What happened to my traffic?
Here's the top ten things that have caused the recent drop in visits:
10. My visitor is on vacation.
9. The FBI/SPLC/DHS have decided that monitoring me is a waste of time.
8. A shadowy cabal led by Glenn Reynolds has convinced everyone not to link to me lest they never get "Instalanched" again.
7. My visitor is on strike.
6. HarpFest2009 (reprised below) wasn't the massive traffic booster I was expecting it would be.
5. They're on to me.
4. My visitor turned out to be an agent of the Chinese government who was simply setting me up for a fall.
3. Unbeknownst to me, most of my visitors were from Canada, making this a very bad idea.
2. America is no longer interested in immigration or the "Birther" issue, meaning that in order to marginally increase my traffic I'm going to have to spend hours reading the healthcare bills.
1. America is no longer interested in a valiant crusading citizen journalist who uncompromisingly tells the truth and provides illumination where others only provide lies and fog.

Illegal immigration is still a huge issue. The birther nonsense is pointless, though, and you seem absolutely obsessed with it. It's a dry well. You'll never get anywhere with it even if there is some truth behind it. You attack tea partiers. Most of them are with you on immigration, but you alienate them by name-calling and irrational derision of them. I'm not even a tea partier, but your attacks on them annoy me. It would be like a fiscal conservative calling social conservatives knuckle-dragging Bible-thumpers. You can't kick someone who should be your ally and expect them to give a crap about you anymore. I only visit occasionally now because you provide good info on illegal immigration. Your petty quarreling and name-calling is obnoxious, though, and I'm about jump ship, too.

It's not a perfect site; show me one that is. The gist is good, which is important, and I appreciate the amount of work he puts in. When I visit I cruise by the posts that annoy or don't interest me, the tea party ones amongst them. Try doing the same. He rarely responds to comments, which he did with yours earlier.

The site is a JOKE. The author makes up all kinds of goofy facts to see who will buy into them. DON'T BE A FOOL!!! See this site for what it is: a ploy to trick xenophobes.

"You'll never get anywhere with it even if there is some truth behind it." I guess the constitution is dead, thanks to pussies like you unwilling to defend it. "The author makes up all kinds of goofy facts to see who will buy into them." Yet you fail to cite any "goofy facts." Obviosuly, a "xenophobe" is someone who wins an argument with someone too intellectually bankrupt to win an argument.

Without links to issues you talk about it makes it hard to gather all the info to address anything you mention. Your site is a complete circular jack off. No links to sources. If you want us to look into these issues and follow along we need to see the sources. Otherwise its just noise.

Nothing like liberal losers who hate their Country and fellow countrymen. What the fuck happened to you on your way to adulthood that made you such an undeserving Americans? You can care less about the 200,000+ who gave their lives for your ungrateful asses in the last 70 years. Not to mention over a million injured so you could enjoy the liberty and freedom(s) that we get all fired up about and are trying to preserve. Don't even think we will EVER change our ways.......it's in our blood and in our souls mother fucker.

You don't need a list to pore over: your traffic is low because you're a whackjob.

I check in but not as much...I don't need much more reinforcement to fight for less immigration and STOP Illegal immigration......When swine flu AND killings by narco gangs cross the border you know the government just doesn't give a hoot!

To put it bluntly your lack of linking to other websites within your cause has hurt your Google rating. Also your lack of linking to other websites within your cause has encouraged them not to link or read you as well. And yeah, the tea party bashing thing... And yeah, the fact when people tip you to videos of them confronting politicians AS YOU HAVE SUGGESTED, you not posting or responding to them. And yeah, not getting involved in your comments section with even a bit of effort. Just my opinion... ... of course it could just be a cabal effort.

1. A good part of my traffic used to be from a certain source which several months ago oddly enough dried up. 2. Every fact here is sourced, even if someone needs to follow a link to another page at this site to find it. 3. I'm not aware of anyone posting links to videos showing people asking questions for me to review, so if anyone knows what that's a reference to please re-post it here.

Mary is right and our government needs that factor of evil doers coming here for its own ends of evil. the only way to save some kind of future for your family is by force of arms against evil doers.
