Fellow Patriot,
 Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), speaking at a border issues conference yesterday, said 663 individuals arrested along the southwest border in 2010 were from countries known to have ties with terrorism.
In the last year alone, 448,000 individuals were detained at the southwest border – 59,000 came from countries other than Mexico. Among them were countries like Afghanistan, Libya, Pakistan, Somalia, Yemen, and four other so-called "state-sponsors of terrorism" – Cuba, Iran, Syria, and Sudan.
Even more terrifying – only 84% of the approximately 448,000 illegal aliens arrested by the U.S. Border Patrol were not prosecuted!
At the 15th annual U.S.-Mexico Congressional Border Issues Conference, the Director of National Intelligence was quoted as saying that the 663 individuals arrested represented a national security vulnerability and that we need to do more.
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano consistently evades the question of results by limiting the majority of her remarks on border security to the resources devoted to border areas and even claims that "it's clear from every statistical measure that the approach is working."
Sec. Napolitano also called the Border Patrol apprehensions a "key indicator of illegal traffic" along the U.S. borders.
Clearly, the "approach" taken by the Obama Administration is NOT working and whatever  statistics were fed to her by the Pro-Amnesty administration are wrong and politically motivated.
If that's the case, we have much, much bigger issues on our hands than the influx of Hispanic illegal immigrants draining our economic resources and bringing their crime and drugs over the border to our neighborhoods.
We can't count on President Obama to secure our borders or to crackdown on illegal immigration. He is desperate to win re-election in 2012 and will even grant amnesty to 12 million illegal immigrants in order to do so.
So what will it take for Washington to listen and to lobby for America's safety and to take action and secure our borders immediately?
Your support.
Will you help us?
As you well know, Minuteman PAC is an independent Political Action Committee of the Minuteman civilian border security movement, supported by many volunteers of the nation's oldest, largest and most-effective citizen's border vigilance group, the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps.
Our mission is clear: Help elect candidates who carry out their constitutional duty to defend our borders and oust those who do not.
Meanwhile, your special gift of $35, $60, $100, or more will give us the financial ammunition we need to:
- fund a massive anti-amnesty effort with a phone, TV, radio, newspaper, and Internet campaign;
- mobilize Minuteman PAC activists from all over the nation to protest any legislative action that will reward illegal aliens with "amnesty";
