Ignored and sacrificed.

Above is an article that all Americans need to know about. There is a YouTube video which needs to be watched by all those who have any love for this country and its values.

While Bush gives a speech in Abu Dhabi on the support and spreading of Democracy, these very values of a Democratic nation, his home nation, are under attack and erosion on our Southern border with no apparent sense of urgency.

Over the last year, 29 incursions by military or armed state officials from Mexico have been documented. More than 200 in the past ten years. These are only what has been seen, who knows what or how many have not been documented. The U.S. border guard, UAV's and National Guard units patrol borders in Iraq, but the numbers are pitifully low on our own border. There is more security at a Baseball game per square mile than on the Rio Grande.

I am afraid what it will take is a mass killing of citizens or the loss of a member of one of the political parties families for action to take place. Its a matter of time before something very evil happens. The Zetas, Mexican special forces trained by the US and now gone maverick, since there is more money in drugs and banditry, control the towns just across the river from the US.

A story on the recent Rio Bravo firefight:

The kind of terror we associate with Afghanistan, Iraq and Colombia can show up a lot closer to home. Take, for example, the recent "Tamaulipas Drug War" just south of the U.S. border in Mexico. In an era of "small war," what amounts to a major battle took place on January 7th, in Rio Bravo, Tamaulipas, Mexico. Mexican Federal Police personnel spotted a van carrying three men, who were openly carrying automatic weapons. When the police attempted to stop the van, the men opened fire, abandoned their vehicle, and fled into a nearby house, which was apparently the headquarters of a drug gang. Heavy fire was soon coming from the building, which like most Mexican houses was of cement-cinder block-rebar construction, and thus essentially a bunker. The police called for reinforcements. As scores of Federal Police and some troops responded, the action grew into a major fire fight. The fight lasted a little over a half hour, as the security forces quickly gained the upper hand, helped by RPGs and, reportedly, machine gun fire, provided by the troops.

When the fighting ended, ten police officers and soldiers had been wounded, but three of the drug gang were dead and ten more, some of them wounded, were in custody. A considerable arsenal was confiscated, including 7 automatic weapons, 16 "sniper rifles," a dozen automatic pistols, and a grenade launcher, plus grenades and ammunition, as well as flack jackets and some radios. Much of the equipment appeared to have come from the U.S.

...

Given that it began when armed men were seen driving through the streets, and that it occurred in close proximity to what appears to have been a major drug operations center, it's possible that incident may have been a deliberate effort by "El Lazco" to provoke a shootout with the Federal Police, in an attempt to intimidate them, as he done with many of the local police forces in the area. Even this is not the case, the likelihood is that there will be more such battles, as the current Mexican government seems to be serious about dealing with the drug cartels

...

If the druggies intentionally provoked this fire fight it was a mistake. This is a real win for the federalis. What the insurgents need to take away from this battle is that Mexican authorities finally have enough fire power in the area to deal with them. the post goes on to point out Mexico's failure to enforce its own border when it comes to importing weapons.

This shows you that the lawlessness of the Border has gotten out of hand.When will the states take it into their own hands, since the Feds do not seem to care, and do what it takes to secure their own security. The Supreme Court of the United States has ruled that police have no duty to respond to 911 calls. It seems the greatest 911 call of all, the out cry of American citizens to stop this invasion, has also been ignored. The concept of self defense is not guaranteed by any governmental office, although the Constitution requires it, and has in fact now been made personal on a border wide scale, so we must be responsible for our own safety, whether in our home(our lodgings) or our home, this nation.

IS THERE REALLY ANY DIFFERENCE?

A Socialist is a Socialist. When looking at the platforms of each of these two left leaners, how much difference do we find?

Second Amendment - Obama:

Ban semi-automatics, and more possession restrictions

Principles that Obama supports on gun issues:
• Ban the sale or transfer of all forms of semi-automatic weapons.
• Increase state restrictions on the purchase and possession of firearms.
• Require manufacturers to provide child-safety locks with firearms.

Second Amendment - Hillary:

License and register all handgun sales, Tough gun control keeps guns out of wrong hands,Lock up guns; store ammo separately. -

Hillary keeps herself vague on his issue. Obama is more directly anti-Constitutional when it comes to guns.


Border Fence - Obama:

They are both basically the same. Obama voted NO in 2006 and YES in 2007. Hillary has had a less waffling opinion, although one has to really "suspend disbelief" to think she would want to have any sort of border fence, voting NO on the fence and being a one worlder and a Neo-Con.

Democrats on U.S. sovereignty:

Raleigh, NC. Immediately upon assuming the leadership in Congress, the Democrats went to work frantically attempting to make U.S. Foreign Policy subservient to the most corrupt organization in the world, the United Nations. Clearly violating the terms of the U.S. Constitution, which clearly state that the notion of national sovereignty automatically renders null and void any attempt to subvert the nation's policies to an outside 'policing agency,' the Democrats obviously place more trust in the thugs of the U.N., such as Cuba, Syria, Iran, North Korea, and France, than they do the American people and their elected officials. For them to succeed in this scheme would be one more sad and dangerous chapter to add to the already bulging record the Democrats have amassed which fully portrays to the public Jefferson's notion of 'elective despotism.'

Yes, they were elected. The people who elected them gave them power to enact legislation that is clearly antithetical to every Constitutional principle that has guided this nation for most of its history. Thus, according to Jefferson, they would be considered despots, tyrants whose actions are entirely illegitimate.

Republicans want their presidential candidate to promise that he will never try to bamboozle them with a similar so-called "comprehensive" immigration bill or a so-called "DREAM Act," which includes amnesty for the millions of illegal immigrants now in the United States.

Republicans want their candidate to tell us now exactly what he will do to prevent the entry of illegal drugs over the U.S.-Mexico border. They want a presidential candidate to say he will pardon border guards Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean who are unjustly imprisoned for intercepting a professional Mexican drug smuggler.

Republicans want their candidate to build the fence on the U.S.-Mexico border legislated by the Secure Fence Law. Republicans want their candidate to promise to enforce the law against employers hiring illegal immigrants.

Republicans want their candidate to explain how he will lift the tax burden that Americans suffer today in providing a net value of $20,000 a year to every illegal immigrant household.

Republicans want their candidate to stop the entry of Mexican trucks onto U.S. highways and roads. They want their candidate to deep-six the plan called "totalization," which would put illegal immigrants into the U.S. Social Security system.

Republicans want their presidential candidate to protect parents' rights in public schools by repudiating the offensive and impudent 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals' decision ruling that parents' fundamental right to control the upbringing of their children "does not extend beyond the threshold of the school door."

Since the federal government gives about $60 billion a year to public schools, Republicans want their candidate to promise to sign school appropriation bills only if they contain language to protect parents' rights to protect their children against such things as mental health screening; forcing schoolchildren to be put on psychotropic drugs; courses that promote Islam or homosexuality; nosy questionnaires about sex, drugs and suicide; and giving birth control to sixth-grade girls without parents' knowledge or consent.

Smart Republicans want their presidential candidate to reach out to Reagan Democrats by rejecting trade deals that are unfair to American workers and allow foreign countries to discriminate against U.S. producers and products by subsidies and tax rebates. Republicans want to hear a presidential candidate's plan to get the United States out from under the hostility of the World Trade Organization, which has ruled against the United States in 40 out of 47 cases.

Americans want to hear whether or not their presidential candidate supports the "global economy," which forces Americans to compete against pitifully low wages, slave labor, and discriminatory practices imposed by foreign countries and foreign tribunals. Americans don't want to be patronized by being told that we must be more competitive with Chinese factory workers who are paid 30 cents an hour with no benefits.

Grass-roots Americans want their candidate for president to promise that the Security and Prosperity Partnership will not be a steppingstone to a North American Union modeled on the European Union. Republicans expect their candidate to announce that he will never allow the United States to be economically integrated with Mexico and Canada, and will never allow the free movement of labor across open borders.

Most Americans want national leadership so that our economy produces good jobs that enable men to buy a home and a car, support their families, live the American dream and confidently expect their children to have an even better life. We're listening to the candidates and waiting to hear them address these important issues.

HEY !!! ARE YOU LISTENING TO US ???
