22 bags of garbage were left at Rep Koble office

Twenty-two bags of garbage were left leaning against
the door of Rep. Jim Kolbe's (R-AZ) office in Sierra

Vista, Arizona.

(See http://www.svherald.com/articles/2003/09/29/news/news1.txt) The garbage was gathered earlier that day from a lay-up site used by illegal aliens as they crossed through Cochise County, Arizona on their way north. The garbage was unsightly, smelly, and prevented access to Congressman Kolbe's office until it was removed. The illegal alien garbage was stuffed into bags provided by Cochise County which are clearly labeled "Cochise County UDA Cleanup". (UDA means "Undocumented Aliens". Sanitation engineers were forced to come and remove the trash and to sanitize the sidewalk upon which the trash sat and the wall and door against which the trash was leaned in order for Rep. Kolbe's office to resume normal operations.

Until now, no one has taken responsibility for this
act of protest against Kolbe's failed border policies.
No one has come forward to claim credit for this act
against the Congressman who is sponsoring a stealth
amnesty "guest worker" bill (HR2899) which will lead
to even more illegal aliens and thus more illegal
alien trash in our desert and backyards.
No one has put their name to this act against Kolbe
who defies 70% of Arizona citizens when he opposes
the Protect Arizona Now Initiative
(The Arizona Taxpayer and Citizen Protection Act).
No one has said, "I did it!" when it comes to this
protest against Rep. Kolbe who has, every time,
voted against allowing INS and now DHS to request
military assistance on the border. No one has
stepped forward as the perpetrator of this act against
Kolbe who is primarily responsible for the
dismantling of the Border Patrol checkpoints
on the highways north in Cochise County.

No one has claimed responsibility,
until now.

I, the Undersigned, claim responsibility for this act
of protest against Rep. Jim Kolbe and his failed
border policies.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned

Rep. Jim Kolbe will not seek re election

Rep. Jim Kolbe
the only gay Republican in Congress,
announced Wednesday that he will not seek
a 12th term next year, and cited Washington's
increasingly partisan atmosphere as one reason
he's leaving.
