==================================
Sponsored by Republican state Sen. Bill Morrow, Thursday’s meeting, titled “The Illegal Immigration Crisis,” was scheduled to include former San Diego mayor and radio talk-show host Roger Hedgecock as emcee, Colorado Congressmen Tom Tancredo, Minuteman Project founder James W. Gilchrist, attorney and author Madeleine Cosman, and former U.S. Attorney Pete Nunez.

You're obviously familiar with those charming communities. I just happen to live in one of them, which is why I'm so furious about illegal immigration. Send the Bush ladies to me! I'll give 'em a tour of my town and open up their sheltered little eyes. Then, if we all survive, I'll tell 'em to go back to Daddy or Bushie and tell him what they've seen. And tell him that this time, it really is "Bush's fault."
I just sent him an email.
I guess if activists can't get their way by using the racist label, they can do so by threatening violence.
Good !
There is a piece in this morning's Register regarding unseemly activities in Santa Ana...
LA Times blurb on FEC complaint against KFI's John & Ken (And copy of the complaint itself)
**************************************************************
Update: A copy of the FEC complaint itself can be found here. (PDF file - Adobe Acrobat required)
Update II: Explanation of why this a frivolous complaint below.
Update III: Debate over Political Human Sacrifice continues at Free Republic and now over at Lucianne.com. The wires have now picked up the story. More coverage here.
Small blurb in the LA Times today about this:
The Battle Over the Airwaves I
Stung by a radio campaign to oust veteran Rep. David Dreier, the National Republican Congressional Committee has filed a federal elections complaint. It contends that an ongoing campaign by a pair of radio talk-show hosts represents an illegal contribution to Dreier's opponent.
Dreier (R-San Dimas) has been taking a beating at the hands of radio hosts John Kobylt and Ken Chiampou of KFI-AM (640) radio in Los Angeles. They have launched an on-air campaign to oust the 24-year veteran for what they claim is a lax record on illegal immigration. Dreier's opponent, Cynthia Matthews, has appeared on "The John and Ken Show" during the campaign.
The radio hosts say they have offered to have Dreier appear on their show to defend his record on illegal immigration, but he has declined. Kobylt called the complaint "absurd" said he and Chiampou did not plan to retreat from their efforts to oust Dreier.

Meanwhile, the discussion over at Free Republic about this topic is worth checking out. It seems to mirror the sharp disagreements by the readers of this blog as well as the other sites that discuss the merits of Political Human Sacrifice.
Update II: It should be obvious to anyone reading the complaint itself that
it is frivolous on its face.
But for those who need extra convincing, here are the relevant parts of the campaign finance laws:
When used in this Act...
(8)(B) The term ''contribution'' does not include -
(i) the value of services provided without compensation by any individual who volunteers on behalf of a candidate or political committee;...
(9)(B) The term ''expenditure'' does not include -
(i) any news story, commentary, or editorial distributed through the facilities of any broadcasting station, newspaper, magazine, or other periodical publication, unless such facilities are owned or controlled by any political party, political committee, or candidate;"
(f)(3)(B)(i)The term �electioneering communication�
does not include�[A] communication appearing in a news story,
commentary, or editorial distributed through the facilities of any broadcasting station, unless such facilities are owned or controlled by any political party, political committee, or candidate"
(emphasis added)

I think this was over Ken and John putting the heat on Drier about his reluctance to address immigration issues.....

Represents the 38th Senate District -- a district that includes a portion of South Orange County and much of North San Diego County.
Drier has morphed from a conservative that I knew 30 years ago into a genuine rino!
So the threat of violence is from illegal alien supporters?!?! And they're backing down?!?!?!?! This has gone on way too long!
