The Daily Caller interview we did last week has resulted in a welcome flood of new readers.

You have arrived at a point (mentioned here a few days ago) where I am planning to take a break and return writing shorter posts more frequently (if possible! because there is so much news on “refugees” now) and will use links to direct you to some of our previous 5,000 plus posts for background.  I’m pretty sure you can set up a digest if you find you are receiving too many e-mails in a day.

If you have just arrived and want to learn more, my best suggestion is to use our search window.  For example, you might type in your city or state and see what we have written about where you live.  LOL!  I don’t recommend typing in just ‘Somalis’ though unless you want to see a list of at least 500 posts on that subject!

I notice some of you are checking our ‘your state’ category which we have been remiss in keeping up.  So, it’s best to type your state into the search window as I just mentioned.

And, I apologize in advance for not being able to answer all of your e-mails.  Put something catchy in the subject line, or put a question there so I might see it more easily.

My break is over!  Welcome!

I was honored to be interviewed by Ginni Thomas for her “Leaders” series last week.  You can see the 22-minute interview by clicking here. (May take a few seconds to load video, or at least it does on my computer!).

Here is some of the text introduction:

As Labor Day looms, President Obama’s immigration policy looks to become a war on American workers. Without prioritizing who’s allowed to come to America, former liberal Ann Corcoran says “the American worker loses. The numbers are too high. We can’t assimilate this many people.”

Marylander Ann Corcoran, who says she was “tea party” before the movement existed, has written a daily blog, as a volunteer activist, at Refugee Resettlement Watch for the last seven years to inform and engage citizens.

Refugee Resettlement Watch is a small but growing daily blog focused on how the government has resettled over 3 million refugees since 1975. Without any financial backing, she is doing what the media and Congress have failed to do – tracking how a federal program is functioning. Corcoran, who has published over 2,500 [5,868–ed] posts now, says “the open border left wants no borders.” And those involved with resettling refugees with the U.N. and Washington want no scrutiny of this program.

Continuing something we began several weeks ago, here is information about how we did this week.

Our numbers are down a little, but not that much considering that this is probably the most important vacation time outside of Christmas when most people just want to escape from having to consider thorny issues.  Although I must say the news is pretty awful this August and hard to get away from.

Our top three most-visited posts this past week (out of 5,855 posts we have written!) were:

1.  Our fact sheet.

2.  One more reason for foreign nationals to continue to stay in the US—Ebola.

3.  Athens, GA mayor attempting to put brakes on proposed resettlement of refugees.

You can see our daily ‘top posts’ in the right hand sidebar (just below ‘recent posts’).  For our previous weekly reviews, go here.

By the way, I had to laugh.  A commenter somewhere (I forget where) said that RRW was a useful resource but strangely organized.  I don’t remember the exact words (I think ‘strange’ was the word used), but wonder what is so strange about it?  LOL! It is perfectly organized in my head.  We have categories, and tag clouds and we have 5,855 posts!  How else could we organize it?  And, besides, readers can simply type in a few key words in the search window and quickly find anything we have written on a specific topic going back seven years.  What more could you want from a free educational resource?

The best way to keep up with this complicated material is to read our posts every day filled with many links to previously reported information!

Apologies to all who e-mail and comment, sorry if I don’t respond much, there are just not enough hours in my day (no secretaries, no assistants and no interns here!).

A few weeks ago, we started a Friday round-up of sorts to bring to your attention the posts that garnered the most visitors in the preceding week.  You can see those previous reports in our category entitled blogging.

1. The most read post of the week was:  Our fact sheet

2. Owners of dogs which killed jogger were asylum frauds, should have been deported by now

3.  And just posted yesterday, the most important news of the week in my opinion:  US State Dept. contractor resettles first Syrian Sunni Muslims to Georgia

Top ten countries this past week in the number of visitors from outside the US (last week’s top ten are here—July our top month in seven years!):

Australia

Canada

UK

Thailand

South Africa

Malaysia (new this week in the top ten)

Germany

Jamaica (new this week)

India

Denmark (new this week)

Why do we do this charitable work almost every day?

Because you have a right to know what the government and their contractors plan for your community!  And, because you need to know that border invasions are happening around the world.

It occurs to me that I do see everyone’s comments to posts because we do screen them (no foul language, no threats), so if you have something you want me to see, I don’t at all mind if you send the link as a comment to a post, even if it’s a little off-topic.
