So I just read Peter Brimelow’s blog entry from earlier this morning about U.S. officials ratting out the Minutemen to the Mexican government and it must be said:

These U.S. “officials” are the stupidest life forms on the planet (including fungus, Paris Hilton and grass) and my anger is only tempered by the fact that the initial shock has yet to wear off.

Funny enough, this is the second time today that I have seriously considered building a large, underground shelter in my backyard in preparation for the foreign invasion and takeover that is undoubtedly imminent. Yeah…because we’re stupid and practically begging for it!

As evidenced by…

This morning when I was skimming the news I came across a story about a Chinese man who had purchased a MIG-21 Fighter Jet on…wait for it…EBAY!

Uh-huh…our communist “friend” bought it on EBAY.

[Man buys fighter jet, wants refund 5/9/06 Reuters]

Apparently the jet was owned by a Chech national but housed in Idaho or one of those middle states which always seem quiet and innocent until they pop out a Ted Kaczynski. In any event, shipping proved problematic and the Chinese man is now seeking a refund.

There may be an issue of fair business practices or truth in advertising…something like that…but so what???

People can buy fighter jets on EBAY!! Sure, the MIG 21 is an old machine with relatively limited weapons capability but it’s still a war plane!!

Great…America will be invaded by communists using machines they acquired through an American company–I suppose it wouldn’t be the first time but come on!

As frustrated as I was to hear this news, the U.S. government selling out our Minutemen took things to a whole new level for me–and I’m not alone! VDARE.com readers have flooded our email accounts today expressing their outrage and contempt at this latest government offense.

So what’s going on?

When an illegal alien is apprehended, they have the right to seek counsel in the event that they were mistreated in some way–especially when they are apprehended by volunteer organizations such as the Minutemen.

The Mexican government claims the right to question any and all volunteer personnel involved in border apprehensions.

Apparently–and this part still confuses me a bit–the U.S. government decided that it was best to just provide the Mexican government with the exact location of all volunteer patrol groups along the border. Normally this information would be handed out on a need to know basis–after an actual complaint had been filed by a Mexican national.

The bottom line is this: Our government passing on this information impedes the efforts of the Minutemen and more to the point, it endangers their lives.

“Now we know why it seemed like Mexican officials knew where we were all the time,” said Chris Simcox, founder of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps. “It’s unbelievable that our own government agency is sending intelligence to another country. They are sending intelligence to a nation where corruption runs rampant, and that could be getting into the hands of criminal cartels.

[U.S. tipping Mexico to Minuteman patrols by Sara A. Carter, Daily Bulletin 5/8/06]

Unbelieveable. Despicable. Disgraceful.

Yeah…I have to get back to work on my underground shelter–it seems I will likely need it sooner that I thought.

A reader sends this devastating story by Sara Carter on dailybulletin.com: U.S. tipping Mexico to Minuteman patrols.

A U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokesman confirmed the notification process, describing it as a standard procedure meant to reassure the Mexican government that migrants’ rights are being observed.

What did you expect? Whose side do you think the Bush Administration is on?

Here’s a select list of Late Night TV jokes, courtesy Newsmax.com.

Letterman

• It was a beautiful day here in New York. It was unbelievable. It was so great I pretended I was an immigrant and took the day off.

Leno

• Well, happy Cinco de Mayo everybody. This is a holiday celebrated by over 80 million Mexicans. And those are just the ones here in L.A.
• According to a new geographic literacy study 4 out of 10 American students couldn’t find Iraq on a map. However 10 out of 10 Mexicans could find the U.S. without a map.
• Tomorrow is Cinco de Mayo. The day that Mexicans celebrate their second day off this week.
• As you know, Cinco de Mayo celebrates driving the French out of Mexico. So apparently Mexico has stricter immigration laws than we do.
• Today of course was the “Day Without Immigrants” as they called it. Or as the Native Americans call it “the good old days”.
• A day without immigrants. Did Schwarzenegger work today?
• Once again there was 100,000 people in the streets today. Not immigrants, but SUV owners walking to work.
• Some are calling Monday’s march a National Coming Out Day for Latinos. They’re equating being Latino to being gay. Hey, I think it’s a bit easier to tell your parents you’re Latino!
• Lots of businesses were closed, streets were closed – everything was closed but that big hole down on the border.
• There’s a lot of debate on what we call these people. Some say “illegals” is too harsh. Then there’s “undocumented worker.” What is that? I left my wallet in Mexico?
• The demographics of Mexico are changing they say. For example in 1978 a typical Mexican mother had seven children. Now she has two children in Mexico and the other five are born in the United States.

• There’s been quite the outrage over the Spanish version of the “Star Spangled Banner” that was released. One good thing though is that now at all the Major League Baseball parks all the players can now understand the words.
• The heaviest man in the world lives in Mexico, he weighs over 1200 pounds! In fact he tried to cross the border once and was caught by officials in California, Arizona and New Mexico.

Letterman

• Tomorrow is Cinco de Mayo. Everyone is in the mood. Rush Limbaugh has tested positive for margaritas.
• It was a beautiful day here in New York City. It was so nice that all the immigrants took another day off.

I’m talking toTom Martino KHOW-Denver right now. Listen online here

The legendary musician Charlie Daniels recently made a public statement on his website about immigration. The significance here: This is one of the staunchest supporters Bush has had in the entertainment industry. Daniels has backed many of Bush’s more controversial decisions–and is now breaking ranks.

I don’t know how everybody else feels about it, but to me I think Hispanic people in this country, legally or illegally, made a huge public relations mistake with their recent demonstrations.

I don’t blame anybody in the world for wanting to come to the United States of America, as it is a truly wonderful place. But when the first thing you do when you set foot on American soil is illegal it is flat out wrong and I don’t care how many lala land left heads come out of the woodwork and start trying to give me sensitivity lessons.

I don’t need sensitivity lessons, in fact I don’t have anything against Mexicans, I just have something against criminals and anybody who comes into this country illegally is a criminal and if you don’t believe it try coming into America from a foreign country without a passport and see how far you get.

What disturbs me about the demonstrations is that it’s tantamount to saying, “I am going to come into your country even if it means breaking your laws and there’s nothing you can do about it.”

It’s an “in your face” action and speaking just for me I don’t like it one little bit and if there were a half dozen pairs of gonads in Washington bigger than English peas it wouldn’t be happening.

Where are you, you bunch of lilly livered, pantywaist, forked tongued, sorry excuses for defenders of The Constitution? Have you been drinking the water out of the Potomac again?

And even if you pass a bill on immigration it will probably be so pork laden and watered down that it won’t mean anything anyway. Besides, what good is another law going to do when you won’t enforce the ones on the books now?

And what ever happened to the polls guys? I thought you folks were the quintessential finger wetters. Well you sure ain’t paying any attention to the polls this time because somewhere around eighty percent of Americans want something done about this mess, and mess it is and getting bigger everyday.

This is no longer a problem, it is a dilemma and headed for being a tragedy. Do you honestly think that what happened in France with the Muslims can’t happen here when the businesses who hire these people finally run out of jobs and a few million disillusioned Hispanics take to the streets?

If you, Mr. President, Congressmen and Senators, knuckle under on this and refuse to do something meaningful it means that you care nothing for the kind of country your children and grandchildren will inherit.

But I guess that doesn’t matter as long as you get re-elected.

Shame on you.

Pray for our troops.

This was followed up by the following post:

Out Of My Face

One of the big problems in America today is that if you have the nerve to say anything derogatory about any group of people (except Christians) you are going to be screamed at by the media and called a racist, a bigot and anything else they can think of to call you.

Well I’ve been pounded by the media before and I’m still rockin’ and rollin’ and when it comes to speaking the truth I fear not.
And the truth is that the gutless, gonadless, milksop politicians are just about to sell out the United States of America because they don’t have the intestinal fortitude to stand up to the face reality.

And reality is that we would never allow any other group of people to have 12 million illegals in this country and turn around and say, ”Oh it’s ok, ya’ll can stay here if you’ll just allow us to slap your wrist.”

And I know that some of you who read this column are saying
“Well what’s wrong with that?”

I’ll tell you what’s wrong with it. These people could be from Mars as far as we know. We don’t know who they are, where they are or what they’re up to and the way the Congress is going we’re not going to.

Does this make sense? Labor force you say? We already subsidize corporate agriculture as it is, must we subsidize their labor as well?

If these people were from Haiti would we be so fast to turn a blind eye to them or if they were from Somalia or Afghanistan? I think not.

All the media shows us are pictures of hard working Hispanics who have crossed the border just to try to better their life. They don’t show you pictures of the Feds rounding up members of MS 13, the violent gang who came across the same way the decent folks did. They don’t tell you about the living conditions of the Mexican illegals some fat cat hired to pick his crop.

I want to make two predictions. No. 1: This situation is going to grow and fester until it erupts in violence on our streets
while the wimps in Washington drag their toes in the dirt and try to figure how many tons of political hay they can make to the acre.

No 2: Somebody is going to cross that border with some kind of weapon of mass destruction and set it off in a major American city after which there will be a backlash such as this country has never experienced and the Capitol building in Washington will probably tilt as Congressmen and Senators rush to the other side of the issue.

I don’t know about you but I would love to see just one major politician stand up and say, “I don’t care who I make mad and I don’t care how many votes I lose, this is a desperate situation and I’m going to lead the fight to get it straightened out.”

I don’t blame anybody for wanting to come to America, but if you don’t respect our immigration laws why should you respect any others.

And by the way, this is America and our flag has stars and stripes. Please get that other one out of my face.

Pray for our troops

Charlie, I for one welcome you to the ranks of Americans that have spoken out on the topic of immigration–many of whom, I might add, don’t necessarily have the kind of secure position you have. These statements are a really good start. There is a lot of work to do before this problem is solved.
