It's the border, stupid By Salena Zito TRIBUNE-REVIEW Sunday, April 23, 2006
LAREDO, Texas
There is no homeland security without border security.
Americans sitting in the heartland may not be sweating over border issues but Webb County, Texas, Sheriff Rick Flores thinks they should be.
"Any sheriff, whether they are in Dallas, Iowa or even Nebraska, would much prefer that we squash a threat at the border than force them to deal with it after it gets through us," the sheriff told me in his office here.
"Smugglers have a ready-made infrastructure in place ... and they are just waiting to substitute terrorists and their cargoes for drugs if the price is right."

Try convincing POTUS of this. His mind is already made up. After all, he has Hispanic relatives to protect.
"Muslim America is established on rural wilderness territory with an international border (left) and on urban territory with corporate facilities, residence, and offices (right)".
Damn, right out of the gate and the writer nails it. Mirabile dictu!
Maybe cause we have a loaded Mossberg waiting for him when he does come in!!!!!
Here wolfy wolfy, we're waaaaiting!!!
Give GWB and the American public just a slight bit of credibility and self reliance!
The slimes had 911 but we will always have 93!!!!!
thanks!
Bryanna over at the unmentionable web-site mentions that four Arab men waltzed thru one of the California MM sites the other day.
Interestingly enough, even Hillary kind of "gets it" where Mexico's nearly
omnipotent oligarchs are concerned:
http://www.nydailynews.com/news/ideas_opinions/story/411104p-347791c.html
"[Mrs. Clinton] said she favors a "carrot-and-stick" approach with Mexico to
provide that government and its "oligarchs" the incentives to give Mexicans
more and better jobs in their own country."
Frankly, the more pressure we keep on Mexico, immigration-wise, the more
reformers inside of Mexico can be emboldened and empowered to scale back
monopolists' abuses down there which keep our own country flooded with
economic refugees. Here's an interesting thread on new legal reform progress
that finally
emerged in Mexico I think as a result of immigration reform's failure:

We can make a difference for our sake, and their's as well, by cracking down
and demanding more activism by our own United States Trade Representative
against protectionist Mexican oligarchs in, for example, the monopolistic
petroleum, telecommunications, electricity and television media sectors.
Isn't prodding our neighbor to finally clean up its own backyard before
lambasting us for ours the neighborly thing to do?
Now that's a border!
Ping...
Peter Brimelow's Vdare website is one of the best. What a shame it's banned here. It's as anti Mexican as Mexico is anti American.
The Spanish elites who rule Mexico only have contempt for us. They laugh themselves to sleep each night at the stupid gringos accepting all the lower class Mestizos and Indians being pushed out. No other nation in the world tolerates such an invasion via immigration

Notice the authors name... and the sheriffs.

First it is ridiculed.
Then it is violently opposed.
Finally, it is accepted as self-evident."

Hmmm...from that site....Free Republic? Not Quite ...
So, you're in favor of the pro-open borders, illegal immigration advocates in the White House and Congress using our family members as bait for terrorists?
Why don't you think about what you're really saying in that post of yours and imagine your own children and grandchildren being used as bait in GWB's brilliant trap.
LOL!
Yes, and thank you for noticing. Isn't that interesting?
Advertising being on an international border?
I'm not sure their names are actually relevant, other than the fact that both probably come from immigrant stock.
Fact is, most of us do.
Immigration isn't necessarily bad, but illegal immigration most definitely is.
I was impressed because these seem to be Hispanic names... speaking out against illegal immigrants. I know where I live there is a sort of "clanning" going on. Successful Hispanics apparently taking "in" and helping hispanics who don't speak a word of (or extremely limited) English. Just very suspicious behavior. I have made it my business to go into some of these business', etc. (In fact, the only La Raza literature I have held in my hand came from such a business.) The "clan" like stuff is what bothers me. I also have Hispanic friends who came to this country legally. They are very disturbed with the illegal swarming. I was just very impressed & heartened with the names mentioned.
