HAWLEY, PA (April 25, 2006) – 9/11 Families for a Secure America member Peter Gadiel, along with other families who lost loved ones to murders committed by illegal aliens, held a rally at the White House Monday to deliver over 570,000 petition signatures to demand that President Bush enforce immigration laws. Gadiel, who lost his son, Jason Gadiel, on 9/11 in the north tower of the World Trade Center, 103rd floor, made the following statement:
“Families of Americans murdered by illegal aliens held a rally outside the White House on Monday, April 24th, to demand that the president start enforcing immigration law. Also present were Roy Beck and staff members of Numbers USA who had collected over 570,000 signatures on petitions to the president asking him to enforce US immigration law and stop the invasion of illegal aliens.
“We attempted to deliver these petitions to the White House, and after the Secret Service contacted Administration officials, the message was relayed to us that Mr. Bush's minions would not accept them.
“It was not particularly surprising to us, given the president's longstanding policy of refusal to enforce the law; his disregard for the security of the nation and the contempt he has shown for those of us who have seen our loved ones murdered by illegals, or raped, shot or otherwise victimized.
“Nevertheless, each additional refusal by this man who professes a belief in God and has sworn an oath on the Bible to ‘preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, so help me God,’ is a further reminder that this president is little different from his discredited predecessor, Bill Clinton.
“The foundation for the 9/11 attacks was prepared by al Qaeda during the Clinton Administration and principal responsibility for America's failure to prevent the attacks lies with Clinton, Albright, Reno and Jaime Gorelick. However, Mr. Bush's refusal to take even minimal action to stop the foreign invasion that has continued during the five and a half years of his term shows that he has as little concern for the security of Americans as Clinton. When there is another terrorist attack, Bush will have to accept full responsibility.
“We were informed later in the day that Mr. Bush had spoken in Orange County, California and that Republican Representative Dana Rohrabacher refused to speak on the same program with him, saying that the president had sold out to the cheap labor lobby. We applaud Mr. Rohrabacher's integrity and good judgment.”
Ouch. The truth indeed does hurt.
Keep sticking that pin and where can I sign one of those petitions??
The link doesn't go to the article or there is something wrong at the webpage. Do you have a working link?

SUSSA, please pardon the ring. The link is fine.
Yeah, right, and it rained tonight.
this everything is Bush's fault is getting tiring
Do these people realize they aren't winning anyone over this this kind of talk
“We attempted to deliver these petitions to the White House, and after the Secret Service contacted Administration officials, the message was relayed to us that Mr. Bush's minions would not accept them.
What are you refuting and calling crap?
Bushites continue digging their own damn graves.
Ping.
Have at it, the floor is yours. LOL!
I don't care what kind of group they are the fact remains we are not protecting our own borders.
570,000 Americans who say no to amnesty
3,000 Americans lost their lives because of illegal aliens
what's it going to take for Americans to be heard and be assured that our govt is doing all they can for a secure America?
I'm curious as to whether you/DC Chapter of Free Republic joined Beck/Secure America in his attempt to deliver his petiton to the Whitehouse after your demonstration?
No, we didn't. I heard they were refused, but I didn't witness it. The turnout for this one was small, maybe a couple dozen.
So it is official, the DC Chapter is now a hate Bush group.
