An Open letter to every elected member of the federal government
6/29/2007 | Me

Posted on 06/29/2007 5:56:13 AM PDT by Bigun

For years now we have been subjected to a steady drumbeat of “it cannot be done” from you with regard to enforcement of our existing immigration laws. We are sick and tired of such and will not tolerate it any longer! You will NEVER convince us that although we can put men on the moon we cannot secure our own borders. That is sophistry of the first order and every one of you is fully aware of the fact.

Enough! Stop it NOW!

Article II Section 3 of the United States Constitution requires that the president …“shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed…”

Every single one of you have sworn to "...support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same;..."

Get to it!

Secure the borders!

Enforce the law!

No way, Jose.

But there will be a full-court press for resurrection of the 'Fairness Doctrine,' for AM radio only.

Now is not the time to let up. We need to pressure our politicians to enforce the existing immigration laws including deporting illegal aliens, building the fence and prosecuting businesses who do business with illegal aliens. The link below is a ping list to pay attention for other questionable legislation being considered in Congress.

Fine, then perhaps we’ll have more FM talk radio. I hate the static anyway.

"An Open letter to every elected member of the federal government"

I would like to add "and their appointees".

Find out where your Congress Critter will be marching on July 4th. If he is marching in a parade, make a sign.

WHERE IS THE FENCE?
CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW?
DO YOU LIKE YOUR JOB?

If your guy is holed up at private fundraisers (that’s what mine have planned), call the press, the TV, talk radio. Make them come out of their spidey holes and face the voters.

It’s not over. I am more outraged this morning than I was yesterday. How did it come to this? Those Senators tried to stab me and mine right in the back. I want some answers. NOW.

Listen fellow readers. The government willfully and purposefully allowed the problem to become a major problem, so that they could pretend to solve it while at the same forcing on us laws that we don’t want, all “for our own good”.

Now they will let become an even bigger problem so that they can say that “it’s out of control, we gotta do something real fast”, and pass laws that hurt us more.

Would you be kind enough to add the words “and their appointees” to the end of the title of this thread?

Dude, you're nuts.

Expecting that the laws that are in place actually be enforced?

It’s pretty simple, isn’t it?

Nothing “comprehensive” need be done to seal the southern border - just a double fence that is patrolled and fixed if damaged.

Next, ALLOW (and enforce) employers to verify legal status of employees.

Next, ALLOW law enforcement to verify legal status of those they have contact with, and enforce our deportation laws.

IF, IF, IF, there is a labor shortage when these measures are taken, allow more VERIFIED workers to cross through our border portals, legally.

I say “ALLOW” above, because leftist groups like the ACLU who seek the destruction of American society will fight these measures at every turn.

IMO, it’s past time to start thinking about WHY it is that the ruling class was so hot for the amnesty bill. Until you understand their motivations, what they do to us won’t make sense.

If our laws are such that enforcement is a matter of whim or self interest then we have no laws whatsoever and we will reap a whirlwind.

A ciizens movement is now beyond its initial stages to enforce the immigration laws as they exist. Imagine members of the Minutemen being arrested by the FBI and going to court with the defense: "The President has not executed his oath of office, and it is our right and duty to do what our government refuses to do."

We are on the verge of vigilante-ism to fight a border war which actually exists as we speak.

There IS a border war going on NOW. Thats what the government does not get.

Dear Senators,

As you may now realize, Americans are very determined to see that our Southern Border gets secured, and we are preparing to embark on a major email, letter, FAX, and phone call campaign, every bit as vociferous as the one to defeat the Immigration Bill, to make sure that this happens.

So, consider this email a Heads-Up as to what is in store for the Senate, Homeland Security, and this Administration.

In this very temporary interim, between now, and the beginning of this highly embarassing Citizen Campaign, think of the prestige, and integrity, that might be regained by the Senate, if you Senators began this Border Security process without an extreme amount of pressure from your constituents.

Thank You.

Sincerely,
