Dear Editor:
Heard today that the new
Courtesy submission
On July 27, 1953 the United
Nations, with its most prominent
supporter, the United States of
America, signed a truce with
Communist North Korea. That
agreement has remained rela-
tively stable for the past 60 years.
The USA also signed a peace
treaty with Communist North
Vietnam 40 years ago; a treaty the
North Vietnamese broke 2 years
later. The subsequent invasion of
South Vietnam, and the overall
instability of Southeast Asia that
followed, resulted in the killing
of over 3 million of the region's
inhabitants. Both the Korean
War and the Vietnam War have
been referred to by some histori-
ans as continuing conflicts of the
Second World War.
Please join the Rodeo, NM
area community in commemorat-
• ing the 60th and 40th anniversa-
ries of these wars that helped stop
communist aggression. This 4th
of July Parade in Rodeo will in-
clude parade entries from partici-
pants of both conflicts. The Ro-
deo 4th of July Parade will be held
on Independence Day starting at
6 pm.
There is also a need for vet-
erans of these wars to join one or
both of the parade entries (some

immigration bill has been writ-
ten on so many pieces of paper
that it. already weighs 24 lbs.
That is huge!! Nobody can read
that!! To use some of Obama's
own words, "Let's be clear" on
immigration. Let's let every-
body get a fair shake. Appar-
ently there's 11 million law-
breakers here, the Pres, demo-
crats & some republicans want
to give them amnesty, (at least
that is what ole John McCain
said, "We must pass this am-
nesty bill) Humph,gag hurmp!
He nearly choked on his tongue
when he said it too. Ha ha. It's
amazing the lies they tell! No
how, to get a fair shake & have
a fair share, they should also
allow 11 million Germans, 11
million French, 11 million En-
glish, 11 million Japanese, 11
million Africans etc. To be fair
they should all get a fair shake
at becoming American citizens
huh? All without shutting down
the border. Ole Schummer said,
"It will take years, years & years
to get that done." In other words
it is the same ole BULL
HOCKEY. It seems funny that
the NSA, IRS can find an
American CITIZEN but the
Government can't find 11 mil-
lion illegals. In 1986 Reagan
gave amnesty & congress was
going to make sure the border
is closed!! HA HA Didn't hap=
pen Vote NO on immigration
until the border is closed.
Also the Constitution al-
lows the right of citizens to keep
& bear arms, the democrats
want to disarm citizens, so to
have my fair shake, lets be fair,
take all democrats guns away
from them. They are the ones
that want it done, I think that's
fair. Take their "body guards"
guns away. Call your Senators
& Congress people, vote NO on
Gun Control.
Nuff said for now
God Bless our wonderful
Military & our Country.

lot of points up for grabs! Each
