The Movement You Need…

This site linked below is a production of The Minutemen Project.

I disagree with those who suggest that there is something wrong, sinister or racist about citizens voluntarily assisting with enforcement of our laws. Particularly, there are those who demand we leave immigration law enforcement up to the Federal Government. I question both their motives and their intellectual capacity. Some people join neighborhood watches, but I’ve yet to hear a single soul call a neighborhood watch participant names or shout epithets at them. The most common way for a neighborhood watch volunteer to have a “success” is for them to notice someone who does not belong. That’s profiling. And it is incredibly logical.

The same should be said of the vast majority of Minutemen. Since in the theoretical foundations of this nation, the power to lead or govern is granted by the people, “the people” are the government. As long as this group is law abiding - and it is - then their positions and actions are secure, correct and patriotic.

A couple of months ago, I started reading little tidbits about some shadowy project to combine the nations of Mexico, Canada and the United States via back-door means. My first thought was of black helicopters, but now I’m not so sure. Based on the information posted by our own government, it appears that there is something going on behind our backs.

This site is huge. I’ll be digesting what is contained here for weeks.

Stop the Security and Prosperity Partnership - StopSPP.com

On Sept. 7, the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP), a government office established in March to increase cooperation between the United States, Canada and Mexico, released a progress report. Among its achievements was creation of an American Competitiveness Council to enhance North America’s posture in the struggle for hotly contested global markets.Unfortunately, major events are already unfolding that will undermine this belated attempt to respond to ambitious rivals who have been piling up ever-higher trade surpluses at the expense of American-based enterprises.

I’ve been involved in so many political campaigns over the last two decades that I’ve lost count. The only hard-fast rule I have that works every time is this:

It never hurts to remind those who would vote for your opponent to vote…on Wednesday.

To translate, the most proven political trick in the book is to deceive your opponent’s supporters into believing that the cause is lost, or that their turning out would be for naught. Of late, the Rube Goldberg machine being concocted by the Mainstream Media and the Sorosian left has been cranking out scenarios specifically targeted at depressing turnout of both conservative Republicans and conservative independent voters. Usually this doesn’t work when these groups are targeted. In my experience, GOP voters and those registered as “no party affiliation” are less likely to go to the polls uninformed.

On the other hand, there are places in which registered Democrats will vote based solely on the content of the palm card they’re given by their precinct leaders. I know of no area of this nation in which Republicans think so little of their fellows that they’d take them for such mindless lemmings.

No, I’m not saying “all Democrats are stupid.” I’m saying “there is a greater propensity for registered Democrats to go to the polls in a clueless state of mind.” And I’d bet you dollars to donuts if we ran an experiment by mailing “remember to vote Wednesday” cards to every registered voter in America, there would a lot of Democrats that would show up at the polls the day after the election and relatively few others.

A brain region that curbs our natural self interest has been identified. The studies could explain how we control fairness in our society, researchers say.

Every single member of Congress should be tested…and I can think of a few former co-workers and bosses who likely had damaged the portion of the brain these scientists discovered.

Count me as being very disappointed in Mark Foley. And count me as feeling extrememly squeamish about how a decision I made 16 years ago might just be responsible for making Nancy Pelosi the next Speaker of the House. I can’t get past the thought that a decision I made in the parking lot of Mark Foley’s real estate office in 1990 might have been the catalyst that sent him on a trajectory from political nobody to the Florida House, the Florida Senate and the United States House of Representatives with astounding speed.

Only his fall from grace was faster.

If I had to choose between having a pederast in the House and Nancy Pelosi as Speaker, I can’t honestly say which choice gives me the creeps more. I’m afraid that the details of my involvement long ago in what has become a crisis today is going to haunt me for a very long time. The mere thought of my having had a hand in setting in motion a series of events that, come next January, may result in the words “Speaker Pelosi” being spoken and printed for at least two years is ipecac for my brain.
