Re: Illegal aliens plus

Dear President Bush:

To say that for the most part I am disappointed in you, would be to put it mildly. But
why should you care? After all, your political advisors are telling you to pander to
whatever you wish because those who support you have no one else to turn to.

That may be the case, but I can assure you that there will be no further campaign
contributions from this household, and although I could never vote for one of the nine
Democrat dwarfs, I may not vote at all. To vote for a man who has neither the courage
nor the integrity to fight for what is right for America and Americans rather than
lawbreakers, would be to discredit my franchise.

You, and your administration, just don’t get it. I was a strong and vocal supporter, but I
am disappointed with your domestic policies. I supported you on Iraq and on the tax
cuts. But signing the campaign finance reform bill was wrong; signing the Ted
Kennedy education fiasco was wrong; and the Medicare reform that a large
percentage of seniors alive today will never see does too little too late. Your constant
pandering to that lout who is President of Mexico, Vicente Fox, is wrong. Your
proposal for amnesty, no matter what you call it, without first solving the problem with
illegal immigration is wrong, and worse than that, dangerous for the way of life we have
known and loved. Did our forefathers give their lives and efforts to forge this country so
that we could hear, “Press one for English” on the telephone? So that a person who
could not even understand the English language could vote?

You are the first President to not only be on watch, but to assist, when one of the most
basic and treasured rights in the Bill of Rights has been abridged. Pornography - OK,
but don’t speak out during an election. Why, because that pseudo Republican McCain,
the darling of the east coast left, from Arizona wanted it?

Homeland Security is a joke. Make Grandma from Minnesota strip down and be
searched, and check Momma’s shoes, but leave our borders open. If you or Tom
Ridge think our comfort level is raised when Grandma takes off her shoes at the
airport, all the while thousands of illegals are pouring across our borders, you are
mistaken. Without protecting our borders there can be no secure homeland. And now,
a proposal to give rewards to those who have broken our laws and come into our
country illegally goes beyond the bounds of reason. Let’s let all the burglars out of
prison. After all, there are so many of them it’s getting hard to feed them. Let us create
a peon class and destroy middle America with low paying jobs that are competed for
by those with no heritage or ties to this republic.

You are going to open the door to a mass exodus from Mexico at a massive additional
cost to the taxpayers of this country. And while Jose gets every benefit known to
mankind, our veterans, our seniors, and the poor in our country, citizens all, go
begging for assistance. America is now a place where a citizen cannot deal with his
funds in excess of $10,000.00 without telling the feds about it, but millions of illegals
working here can send billions of American dollars to a country that has disowned
them? And all the while getting free medical care, free education, and the like? Vicente
the Fox must be laughing all the way to the bank.

You fight for the right(?) of every illegal illiterate downtrodden refugee from anywhere
to come in and take advantage of our tax dollars and generosity. But where is your
fight for your sorely needed judicial nominees and tort reform. And how could you
countenance the paying out of billions to the families who survived 9/11 (an act we
were not responsible for), while the survivors of men and women who have given their
lives for their country in Iraq receive a paltry $15,000.00? Where is the fight against
the secularization of our America? You, sir, a President who has a majority in the
House and in the Senate, have squandered it.

You have been debased by the political arena. Instead of standing on principle and
fighting for what is right, fighting to preserve what made our country great and strong,
you are more concerned with pandering for votes to be re-elected. And why should we
continue your legacy? Is the enemy within the greater evil than the enemy without who
seeks the throne?

You have lost me. I cannot use my franchise to vote for a man who, in my opinion,
although strong in a few areas, has let this country down in so many others. You have
a sworn duty to enforce the laws of this country - including immigration laws - and you
turn your back on doing so.

You sir, a supposed Texan, have failed to Remember the Alamo. You would also do
well to remember the words of Gen. George Patton,"Moral courage is the most
valuable and usually the most absent characteristic in men."You would appear to
have lost the courage to fight for what is right for America.

Respectfully,

Bill Berlat
