HoustonChronicle.com – Harrop: Just a Minutemen: Washington’s place you ought to be — Good editorial.

I’ve got news for the Minutemen tracking illegal aliens in southern Arizona. If you really want to control illegal immigration, you are in the wrong place. The place to go is Washington. And the people to confront are President Bush and Congress, not the Mexican peasants sneaking into the United States.

The Bush administration is using you.

The Minutemen are volunteers who patrol the border in search of illegal immigrants. Their work is utterly futile.

Everyone knows that on the first or 10th try, the illegal alien will get past the circus at the border. From there, it’s on to Houston, Chicago or Anytown USA, where he’s home free.
