Hopeful Hunter to Campaign

U.S. Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif., author of the bill to build a border fence, will bring his presidential campaign to Pahrump, Nevada Wednesday (today).

Hunter is scheduled to appear from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Skate Zone, 1261 E. Calvada Blvd.

While some Democratic candidates are already dropping out of the presidential race, Hunter is continuing the campaign despite finishing with less than 1 percent of the vote in Iowa and New Hampshire.

Hunter lives in a border community in east San Diego County. His efforts resulted in the installation of 59 miles of fencing and border infrastructure in San Diego County.

Hunter then wrote the Secure Fence Act, signed into law by President Bush Oct. 26, 2006, extending the San Diego border fence 854 miles across California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas.

Absolutely.

Also, some boilerplate for lurkers and posters:

Now Americans will wake up and realize that they don't have to "settle." Since 1981, Congressman Duncan Hunter has served on the House Armed Services Committee, as Chairman from 2002-06, and currently as the Ranking Minority Member. Hunter has championed a strong military, border security, and protecting America's workers and small businesses against unfair trade competition by opposing schemes like NAFTA and the North American Union. He understands that protecting jobs in U.S. defense, aircraft, ship repair, machine tools, textile, steel and titanium industries are essential for maintaining the surge capacity of the U.S. industrial base. Since 9-11-01, Hunter has led the fight to secure our borders against transnational terrorists and lawless elements; and to release two unjustly convicted border guards, Ramos and Campion. Hunter earned the Combat Infantryman's Badge and Bronze Star in Vietnam and demands that the U.S. Government keep its promises to Veterans. His efforts to provide tax relief for working families, protect Social Security, and promote strong family values earned him 100% ratings from Eagle Forum, the American Conservative Union, the Concerned Women of America, the Christian Coalition, and the Campaign for Working Families; a 92% from the American Conservative Union; and an A+ from the NRA. Vote for Duncan Hunter, a true Reagan Republican in the Presidential primary or caucus in YOUR state. We don't have to settle for a self-reinvented or media-fabricated one.

Any time RINOs--especially flip flopping ones trying to pull some tricks--have the proverbial snot beat out of them, electorally, you will find ol' AmericanInTokyo cheering and applauding.

Living on the border, none of the Presidential candidates understand stopping illegal immigration better than Duncan Hunter!

Watch for one of the RINOs to show up any day, in camoflage, with a walkie talkie, with some turncoat Minutemen on the border, posing for pics and giving sound bites. Despicable. They wont be seen anywhere NEAR there if they secure the GOP nomination, nor as President.

What Hunter has tried to tell the folks and one of dozens of reasons we need the fence.

Over 1,000 Mexican Federal troops again back to Tijuana.
This is 20 miles south of San Diego.
This stuff could be posted on a daily basis.

The drug cartels on that side and this side along with the drug gangs and many funded by terrorists are running the show.

Tijuana & The Border

Gunfire erupts between lawmen, house occupants

TIJUANA, 2:04 p.m. Jan. 17 (SAN DIEGO UNION-TRIBUNE)
A gun battle began Thursday morning in this city’s La Mesa district pitting state and federal police agents and Army soldiers against several suspects who barricaded themselves in a house there.

According to the Border News Agency, at least one municipal police officer was wounded. ....

Jan. 16 (SAN DIEGO UNION-TRIBUNE)

Shootings target police, families: TIJUANA – A high-ranking police commander, his wife and his 11-year-old daughter were among six people killed in a burst of overnight violence in Tijuana that has left residents shaken and law enforcement officials vowing to fight harder than ever against organized crime.

The killings occurred in three parts of the city over six hours late Monday and early yesterday. By the time the violence was over, heavily armed men also had killed two other Tijuana police officers and a civilian, and wounded three adults, a 4-year-old girl and a 3-year-old boy

RINO Romney has already done this...

Duncan said he would build the fence in 6 months, and has describe how it can be done...

Huckabee is now announcing that he will build it in 18 months but he has not said how...

Nevada needs to save the party from its current stupidity. Duncan Hunter is the only candidate you can rely on and a true leader and our country is in desperate need of leadership that only Duncan Hunter can provide.
