Monica Ramos, the wife of one of two U.S. Border Patrol agents
imprisoned last week for wounding an escaping drug smuggler, attended
the State of the Union speech in person last night – and was sharply
critical of President Bush, calling him a hypocrite and worse.
Ramos, wife of Border Patrol agent Ignacio Ramos, attended the event as
a guest of Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif.
Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonso Compean began prison sentences last week,
of 11 and 12 years respectively, for their actions in the shooting and
wounding of a Mexican drug smuggler who was granted full immunity to
testify against them.
At the conclusion of the speech, Ramos, emotional and in tears, told WND
in an exclusive interview, that she considered President Bush's speech
compete hypocrisy.
"How could President Bush say that he wanted to secure our borders and
that he would double the size of the Border Patrol when my husband is in
prison," she asked WND. "Ignacio was trying to secure our border from
drug smugglers. And what do we get? I have to show my children their
father in prison in chains and I have to explain to them that the
president of the United States is a liar."
WND waited nearly an hour after the speech was concluded to be able to
speak with a clearly emotionally upset Monica Ramos.
"President Bush can say all he wants that the solution to border
security is new infrastructure and technology," Ramos told WND, "but as
long as my husband is in jail the American people should know that
President Bush doesn't mean a word he says."
"What I sat in the gallery and heard tonight," she said, "was a total
sell-out of the United States of America to Mexico. I heard President
Bush's message loud and clear. All the president has to offer is
electronic gadgets. Meanwhile, our borders are wide open to illegal
immigrants, criminals and drug smugglers. God help the honest men and
women of the Border Patrol who want to do their duty. It's a losing
battle – just ask my husband, he'll tell you the truth."
"The American people only need to ask me," Ramos pleaded to WND. "Tell
America that President Bush doesn't mean a word of what he says about
border security. My husband is in jail for trying to capture a drug
smuggler and President Bush wants electronics? My husband is a hero and
President Bush is a traitor as far as I'm concerned. Let him tell my
children that he wants new 'infrastructure' or 'comprehensive
immigration reform' when their dad who wore the Border Patrol badge for
years is shackled and in chains for doing his job."
Rohrabacher agreed with Ramos, emphasizing to WND that "the Bush
administration has a hidden agenda with Mexico and that agenda is to
keep our border with Mexico wide open, even to drug smugglers."
Asked what message he wanted to send by inviting Ramos' wife to attend
the speech in person, Rohrabacher explained: "I wanted to give Mrs.
Ramos the opportunity to be in the room and look President Bush right in
the face, knowing that this was the man who was destroying her life by
his decision to prosecute her husband to the hilt."
Rohrabacher described the injustice he perceived in emotional terms: "By
prosecuting these two Border Patrol agents while the drug smuggler is
given immunity, President Bush has brutalized the lives of agents Ramos
and Compean with a decision that threatens to destroy their families.
The wives and the young children of these two Border Patrol agents are
now being driven into poverty. The families have no health insurance,
they are now losing their homes, and they face a mountain of debt to
lawyers. This is a travesty of justice and a personal tragedy that
should make President Bush ashamed.
Asked if he had achieved his purpose in inviting Monica Ramos to attend
the speech, Rohrabacher told WND:
My purpose after hearing the State of the Union tonight is doubly
resolved. President Bush needs to know that we will not rest until
Border Patrol [officers] Ramos and Compean are set free.
In history there are cases where heroic people were brutalized and
sacrificed by political powers in order to achieve a certain agenda. In
this case, I think that's what's happening.
We have an administration that has a hidden agenda with Mexico such
that George Bush wants an open border, even though an open border is not
in the interests of the American people.
These Border Patrol agents are caught in the middle. They're
Americans and they know what their job is supposed to be. They are being
persecuted and prosecuted for our sake because they are getting in the
way of a power play that has yet been disclosed to the public.
It brutalizes the lives and destroys the families of men who have
been willing to sacrifice their lives for us for the last five and 10
years. This is both a tragedy and a travesty.
The continued insistence of the administration to prosecute these
Border Patrol agents and to put them in jail and to shackle them and see
the families of these men being driven into destitution – this indicates
that there has been a decision right at the top that's based on
arrogance and cruelty that I think unfortunately reflects our president.
It's a side of the president that is now coming out.
We get calls back from the underlings, the assistant congressional
liaison officers. This president doesn't return phone calls and he is
arrogant and nasty and doesn't treat people very well, not even members
of Congress.
The statement we're trying to make is that the president's policy
along the border is responsible for murders, drug dealers and terrorists
entering the country, millions of illegals. His policy has resulted in
the undermining of those law enforcement officers guarding the border,
he has totally demoralized the Border Patrol, and in the process of him
trying to send a message to the Border Patrol he's destroying the lives
of two families. … This person looking right into the face of the
president in the same room, this mother of three, her life is being
destroyed by President Bush's decision to fully prosecute to the hilt
her husband.
American citizens need to rally around these two Border Patrol
agents and should call the White House directly to register their
protest to this travesty of justice.
President Bush made no reference to the Border Patrol case in a 50-
minute speech that focused on domestic issues in the first half and
international issues in the second half.
Monica Ramos told WND she was in Washington, D.C., to attend a meeting
yesterday afternoon with concerned congressmen.
At least 70 members of the House have signed on to a resolutionordering
a congressional pardon that would toss out the convictions and
immediately free the former agents.
Monica Ramos described her first meeting with her husband in prison as
"heart breaking."
Ramos confirmed the account provided WND by her father, Joe Loya. She
acknowledged her husband is being held in solitary confinement in a 6-
by-12 foot cell, without windows. Ignacio Ramos is not being allowed any
exercise time, and he is shackled every time he leaves his cell.
"This may be for his protection from other inmates," Monica Ramos
acknowledged to WND, "but this is abusive. They are treating my husband
like the worst hardened criminal imaginable."
She said one of her three young children is so disturbed by the
imprisonment that the family has decided to seek counseling for the
child.
"My children are planning to visit their father for the first time this
Friday," she said, expressing concern. "This will be the first time they
see their dad shackled in chains, when they are used to seeing me send
him off in his badge and uniform."
The couple's youngest child is 7 years old, the others are aged 9 and
13.
"My youngest child wanted to know if we could order pizza for dad in
prison," Monic Ramos said. "No, I told him. Let's wait and have pizza
night when daddy gets home."
