On Aug. 12, New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson declared a state of emergency "due to a chaotic situation involving illegal alien smuggling and illegal drug shipments" on his southern border. Three days later, Gov. Janet Napolitano followed suit in Arizona.
Reason: the crisis on the border. The ally-ally-in-free immigration policy of George Bush and Vicente Fox, beloved of corporate America, has created a hell on our southern border.
Those Southwestern states are being inundated by illegal aliens trashing ranches, killing cattle, committing crimes and eating up tax dollars. The traffic in narcotics and human beings from Mexico is a national scandal and a human rights disgrace.
What is true of New Mexico and Arizona is true of our nation, which is now home to an estimated 10 million to 15 million aliens who have broken our laws and broken into our country. It is a mark of the cowardice of our . . .

Uh, I am not real happy with the situation either, but a high crime and misdemeanor it ain't.
Ohhhhh...for Chr@#! sake...how long has W been in his second term? Anyone, anyone, anyone? And exactly how long has immigration been a problem? And I am sure...someone watched the DHS chief speak of the impending proposal dubbed, dubiously, enough "The final solution on immigration"
Jesus, not like the man's got a war to fight are crazed protestors to put up with.
I really think we need a strong and swift response to this immigration problem, including the ability to use lethal force if necessary.
Kooksville is an imaginary land.
I see poor Pat has been visiting Planet Zongo again. What a Noodle!
Classic Pat.......the fact that the Bush's et al might not want dirty looks from the country club help is about the most plausible explanation I've seen on this idiotic policy (or lack of).
I won't consider impeachment until an attack comes and is proven to be the result of lax border control.
PJB is absolutely right !
What exactly do you object to in this article?
Would an alka-seltzer enema wake up Pat's brain?
The state of emergency is a joke, it was all politics, there policies haven't changed.
Richardson is still for illegals having driver's licenses, the dem governor of arizona vetoed prop 200.
The only solution for the border is a wall and the dem enviornmental pro illegal governors are for it.
What good is this fake state of emergency if the governors are against a wall on the border.
Only if you can show mw where other presidents have been threatened with impeachment over this issue; either Republican; Democrat or Other.
Mainly the notion of impeaching the President over policy disagreements.
Some adivce to tom tancredo and his supporters on FR.
Run away, run away as fast you can from the DC media whores(pat and bay buchanan).
#13 mw = me
Would 9/11 qualify? They were in our country illegally, with forged documents.
If a large terrorist attack happens again it might be a tipping point for all the Lefties and whackos out there looking for an impeachment.
"They were in our country illegally, with forged documents."
Not that I was aware of.
"I won't consider impeachment until an attack comes and is proven to be the result of lax border control."
you posted this before i could. i agree 100%....
i think pat is doing this for pure shock value.
btw, i'll bet pat has seen Travis' posts where he quotes the constitution.... 'Twice, George Bush has taken an oath to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." Article IV, Section 4 of that Constitution reads, "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against invasion."'
