Luis Gutierrez. I have never liked this guy, but now I really despise him. He was born in Chicago but is largely anti-American. In the past he was a member of the Marxist-Leninist Puerto Rican Socialist Party.
Here is what one of his contemporaries said about him:
At a West Town gym Puerto Rican aerobics instructor Lisa Marrero told a neighbor and me how she disliked Congressman Gutierrez, whom she associated with “those people who placed bombs.” Lisa commented: “I went to Northeastern [Illinois University] with him. He was friends with all those people who placed bombs and are in jail. I went to school with them. Those people are trouble.”
Well, the other day this little cockroach had the audacity to verbally spit on Marine General John Kelly:
“General Kelly is a hypocrite who is a disgrace to the uniform he used to wear. He has no honor and should be drummed out of the White House along with the white supremacists and those enabling the President’s actions by ‘just following orders,’” Gutierrez said in a statement issued hours after Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced that DACA will be phased out.
This little twerp never wore the uniform of this country, but he wants to import all of Mexico and make America a Communist utopia. He has also been involved in a several shady real estate deals.
As for Kelly, he’s had quite the career:
In 1999, Colonel Kelly transferred to joint duty and served as the Special Assistant to the Supreme Allied Commander, Europe, in Mons, Belgium. He returned to the United States in 2001, and was assigned to a third tour of duty at Camp Lejeune, now as the Assistant Chief of Staff G-3 with the 2nd Marine Division. In 2002, selected to the rank of Brigadier General, Colonel Kelly again served with the 1st Marine Division, this time as the Assistant Division Commander. Much of Brigadier General Kelly’s two-year assignment was spent deployed in Iraq. He then returned to Headquarters Marine Corps as the Legislative Assistant to the Commandant from 2004 to 2007. Promoted to major general, he returned to Camp Pendleton as the Commanding General, I Marine Expeditionary Force (Forward). The command deployed to Iraq in early 2008 for a year-long mission, replacing II Marine Expeditionary Force (Forward) as Multinational Force-West in Al Anbar and western Ninewa provinces. LtGen Kelly commanded Marine Forces Reserve and Marine Forces North from October 2009 to March 2011. General Kelly comes to United States Southern Command from his previous position as the Senior Military Assistant to the Secretary of Defense from March 2011 to October 2012.
Gutierrez’s words are repulsive, even for a Marxist democrat. There’s something else you need to know. This is Gen. Kelly with his son:
This is where his son is today:
It’s not enough to Gutierrez to disagree. La cucaracha had to descend into the cesspool of hate, as he usually does, but this was too much.
“No honor”
“Disgrace to the uniform”
Gutierrez is an execrable piece of garbage. An anti-American scumbag.
UPDATE
I forgot to mention that if the only reason this cucaracha de mierda remains in office is his tortured gerrymandered district:
AND he was the guy who called Kate Steinle’s murder a “little thing.”
DrJohn has been a health care professional for more than 30 years. In addition to clinical practice he has done extensive research and has published widely with over 70 original articles and abstracts in the peer-reviewed literature. DrJohn is well known in his field and has lectured on every continent except for Antarctica. He has been married to the same wonderful lady for over 30 years and has three kids- two sons, both of whom are attorneys and one daughter on her way into the field of education.
DrJohn was brought up with the concept that one can do well if one is prepared to work hard but nothing in life is guaranteed.
Except for liberals being foolish.
Anti-Americanism has become an overriding characteristic of the left. Not enough Americans are willing to toss away security, success and opportunity for the sake of swirling the socialistic drain like so many others have. Scum like Gutierrez want to replace Americans en masse with easily manipulated, desperate people ignorant of the facts that they can replace with liberal ideology.
If there was ever any doubt about how bad the socialism the left desires would be for America and Americans, just look at what they are willing to throw away to get there.
Gutierrez is a low life piece of shit who on his best day couldn’t shine Kelly’s boots or those of his son. Dr. J beat me to the punch by posting a map of his district. THE classic example of gerrymandering if there ever was one. Those neighborhoods it bypasses are black. If his district was drawn properly, he’d probably be out of his American taxpayer funded job. The Latino/black relationship, at least in Chicago, is fragile at best. Something the MSM chooses to ignore in their quest to divide the country along race/ethnic lines ala Obama.
lost my daughter, she died serving this country. her flag sits in the office as a reminder of her service, someday I will join her. the socialistic state of Chi is bad. years ago, they advertised ill as a state just outside of chi.
Too bad the system is packed with subversives.
I can’t help but wonder where Hayjay43202/HoJay43202 and Greg are on this guy? Clearly he’s a slime bag that no one would allow to lick their balls. You know he’s bad when these FA libs won’t stand up for him.
There needs to be a law that no voting district may contain more than X (to be defined) number of borders that are not geographic or previously existing political borders.
Luis Gutiérrez’s personal comments about Kelly are totally inappropriate. I don’t excuse them. I’ve been on the receiving end of personal insults involving the uniform I wore in the past many times myself.
That said, I fully understand where Gutiérrez’s anger is coming from. Trump has set the eventual deportation of nearly 800,000 young people presently protected by DACA in motion. He has, however, put that off into the future a bit, to avoid immediate political consequences, proclaimed his love for the people in question, and passed the buck to the Republican-controlled Congress. The Republican-controlled Congress, however, most likely lacks the moral fiber and political courage to tackle immigration reform and the plight of those sheltered by DACA legislatively. It’s easier for them to pander to their constituents by doing nothing, while making conciliatory noises and proclaiming they harbor no animosity for the trusting young people who revealed themselves to the government in return for a measure of promised protection.
Then you’ve got Sessions, who will “only be complying with the law,” and General Kelly, who will “only be following orders.” Gutiérrez understands how this set up would work. It enrages him how everybody will have an excuse, and everybody will avoid taking personal responsibility.
They’ll all stand there wringing their hands and proclaiming their “love” as nearly 800,000 young Latinos are ejected from the only nation many of them have ever known, for something they themselves didn’t do, while their supporters chortle, and tell themselves that those being so treated are all bad people.
Luis Gutiérrez, by the way, is a native-born American. He was born in Illinois. Both parents were American citizens.
@Greg:
Where do you get these are 800.000 young Latinos? No Chinese? No Africans? No Muslims? Oh, that’s right; the majority of them are Hispanic, so in order to make it a “racist” thing, deporting those who have no right to be here, your side has to pander to the “Hispanics.”
If your so interested in all things “Hispanic”, why don’t we just adopt Mexico’s immigration laws? It would be one way to shut Mexico up about how we are being “mean.”
@Redteam:
How would he lick what they don’t possess?
@Greg:
It has been made abundantly clear that the targets of deportation are criminals and gang members, some of which are protected by DACA. Discarding an unConstitutional EO is not deporting 800,000 people.
Putting forth the premise that this is going to immediately deport 800,000 innocent children is nothing but yet another liberal lie and Gutierrez is one of the more prolific liberal liars (and that IS a competitive field).
@retire05, #8:
There is a racist component. What do you think about that “la cucaracha” image of Luis Gutiérrez? The fact that something is totally invisible to you doesn’t mean it’s totally invisible to others.
@Bill… Deplorable Me, #9:
Promising young people who are in this situation through no fault of their own will be living from one day to the next under the threat of being forcibly removed from the only nation and home they’ve ever known to a foreign land they may not even remember. While they remain, they could lose the right to work and the means to support themselves. There’s nothing right about this.
@Greg:
Well, that is the risk people run when they break the law. Their parents should not have put them in such a situation and Obama should never have given them the impression that they and their parents can just $hit all over US laws and TAKE what they want.
Did you happen to read “14 Things the MSM Won’t Tell You About DACA”? As was the practice of the past administration, many of the DACA lot were not properly vetted and there are a LOT of criminals among them. They aren’t “kids” and they are not all holding up their end of the bargain.
DACA was unConstitutional. Now, it’s garbage. THAT’S what’s right about it. Obama, as he did so many times, screwed this up and not it is up to Trump to fix it. It is a tough decision, but Trump is a leader, not a professional panderer, like Obama. Feel sorry for the victims? Blame the victimizer. Blame Obama and YOUR party.
@Bill… Deplorable Me, #11:
They didn’t knowingly break the law of the land. Their parents did. Which is what the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals category addresses.
We generally don’t punish children for the sins of their fathers—and it seems particularly wrongful to do so when we do it 10 or 15 or 20 years after the fact. We’re not sending them home. They often have another homeland only as a matter of legal technicality.
Fine. When you find such criminals among them, treat those specific persons as you would any criminal. In addition, deport those specific persons if deportation is in order. Let the criminal conduct of such persons be a basis for removal of their DACA protection status. Few DACA supporters will object, because it was never the purpose of DACA to protect such individuals to begin with.
The truth is that the right wants to conflate DACA protection with the harboring of criminal elements. You might as well make the case that Cubs fans are a low element because some low elements happen to be Cubs fans.
@Greg: Where does it end? Reagan gave amnesty the borders and immigration were promised to be settled now more generations just waltz in and expect without going though proper channels to get a path to citizenship. How about the parents do they get the boot? We have watched the most pathetic heart breaking examples, lets go through the 41K illegals in prison see how many dreamers are there too. A temporary order means a sunset, its time congress gets off the money raising campaign and get to work, no blanket for these people set parameters, then to the end of the line.
The real hoot is the Mexican President saying how cruel it is, does his country not want their children back? Those promising young people you speak of?
The 41K illegals in prison refers to people who are in immigration detention. How many of those have been convicted of some other serious crime would be a different number.
This 2017 chart breaks down the prison population.
The chart comes from this page: Mass Incarceration: The Whole Pie 2017 So does the following paragraph:
The 41 thousand are those civilly detained by ICE specifically for immigration violations.
@Greg:
Do you have a single solitary example of a DACA qualified individual being deported for any reason other than breaking the law?
Congress debated and voted on this twice… and twice it was rejected. THAT’S how laws are enacted, not by some petty dictator enacting it by edict. Trump at least provided a 6 month cushion to get legislation enacted, so you’d best get on the phone to your crybaby Congresspeople and demand they stop just naysaying everything Trump attempts. Otherwise, as you seem to think will happen, buh-bye Dreamers.
@kitt: Supposedly, these people are fleeing conditions brought about by poor economies and lawless conditions, two situations which are often interwoven. Yet, they want to stay in an nation courtesy of disregarding laws which inevitably weakens the economy. Worms like Gutierrez want to bolster his support base to enhance his political power and he is happy to do this by replacing citizens with illegal immigrants. I don’t care how you want to spin it, that is anti-American.
@Greg:First, you ‘don’t’ excuse them:
Then…..you excuse them:
Greg, if you don’t excuse a comment, you at least wait more than the next sentence to excuse it.
All over a point you clearly don’t even understand:
No, he did not. He, in fact, put off any action with DACA until the congress passes the law that deals with them, with no action taken based on anything he did unless the congress fails to do their job.
It’s kinda obvious you don’t understand the issue, but what’s new?
@Greg:
Well boo hoo hoo. So if a young girl is raised as a sex slave and it’s the only life she’s ever known it would not be the right thing to do to make someone comply with the law? You advocate that ‘what the hell, they’ve always broken the law, it’s the only way to do things and would be cruel to have them obey the law.” Only a liberal socialist could think that way. People in Cuba raised under Castro have only known that life, should they be required to stay in it because that’s all they’ve ever known. That’s not a good excuse.
@Redteam: What upsets these people is that another little shard of Obama’s legacy has been eradicated. That’s all. The left doesn’t care about any of these DACA people until they swear allegiance to the liberal cause. Those who don’t are racists, homophobes, Islamaphobes, white supremacists anyway.
One of Obama’s little stains on the nation has been erased and the left goes into hysterics. They don’t care about human beings.
@Greg:
But primarily he’s a real douchebag.
@Redteam: He’s not an American. He’s and anti-American.
@Redteam: Here’s a plan- for every DACA person we let stay, we deport one lefty. That’s a trade off worth looking at. If the lefties care so much about the future of these folks, they should jump at the opportunity at self sacrifice, something foreign to most of them. Just look at their “carbon footprints”, lack of donations to black reparations, and use of every available tax write off.
That’s just all you want to see.
@MOS #8541: God bless you and your daughter.
You both know what honor is.
@MOS #8541: I Second what Kathleen said. God bless both of you and I thank your daughter for her sacrifice and her service.
@Greg: 22% total population are illegalhttp://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2017/aug/1/immigrants-22-percent-federal-prison-population/
At least 60k in detention not the prison population.
Congress and only congress has the power to make immigration law per that paper you have no use for the Constitution.
Get on the phone and call your reps and tell them to work for a living, stop giving away their powers to other branches elected and non elected.Any rep complaining about this is a lazy good for nothing burden to society. Obama ran the government like a power mad king do you really want Trump to exercise his power like that, I dont.
@MOS #8541: I am sorry for your loss and grateful for your enormous sacrifice.
@MOS #8541:
And let me add my thanks and gratitude as well
@Greg:
That was noted in the post. He is still an a**hole.
@MOS #8541: Sorry for your loss. I know you are very proud of her as you should be.
@DrJohn, #28:
Gutiérrez did nothing more than momentarily lapse into the sort of behavior I observe on the part of many of the people who are criticizing him every day of the week. Many high profile people on the right also make insulting comments that are very personal. As I noted earlier, a few around here have personally insulted me on numerous occasions by way of the uniform I put on and went to war in.
@Greg:
I don’t think you deserve that derision. As for Gutierrez, he deserves it all. This behavior is not atypical for him.
@MOS #8541: Sad to hear of the loss of your daughter. That’s has to be one of the most devastating feelings that a human can have. I’m sure she was doing what she felt was noble and that she wanted to do.
@Greg:
I don’t believe that to be true. I know I have certainly attempted to make you see the error of your ways, but it had ‘nothing’ to do with any uniform you put on. I didn’t know until about 1 month ago that you are a vet. Most persons that serve do it honorably and for the right reasons. Some may have other intentions. Matters not to me as long as I don’t know the difference. I don’t believe you got so screwed up from serving in any military units. They usually help you to stay on the right trap, so you’ll have to blame it on something else.
@Greg:
BS, Guiterrez is an asshole, yesterday, today and forever. A total POS. He need to leave the US and go to some country that shares his standards and morals. Maybe Iraq or Somalia.
@Redteam:
He has disputed the service of most of us here who served in Iraq and Afghanistan (Randy, Old Trooper, David, myself) by telling us we don’t know what we were talking about with regards to those wars even though we were there and he wasn’t. He once called “nonsense” on David because David’s personal experience didn’t fit his opinion of what went on in Iraq. Kind of like the little kid on the playground who goes around hitting people and then cries to the teacher when someone hits back.
@Redteam:
You’re right. He grew up in Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighborhood. He was raised in an English speaking household.
Congressman Pendejo had to learn to speak Spanish as a second language.
@another vet: very interesting, you are saying he has reaped what he has sown. I don’t know what service greg was in or whether it was voluntary. Putting other vets down, that’s despicable.
@Redteam:
He was Army but I believe he admitted he never left the wire which is a good thing because know-it-alls like him are dangerous and are the type of people who get others (and themselves) into bad situations. It has nothing to do with his service, but everything to do with the type of person he has shown himself to be.
He also bashed a group a SEALS who criticized Obama in 2012. He said they “weren’t real SEALS”, something I would have paid to see him say to one of their faces. Supporters of the group included Chris Kyle and Marcus Luttrell. Luttrell was a huge critic of Obama and Kyle was no fan either. There is no telling how many American lives Kyle saved in Iraq with his sniping skills.
