This is a riot. Clever radio talk show host Sean Hannity had Kyrsten Sinema (D), an Arizona House of Representative, up in arms when Sean Hannity tried to make a point about illegal aliens crossing into the U.S. by stepping over a fence putting his feet on the one side of the border fence facing Mexico and then back on U.S. soil. When Kyrsten Sinema (D) got wind of this from ACLU watchers she sent out a News Release on April 20, 2005 using Arizona taxpayer's money to falsely accuse Sean Hannity of a Federal crime:
Mr. Sean Hannity, a well-paid commentator for Fox News, climbed over a barbed wire fence separating the United States from Mexico yesterday at about 3:15 p.m. A few minutes later he climbed back over the fence, breaking federal law by reentering the U.S. illegally.
Mr. Hannity's border violations were videotaped by ACLU Legal Observers. The Border Patrol was contacted, but they chose not to arrest or cite Mr. Hannity for his willful violation of federal law. Likewise, Minutemen in the vicinity of the incident did not take the opportunity to turn Mr. Hannity over to federal officials, as they have allegedly done with all other illegal immigrants apprehended on the border this month.
Federal law, specifically 19 U.S.C. Section 1459(a), requires all "individuals arriving in the United States other than by vessel, vehicle, or aircraft [to] enter the United States only at a border crossing point designated by the Secretary; and immediately report the arrivals and present themselves, and all articles accompanying them for inspection; to the customs officer at the customs facility designated for that crossing point."
Sean Hannity was prepared for this by knowing about the Federal law in the first place by knowing exactly where the TRUE Mexican border lies. Hannity had Sheriff Larry Dever explain it to viewers Tuesday night about the "3 feet" beyond the fence is still U.S. territory.
Hannity pointed this out later on when he interviewed Sinema after she issued the press release by taking a little known fact that Mrs. Sinema and the ACLU failed to see that Sean Hannity NEVER broke any Federal laws when:
U.S. territory extends for three feet beyond the fence!
Sean Hannity was careful to stay on the U.S. side when he was doing his story. And yet in Hannity's interview of Sinema, she never answered his question of why she put out a news release, funded by Arizona taxpayers, saying he broke a Federal law.
It was nice of Mrs. Kyrsten Sinema, who is also a Green Party person (read this link where she laments about "dirty politics" thrown at the Green Party...look what she did to Hannity!) at one time, to chase after Sean Hannity thinking he broke a Federal law. He never did. And it was also, doubly nice, for Mrs. Kyrsten Sinema to cite the Federal code regarding what people must do to enter into the United States....legally. Which is richly ironic considering the lacking gumption by President Bush to do something about the border problem.
Even though USC Title 19 Section 1459 addresses the reporting requirements for individuals as those requirements relate to customs or tariffs. The Arizona Democratic Caucus would do well to read the proper title of the U.S.C. before publishing a press release.
And USC Title 8 Section 1324 and the INS Act 274 deal with illegal immigration and illegal aliens crossing the border.
I hope Mr. Sean Hannity sues Mrs. Sinema for false reporting and slander.
Mrs. Sinema and the ACLU earned the coveted Darwin Award.
And you want dumb? How about when the ACLU hires "ACLU watchers" for the Minute Man Project (wildly successful!) who are nothing but pot smokers caught in the act?
Duhhhh. Welcome to the Pot Gang where dumbness reigns.
Exactly.
