This issue has been talked about for some time on the Yahoo Groups associated with border issues, but no one seems to be able to come up with the document that proves the orders were given. Most likely they received verbal orders. The Bureaucrats/Politicians who do contrary acts against the law know it's stupid to put it in writing.

This issue has been talked about for some time on the Yahoo Groups associated with border issues, but no one seems to be able to come up with the document that proves the orders were given. Until that document is made public, this story will be nothing more than an allegation and the legitimate press will not touch it. But I would like to see the document found and shown on the air, and then watch the heads begin to roll. There's never going to be a "document". These are verbal orders. And a dozen Agents isn't good enough for you? Are you saying Jerry Seper and Ben Anderson are just making this up?
As for legitimate press, what do you think The Washington Times is? Would CBS somehow be more legitimate?

Some enterprising reporter needs to ask that dolt Press Secretary McClellan if this story is true. I'd like to know if the so-called "Homeland Security" Dept. gave this directive. Perhaps our president could get off his bike in the middle of the day and look into this. I am losing my patience with this do-nothing second term.

Why is Bush 'worthy' of the double standard in the wink and a nod department? Is it because he's not sKerry, not a demoncrap, not someone we voted against? He's not, and he should be held to task if he is not upholding laws that do not meet his policy objectives. A practice the US Executive Branch loves to play.
Rarely in life, can you can find a politician that you agree with 100%, so you have to compromise. The old cliche "Pick your poison."

Oh right, the Libertinearians. You'd be the guys who think this is a good idea. Not all of us, Adam. I'm livid.

I think we should donate our Constitution to Iraq. They need a good one, and we don't use it much anymore anyway. Quote of the day.

U.S. Border Patrol agents have been ordered not to arrest illegal aliens along the section of the Arizona border where protesters patrolled last month because an increase in apprehensions there would prove the effectiveness of Minuteman volunteers, The Washington Times has learned.Our President actually favors criminal illegal invasion.
I guarentee you, ANY Democrat they run on an anti-illegal-invasion platform wins in 2008.
Bush has gone beyond 'wrong about an issue' all the way up to 'derelict in his duty'.

I just copied the first part of this article and sent it to Senator Cornyn of Texas requesting that his office look into this charge and asked that he either come out for the sealing of the border and the enforcement of the laws concerning employment of illegals or he do the right thing and come out and announce that he is for open borders and no enforcement of our laws. It is republicans like Cornyn that are the real problem.

See now if Martha Stewart renamed herself Lourdes Messera and flew the tricolor over her Rancho, she would have never been charged.

Heads Up, Californians!
For those who don't already know this, the Minuteman Project will be in San Diego in June.

I was having a very nice day until I read this. Now I'm so mad I might stroke out. Glad to be leaving town today and getting away from all things political at least for the weekend....

The faster the illegals can get themselves a utility bill and social security number the less they'll hold up the line for the rest of us..
:-) I like a person who can find the silver lining!

It is time again to write our Congresscritters, www.senate.gov & www.house.gov . It is time again to write and call the WhiteHouse, www.whitehouse.gov . It's time to contact the Department of Homeland Security, http://www.dhs.gov/dhspublic/contactus on the failures and shenianigans of border security. Please encourage your congresscritters to reject Mccain's and Kennedy's new immigration bill that would get the ball rolling on the guest worker program which was tried in 1986 and only worsened the problem. Call the Department of Homeland Security at Operator Number: 202-282-8000
Comment Line: 202-282-8495. What's the latest news on the MinuteMen? I heard they will go after employers who hire people here illegally -- good.

i really hope and pray this isnt true. if it is, i will lose all faith and trust in the republican party. im totally absolutely speechless. it seems the republican party is out of control. ive been annoyed with their not-so conservative policies of late and this may bring it over the top now - theyre no better than democrats.
