If indeed the Daily Bulletin report is inaccurate, as several have already pointed out to me, I suggest simply deleting the few sentences in my previous post which contain the words 'Minutemen' and 'Border Patrol'...

With that said, I stand by the remaining 95% of my post. The conclusions are the same, with or without today's story: We have been, and continue to be, betrayed by leadership at the top, in the ways I described. And if you, sinkspur (and others), choose to view holding such an opinion as donning 'warpaint,' so be it. As I said in a post a few weeks ago, I have not been calling for a revolution. I have been begging our leadership to lead, so as to avoid one.

My pleading, at that of millions of others, is falling on deaf ears.

Dan Rather?

I have posted almost nothing related to this report because even if true, it is just a small part of a much larger problem. A lot of bozos on this forum are acting like Bush is somehow vindicated on his immigration stance if this turns out to be true, hoping that others might be stupid enough to believe them.

Disgusting isn't it?

And why is this not on a sidebar....we have fluff crap on sidebars but hardly ever anything on illegals or border issues.

That is no different than CNN coloring the news.

Precisely. This particular story is merely the most current straw placed atop a very large pile of similar straws. While it is important to verify the veracity of this story, if it is tossed out tomorrow as untrue that changes nothing. The federal government understands quite well that it has a "trust problem" with the American people.
