From your link at the Southern Poverty Law Center owned and operated by Morris Dees:

In separate interviews with the Intelligence Report, two of Simcox's former colleagues at Wildwood and his first ex-wife gave the same account. They said that Simcox helped his daughter get a job babysitting for a Wildwood School employee and that one night, Simcox's daughter showed up unexpectedly at her employer's house, visibly upset, alleging that her father had just attempted to sexually molest her.

"He tried to molest our daughter when he was intoxicated," said Deborah Crews, Simcox's first ex-wife and the girl's mother. "When she ran out, he tried to say he was just giving her a leg massage and she got the wrong idea."

Contacted by the Report, Simcox refused to answer four direct questions about the molestation allegations. "I would never answer those questions to you. You can't ask those questions," he said. "You're on a witch hunt and you're trying to discredit our movement, which is to secure the borders. ... My personal life has nothing to do with anything that goes on here."

This Morris Dees?

Perhaps explaining the SPLC's 'Gay' rights activism, Dees was cited in 1979 by his ex-wife with a homosexual encounter during their marriage. She also cited numerous affairs with women including his daughter-in-law and underage stepdaughter.

The guy stumped for McGovern and ran as a Sierra Club candidate and now he's your source? I suggest you stick to the issue and stop participating in leftist Jerry Springer style smear tactics. It cuts both ways.

You are not doing yourself any favors when you tell yourself that all of the anger, the disappointment, and the cries of betrayal are just a bunch of trolls pretending to be conservatives. Just imagine for a moment that all the trolls and disruptors that you perceive would suddenly disappear. Do you really think that this place would suddenly become a pro-Bush utopia, with everyone rallying behind Bush? No, what would happen is you would have to face the reality that the discontent is real, and that it isn't some brilliantly orchestrated DU campaign.

The DU does itself and its party a dis-service by banning those who wish to discuss an issue they may disagree with. You go visit them and you will swear to God that the majority of Americans support democrats and hate Bush.

Because they ban like that, they live in their own world and they begin to believe it. Then, the day after the election they are TOTALLY baffled! How could they possibly have lost seats! Impossible! Everybody hates republicans! It just has to be a conspiracy and somehow the GOP stole the election...

They got lost in their own political world. They banned so many that they got a false sense of a coming politcal victory because everybody agreed with them in their little newsgroup. Such censureship is not only a recipe for a political disaster but makes for an awefully boring discussion board.

"Every witness at the trial, except the arresting officer, testified she never asked him about the gun," said Joe Heinzl, Simcox's attorney.
Hey Tex, I get where your opinion of him comes from now...the left!
I still don't know about that "mile long paper trail" though. Nothing like a "little" exaggeration is there?

Good catch. Of course, these people don't really care if their sources are credible or not, they just want to bash the Minutemen movement.

I agree with the rest but, THIS was the best shot!!

"We sure are --- we're damn sick of your arrogant attitude and your bashing of almost every elected Republican."

Thank you, Gator113!

Regrettably, it's the truth.

Well, I know just as many Republicans who can see further than the end of their noses that wouldn't dream of handing this party over to the Democrats

Great! Then we should have NOTHING to worry about.

Would you care to explain what is "so far right" about wanting illegal immigration severely curtailed? This is an overwhelmingly popular stance in this country----one of the few issues that everyone seems to agree on, with the exception of far-leftists and some of the hackier Republican party hacks.

There is not a damn thing wrong with that I was just as mad when I saw the demonstrations as you are. BUT, Bush has a soft spot Hispanics. He always has. There will be no wall on his watch and no matter how much you want to piss and moan he will not build one. Yes illegal immigration is a big problem it has been a big problem for 40 years. When I look at the things that matter to me I see that the GOP has consistently been the party that tracked my own principles. As for Bush, he is the most conservative president in my lifetime and I am well into my sixties. Yes that includes Ronald Reagan because everything that Reagan so eloquently championed with rhetoric Bush has followed with actual results.

PHOOEY!! The President's personal approval is 61% - which means the base is still with him .. even if there are things they don't like.

If anybody is moving away from the President, it's the RINO's who are afraid the dems won't like them .. sick!

Don't believe ANY POLL YOU SEE FROM THE DEMS!

Yeah. These people have interesting traveling campanions: The SPLC and foreigners who are under the dangerous delusion that they're going to take American territory away from Americans.

I'm not worried at all; I know real Republicans won't desert the party.

Whatever is being done about illegal entry into this country is not working. All I have to do to know how border policies are working is look out my kitchen window. I don't get my info from any newspaper, or any politician. I have a front row seat.

Until the border is secured anything done on this border is smoke and mirrors. Before the paperwork is done those apprehended are back in this country. I know this is hard to understand if you don't live here, but picture this- a prison with no locking doors and no perimeter fence. You can arrest all the people you want to, but it won't matter if you cannot secure them. That is how the border works. Those deported simply come right back, again and again.

Start reading the articles about crimes committed by illegals in this country. Pay careful attention to what it says- most of the time the article will say the person has already been deported more than once. Most illegals have been deported more than once- that's how it works. Catch and release sounds bad to everyone, but the truth is, deporting them is the same as catch and release without the border first being secured.

Why couldn't the right and left unite behind a party (such as libertarian) to rid ourselves of the corrupt two-party globalist/marxist cabal, while patching up little things like the open border which could have plenty of appeal to both the left and the right were the notion of 'invasion' and it's dire consequences clearly presented to all?

The special-use permit charge was later dropped, but Simcox was convicted Jan. 15 of the two remaining charges. He had faced up to 8 months in jail as a result of the conviction.

Sounds like the Jury didn't buy it.

It could be worse; "these people" could be demanding reparations.
