NATIONAL HERO AWARD

Robert Vasquez and the folks at the Minuteman Project

 

-Martin Kite-Powell

 

 

 

This month we offer Blogbat.us’ very first National Hero Award to a great man and a great American: Canyon County, Idaho Commissioner Robert Vasquez.

 

On the 12^th of January Canyon County District I Commissioner Vasquez announced he would declare the county a disaster area in order to recover lost revenue due to the economic devastation of invading illegals coached by their government in the art of bleeding dry social services in the United States and the steep jump in the prison population in his state.

 

Commissioner Vasquez who is of hispanic heritage said the Mexican government was encouraging its nationals to get off the Mexican dole and move to the United States to become someone else's problem. The pamphlet, "Guide for the Mexican Migrant" published by the government of Mexico shows Mexicans how to avoid American authorities, live off the welfare system and commit other crimes against the Americans.

 

He also points out the dangers posed in disease control and prevention with un-matriculated foreign nationals.

 

 

• Forget the possibility of terrorists.
• Forget the illegal drug smuggling.
• Forget the horrible booming crime of the cross-border sex-slave trade that is taking thousands of young American 12, 13 and 14 year old girls of all economic backgrounds by force out of the country through towns like San Diego, CA via the Mexican border.

 

 

The Canyon County Board of Commissioners adopted the measure on the 18^th, calling the requirement to care for illegal aliens an unfunded mandate. The Board has submitted the declaration to Governor Dirk Kempthorne.

  

Back in April of 2004 Vasquez sent the Mexican government consulate in Salt Lake City a bill for $2 million to pay for the costs of "keeping" the illegally entering Mexican nationals who have settled in his state.

 

Vasquez:

 

My fellow American's, constituents, friends and neighbors expect their county commissioner to spend the taxes on services for American's not on illegal alien's healthcare, education or detention.

 

The reality is we are securing the borders of Iraq but we are not securing the borders of the United States, that is the reality.

 

Naturally, the race-baiters and pro-lawless groups oppose commissioner Vasquez. The Idaho Migrant Council says,

 

They would, because no native born American wants to work for those wages to work for those conditions and I think historically if we look at it America it has been built and has prospered based on illegal immigration.

 

So in other words, the IMC has no problem with the abuse of illegal aliens for the monetary gain of unethical employers who favor slavery of non-citizens (the kind who can "disappear" or be abused in other ways and nobody notices) above honest work and honest pay. Groups like the IMC have obviously sold out the pride of their own heritage and the aspirations of those who come to the United States legally.

 

They add,

 

I think he is trying to pander to the racism and the ignorance that still exists in this country.

 

Mr. Vasquez is racist against people of hispanic heritage?

 

Ex absurdum, ad nauseum.

 

Meanwhile the crescendo of silence continues to grow from Leftwing environmental groups about the well-documented eco-catastrophe caused by the illegal aliens.

 

Robert Vasquez is just one of many millions of Americans of Hispanic origin who want to defend America from being the place where Vicente Fox’s government dumps the people it no longer wants. Because of that Commissioner Vasquez is a true hero and he deserves the admiration and respect of every American.

 

 

 

 

 

Honorable Mention:

 

A worthwhile and vital group, the Minuteman Project is looking for civilian volunteers from all states and backgrounds to peacefully help protect the Arizona border with Mexico during the month of April. Donations would also be greatly appreciated.

 

James W. Gilcrest, the group’s founder has been featured in the Washington Times, on the Laura Ingraham Show and is scheduled to appear on FNC’s Hannity & Colmes later this week. He told me in an e-mail today that while there are no such plans in other border states, so far 15 people from Texas have volunteered and the MP website says there are 222 from 35 other states ready to participate. This is a cross-cultural group that is not about being against the illegal alien – they know he is only the symptom of a problem that originates right here. It is about boundaries. So while we welcome those who come here legally, we must stand for the rule of law and equal access and opportunity to all in the legal immigration process. That very rare and precious rule of law is the very form upon which our Constitution was able to be established.

 

The website also offers a message board where people can coordinate and discuss these issues as they affect their own states or on the national scene.

 

The Minuteman Project hopes to create not public awareness, since the public is already painfully aware of the problem, rather public solidarity and unified outrage and...the government awareness that is so badly needed here.
