Via We Hate Gringos:

There is something to be said about history repeating itself. One hundred and fifty years ago, America was still in the process of “ settlement” of its land and territory. Right or wrong, the country was a ‘war’ with various Indian tribes who objected to the spread of the settlers. Unscrupulous profiteers were hunted down and killed for selling whiskey to them, which seemed to bolster the rage and activities of the Indians to kill the settlers. Several decades later during and well after America’s “prohibition” period, bootleggers and “moon shiners” ran amok in the mid-west and southern states selling home-made hooch, which could cause blindness and death, and they became targets of federal early-day “swat teams”.

In a similar vein, the words “carpetbagger” or “profiteer”, when used to describe Arizona senior senator John McCain, would be kind at best. Much more befitting his history, character, and intentions for the future of America would be “scoundrel”, “racketeer”, or “traitor”. McCain’s position as the Republican “point man” for George W. Bush’s AMNESTY for 20 million illegal aliens, predominately from Mexico, had been well documented by the American media. But the press has missed, overlooked, or covered up McCain’s ulterior motive: a post-amnesty cornucopia of unimaginable personal profit and financial gain. And now for the second time, this is a man seeking to hold the highest office in the land – the President of the United States.

Since early 2004, McCain has stood staunchly against his constituents in Arizona in the fight against illegal immigration. His cohesion with the fat drunken sot, senator Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.), to pass amnesty for 20 million illegal aliens from Mexico is being touted as a labor of compassion or humanitarianism. But when one looks at John McCain’s past and his present primary source of wealth, a different tale of corruption, greed, and treason is exposed.

When McCain retired as a Navy captain in 1980 at a salary around $45K, he divorced his first wife, moved to Arizona, and married Arizona native Cindy Lou Hensley. Cindy’s father James Hensley, was the owner of Hensley & Company, one of the largest distributors of Budweiser products. McCain’s first job in Arizona in 1982 was a marketing representative for the Hensley concern, and he traveled the state hyping the virtues of its products and, of course, his self. In that same year, McCain was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in his first venture into the political world. This was in conjunction with and obviously financed by his wife Cindy’s $700,000 in salary from Hensley-related enterprises.

James Hensley had acquired the capital early on to build his empire as a bootlegger and later in a partnership with Arizona liquor baron Kemper Marley. Marley would years later be a prime suspect in ordering the 1976 car-bombing murder of Arizona Republic newspaper reporter Don Bolles, who had authored several pieces on Marley’s business and political dealings. Marley died in 1990, and was never charged in the case.

During John McCain’s twenty-five year tenure in congress as a representative and later a senator, he has never wanted for lack of financial resources – fueled by the Hensley empire. He was and is today, one of the wealthiest politicians in Washington. In the year 2000, Hensley & Company was the fifth largest distributor of Budweiser products in the nation with $200 million in profits from nearly 20 million cases of beer annually. Today, the operation is known as “Hensley Beer” and chaired by his wife Cindy Hensley McCain.

As the invasion from Mexico has geared up ten-fold under the corrupt and criminal Bush administration, the sales and profits of Hensley Beer have skyrocketed. The mouthwash and holy water of Mexicans in the American southwest is “Bud Light”. In Mexican-dominated enclaves scattered throughout Phoenix and other Arizona communities, the evidence that Bud Light is the beer-of-choice is clear. Jettisoned bottles of the product are easily found on streets, sidewalks, lawns, alleys, and occasionally in trash dumpsters. Further evidence is apparent by witnessing purchases in neighborhood convenience stores. Bud Light has become the fodder of the now famous “beer runs” in which a thief(s) enters a store, grabs a case or two, and bolts out the front door.

So which situation could be more profitable for Mr. & Mrs. John McCain and make them even more mega-rich? Talking about AMNESTY, which at every utterance creates another surge from the outhouse to the south? How about passing an unconditional federally-mandated AMNESTY and allowing the 20-plus million illegal Mexicans in the U.S. to each legally bring in ten or twenty more of their immediate and “extended” family members from Mexico, and boosting America’s Mexican population by another 50-70 million within five years?

If you had a crystal ball or a shovel, you would find that everyone in Washington (including the White House criminal) who is supporting amnesty has a payoff waiting for them at the finish line. The same financial motivations that have spurred congress to allow George W. Bush to skirt U.S. immigration laws and border security for seven years, are the same money magnets triggering the desperation to cement illegality-for-profit and place it in the sanctuary of a “safe house”. But to excuse a lawmaker like John McCain with twenty-five years on the public dole because “everybody is corrupt” is defeatism. Is “his” corruption grand-fathered in?

Oddly enough, it was just a few months ago that McCain seemed to be distancing himself from the McCain-Kennedy travesty bill and the infighting over amnesty in the Senate. But as his numbers dipped to third place behind the facade of tough illegal immigration rhetoric from Giuliani and Romney, he seemed to rejoin the road show for permanent cheap-labor legislation. Perhaps he realized he had nothing to lose and everything to gain.

As a result of John McCain’s continuous and self-serving amnesty-stumping across America, his “presidential” numbers went south into the Sonoran sewer. The odds that this albino RINO and his booming beer baroness would occupy the White House seemed more than winning a multi-state sanctioned lottery. But the wormed turned when Democrats / liberals, the profit-at-all-cost business crowd, and a bustling mass of ignorance known as American voters brought this slime ball back from the grave to be the presumptive Republican presidential nominee.

The November 2008 election will produce yet another amnesty monger occupying the White House – no matter who the victor, the McCains will win. It is a certainty that another four to eight years of executive criminality and betrayal will be the epitaph of an America lost.
