		<description><![CDATA[Old Pete is still sucking at the teat of our bloated government, and he&#039;ll do anything to advance this administration&#039;s cause (in his ignorant, abrasive, foolish style).  He acts as if he would open his own home to any of the illegals who sneak into our country.  Ha!  He probably has a security fence around it.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I posted this video to enlighten people who continually vote people like Stark in without a second thought of the consequences. I was born in Oakland &amp; have watched as city after city passed laws that leave a sane person&#039;s mouth hanging in disbelief.

With SF, Oakland, Richmond &amp; SJ declaring themselves &quot;sanctuary cities&quot; for illegal aliens, our cities are looking more like third world countries than the USA!

Is it the American dream to break laws to enter a country, work under the table as the norm or steal identities to get a job, pack 2 or 3 families into a single family dwelling, drive without a license or insurance, &amp; ignore the language spoken in America?

CA &amp; its cities have broken under the stress of supporting illegal aliens. This is because liberal politicians such as Stark, Boxer, Pelosi, Newsom, Lee, De La Fuente &amp; countless others have trashed our &#039;American Dream&#039; in favor of illegal aliens.

We need leaders who place America &amp; Americans FIRST. Anything else is treason.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Pete Stark&#039;s rhetoric and demeanor reflect a dismissive condescending attitude toward those who take the time to meet with him and discuss issues important to them.  No amount of rationalizing by the likes of Josh or anyone else will change that fact.  Rather than respond in a sensible manner Stark resorts to snide comments which betray his disdain for anyone who dares express an opinion which conflicts with his personal agenda.  If the man weren&#039;t so dangerous in the position he&#039;s in he would be relegated to the status of innocuous clown and disregarded completely.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;...but today the government operates under rules and laws that control everybody.&quot;  The problem is that the government is not doing their duty to properly secure our borders.

I live in CD13, and I find Pete Stark&#039;s comments to be disrespectful and out of touch.  As the son of two LEGAL immigrants, I understand the value that an immigrant population can bring to the United States.  But the key is that Pete Stark is making excuses for ILLEGAL immigrants who skirt the law and jump to the head of the line, ahead of all of the other people who are going through the proper channels to become U.S. citizens.  That is unforgivable.

&quot;We’re getting hundreds of calls, none of them from the district I might add...&quot;  FYI, as a resident in CD13, I have called Pete Stark&#039;s office to voice my dissatisfaction with his comments.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am from District 13, and I attended the meeting with of which you speak.

I found myself feeling sorry for the feeble, old man presenting himself as Pete Stark.  He seemed confused when he was asked to address any issue that didn&#039;t involve tax and spend solutions.  However, his comments on the security of the US border were dismissive, disrespectful, uninformed and stupid.

Alas, this &quot;representative&quot; of California District 13 lives, with his family, near Washington, D.C.  I am not represented....]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have been attending Pete Stark Townhall meetings for years. I know when Steve Kemp started attending w/, he was the only one w/ a camera attached to him. I was also there at this particular Town Hall, as were others from the Fremont Tea Party Patriots. protrayed in Steve&#039;s Video.

This is typical Pete and his &quot;base&quot; loves it. His &quot;base&quot; will not, and does not see anything wrong w/ Pete&#039;s attitude. When Pete &quot;bad mouthed&quot; Pres Bush with comments about Bush sending kids to war to get their &quot;heads blown off&quot;, the Dems made Pete make a Public Apology. But at the next Town Hall, his &quot;base&quot; applauded it...that is why Pete continues to do what he does. BTW, his &quot;base&quot; votes....and does it regularly. About half of the other Dems or DTS&#039;s don&#039;t like Pete..but they gave up voting decades ago. Little do they know, they can defeat Pete...if they VOTE and combine it w/ the Rep Candidate. Unfortunately this time, the Rep Candidate is just as bad...(but that is another story). The Fremont Tea Party backed Conservative Luis Garcia in the Primaries...who unfortunately lost...not for lack of Campaigning (unlike Forest Baker...who did very little.)

Also, unfortunately, a third Party Candidate is also trying to get on the Ballot...that will only split the Conservative Vote..and Pete will win AGAIN...END OF STORY.


This video will NOT sway Pete&#039;s backers away from Pete, but will only inspire them to re-elect him. His opponents will find it revolting..let&#039;s see if it is enough for them to do something about it in 2012..

		<description><![CDATA[1. A LOT of CD-13 constituents have called - including me.  We get a rude, supercilious aide who doesn&#039;t want to hear our concerns.  The whole office is full of mini-me Stark wannabes.

2. Josh, you left a lot of Stark&#039;s claims without a response or challenge from Kemp or the Minutemen, that&#039;s why it feels unbalanced.

3. This has NOTHING to do with race, ethnicity, or national origin - look at the townhall attendees.  Not very &quot;white&quot; at all.  This has everything to do with the rule of law.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#039;t live in that District, but this is not the first time he couldn&#039;t handle himself as a professional at a Townhall.  BTW - the video shows other immigrants, so that doesn&#039;t seem to jive with his comment on people being afraid of those with accents.  I&#039;ve never heard the Minutemen shooting anyone, so why say it and infurate them?  If my congressman acted this way, I&#039;d be on the phone right away and a follow-up letter from my family, friends and neighbors.]]></description>
