A growing number of Minuteman Civil Defense Corps leaders and volunteers are questioning the whereabouts of hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of dollars in donations collected in the past 15 months, challenging the organization's leadership over financial accountability.
Many of the group's most active members say they have no idea how much money has been collected as part of its effort to stop illegal entry -- primarily along the U.S.-Mexico border, what it has been spent on or why it has been funneled through a Virginia-based charity headed by conservative Alan Keyes.
Several of the group's top lieutenants have either quit or are threatening to do so, saying requests to Minuteman President Chris Simcox for a financial accounting have been ignored....."
"..... The Minuteman organization has not made any financial statements or fundraising records public since its April 2005 creation. It also has sought and received extensions of its federal reporting requirements and has not given the Minuteman leadership, its volunteers or donors any official accounting. A financial statement promised to The Times by Mr. Simcox for May was never delivered....."

King is just another Tancredo sock puppet. Wrong.
But that would make you a La Raza/MEChA sock puppet then.

EV for there to be 3000 murders by Illegals this year it would have to be almost 10 per day every day. Where are the reports of 10 murders a day involving illegals?

His last political campaign was such a disaster that his far left opponent was freed up to stop campaigning for himself and run around the country raising money for other Democrat candidates, and still beat Keyes by a massive margin....Keyes' brilliant analysis of gay issues included the gem where he explained that gays shouldn't be allowed to adopt children because they wouldn't know who their biological parents were, and thus might inadvertently end up committing incest when they grew up.Don't forget his support for slavery reparations! A real conservative position!

That's right. Get out of lockstep with the Minutia Men, Simcox or Tancredo, you're a tool of La Raza.
DON'T PAY ANY ATTENTION TO THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN!!!
Out.

Ok 2. What about the rest? You appear to be getting more and mores desperate.

He's the one who called Rep. Steve King, one of the most conservative Republicans in Congress, a "Tancredo sock puppet". I simply responded in kind to demonstrate the absurdity of the accusation.

If you read what Chris stated then you would understand one doesn't go and build a fence in the middle of the summer in Arizona nor without making sure everything is totally legal. What happened to the other 7.5 miles of the Ladd's cattle fence? It was supposed to be completed (including vehicle barriers, cameras, etc.) by the end of June.
Where is it?

Where are the reports of 10 murders a day involving illegals? I see them constantly. You should watch the news.
Do you know any families who have lost loved ones to illegals? I do.
The perps often flee back south, where they are protected by the Mexican government.
To: EternalVigilance
One less excuse in the Simcox quiver. Pretty soon he'll run out of excuses and actually have to build something!

Whatever.
You meant it.
You've said similiar in the past.
And beyond that Tancredo is a sock-puppet of whomever can get him more exposure for his Quixotic Presidential Campaign. Right now it's the Minutia Men, next week who knows?
To: EternalVigilance
I see them constantly. You should watch the news. LOL Ya'll plaster this site with articles every time an illegal spits on the sidewalk. I would expect to see at least 10 murders per day all over FR.

As we all know, everyone in this conversation is squeaky clean and is willing to prove it when asked, right? LOL
To: Texasforever
I love how you state your spurious allegations as fact. It's so Clintonian.

By the way, Drudge has picked up the story. It is under "Cash Vanish".
