Geraldo: I Say The President Should Pull The Trigger On Immigration

So today, my man Geraldo Rivera, 77 WABC New York, is departing from his fellow Republicans, as he so often does, to promote the plan of President Obama to go ahead with his plan of immigration reform without the consent of congress.

Geraldo is on WABC every morning from 10-12--he is not afraid to go in a different direction from his other cohorts at Fox News.

Can't wait to see it this evening--he will go up against Bill O'Reilly on The Factor to argue the issue.

Can't help but view Bill O'Reilly as a racist--on many--occasions as he recounts his ideas for policy regarding people of the Religion of Islam and his take on poverty in the African-American community.

I invite Bill here to Wichita and merely witness the lack of grocery stores in the lower income area and hear his take on that--there is simply no access to food in walking distance. Unbelievable!

San Diego--12 year old boys beat up for gang affiliation in the barrio......Bill, just wondering--what do you call that sich?

Can't start here on Bill O'Reilly and white privilege.......his lack of compassion for his fellow human beings is a completely other subject for deep introspection on a different day.

Geraldo is not afraid to stand up to O'Reilly. He said the other members of the GOP are really not interested in moving forward on immigration reform.

Geraldo Rivera is not always behind our President but immigration is one of his pet projects and dear to his heart. He said there are over 500,000 undocumented workers in the New York City area alone.

Geraldo told us the last time him and O'Reilly went off on this subject they almost came to blows--it was heated--and the closest he has ever come to a fight on the air.

These people are here and working hard and want a future just like the rest of us.

Here is a sample of the traditional older hard working Latinos in action in San Diego..........

Take a trip to Rancho Santa Fe and see who is doing all of the manual labor, building brick walls, gardening, etc. The place could not survive without the Hispanic labor.

And as George Bush said....who is going to pick strawberries....my kids are not going to do that kind of work, are yours.......

The best story is the Mexican guys working on an extremely steep roof, no protection, huge drop off, on Thanksgiving day. I said.....why are you guys working on Thanksgiving......and they said....my boss--he wants the money.

Geraldo also did a good job on his show recently when he called out San Diego congressman Duncan Hunter on saying 5 members of Isis had come through the Southern Border. In fact, thanks to Geraldo, it was proven to be a lie without any substantiation of facts behind the statement.

The border in San Diego and the surrounding areas is extremely strong. Try visiting the border crossing at Jamul....these people are not playing around. Constantly going through cargo trucks, armed and with dogs, often waiting at the end of the dirt driveways during the night--these people are serious and defy anyone to say they are not.

Thanks, Geraldo and Noam, bringing up the opposite side of the issue, for telling us the facts, but mostly thank you for your compassion towards other human beings around the world.

Geraldo Rivera: The caller said...You are a real good investigative reporter.....

The fact remains, at the end of the day, Geraldo Rivera is an excellent investigative reporter.

I think sometimes people forget that.

Geraldo's WABC on air radio partner, Noam Laden, also said it today.....you are doing a good job of trying to get the facts out there without creating panic......talking about the Ebola scare going on in our country right now and the guests Geraldo has had on his show........first a physician with the facts and then the officer who participated if fixing the catastrophe of Katrina in New Orleans...General Russell Honore.

Geraldo Rivera does favor President Obama in many ways but he would like to see a Czar in charge of the Ebola outbreak.

The caller reminded the listeners today that Texas was actually ranking 50th in the United States in terms of health care and that the CDC was a very worthy cause where financial cuts should not take place.

Last week Geraldo was impressive when he called out politician Duncan Hunter from San Diego County.....he had tried to say members of Isis had come through the southern border near San Diego into the United States.

Geraldo Rivera and Greta Van Susteran asked Ducan Hunter how will you verify these facts and he simply stated....I asked a member of the Border Patrol.

Geraldo told us...there was no way to back up these facts....it was simply false and a scare tactic of Duncan Hunter. The sad thing about this situation......it was later repeated on a San Diego radio station as fact......that is plain wrong....and it is wrong for an elected politician to use these ideas for his own gain.

Geraldo Rivera stated today and on many other occasions.....Drudge often uses scare tactics to make headlines.....the problem is that it trickles down and other commentators repeat these ideas as if it is fact.

Geraldo said this is so self-defeating.

From San Diego forever and recently in Wichita....this is an offensive statement from Duncan Hunter......the Border Patrol in San Diego do an excellent job. This protective group is dilligent and serious.

Written to Geraldo from the ronnie re....just recently I lived in Dulzura........just about 20 miles past San Diego on the way to the Tecate border. We had to go through a border patrol crossing every day.....it was extremely secure.....many, many armed personnel with dogs--these people were not playing. They were often going after people and going through cars and cargo trucks. Also, they were regularly parked all night at the end of our driveway in this rural area and there were also sensors in the ground. If anyone thinks the border patrol is not doing a serious job I challenge them to visit the area and see for themselves. Also, the border crossing on the freeway at San Ysidro is giant with a huge fence that is always patrolled which you often mention. The border patrol is all over the place in these areas.

Kudos to Geraldo Rivera for being one of the few news/talk jays that actually allows the veiwer to say their opinion.

No, I am saying he is a good person because he can take a disagreement and talk about it. Geraldo is not afraid of the caller.

San Diego radio update.......Chris Merrill going to evenings.

Also, noticed this trait with Chris Merrill of San Diego of KOGO radio 600 AM.......one of the few radio personalities that lets the person calling in talk. Also, he has varying views from his cohorts on the air. Merril is not afaraid of a caller with a disagreement.

In the long run it is a good show from both of these radio personalities.......

Asking the age old question......shall we form our own opinions or shall we only think what is shouted at us by Bill O'Reilly and then call it news.

Good job, Geraldo Rivera and Chris Merril for telling us all sides of the story.

It's good reporting and it is good news.
