Minuteman Corps. Will stand their Ground

The United States Senate has decided to act as though the people that put them in office have ceased to exist. They have become some kind of royalty, strutting their stuff before cameras and making decisions about immigration and other things that do not represent the majority of the American people.

And it's not just the nutjob Democrats, there are several Republicans mixed in there as well, like Senator McCain. They are called RINO's - Republicans in name only. They will say and do anything to get elected, just like the Democrats.

Would you believe anything that McCain says in the future after you saw him and Ted Kennedy shaking hands and congratulating each other on a job well done after getting the new immigration bill passed in the senate yesterday?

If there ever was a time for a third party, it is now. I consider myself a Republican, but I also consider myself a conservative. What we need now is for the conservatives to form a new party and let the centralist Republicans and centralist Democrats join forces to try and govern form the center - it won't work.

How can you be an effective legislator when your feet don't touch the ground when you make a career out of sitting on the fence.

You have to stand for something. You have to believe in a course of action and then act on it. It isn't possible to wait for a consensus of opinion from all parties involved and then make a decision. This is what McCain and Clinton are trying to do now. They are not believable. You know that when they get elected, it will be business as usual. It's called and agenda of 'smoke and mirrors'.



Breaking from NewsMax.com
Chris Simcox, president of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, issued the following statement on the passage today of an illegal alien amnesty bill by the U.S. Senate:

"The vote to give amnesty to millions of illegal aliens by the United States Senate today, should it pass into law, would ensure that the status quo is maintained: the borders would remain wide open and the attractive nuisance of endless welfare and social programs at the expense of the American taxpayer would remain. Those climbing over the backs of those waiting patiently to abide by our laws; and instead breaking the law, illegally entering this country, and committing document fraud; those not paying taxes; and those hiring illegally would be granted full amnesty. American citizens would, of course, still be subject to prosecution for document fraud and tax evasion.

This sends the message that if you play by the rules, you suffer; if you enter the United States illegally, you are not subject to the rule of law.

"The American people do not trust the government to grant amnesty now and secure the borders later. We already went down that road in 1986, and the borders remain wide open still today.

"Their constituents are watching, and these Senators will pay the price come election time. We are now focusing our attention on the House of Representatives where we do not expect amnesty to pass. The House is more respectful of their voters, as they stand for re-election every two years. The arrogance and cavalier disregard of the will of the American people by this Senate will not be forgotten-there will be an accounting. The American people are still sovereign in this country, not a gaggle of politicians pandering to their special interest donors.

"The existing border crisis is a dereliction of duty by those entrusted with this nation's security, sovereignty and prosperity. The U.S. Senate just left America vulnerable to a tsunami of migrants at the border, to terrorist infiltration and to an unprecedented crime wave by drug smugglers, thieves, rapists, human traffickers and murderers who cross our frontier at will-and whose bravado and aggression will now increase with the Senate's message of our apparent national weakness.

"But the Minutemen will remain on patrol, at our posts-and continue to build border fencing and barriers on private land with private donations until the U.S. government performs its most basic constitutional duty to these United States, and safeguards the people and protects the territorial integrity of America."
