Well - he will certainly be talking about it in the passionate, red-blooded, manner American Men once employed when verbalizing their response to such obscenities on the part of their public servants.
Back in the Good Old Days, that is, when there were American Men.
And were American public servants.
BUMPping
I like what a General suggested in conference...allow wiretappings, but audit the process to make sure there's no obvious misuse. If there is, hold people responsible. Sounds fairly reasonable to me.
This sounds rather sticky.

Make sure you are not talking about "treason" or "impeachment" guys.
Yes.
Well, in the DC Metro area it might mean that Casa Maryland, a radical pro-illegal group, which receives funds from the state gov.was supplied intel and encouragement from the Mexican gov. when they threatened to follow Minutemen, their families and follow their children to school
Personally I can't think of any other reason the Mexican govt would want this kind of info.
"Well, in the DC Metro area it might mean that Casa Maryland, a radical pro-illegal group, which receives funds from the state gov.was supplied intel and encouragement from the Mexican gov. when they threatened to follow Minutemen, their families and follow their children to school"
Is this a true incident? Any links, I would love to read abou t it?
or
Did Casa de Maryland state in public that they were going to follow American citizens and their families?
Is the Washington Times a good enough start?

Counties defend CASA pickets
By Keyonna Summers
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
Published April 17, 2006
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Officials with Montgomery and Prince George's counties say the taxpayer-funded CASA of Maryland advocacy group has a constitutional right to picket outside the homes and businesses of members of the Minutemen, a group that photographs employers hiring day laborers and illegal aliens.
"What's good for the Minutemen is good for the laborers," said Prince George's County Councilman Will Campos, a Democrat. "Let's face it -- don't get mad because somebody's doing the same thing you're doing."
CASA officials say that they are just reacting to "provocation" by the Minutemen and that the picketing protests would be like those staged in front of the homes of employers who don't pay laborers.
"It's proven to be an effective way of bringing publicity and ensuring that people pay their wages," said Peter Shiras, who is on CASA's board of directors. "This was not something that was instigated by us [and] I don't think CASA is trying to pick a fight here."
CASA is also training legal observers who would document but not protest the activities of the Minutemen while they monitor the day laborers in Maryland.
Mr. Shiras said there's a "big difference" between the Minutemen, who he says are trying to intimidate CASA employees, and CASA, which is trying to "bring publicity" to the Minutemen's actions.
Spokesmen for Montgomery and Prince George's counties said the actions of CASA employees and volunteers are independent of the county's views. They also say that CASA is an independent contractor and that county funds do not support its monitoring activities.
"They have a contract to perform a certain set of services and that's what they're paid for," said David Weaver, a Montgomery County spokesman. CASA is "not an official county agency. They don't speak for the county government anymore than [other groups] who also receive money from the county."
Montgomery County has spent nearly $1.6 million in fiscal 2006 in contracts with CASA for day-laborer and community centers in Wheaton and Silver Spring, and health and language services for thousands of residents.
Takoma Park pays about $40,000 annually for a temporary day-laborer center. Prince George's County last year pledged $91,000 to the opening of a center in Langley Park.
Baltimore has approved a $75,000 contract to open a permanent center this spring to replace a temporary one monitored by CASA, which formed about 20 years ago to provide assistance to Central American refugees but now offers advocacy, legal, language and health services.
Mr. Weaver declined to comment on the Maryland Minutemen or its president, Stephen Schreiman, who has called for the Justice Department to investigate CASA and has urged financial contributors to stop supporting the organization. The Minutemen have mainly targeted an informal gathering site at a church in Gaithersburg.
Montgomery County law prohibits picketing outside private homes unless a public meeting is being held inside. However, protesters are allowed to picket outside businesses.
Gaithersburg officials recently drafted similar legislation after realizing the county code did not apply to the city. An incident unrelated to the CASA issue prompted the move, officials said.
Barb Matthews, city manager of Takoma Park said, the municipality's role is to prevent violence and other problems "but it's really not the role of the city to say who does what, or whose opinion is wrong or whose is right."

Wow, that's pretty sick...
You mean I should expect illegal immigrants in front of my house('protesting') one of these days?
There are tons of blogs that Michele has listed on her blog that post the outrage concerning the fact that our own Govt would be reporting back to a foreign nation against it's citizens.
The illegal aliens have been a threat to this country and now we know in more ways than one. Why are we being sold out for a group of mexican national socialists?

Get a grip.
The reality is that half (or sometimes a quarter) of a loaf is better than nothing. Bush has been good on the WOT, tax breaks for the rich (rich being anyone that makes over 15K a year), choosing pro-life constitutionlist judges (yeah he screwed up with Harriet Myers but he corrected it). Next election we need to get a real conservative into the whitehouse. I hope one runs.
I want my votes back. This is dispicable. They won't get my votes ever again. Why don't we have a competent third party?!
