If you want to know about another California Patriot ask the US Border Patrol at El Centro about what happened tonight at about 8:30.

Congressman Bob Filner blew through the checkpoint and breached the compound doors pushing through officers and risking the lives and security of over 450 people within the facility. All this I hope is on tape and will be hopefully be readily available to the press. All this because his buddy from the press had to follow the established protocols and get clearance from Washington DC before being allowed entrance to interview some detainees.

How upsetting to have officers tasked with upholding the law and maintaining security in condition threat "Orange" being physically threatened and verbally harrassed by a Congressman elected and sworn to protecting our rights and freedoms. Not only that but congress is the body that establishes the proceedures by which these facilities are managed.

I hope to see the press or better yet, if it is at all possible get this into the hands of Rush Limbaugh to cover on his show Monday. The audio from the tapes alone ought to be priceless after it has been sanitized for public consumption.

Any other thoughts on how this jerk can be seen in full light and not returned to office would be great to hear. Anyone from the press who would like a good juicy story on Bob Filner should sink their teeth into tonights events in El Centro. No wonder we have imigration control issues with the likes of him.

If I was an agent present during that particular spectacle, I would have cracked him over the head with the butt of my gun.

Example #3,456,789 why we need to clean "House" and Senate and start over.

"If you want to know about another California Patriot ask the US Border Patrol at El Centro about what happened tonight at about 8:30."

That's really not the way to start a comment. Not everyone knows where El Centro is (I do) or who Filner is (I don't). No one has the "back story." In brief, no one knows what you're talking about.

Can you explain what went on, perhaps giving a link to news sites or other sources of information?
