Minutemen to Bush: Build Fence or We Will

TUCSON, Ariz. - 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, of course _ "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."

1. Only if the minutemen promise to stay on the other side of it...

What a bunch of kooks! Timothy McVeigh would have fit right in with that crew.

5. Indeed, maybe little Timmy might've kept himself busy.

If those kooks think that they can build a fence worth two shits on their own time/effort, vaya con fuckin' dios, guys.

6. What is this obsession

what might be colloquially called muppets ?

7. Get busy, Chris. You'll be done by 2206 if you start now.

And you'll "break ground" or "break wind" on Memorial Day?

Shop around - I hear you'll save a few bucks if you use illegals to do the work while your beer-guzzlin' clowns in their lawn chairs watch from a safe distance.

Bwahahahahahahaha. You are such a joke.

8. Oooh, a threat.

When will Chris Simcox realize that his president doesn't want any fences?

9. Well, that's wonderful!

As a taxpayer, I do not want my money going to an iron curtain redux. If those a-holes want to spend their own money putting up fences (on their own private property), then they can knock themselves out.
