.” 
On the Senate side, Menendez said conversations on immigration reform have started individually with members, but not in a collective group. 
That echoed the assertion he relayed to reporters at the U.S. Capitol on the Achieve Act. The Achieve Act, sponsored by Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) and Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchinson (R-Texas), follows similar principles as Sen. Marco Rubio, but offers not pathway to citizenship. The Senator went on to note that the problem with the “Achieve Act is that it doesn’t achieve the dream.” 
Menendez reiterated that a pathway to citizenship is non-negotiable. Although he did agree that the Republican efforts are a good starting point from the party’s beliefs in the past. He’s cautiously optimistic.

What, you say that both these gentlemen aren't Mexican, they are Cuban, and Cubans have their own special immigration package, that they aren't even racialist opportunists, they're just individual opportunists propelled forward by the ignorance and madness of the times?

How racist of you.

    "Today's surfacee is former nephew-in-law of Fidel Castro and current Republican Congressman from that high tech hub of Hialeah, FL, Mario Diaz-Balart. From the NYT:"

    Make fun all you want, but high tech or not, Cuban-Americans are, on average, wealthier and better educated than Anglo Americans. According to statistics from Stanford University, 45% of Cuban-Americans make more than 100 K a year compared to only 18% for Anglos.

    And so what they are white? "Latino" is a CULTURAL and not racial category. And Cuban-Americans are mostly of Spaniard descent and Spaniards, like Sicilans, were regarded as a biologically lesser kind of white historically by América. The 1924 and 1952 Immigration Acts both limited the amount of immgrants from suthern Europe on the grounds they were biologically less desirable than northern Europeans.

    There is nothing wrong with Cuban-Americans identifying as Latinos and benefiting from that. WASPS, they are not, and a Cuban-American would never be able to become U.S presidente up to the 1960s.

  11. So, this bill had one great provision -- ending the diversity visa lottery -- and one terrible provision -- more cheap labor for the tech sector. Most restrictionists, from both parties, voted in favor, presumably because they thought that the good outweighed the bad. It's a tough call; a lot of principled people voted yes: Ron Paul; Michele Bachmann (loopy on other matters, yes, but great on immigration); Steve King; a number of restrictionist Democrats such as Senator-elect Donnelly and outgoing protectionist champion Kissell; et al. This sort of thing is what makes politics so morally murky.

    Among the five Republicans who voted no were Walter Jones and Lou Barletta, for reasons of restrictionist purism I suppose; good for them, too. (I am not familiar enough with the other three to gauge their motivations.)

  13. Nobody likes or wants nerdy White guys around Steve. Which is why the Republicans picked H1-B visas. Getting into IT is insane, the way semi-slave H1-Bs and outsourcing reduces wages, along with ethnic nepotism in hiring (get one Indian or Chinese PM and your whole team will in short order be ... Indian or Chinese, generally from the same village and all distantly related at worst).

    But this happens because most people just HATE HATE HATE (and White women especially) nerdy neck-beard White guys. All they represent -- massive social, economic, political, and cultural CHANGE.

    It's been a while since I've bothered to look them up, but I remember being struck by how poor the "anticommunist" Cuban reps in Florida were graded by Gun Owners of America.

    1. Cuban politicians and the Miami Mafia (Batista regime parasites) give the rest of Cubans -- a vast majority -- a bad name. If you knew some non-elite Cubans from outside of Dade County (and outside of the Castro regime, of course) you'd probably change your mind about Cubans.

      The only honest Cuban politician I know of was Huber Matos, so it is particularly unfortunate that he was an idiot.

    I suggested this here some time back actually, but it wasn't warmly received - something about the black female diversity officer laughing your white ass out of the office.

    It got Elizabeth Warren into Hahvad and she didn't even have a DNA test--she just claimed Cherokee ancestry by "family lore."

    LOTS of Americans can claim Indian ancestry, particularly the "rednecks" of the Southeast (Elvis, Wayne Newton, the country singer Loretta Lynn are just three examples) who inter-married extensively with the Cherokee and Choctaw. Imagine what would happen if thousands of Southern "rednecks" started demanding entrance to Hahvad based on their proven Cherokee or Choctaw DNA.

    The liberal elites would crap their panties with rage.

  20. GOP deal for Cubans should be this:

    1) Cubans back immigration restriction.

    2) In return, US replaces embargo on Cuba with 10% tariff, and uses the proceeds of that to compensate Cuban-Americans (and their heirs) whose property was expropriated by Castro.

  23. "Some Republicans are eager to move forward with legislation that would tighten border controls but also start paving a path to citizenship..."

    Everytime we're told we need "a path to citizenship" we need to tell them we did that: over a century ago. Everytime we're told we need to "bring people out of the shadows" we need to tell them we did that...26 years ago.

    "But some Democrats said Friday that the bill set immigrant groups against one another by deepening demographic divides."

    In other words, they're afraid that Asians and Hispanics might begin fighting with each other, and lose sight of the fact that they're supposed to both be attacking whites.

  26. It isn't Whiskey who turns this place into a junior-high its the dime store Nietzcheans cheap cynics who do that. It is like John Fowles say sarcasm is the refuge of the week. That is why Pat Buchanan makes it in the world while most alt right commentators don't. Pat isn't snide and sarcastic he is vigorous and direct. Sarcasm and vigor are mutually exclusive. It's like the earlier poster said about "shut up loser" it isn't your ideas, or that fact that you can't insulate yourself from the effects of immigration that make people think the alt right are losers it is your attitude. Say what you want about the Christian right, but with focus and earnestness they got alot further into the Republican power structure than you guys did. But what is many of yours response to the Christian right sheer disdain and sneering contempt.

    This is where the Jewish-focus of the alt right really hurts it. You guys are not going to be able to ridicule and mock your way into power like the post-war Jews did.That only works when you are confronting an Apollonian power structure. The Dionysian hegemony of the left will have to fall the way decadent pagan Rome fell. By being confronted by something earnest and vigorous. Lucretius didn't make much progress did he?

    Nope. They are SIGNIFICANTLY wealthier and better educated than White Anglos. A Cuban-American, for instance, was CEO of Coca-Cola, the most quintessential of all American corporations. Cuban-Americans own most of the best real estate in Miami, and they are one of the most afluent communities in Florida despite being relatively few in numbers.

    That's a fair criticism. But at this point a lot of us may believe that sarcasm and cynicism are the only places left to retreat. I greatly admire Pat Buchanan, but I don't think his vigor (or intellectual rigor) penetrates the skulls of many Jersey Shore*-watchers. It goes without saying that his directness is reflexively written off by the mainstream as racism, xenophobia, homophobia, etc. I even know an evangelical Christian who called Pat Buchanan a racist when I mentioned his name.

  35. And this is not "self-pity" but a telling observation: The West simply cracked up under too much technological change that destroyed social cohesion.

    Look at what happened from 1950 to 1986:

    *People moved to the suburbs leaving old city centers via cheap autos.
    *Nearly everyone owned a car, making the elites less special and distinguished.
    *Many owned or rented decent housing, also making elites less special and distinguished.
    *TV replaced the old social networks and power structures that dominated people's lives and told them how to think and act.
    *TV in turn started to be replaced by cable fragmentation in the 1980s.
    *Computers moved from massive, uber-specialized machines requiring basically a priesthood to something the average person could buy and tinker with.
    *Travel on airplanes went from uber-expensive slow prop planes to cheap commodity jet travel that nearly anyone could afford.
    *Music went from something enjoyed only in the home to something anyone could listen to privately anywhere.

    And it just never ... stopped. TV went from a novelty only a few had to dominant, then color, then stereo, then Hi-Definition. From something that had to be watched live, to recordable in any number of formats.

    Mitt Romney wanted to staple a green card to every STEM foreign national in the US. Why? Because US White guys in science and math really are the enemy, as they bring massive social change. Some of it is trivial, or in isolation not much, but cumulatively it is massive.

    The US in a mere thirty six years went from a nation that lived mostly in cities, or farms, to one that lived mostly in suburbs. That had no car to owning maybe two per family. To going to movies often to going rarely. From being oriented towards hanging out downtown to watching TV in the living room. From doing math on paper and pencil to using spreadsheets. From music defined from big band and swing to nearly every genre you could think of. From music being rare to commonplace.

    And from status being obvious and unchallenged, to being always amorphous, chaotic, and vulnerable.

If he MUST say the same thing, can't he at least muster the wit to say it differently?

    Perhaps many years ago "White women hate-hate-HATE beta nerds" was a provocative and thought-provoking sentence. Now it's like reading "Kilroy was here!" or some less printable form of public-bathroom graffiti. It's just an affront to public decency.

    "Cool! That would be awesome! But before we rush to any conclusions, let's see some third-party data. What about that Stanford study? Do you have a reference for it?~

    Here is some data for you: they own half of Miami including the best real estate, they can make or break newspapers down there - the Miami Herald became pro-bilingual education due exclusively to pressure from the Cuban lobby. No President has dared to challenge them on the Cuban embargo and they have enough power to, despite their paultry numbers, make the U.S government do whatever they want regarding Cuba, despite the huge pressure from business interests to lift the embargo. They also produce a ton of Ivy League graduates, like George Borjas who writes for Vdare. Then, there is Roberto Gozueta, who was global presidente of Coca-Cola.

    Your study is inaccurate and laughable. Anyone who has ever been to Miami knows how wealthy Cuban-Americans are. They for the most part have upper middle-class lifestyles and they are one of the most influential communities in Florida. They also tend to be professionals, such as doctors, lawyers and masnagers.

  44. ... because of Kennedy's 1965 act.

    This is pure BS. I am getting so tired of people calling the 1965 Immigration Act the Ted Kennedy Act.

    The Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1965 was written by Emanuel Celler who spent over 40 years trying to get immigration changed from the restrictions of the Immigration Act of 1924. Celler was a member of House of Representatives. He wrote the bill and introduced it into the House. Kennedy was a Senator who could not introduce legislation in the House.

    Senator Philip Hart co-sponsored this legislation in the Senate.

    And of course LBJ signed it into law.

    Was Ted Kennedy a vocal supporter? You betcha. But to simply call it his act is insulting because it lets off the hook the true villains who crafted it, especially Celler. Celler spent his whole career in the House pushing for this and now no one even knows his name.

    Of course the media does nothing to correct people on this. I guess they figure it is better to blame the drunken Irishman for our demographic change than the people who actually planned and executed it. I guess it might be safer for them if the Hoi Polloi start grabbing for the pitch forks.

    Before 1965, the notion that America was not a European, and primarily NW European, nation was not questioned. So Eisenhower could launch an Operation Wetback if the Southern border crossings got out of hand. After 1965, that changed and with it the will to maintain the historic American nation.

  52. Its certainly true that Emanuel Celler and a certain tribe of people he is associated with (the "Scots-Irish" of course) were the true driving force in 1965 in undermining America. Nevertheless, Kennedy chose to be the frontman, to attach his name, status and prestige to the act. He could have said no. He could even have tried to oppose it. But he didn't. He was at least a willing accomplice in the destruction of the historic American nation.
