Do it Yourself

Minuteman border watch leader Chris Simcox has a message for President Bush: Build new security fencing along the border with Mexico or private citizens will.
Simcox said Wednesday that he's sending an ultimatum to the president, through the media, "You can't get through to the president any other way," to deploy military reserves and the National Guard to the Arizona border by May 25.
Or, Simcox said, by the Memorial Day weekend Minuteman Civil Defense Corps volunteers and supporters will break ground to start erecting fencing privately.
"We have had landowners approach," Simcox said in an interview. "We've been working on this idea for a while. We're going to show the federal government how easy it is to build these security fences, how inexpensively they can be built when built by private people and free enterprise.

When the entire nation cannot get their government to represent them, what choice is left except to do it yourself. The "Minutemen", those horrible vigilantes as described by Senor Bush, the second president of Mexico, are really embarassing the federal government. They are shooting holes into the federal's excuses as to why the government is unable to do anything about this alien invasion. Now it's time to cheaply build a border fence anathema to the ruling parties. The Minutemen are going to construct a fence cheaply, quickly, and much to the chagrin of the federals. God bless em'.

While I usually agree with most of what the Minutmen do and say, I can't bring myself to agree with this statement by Simcox,"You can't get through to the president any other way."

Don't be ridiculous Simcox. There is no getting through to the president.
