While American troops are hunkered down in "safe zones" in Iraq trying to stay out of an escalating civil war, our government seems oblivious to a growing threat of civil war right here in the United States. As anyone can see, millions of illegal aliens living here are becoming more vocal, more demonstrative, more belligerent, and more violence-prone by the day. Unless our government takes deliberate and significant action immediately, America could be in for serious civil unrest real soon.
It is absolutely incredible that our government would tolerate people who are not even legal residents of our country to generate the kind of mass demonstrations and protests that we are witnessing on a daily basis! It is more than incredible; it is outrageous!
According to The Christian Science Monitor (April 10, 2006), immigrants (most of them illegal) are "mobilizing for major ’action.’" Nearly 100 American cities will soon feel the brunt of this "action."
Organizers describe these coming demonstrations as "the biggest social movement of Hispanics since the United Farm Workers of Cesar Chavez." In addition, organizers predict that thousands of Muslims will also join millions of illegal Hispanics on what can only be regarded as an anti-America crusade.
The American people need to understand that the United States is under attack! No, not by Iraq or Iran, but by Mexico! Yes, Martha, you had better believe it. The Mexican government is deliberately and systematically working to destabilize and undermine the very fabric and framework of American society. And President George W. Bush and Senators John McCain and Ted Kennedy (among others) are aiding and abetting this effort.
Right now, much of Latin America is embroiled in a serious takeover by Leftist-Marxists. In all likelihood, Mexico’s next leader will be an open Leftist. Vicente Fox has helped create an increased appetite for socialism (not that Mexico ever had a true understanding of freedom and republicanism), and the next Mexican leader is certain to finish the job.
However, Fox has done more than turn his own country leftward. He has superintended over the biggest invasion of the United States in our country’s history. That’s right, invasion! A close, personal friendship with President George W. Bush has given Fox the opportunity to purposely allow (or even send) millions of criminals, thugs, anarchists, and potential terrorists to swarm over our southern border in breathtaking numbers. (As I have chronicled before in this column, nearly half of all illegal aliens currently living in the U.S. came here since Bush became president in 2000.)
Yet, while Mexican President Fox encourages and even promotes massive illegal immigration to the U.S., his own country’s constitution in Chapter 3, Article 33, states, "The Executive of the Union has the exclusive right to expel from the national territory, immediately and without necessity of judicial proceedings, all foreigners whose stay it judges inconvenient. Foreigners may not, in any manner, involve themselves in the political affairs of the country." Imagine that.
Even without the massive demonstrations by millions of foreign invaders, America is reeling from the negative effects that these people have created. In an open letter to President Bush, Ron Maxwell (writer and director of "Gettysburg" and "Gods and Generals") wrote, "Where was the concern for American schoolchildren forced to sit in overcrowded classes, for American patients forced to wait in overcrowded hospitals, for American workers whose wages are being undercut, for American drivers forced to sit in interminable traffic jams in over-whelmed freeway systems, for the victims of organized gangs, for the American college students who are turned away from publicly funded state universities, for many African Americans who are being literally displaced from their neighborhoods while being moved figuratively, once again, to the back of the bus, for those environmentalists and conservationists who want to protect open space and slow down urban sprawl, for the American taxpayers who have had to bear the burden of billions of dollars in increased welfare costs, over-burdened prisons, extra police and security and even, adding insult to injury, for bilingual education?" (Source: The Washington Times, April 6, 2006)
I trust Mr. Maxwell is not holding his breath while he waits for President Bush to respond, because Bush knows the problems his laxity and indifference have created and frankly, my dear, doesn’t give a darn!
If anything is going to be done about the illegal alien problem it will be because the American people, conservatives, liberals, moderates, independents, whites, blacks, Hispanics, Jews and Gentiles, young and old, from blue states and red states, from big cities and small farms, Christians and unbelievers stand up and in no uncertain terms demand that the Congress of the United States put a stop to it NOW!
This means making it a crime for any employer to knowingly hire an illegal alien punishable with serious fines and imprisonment for repeat offenses. It means demanding that our federal government seal our borders (especially the southern one) and stop the tide of foreign invasion immediately. If Saudi Arabia can put up a security fence between itself and Iraq (and it is doing just that), we can put one up between us and Mexico! It means to stop underwriting these foreign invaders by not paying for their health care, schooling, and food stamps. It means to stop giving them drivers licenses. It means making certain punishment worse than any potential benefit.
We can either deal with the illegal immigration problem now as described above or we will certainly deal with open civil war in the very near future. The American people better decide right now which it will be, because time is running out for Congress to be able to fix the problem. Once that happens, we won’t have to worry about civil war in Iraq, because it will happen right here in the United States.

Although it is funny that you caught the title typographical error (the only reason I clicked to read the article), I do agree with Constitution Party. I didn't even know their platform until, for a final time with the immigration deal, I was sold out by the Republican party (AGAIN) and started looking out for an alternative other than the Libertarian Party. We should all vote Constitution Party in 2006 so that we can send a message to the Republican Party that we can't afford to send in 2008.
And the hits just keep on coming.
If the illegal invaders were to allowed in legally, fingerprinted, photographed, background check, they would choose NOT to enter this Country.
If they were prevented from getting any welfare benefits
they would not enter here.
They view America as their cash cow.
Just enough to elect a majority Democrat Congress, no doubt.
I only wonder how much money the "Constitution Party" gets through laundered George Sorros channels.
Do you mean we're starting to resemble a banana republic vs. the constitutional republic we're supposed to be? Is that why all the pols keep referring to us being a 'democracy' (mobocracy) when the intent of the founders was a 'republic'? Are they that confused or is this just more hitlerian-speak of the big lie over and over until the unwashed masses accept it as truth?

That has to be one of the all time best posts depicting McCain I have ever seen.
And I used to take them serious but the ones on FR have taught me much. It's sort of like getting your investment information from the homeless.
And what has that gained for us? We have liberals called the Republicans in power doing nothing and allowing themselves to be beat up, over and over, by the minority year after year. Let's change that 1% figure by a few points in order to send the point to the Republicans in 2006 because we can't afford it in 2008.
It could be tough to pick a side here if a new civil war ever breaks out. It will be North and south , Black and White, Christians and Islamics, blacks against Mexicans, Liberal against Conservatives, Men against women, Queers against straights. Ad Nauseum ,Damn.
This turd is a nutcase.
I don't think we will worry about a Civil War. Chuck Baldwin's ASSumptions are generally WRONG, which means that this one is most assuredly inaccurate as well.
Baldwin's the biggest hysteric on the web. From what I'm reading, the May 1 boycott is going to be a big ho-hum, as most of those who might participate say they've got to work and have made their point.
I especially thought the "violence-prone" angle was the funniest. Any time you get 500,000 people together in Dallas, Texas and have NO INCIDENTS, you've got a remarkable situation. And that's exactly what we had down here.
Not even close; the NSA program didn't even cross my mind. It is inablility to sell his ideas; it is his notion of a "guest worker program" that started this Mexican revolution; it is his political correctness that has made him a fool in front of his base as well as those truly politically correct fools called Democrats; it is his, and the other Republicans' outrageous spending on non-military projects; it was the Harriet Miers nomination; it was me having to campaign for this man 6 years straight because he's a bumbling 1d!0t who refuses to stand up loudly for what he believes in; and the list can go on and on. I have never been so disappointed in something I believed in. I believed that when the Republican party took over complete control of the government, we could get things done. They have been impotent, corrupt, and sold-out.
If they were prevented from getting any welfare benefits they would not enter here.
You're delusional if you believe this.
