From the Desk of: Steve Elliott,

As you know, Congressman Duncan Hunter has been amongthe strong advocates for the border fence and stoppingillegal immigration. That is why I want share with you my interview withHunter regarding his recent endorsement of Mike Huckabee. Go here to listen: http://www.firesociety.com/blog/107/22149/?src=111 Before I continue, please understand that Grassfire.org doesnot endorse or oppose candidates. In addition, I personallyhave not endorsed any candidate for president. ed, many citizens concerned about illegal immigrationhave rightfully had serious reservations about Huckabee'spast actions and the veracity of his current positions onthese issues. That's precisely why I wanted to hear fromCongressman Hunter.

I too wanted to know how he reconciledHuckabee's questionable record as governor on immigration withHuck's very strong campaign platform. + + Immigration Issues Heating Up I also asked Rep. Hunter about his new bill that seeks tooverturn the Hutchison amendment which was snuck into theomnibus spending bill just before Christmas and guttedthe Secure Fence Act. I told Rep. Hunter that Grassfire will soon be launching amajor grassroots campaign to overturn the Hutchisonfence-gutting amendment. Be watching for that in the coming week.


Mexico's Calderon in the U.S. today All this is happening while Mexican president Felipe Calderonis visiting the U.S. Why would he come in the middle of a hotlycontested primary election? One analyst says the trip is "tomake sure he puts Mexico on the next president's desk and eventry to shape the bilateral agenda." Of course, the mainstream media is trying to say immigration isnot such a big deal to Americans anymore -- that last summer'suprising against the amnesty bill was just a bunch of hot air. I think it's time once again to make all these guys feel the heat! Thanks for the stand you are taking. Steve Elliott, PresidentGrassfire.org P.S. I would enjoy getting your feedback regarding my interviewwith Duncan Hunter, and what he had to say. Go here to listen to the interview:
