HYPOCRITICAL MEXICO IS BUILDING
A WALL ON THEIR SOUTHERN BORDER
By Michael Cutler, Immigration and Naturalization Service, retired
    The government of Mexico is now constructing its own wall to protect
its southern border that separates Mexico from Guatemala, according to
the news article that appeared on the Examiner.com website on September
19th.
    Meanwhile when Mexican President Felipe Calderon addressed our
Congress several months ago, he had the chutzpah to criticize the state
of Arizona for daring to deal with the immigration crisis confronting our
nation -- a crisis the federal government is largely responsible for
ignoring and, actually exacerbating!
    What was even more astounding was the standing ovation Calderon
received from members of the United States Congress!
    Do you suppose that Alvaro Colom Caballeros, the president of
Guatemala will be heading to Mexico anytime soon to address the
government of Mexico to decry the construction of Mexico's border fence?
If he did make that journey, do you suppose any of Mexico's leaders would
give him a standing ovation if he called for an open border or legal
status for Guatemalans living illegally in Mexico?
    Of course the members of the United States Congress who applauded Mr.
Calderon's condemnation of the state of Arizona for seeking to enforce
immigration laws are not concerned about the threats to national security
or the threats to community safety that our porous borders represent.
    Arizona is trying to deal with the extreme violence being carried out
each day in cities across that beleaguered state (and indeed across our
entire nation) by criminal aliens who entered our counry by running the
border that is supposed to separate our nation from Mexico.
    Yesterday our nation and our citizens dodged yet another attempt by
the open borders advocates in the United States Senate to foist a massive
amnesty on our nation under the deceptively named "DREAM Act."
    If the politicians in Washington don't understand why Americans hate
the politicians, they need to step back and ask themselves how many more
ways can those elected to represent average Americans betray the trust
bestowed upon them by their constituents and fail to live up to their
oaths of office and still hope to be re-elected?
    A nation's security begins at its borders.  Securing the borders of a
nation is not an act of bigotry but an act of commonsense --  especially
in this perilous era!  As I have often noted, a country without secure
borders can no more stand than can a house without walls!
    November 2nd (election) cannot come fast enough!
    We the People, throughout this nation must seek opportunities to make
it clear to our political "representatives" that we understand their game
plan and won't tolerate it!.
    We the People can add to the consternation of these politicians who
are failing to live up to their oaths of office by contacting them and
making it abundantly clear that election day is coming and they should
think of election day as their personal "Day of Reckoning!"
    Our government must live up to its obligation of protecting its own
citizens and, indeed, all who are present in our country from the
criminals and terrorists who would threaten our lives and the survival of
our nation and our way of life.  In the end, the government is actually
those who are elected to act as our "leaders."  Those who fail to truly
lead and look out for those they are supposed to represent, need to be
sent packing this coming Election Day!
    The first step in problem-solving is to first identify the problems
and vulnerabilities and then devise strategies to overcome them.
    Any politician who refuses to work to secure our borders and create
an immigration system that has integrity is either corrupt or too dumb to
keep his (her) job.  Any politician, irrespective of party affiliation
who favors Comprehensive Immigration Reform and the outrageous betrayal
that this would represent, given the national security implications that
this program would have, should be shown the door at the next election!
    If you find yourself to be in agreement with this commentary, I ask
that you forward it to as many of your friends and family members as
possible and encourage them to do the same.
    Later this year, each and every member of the House of
Representatives is up for reelection.  Later this year more than one
third of the members of the United States Senate will have to face their
constituents.  They need to be reminded that they work for us, We the
People!
    The large scale apathy demonstrated by citizens of this nation has
emboldened elected representatives to all but ignore the needs of the
average American citizen in a quest for massive campaign funds and the
promises of votes to be ostensibly delivered by special interest groups.
There is much that we cannot do but there is one thing that We the People
absolutely must do -- we must stop sitting on the sidelines!
    If this situation concerns you or especially if it angers you, I ask
you to call your Senators and Congressional "Representative.  This is not
only your right -- it is your obligation!
    This is neither a Conservative issue, nor is it a Liberal issue --
simply stated, this is most certainly an AMERICAN issue!

NATIONS THAT WON'T TOLERATE ILLEGAL ALIENS
THINK THAT THE U.S.A. MUST TOLERATE THEM
WHY IS THE U.S.A. FLOODED WITH ILLEGAL ALIENS?
    Republicans want cheap labor and household help.
    Democrats want more poor illegal aliens grateful for government
handouts to illegally vote Democratic.  Perjured signatures swearing U.S.
citizenship on voter registrations is mostly ignored.  That is a reason
why ballots are printed using multiple languages.
    Law enforcement wants to share drug smuggler profits.
    Poor illegal aliens come for jobs, free medical care, welfare aid,
and money to send to families back home.
    President Obama has reported "human rights violations" by the state
of Arizona.to the U.N., even though nations with horrific human rights
violations such as Cuba, North Korea, Communist China, Venezuela, Iran,
Saudi Arabia, and many others are allowed to sit on human rights panels
at the U.N.
    The Tea Party is leading the fight to build a fence and control
illegal aliens.
