Letter to the Editor

This letter was submitted to the Editor of the Alamogordo Daily News today.

Recently I heard a first-hand account of the atrocities on our American border with Mexico. Why has it been ignored? For what conceivable reason does our government have to conceal this from us? Why no more than to sell our sovereignty!
Why would our own government sell our sovereignty? What could possibly give them pause to even listen to such treason? Could it be greed, power, corruption and perhaps fame? In years past, these same attributes would have caused a public hanging—and rightly so.

We’re supposed to be Americans—a loving and benevolent people full of compassion for the lesser nations and the weaker people of the world. There is nothing wrong with that. But, and you have to have a “but,” what about our own soul as America? Can we afford to sell it? The answer is a resounding “no.”

We used to be the most powerful nation on earth. We aren’t anymore. We have so-called leaders who have met in private, secluded from media and prying eyes to secretly sell our sovereignty right from under us.

Consider the agenda of our government in 2008. Why would Americans want to merge with Mexico and Canada? I can see a reason why we might want to “conquer” them, but to merge with them? No, yet it is being done right now, this minute. Americans don’t want the Amero as our new dollar and we don’t want open borders.

We want illegal aliens deported. (Immigration implies legality, therefore they are not immigrants.) If they come here legally, that’s entirely different. A large percentage of aliens come from Mexico, but they’re also coming through our porous borders from all over the world.

What diseases do they carry? What crimes have they committed? What new crimes do they intend? How will they live? Where will they live? The answer is they will live where they choose, taking from our treasury what is ours and maintaining power through their own languages.

We simply cannot afford them. We don’t want them here. Deport them—now.

We want an honest government with leaders who actually have integrity and qualities we have come to expect from Americans. Sadly, we have very little of this, maybe 5 in the whole country. What we have is a corrupt government full of self-serving demagogues (550 or so people) who have nothing in mind but to further their own coffers as they sell our sovereignty, but oh yes, they’ll possibly write you a form letter saying absolutely nothing in response to your query.

It’s time for a revolution. Our government is supposed to serve us, not the other way around. They clearly are not doing what they are highly paid to do. But, I ask, where are the leaders we need? They certainly are not the lot we’re faced with in this upcoming election! Where are real patriots who would become heroes to take back a generation and a nation? Just food for thought before it’s too late.
