MINUTEMAN PROJECT: We want to make it clear because we've had a lot of questions about this.....we have not had one single complaint from a rank-and-file agent in this Sector about the Minutemen. Every report we've received indicates these people are very supportive of the rank-and-file agents, they're courteous, many of them are retired firefighters, cops, and other professionals, and they're not causing us any problems whatsoever. Reports of them causing "ground sensors" to go off are exaggerated because most of those are being set off by the ACLU sneaking around trying to find the Minutemen doing something wrong. The Minutemen have succeeded in shifting the bulk of the illegal alien traffic out of the Naco corridor.
If only President Bush were so supportive of the rank-and-file agents. While President Bush hangs out thousands of miles away in the White House, these people are willing to give up their time and energy to actually do something. While President Bush entices millions of illegal aliens to keep coming with his amnesty proposals and his demoralizing statements that he doesn't want Border Patrol agents chasing "good-hearted people just coming here to take jobs Americans won't do" the Minutemen are trying to get our laws enforced.
The Minutemen have made it very clear that they fully support rank-and-file Border Patrol agents. If only we had such support from the politicians we have to work for (aren't we really supposed to be working for the citizens of this country anyway?)!
I guess the Border Patrol must be a bunch of "vigilantes" as well, according to Bush.
Can you please ping your list to this threat? Thanks.

Aw, who am I kidding?
LOL
Presidente Fox, HELP!: Will you please order your subordinate, George Bush, to get our borders under control? Bush won't listen to the American people, he defies the will of 70 to 80% of us, but you have some obvious power over him. Can you help us out here pal? Maybe order him to hire a few more Border Patrol agents and some equipment so they can patrol the borders? Get him to buy us a few patrol vehicles so we don't have to drive worn out junk with over 150,000 or 200,000 miles on the odometer? Maybe even get him to quit enticing millions more of your countrymen to come over here illegally by throwing endless amnesty proposals out there and telling us we shouldn't be chasing them in the first place because they're just good-hearted people coming here to take jobs we won't do? Maybe get a two-way radio system that actually works? We have a somewhat selfish motive for asking Presidente Fox. You see, at the rate Mr. Bush is cutting our budget, cutting our new hires, cutting our employment rights, depriving us of equipment, demoralizing our workforce with dumb statements, and cutting our pay, we believe that soon these "good hearted illegal aliens" he so desperately wants here may in fact really be doing a job soon that no American will want to do. The job of a Border Patrol agent! We believe he may really have a pent-up and sincere desire to have the "fox" guarding the henhouse. We need some help here buddy. Please!!! Can you help save our jobs?

Yes, the White House got some angry words on this obvious pandering to Vincete Fox...and the BP should be supporting the "bad vigilates" because they are doing the government's dirty work for them...a really tragic, sick situation from my viewpoint. Your Washington elites in action for the American people...
GW is walking a thin line.
Another major terrorist attack that may have been perpetrated by some who came across the border (North or South) illegally, and GW and his legacy are history.
These ACLU folks should leave the police work to professional law enforcement.
There are some great pictures at Michelle Malkin's Immigration Blog of the ACLU smoking a couple joints. The last thing the Border Patrol needs is a bunch of doped-up legal advisers making their job more dangerous.
Now why does THAT not surprise me one bit?
This whole situation makes me so %*%$$# MAD!
Listen up Bush...WE are the People.
WE hired you, and WE can damn sure FIRE you if you don't get off your (censored) backside and UPHOLD YOUR OATH YOU SWORE BEFORE GOD!
(rant off)
BTW - *THANK YOU*
Minutemen
and U.S. Border Patrol Local 2544!
And this came out the other day. Some people are "getting it".

Sorry that is...
Necessary Conditions for I*mmigration Changes
I'm just wondering what our very own CAL members here on FR will think. Of course, they probably don't like the border patrol to begin with...
Instead, we squander billions on nonsense, while ignoring the most critical national security threats.
"Billions for Homeland Security, but not one penny for an effective border fence."
Above: Your billions of Homeland Security tax dollars at "work" on nonsense.
So very true.
This 'should' get media attention, but all we'll probably hear about is the story of Mexican and US citizens trying to 'heal' the border by singing and chanting to it.
Yoohoo, Katie!
"ACLU sneaking around "
on private property in some cases..?
That's got to be a pretty stupid move...
