I am ANGRY, no, I am beyond angry, almost to the point of homicidal rage. What could possibly make me break out of my normally kind and gentle state of mind (stop snickering, BC)?

It seems that El Jorge has made an end-run around the American people and pushed through the Mexican Truck Pilot Program without any fanfare to alert the general public. Mark R. Taylor, a contributor of the site Family Security Matters has an excellent article on why EVERY American should be concerned about this program. Mr. Taylor points out that, under this program, we have literaly opened the floodgates of illegal immigration, and that is the LEAST of the faults.

The MTPP is set to begin on Sept. 7, 2007. I thought that this travesty had been put to rest last year, but apparently, I was sorely mistaken.... it costs thousands of dollars to get the permits for Mexican trucking companies to operate in the U.S. ---- now, just WHERE do you think that these companies will get the operating capital to get those permits? In Mexico? Can you say "narco-dollars" ? And do you honestly believe that the drug lords will part with that capital to try to get into a legitimate business? IF you believe that, please E-mail me, I have a bridge I would really like to sell you.

Even without those criminal and security concerns, ask yourself, what happens to an industry when a large group of new players are willing to work for a third of the usual going rate? Ask the thousands of UAW EXworkers after the Japanese auto plants took over production here in the U.S. It's been nearly impossible for the Independant Trucker to make a living under the D.O.T. rules and the lowering of freight rates over the last 15 years or so. This program will now make it that much harder for the Freight companies themselves to be competitive too; remember, something like 90% of all goods are shipped via trucks - do you really think that such a vital part of our economy should be controlled by foreign entities?

We should all contact our representatives in Washington and tell them that we the People will NOT stand for the MTPP to be allowed to progress. The time is short, and we need to act NOW.

Patriots, the time has come to get the ammo out of storage and loaded into magazines. The time is very near to show those in Washington that they are our SERVANTS, NOT our masters, and WE the People have decided that our servants have abrogated the responsibities that we entrusted them with and they must be replaced, by force if necessary.
