Washington, DC U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-Littleton) criticized Attorney General Alberto Gonzales in a letter to the Justice Department in the wake of media reports yesterday that the U.S. Marshals raided the Hawaii home of Duane Dog Chapman at the direction of the Mexican government.
A spokeswoman for the Marshals Office confirmed yesterday that an arrest warrant was signed Wednesday by a federal magistrate in Hawaii at the urging of the administration. Chapman could now be extradited to to face criminal charges for successfully capturing Max Factor heir Andrew Luster in Puerto Vallarta in 2003. Luster, who was wanted in the for rape is now serving a 124-year sentence.
This Administration routinely tells Congress that they cannot secure our borders and immigration system due to a lack of resources. We are told that the U.S. Attorneys offices in Border States are simply overwhelmed with cases and cannot prosecute all the violations even serious ones, said Tancredo.
Somehow this administration has plenty of time to track down a Mexican drug smuggler and give him immunity so he can testify against our Border Patrol agents, said Tancredo referring to the prosecution of two Border Patrol agents facing 20 years in prison for wounding a Mexican smuggler during the course of their normal duties earlier this year.
Americans are apparently supposed to happily accept presence the roughly 100,000 criminal aliens inside our borders a number that is growing every year while the Marshals use their resources to track down Dog Chapman on orders from a foreign master for successfully brining a convicted rapist to justice.
It is becoming increasingly clear that the real problem with this administrations inability to address the failures of U.S. border security policy is not so much a lack of resources as it is one of misplaced priorities, concluded Tancredo, Im beginning to wonder who is in charge of prioritizing assignments at DOJ. Is it this administration or the one in Mexico City ?
I'm sure you do.
Dog was a bounty hunter, but would it have been ok with Mexico had the person who captured the rapist done it for free?
It says this is only about ellwop.
"But in November, the country's
Supreme Court overturned a 4-year-old ban preventing extradition for
suspects who could face life without parole."
Unfortunately the law is black and white on this. Supreme Court would uphold the treaty unanimously, short of formally declaring war on Mexico. Wanna do that?
I would like to see you say that to his face.
Hell, I'd like to see you say that to his wife's face.
Like I said before on another thread, Dog'sChapman's) wife, Beth, carries a letahl weapon on her, it's her bottom.
Amazing how some on FR will come to the defense of a bail jumper who was basically granted a three year grace period, and there is tommy tancredo coming to to the defense of the bail jumper.
How low can they go... kissin' Mexico's patooty? I have a feeling it's gonna go a lot lower before it's done.
How sad for this country.
Next on the Jerry Springer Show...gratuitous politicians and the people who worship them.
I bet that you could use it for a shaving mirror.
Next on the Geraldo Springer Show...pompous mexicans and the OBL Americans that pucker up for their butts.
LOL! Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery.
...and there you go. Personal attacks are the last bastion of someone who has nothing constructive to offer to the debate. Why are you picking on his wife?
I don't even watch his program, completely not interested, but hey, leave his wife alone.
Bail jumper of MEXICAN bail!!!! Heck, I would not only come to his defense, I would give him a medal!
Uh if you would have read Eaker's reply #347, Eaker basically stated that one should be more afraid of Dog's(Chapman's) wife Beth. I agreed with him, her bottom can be used as a lethal weapon.
Oh so now we have the hillary defense.
Beth(Dog's wife) is a major component of the show, why should she be left off the hook, like the media let's hillary off the hook.
(No more Olmert! No more Kadima! No more Oslo! )
Your comments in re: the wife of this man are inappropriate, but then agein you knew that.
