Yeah, that minutemen founder is a pillar of righteousness, isn't he?

Gilchrist’s “schtick” is MONEY. You pay, he plays. And he plays damn dirty.

Huckabee Campaigner and Minuteman threatening e-mail Scandal
The Huckabee campaign faces national scandal today, as recent e-mails sent by Minuteman Co-Founder and Huckabee campaign member Jim Gilchrist are released that threaten to malign another leader with false accusations of child molestation, pedophilia, embezzlement, and thievery!

The e-mail threat was received by Brook Young of the organization Immigration Watchdog, who is one of the 84 leaders who signed an open letter opposing the Gilchrist endorsement of Presidential candidate Mike Huckabee.

Jim Gilchrist has endorsed Mike Huckabee and has been traveling on the Huckabee campaign media bus across Iowa making speeches of support at Huckabee’s side, at campaign press conferences and events. Gilchrist has also been on numerous talk radio shows promoting the Huckabee campaign as a highly visible part of the campaign in the national media.

“It is completely outrageous that a person so highly involved with the Huckabee campaign is sending e-mails threatening to malign an opposing organization leader with false accusations of child molestation,” says William Gheen of ALIPAC. “Huckabee and Gilchrist need to explain why a Presidential campaign is involved in these kinds of documented threats and vile mud slinging.”

The e-mail from Gilchrist, which threatens to malign Brook Young is on full display at ImmigrationWatchdog.com and ALIPAC.us

Mr. Gilchrist also sent out an “article” or press release to the Minuteman Project national e-mail list last night that contains many supposed quotes by Mike Huckabee that appear to answer all criticisms of the Huckabee immigration plan and record. The author is listed as “Perry Emerson, for Jim Gilchrist” yet initial research can find no proof that a Perry Emerson works for Jim Gilchrist or the Minuteman Project. The name only shows up on articles released by Minuteman Project, which contain topics that are attacks on others.

Google searches on the alleged quotes by Mike Huckabee, such as “I would make it my first act as president to pardon agents Ramos and Compean” show no results other than the Gilchrist release. The Huckabee campaign can provide no written evidence that Huckabee made these comments.

“Official campaign statements on important matters like immigration should be made directly by the campaign and not by proxy,” says William Gheen. “We will continue to look for evidence that Perry Emerson actually exists. If Mr. Gilchrist is putting out official statements under a false name and citing statements Huckabee did not make, then ‘Houston we have a problem.’”

ALIPAC is calling on the Huckabee campaign to officially confirm or deny the authenticity of the claims made in the Minuteman Project release and to clarify if Mr. Gilchrist is acting on behalf of the Huckabee campaign in his threats to spread false rumors of a graphic nature about organizations that oppose the Presidential campaign of Mike Huckabee.

William Gheen has notified ALIPAC activists and allied leaders about this situation through a letter titled, “The Madness of Jim Gilchrist” which is also found at www.alipac.us

I don’t know a bunch of back and forth among people who claim he said no she said no he said no she said, or didn’t say, as the case may be.

Here is the Gilchrist quote in describing Perry’s border stance. The words themselves. That’s all I have. The words themselves should be heard.

By the founder of the Minutemen, Jim Gilchrist. What he did or did not do or say or not say after founding Minutemen, I don’t know.

But you seem so god-like in your pronouncements from mt olympus, nevertheless, I don’t fear anyone when I simply post the words of the man who founded Minutemen:

“Of all the Republican candidates he’s [Perry] the one who stands out the most on wanting to deal with this issue [border security] and put it to bed and resolve the problems”

In your world everyone is evil personified who supports Rick Perry.

They all pay to play, or else are just stupid. You will advance anything against them you can. Doesn’t matter what it is.

You must destroy them.

I get it.

Then, there is Saint Sarah Palin. Anything for that cause. Anything. No limits.

We’ve come to understand, and we proceed accordingly.

As for myself, I would vote for Sarah Palin or Rick Perry.

I took Michele off my list when she pushed the meme that girls in Texas were forcibly injected with Gardasil and that Gardasil was implicated in causing retardation in a heretofore normal child because she said a mother came up to her claiming that.

I would have voted for Cain as well, until now I hear he was for Romney before and would support Romney now, but would not even support Perry against Obama. Now those are problems with him I didn’t know about before.

I will check further about Mr. Cain before finalizing my list of choices.

But against Obama, I will support our nominee even if I can’t stand them, and support our nominees for House and Senate.
