"If you don't find this characterization to be accurate..."
I don't know because I have no idea who you are talking about. There have been a lot of people on ths thread, could you please be specific?
I typically don't like to makes lists of people since it seems so Nazi-ish, but I'll make an exception. Before I do, allow me to state that I don't intend to be personally attacking these people. I find the majority of them to be good people, and I've enjoyed freeping with them on several other topics over the years. That said, the majority of the folks who keep these threads alive such as texasforever, catholicfreeper, dane, mo1, howlin, americaunited, prnd21, nopardons, PDR, mikefromohio, rex anderson have all been against the mainstream border security movement for some time now. Their comments in the past regarding Tom Tancredo, the Minutemen, James Sensebrenner and opponents of President Bush's immigration proposals make it clear that these folks are truly hoping that these accusations are true. If they would simply admit this upfront and not feign concern, my intelligence would not be offended and I probably wouldn't even be on these threads, as I'm not a hard-core border zealot. In fact, I agree with a bunch of the afore-mentioned freepers that the Mike Pence comprimise could be acceptable.
