Posted on 07/08/2004 4:08:45 PM PDT by truthkeeper

After being inundated with calls from L.A. listeners, Asa Hutchinson has agreed to go on the show. He's on right now, so be there or be square. Will try to type the good stuff while I listen.

"The American people are frustrated and angry regarding illegal immigration."

When did you get elected to speak for the American people?

In actuality, the issue barely registers a bleep on the radar of electoral issues, never has.

You're such a bore.Do you live in SoCA? Do you know where California is? Do you need an authority figure to make decisions for you? Is your real name Bush?

I surmise you are a staffer in either the Boxer or Feinstein office, seeing how desperately you(and John and Ken) want turn the converstaion away from them.

He's hoping Arnold's popularity is going to help him take California.

But it was YOU and YOUR political priorities - as represented by these two goofballs - that came out looking bad.

I'd say that Asa Hutchinson came out looking like a worthless government official (yes, that's redundant).

London Financial Times

OBSERVER: Homeland Security has been alerted

Financial Times; Jul 08, 2004

Asa Hutchinson, under-secretary at the Homeland Security Department, surely has a lot on his mind. Now he has to contend with the fall-out from John and Ken, the hosts of Los Angeles' most popular drive-time talk show, who told listeners to give him a piece of their mind.

Brimming with bile, they announced the White House had called to demand Hutchinson's phone number and e-mail address be removed from their KFI 640 station website.

Claiming they had been informed that "thousands" of messages were jamming the system and preventing Hutchinson from getting his job done, the hosts responded by repeating his contact details on air.

Hutchinson's first mistake, by their account, was to call off a series of sweeps by the Border Patrol - which had netted more than 400 undocumented immigrants in the LA area - and to propose that the patrolmen stick closer to the Mexican border. The duo had hailed the actions as a long-overdue counter to the flood of "illegal aliens", who, they have claimed ad nauseam, number 2m in southern California and cost taxpayers $5bn a year.

Hutchinson's second mistake was to imagine that a "swill-spewing spokeshole" (their generic term for all media officials) from the Bush administration would carry any weight with them. "We're terrified!" bawled John Kobylt, relishing the recognition. "It's John and Ken against the White House."

"Whatever, it looks like it might have paid off yesterday."

What they do at that I-5 check point could be accomplished by 4 or 5 people, the other 40+ hanging out there should be out rounding up the illegals in San Diego County not bullshitting and drinking coffee on the taxpayers dime accomplishing nothing.

They also helped with THREE STRIKES. And, they got those attorneys shut down who were shaking down hundreds of businesses.

So do nothing? Let criminals, welfare creeps, rapists,murderers, and drug dealers roam the US because is costs too much to protect the border?

John and Ken are personally responsible for getting rid of Gray Davis. Their tenacity on the recall petition was the driving force that led to the recall.

I don't agree with their usually liberal politics, but these guys are populist heroes. They don't take any cr@p from politicians. Republican or Democrat

Then how come they aren't taking either Feinstein or Boxer to task, since they are medding in Homeland Security.

They were in New Jersey before L.A. It's my understanding that they had a lot to do with the efforts to dump Jim Florio, which worked. I think they organized the toilet paper protest too.

You are the one who attacts John and Ken and NEVER comment about how Asa and gang are letting my home state turn into a third world s##thole.The conversation is not about them but about the message they are presenting to the people of SoCA. Still a bore I see.

Hutchinson has the cajones to be on their show.

When are your heroes Feinstein and Boxer going to be on their show.

Huh, I guess Feinstein and Boxer don't exist to you in this arguement.

I can understand why since you are probably one of their lackeys.

And here we have:

President touts immigration plan to Hispanic group

______________________________

SAN ANTONIO - President Bush told the nation's largest Hispanic rights group Thursday that America should make a place, albeit a temporary one, for a huge number of immigrants now working illegally in the country.

Whao also seem to never to have a bad word for their home state Senators, Feinstein or Boxer, who seem to be meddling in Homeland security. Also their biggest defenders on FR never seem to have any criticism of them either.

Y'know....you are a real pain in the a$$.

Like a broken record, you spew your bilge at anyone who DARES leave the (R) plantation, and demands that the jerks that get elected DO THE %^$#$#%^%^ JOB they SWORE an oath to do!

Yet you and a few others come sliding in to intelligent debate with your pro-ILLEGAL Immigrant crap, and all but Je$$e Jacka$$-like call FReepers RACISTS!

So, here's the deal...

YOU take them in...YOU give them YOUR home/community/land to squat (literally) on!

YOU give them all the $$$ in your wallet, then bank account...then give them YOUR job (After all, trhey are ONLY looking for a better life, right?)

And after you have done all this...see if the ILLEGAL Immigrants will love you any more, or vote en masse for GWB or any other (R)?

Till then, you have NO reason to beeytch at other FReepers who are fighting a BORDER WAR against their own DAMNED Government!!!

Arizona has seen a large increase in illegal border crossings and smuggling.

I know.

The Bush administration has dedicated more security resources to the border,

What, the drones? They still need people to go physically detain the illegals. Are they getting more agents?

although some Arizona lawmakers want to see the pace of that effort increased.

So do the residents of Arizona.

"And when the DHS has to divert some of its resources away from border enforcement into coping with an ongoing denial-of-service attack, you'll be happy, right?"

The only effort on their part to stop it is to putt all the BP agents to work doing the job they were hired for and the attacks will stop!

Yup. Of course, John and Ken also coordinated a denial-of-service attack against the Department of Homeland Security's communications.

Funny, any other time, this is called "FReeping"...right?
