Changes on the Horizon?
more promotion of the Hildabeest, Mssrs. Bush?
Alrighty thennnn… The race is on: which party will pick up the hot potato of Secured Borders, start by calling it “American Values,” and win in ‘08? And what else will they tack on to that phrase and expect us to swallow? And how much of it will we swallow just to get our borders secured?
Gilchrist and Simcox are in DC with other Minuteman Project volunteers having held a rally in Lafayette Park on Monday [one (1) article] and a conference at the Press Club on Tuesday [zero (0) articles].
"We are demanding, not asking, for secure and safe borders. We are demanding, not asking, for the enforcement of existing immigration laws,” Mr. Simcox told the cheering crowd. “We will remain on duty until we are relieved by Humvees filled with National Guard or U.S. military troops."
“In the absence of the federal government doing its mandated duty to secure our borders, we will pick up the slack. Reluctantly…
“We shouldn’t have to be doing this… But at this point, we will continue to grow this operation—also to the northern border."
Yep—sounds lie one o’ them frothing-at-the-mouth, racist vidgee-lantees I keep hearin’ about. Wow—listen to him rant and rave.....
“We’re not supportive of vigilantes,” said Dan Whiting, spokesman for Sen. Larry Craig, R-Idaho. “We can empathize with the need for border security, but we need to do it the right way."
A United States Senator [Larry Craig, R-Idaho] can empathize with the need to enforce the laws he and his legislative body made. Well, isn’t that fine....
Yesterday, as the Lafayette Park crowd raised placards and chanted “Thank you, Minutemen,"
Same as the ranchers in the Naco area…
Mr. Simcox reported that 15,000 new volunteers are ready to begin civilian patrols in October of the U.S.-Mexico border from California to Texas, with others being set for limited vigils in Michigan, Idaho and Vermont.
"The Minuteman Project proved a physical presence on the border will deter illegal immigration,” Mr. Simcox told The Washington Times. “It also proved the Mexican government, when it wants to, can control immigration on its side of the border.” The Mexican government transported the would-be border crossers to Aqua Prieta, 25 miles east, and Nogales, 80 miles west, where illegal-alien totals later skyrocketed.
