Lest we forget

On the eve of this years presidential election, we should pause in reflection of past events that have shamed the American justice system. Notably, the incarcerations of three Americans for doing nothing but their duty in protection of people such as you and I. We all remember Ignacio Ramos, and Jose Compean, US Border Patrol agents convicted of a crime against an illegal alien on US soil near the Mexican border. Yes, their trial charges included "conspiring to cover up their crime". We may also recall the prosecutor granting immunity to the illegal alien upon his return from Mexico to testify at trial. We are familiar with the repetitive offenses committed against US law by this individual. So, who is it that are still in custody, and denied their freedom by zealous federal prosecutors: Ramos and Compean, that's who!

The third individual, Stephanie Mohr, of Prince George's County, Maryland, is currently serving the fifth year of a ten year sentence. She was convicted of violating the civil rights of, once again, an illegal alien. Upon confronting two men on a roof top, she and her partner in accord with law, and police standards, placed them under arrest. One suspect made a move as if to flee, and Stephanie let loose her canine which was trained to bite and hold, again, in compliance with department standards. Nothing came of it at the time, however, at the midnight hour, one of that cadre of zealous illegal alien first prosecutors charged Stephanie with a civil rights crime against an illegal alien. After a hung jury deliberation, the unsatisfied prosecutor plowed forward with a new trial, and a jury more potentially in favor of poor illegal aliens. This time, Stephanie was convicted, and is currently serving the fifth year of a ten year sentence.

I have sent mail to President Bush, and to Vice President Dick Chaney, asking for the pardoning of these three US law enforcement personnel. Won't you take a few minutes to review these cases, and call upon the President, and Vice President to do what must be done?

Remember. Ignacio, Jose, and Stephenie are continually denied their freedom. While we still have ours, let's do the right and proper thing in calling for the President to do what came so easily for former President Clinton.The nature of the crimes didn't bother President Clinton, neither did the appropriateness of granting pardons to individuals who did not deserve them. In this case, there is no way in which to justify what has happened to, and continues to happen to, Ignacio, Jose, and Stephanie. PS her five year old daughter would approve, as would Ignacio's and Jose's children.

And now, back to those whom we hold close to our hearts. our children and grand children, those who will save us from ourselves, and from others...

On the eve before the most important election in decades, would you not think that Bush and Cheney have other more urgent matters on their hands. Racial discrimination seems to be floating in the air, and is it you who is blowing these ideas? Your disdain for Mexicans and Blacks is highly apprant here.

We the people would like to see a copy of the "letters" sent to the
Pres. and his Vice.

You, young man, have done a fantastic job of telling the truth, and portraying the justice and freedom we all deserve as Patriots. You are a Patriot, and likened to Abe Lincoln or Paul Revere, but instead of "The English are coming" you are warning, The Democrats are coming!
Let Freedom Ring. Rush to Philly and ring that Bell! You go Boy go!

Why aren't you running? We could use a good guy like you. If Mitt
Romney had chosen you as his mate,
now that would be something!
