American
Border Patrol Draws Fire
SIERRA VISTA -- The appearance of
American Border Patrol (ABP), a non-profit corporation formed
to tell the truth about the border situation, has gotten the
attention of a well-know smear artist, Morris Dees of the Southern
Poverty Law Center (SPLC). According to Glenn Spencer, president
of ABP, "The SPLC has descended on Cochise county like locusts,
eating the truth wherever they can find it." Spencer says
SPLC has joined forces with Isabel
Garcia of Derechos Humanos to defeat any attempt to stop
Mexicans from invading the United States.
Dees
fights those who defend America
American Patrol comment: Garcia is part of a network
of lawyers and judges who work to defeat America's immigration
laws to the benefit of Mexico. She
is on the payroll of Pima County, Arizona. He former husband,
a lawyer and still close associate, is on retainer by the Mexican
government. She works in concert with Morris Dees of the Southern
Poverty Law Center to smear anyone who speaks out against the
Mexican invasion. (See

One
of Dees' lies: "Spencer recently
deleted from his Web site the image of a cartoon figure urinating
on a Latino Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient." No
such cartoon was ever posted on our website. G. Spencer

Cultural Marxists have successfully used multiculturalism and

the various internal measures being implemented to counter terrorism
can undermine even patriotic elements loyalty to the American

upset over AB60 veto
A gubernatorial veto of a bill that would
have made it legal for illegal aliens (yes, you read it here--not
''the undocumented'') to get California Driver's licenses was
a quite a shocker. It shocked the Latino legislators, immigration
reformers and the Chron. I guess that makes it a triple play.
The bill would have allowed illegal aliens a legal right to a
driver's license. Maybe the governor is thinking that with a
close re-election race looming, he may have to actually start
pandering to a constituency he has never heretofore considered... |

that mandate mediation of stalled farm labor talks, GOP challenger
Bill Simon accused him of jeopardizing farmers' income and said
he would not have approved the legislation. -- When Davis vetoed
legislation to limit the disposal of low-level radioactive waste,
Simon said he would have signed it. -- And when Davis
vetoed bills to give driver's licenses to some illegal immigrants,

Secure
borders are citizens' right
Our current border control is an international
joke, but the joke is on us! -- The debate on immigration policy
must begin with the recognition that we are, in fact, in a monumental
crisis. We have passed from an era of a healthy stream of immigrants
to an uncontrolled flood of illegal immigrants, and there are
enormous ramifications of this reality. -- Tragically, our policies
have not recognized this paradigm shift. Moreover, this crisis
is approaching the character of a constitutional crisis because
of our failure to deal with serious issues while they are manageable. |

Bilingual
Ed Ban on Ballot
The first skirmishes were fought in California

to Colorado and Massachusetts, where voters will decide Nov.

In each state, a contentious ballot item asks voters to do what
Californians did in 1998 and Arizonans in 2000 - replace bilingual

lax at Mexico's border with Guatemala
As the United States scrambles to step
up security measures against terrorist crossings at Mexico's
northern border, the country's vast southern border remains relatively
open to weapons and illegal immigrants from around the world.
-- The 435-mile border between Mexico and Guatemala has been
largely ignored, government officials and immigration experts
said last week at a daylong conference on immigration and security
at the prestigious Colegio de Mexico. -- Federal immigration
officials insist they have neither the money nor the personnel

Chaos
along the border
If control over a nation's own borders
is the beginning of having an immigration policy, then the United
States has a very long way to go before it reaches even that
stage. Throughout the recent five-part series, "Border War:
On the front line against illegal immigration," investigative
reporter Jerry Seper of The Washington Times documents the extremely
costly chaos along America's 1,940-mile border with Mexico. |

Agent
decline stymies border control
The number of U.S. Border Patrol agents
in Southern Arizona declined during the fiscal year that ended
last week, reflecting a nationwide problem with retaining agents.
-- In the Tucson Sector, the number of agents went from 1,713
on Oct. 1, 2001 to 1,574 last week, the first such decline since
1994. -- Nationwide, 2,004 agents were hired, but 1,756 departed,
a net gain of only 248 agents. -- That left the agency with 10,055
agents - 496 short of its goal of 10,551. -- The problem of early
departures from the Border Patrol "has been part of their
culture for a long time," said Kevin M. Gilmartin... [Also
