Michelle Malkin » Special delivery for Michael Chertoff
The comment came after Tancredo attempted to send a basket of lettuce, apples and other produce to Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff. Tancredo said he wanted to protest Chertoff’s recent comment to reporters that crops are rotting in the fields because immigration agents are arresting workers.
Tancredo, told of Salazar’s comment, lobbed his own verbal bomb.
“It may be a political stunt,” Tancredo said of the basket delivery, “but his own comment about it is political idiocy.”
The Department of Homeland Security refused to accept the basket, citing security concerns.
Apparently the head of lettuce was the most intelligent head in the entire DHS, and so they refused it entry. Which isn’t surprising, given who does the appointing over there.
