Man!! I never have the money to do to this when it rolls around each year. I'm so bummed out!!
Will do. AND... I am going to beg like a starving dog for him to run for President.
Just got this Warning:
BIG NEWS COVERAGE....................
LOTS OF TV COVERAGE....................
5,000 NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS ON THE BORDER..................
MEANWHILE BACK AT THE RANCH THE SENATE WILL QUIETLY PASS AMNESTY FOR 20 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS................
AND THEN THE NATIONAL GUARD WILL BE GONE !!!!
/////////////////////
EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW THAT THE NATIONAL GUARD IS TIED UP IN IRAQ.
THE NATIONAL GUARD WAS NEVER SET UP TO DO PERMANENT GUARD DUTY. THIS WILL DESTROY ITS MEMBERS LIVES AND THEY WILL QUIT. THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS SUPPOSED TO FUND THE BORDER PATROL. THE NATIONAL GUARD IS SET UP FOR NATURAL DISASTERS AND STATE USES. THE STATES EXPECT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO PAY FOR THIS. THERE IS NO FUNDING IN PLACE.
THIS IS A SMOKESCREEN TO PASS AMNESTY....................AMERICA IS BEING SOLD OUT!

Yep, leave it in God's hands.
That's good news so far JP.
Updates appreciated.
Lou Dobbs Report. . .
Turning to another national security issue, our illegal immigration and border security crisis, leaders of the Senate today announced they've approved a new compromise agreement that would ultimately give amnesty to millions of illegal aliens in this country. The agreement is supported by corporate America, lobbyists, of course, and special interests who are determined to allow illegal aliens to enter the country unlawfully and to remain.

About 1/2 way down transcript:
LISA SYLVESTER, CNN CORRESPONDENT(voice over): Senators Bill Frist and Harry Reid reached a gentleman's agreement that paves the way for the Senate to resume immigration reform Monday.
SEN. HARRY REID (D-NV), MINORITY LEADER: This is going to take a lot of work. We have a lot of amendments. This is not a -- this is not a two or three-amendment bill.
SEN. BILL FRIST (R-TN), MAJORITY LEADER: The process that has been laid out is one that we both feel is very fair.
SYLVESTER: Under the compromise, Reid and Frist agreed to take up the Hagel-Martinez bill that creates a three-tiered system. Illegal aliens who have been in the United States for five years or longer would be given amnesty. Those here between two and five years would be allowed to work and eventually gain citizenship. Those here less than two years would be told to leave.
Representative Tom Tancredo says there will be rampant fraud, adding, "No illegal alien with half a brain would admit they came here after 2004."
REP. TOM TANCREDO (R), COLORADO: I think that this is a lousy deal, and that I think that Senator Frist was bullied into it by Senator Reid, who essentially was allowed to set the rules.
Bump, and thanks for the ping!

One Reporter's Opinion: Border Patrol Opposes Minutemen
George Putnam
Friday, May 12, 2006
It is this reporter's opinion that the American people owe a debt of gratitude to Sara Carter of the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin in Ontario, Calif. She is the brilliant young reporter who exposed the fact that our government told the Mexican government the activities and positions of the Minutemen and other patriotic groups monitoring the illegal invasion across our borders.
While the Minutemen civilian patrols are keeping an eye out for the illegal border crossers, one of our own government agencies, the U.S. Border Patrol, is keeping an eye on the Minutemen and telling the Mexican government where they are.
We have the documents – three of them – appearing on the Web site of the Mexican Secretary of Foreign Relations, which reads:
The U.S. Border Patrol is to notify the Mexican government as to the location of Minutemen and other civilian border patrol groups when they participate in apprehending illegal immigrants and if and when violence is used against border crossers.
The administration is on a collision course with a foreign government against American citizens trying to protect our country. As Pat Buchanan puts it, "It is one thing for the president to support open borders. It is quite another thing for the administration to aid and abet illegal aliens."
Hardly had Sara Carter released this bombshell than the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency refuted the Daily Bulletin. The agency stated, "Today's report by the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin that the U.S. is tipping Mexico to Minutemen patrols is inaccurate."
James Gilchrist and Chris Simcox, founders of the Minutemen, along with T.J. Bonner pPresident of the National Border Patrol Council) and Andy Ramirez (Friends of the Border Patrol) and a host of others say that the Carter story is only the tip of the iceberg.
Simcox says: "It is simply unbelievable that our own government agency is sending intelligence to another country – a nation where corruption runs rampant and the information could be getting into the hands of criminal cartels. They are basically endangering the lives of American people. It is the equivalent of giving the enemy your battle plan in the midst of a war."
Ramirez says that for safety reasons he does "not disclose vital information and yet there it is! Right on the Mexican government's Web site and our government gave it to them!"
A few of us in the media are enraged by this revelation. Lou Dobbs calls it more evidence of the absurdity of the policies the Bush administration and Congress are following on border security and illegal immigration. Michael Savage is equally shocked by Sara Carter's revelations. Doug McIntyre of KABC refers to it as "insanity!"
All of these individuals in the media and many more are deeply concerned, along with this reporter, that the Mexican government appears to be unduly influencing our enforcement policies. That is not a legitimate role for any foreign nation.
Last year, Border Patrol agents received an internal memo notifying all agents not to give credit to Minutemen or others who report sightings of illegal aliens. Said one agent, "We were told to list it as a citizen call and leave it at that. And many times we were told not to respond to Minutemen calls."
Connie Hair of the Media Minutemen Headquarters reports that Scott James, a former Tucson Border Patrol agent, resigned after eight years of service, citing a lack of support by the Department of Homeland Security. He said, "U.S. Border Patrol officials provided office space inside their headquarters to Mexican consulate officials, allowed the consulate to dictate the agent's activities and gave the consulate information as to ongoing investigations."
Throughout Mexican government reports, the Minutemen are referred to as "vigilantes," the same word used by our president to describe them. Meanwhile, Mexican consulates in the U.S. contact Border Patrol officials, seeking U.S. cooperation reporting instances of civilians monitoring the border. It's all there before your very eyes, in the documents of the Mexican Secretary of Foreign Relations Web site. The word is out:
Notify the Mexican government as to the location and activities of Minutemen and the other civilian border patrol groups when they participate in the apprehension of the illegals.
Reports obtained from the Mexican government include an August 2005 document titled "Third Report on the Activities of Vigilantes," posted on Mexico's Secretary of Foreign Relations Web site, suggesting U.S. officials were giving out more details than required by the Vienna Convention. Part of the information included reports on activities in the interior of the U.S. in Illinois, Nevada, Utah, Massachusetts and Tennessee.
Meanwhile, with all this evidence, the new statement by the Border Patrol officially denies any such cooperative activity with the Mexican government, giving no explanation as to why the U.S. Border Patrol initially confirmed its actions in the earlier report as a "COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT" with Mexico. Mexico's official perception of our civilian groups is that they are VIGILANTES.
Chris Simcox tells this reporter: "It now appears the U.S. government has taken steps to ensure that the open border status quo is maintained. Even if we take the latest statement from the Border Patrol denying involvement as truth, at best the report on the Mexican Consulate Web site exposes widespread espionage and systematic spying against free, law-abiding American citizens on the part of the Mexican government – with or without U.S. government assistance."
The White House obviously has another debacle on its hands – not from the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times or another major newspaper. It is a story by a fine young journalist writing in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin – a newspaper previously unknown to most American readers. I believe Sara Carter deserves a Pulitzer Prize for her efforts.

Julie Farby - All Headline News Staff Writer
London, England (AHN)—A British inventor unveils the world's most fuel-efficient vehicle, a three-wheel “TeamGreen” car capable of doing 8,000 miles to the gallon.
The 45-year-old inventor, Andy Green, from the University of Bath, built his budget eco-motor for just £2,000, and will be the sole British contender for the title of the world's most fuel-economic car in a global competition being held later this month.
It has taken Mr. Green more than two years to design and build the car, which will be the fourth eco-vehicle he has built. He holds the British record for fuel-efficiency, with 6,603 miles to the gallon in a previous car.
According to the report, the new vehicle is powered by a single cylinder four-stroke engine with a capacity of just 35cc and runs with a special management system incorporating fuel injection.
A spokesman for Bath University says, "Andy Green is keeping the spirit of the lone British inventor who takes on the world very much alive."

Hispanic American Coalition Tells Frist No to Amnesty
(CNSNews.com) - A coalition of Hispanic Americans is teaming up with U.S. House leaders in sending a letter to Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-Tenn.) to express their opposition to legislation that would grant amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants. The coalition, called You Don't Speak for Me!, was formed after the recent demonstrations by illegal aliens and their supporters who want the government to grant them amnesty. "When it comes to immigration policy, the United States Senate apparently doesn't speak for anyone, except the people who have broken our laws and cheap labor business interests," retired Col. Al Rodriguez said in a press release. "National polls - especially those done after the May 1 illegal alien protests and boycott - show that an overwhelming majority of Americans oppose the kind of amnesty being promoted by the Senate and the White House. That opposition includes millions of Americans who are of Hispanic heritage," said Rodriguez, whose coalition plans to hold a press conference on Tuesday at 2:30pm in the Cannon House Office Building.
Bush to Address Nation on Immigration Reform
(CNSNews.com) - President Bush is requesting air time from the major television networks to address the nation on immigration reform Monday night, press reports said. President Bush has called for stronger borders - but he also favors some kind of temporary "guest worker" program, something many conservatives see as tantamount to amnesty for those who come here illegally.
The Whitehouse Is Considering Deploying Troops to the Border, Why Now?Tony Dolz
May 12, 2006
 The Whitehouse, on a radical reversal of it previous position, has signaled the Pentagon to explore border control patrols, according to a report from Lolita Baldor of the Associated Press. Curiously, the announcement follows the "Minuteman Goes To Washington " tour of the country by Minuteman Tony Dolz. Tony carried a petition calling for the immediate deployment of troops at the border. Only a few months earlier, Department of Defense Secretary Rumsfeld had disavowed any responsibility for the security crisis at the border... |
LOL, they can use those in Europe but it would be like riding a mo-ped across Texas!
Supporters of this so-called "Great American Boycott" are calling it a protest.
I call it EXTORTION!
Jim Gilchrist, founder of the Minuteman said: "It's intimidation when a million
people march down main streets in our major cities under the Mexican flag."
Thank you!
Maybe it's been posted but take a look at what's happening in Texas now.
