It would help if you made your defense of Simcox without trying to smear those who are asking questions about his "business" practices.
And do I need to point out that it's members of his OWN organization who have made these accusations?
And do I need to point out that it's former members of his OWN organization who have made these accusations. And we all know former members never have an axe to grind.
He is responding in kind.
Howlin, I have seen the accusations myself on FR. You have not made them that I have seen, and I do not see you posting 24x7 on these threads. Although we differ on border issues, I don't think you are over-the-top here. Other folks are.

Mostly former members with an axe to grind. A lot of anti-freepers make scurrilous charges against JimRob. Do those charges carry weight because they were once freepers?
If Simcox either misses the November 15th deadline or published financials well out of line with accepted fundraising to mission spending ratios, I will join in the chorus of critics. But until then, I see a lot of opportunism and innuendo from several people with suspect agendas.
When this all started a month ago, I called the AZ representatives from MMDC. Your insinuation that it's current members/volunteers that are upset with Simcox is wrong. They have seen repeated spin cycles by folks who are anti-minutemen, anti-border security attempt to smear anyone who cares. You do recall the President called them "vigilantes" when he was in Tucson in March 05. They have a reason not to disclose information about their organization. When a standing President misrepresents your group you kind of expect the continual sliming. That does not bode well for openness and transparency.
