DHS Warns "Virtual" Fence Will Cost More "Real" Money "The Bush administration's proposal to secure the nation's borders with a LET THE MINUTEMAN PROJECT BUILD THE ENTIRE FENCE They have the fence management experience, a great concept and a $/foot cost that makes normal government "Requests for Proposals" from globalist buffoon companies with H-1B workers look like highway robberry! They use all American workers [a good many volunteers actually] too. If we don't hire The Minuteman Project to finish the whole thing, we've been raked. Its also a perfect way to say "thank you" to a peaceful group in America that really cares about this country. You got a better idea? Posted by: Softwarengineer on November 17, 2006 12:04 PMTo my friends who want this fence, I'm sorry to differ, but really, what good will it do? For the price of a coyote, you can fly to Canada and walk in from there. I really wish we 'restrictionists' could get together and petition for local police to be charged with workplace enforcement and local governments to levy heave fines on those who profit illegally. If we ever get our country into order again, your're not going to want a fence because illegals will be walking back to Mexico. Posted by: Bill Dexter on November 17, 2006 12:25 PMI AGREE BILL Employer enforcement is 99.999999999999999% of the illegal alien problem; its just that Mexico and the our American Benedict Arnold amnesty supporters hates the fence so much, build it just to totally infuriate them. Posted by: Softwarengineer on November 17, 2006 01:09 PMSo is enforcement for employers going to stop the drug movement and the terrorist. Noooooo! A fence will not stop everything but it will decrease the number and make it harder and easier for the border control to do their job. However a virtual fence is not the way. Anyone who has worked for the government knows that contracts always come in over they should almost every time. Posted by: Beckyal on November 17, 2006 01:19 PMWhy don't they apply the virtual fence to school yards, Just more lies from the useless boosh administration... Virtual fence, where`s the real fence we were promised... Lies, Lies, Lies! Posted by: American Me on November 17, 2006 02:40 PMHopefully the fence will force more of these vermin into the desert where mother nature can take care of them, instead of us poor over burdened taxpayers. Works like hell for me! Oh, Yes, riddle me this: IF a virtual fence is good enough for the border, WHY is it not good enough for the White House and Capitol Hill? Hmmmmmhmmmmmm? Posted by: Macman on November 17, 2006 04:22 PMSimply another attempt to wriggle out of ever taking any responsibility...why do you think they released this now? That's right, so the newly democratic controlled Congress can "reign in " spending...they will cut it soon enough in their efforts to promote amnesty. But don't you see why a physical barrier is necessary? It's not the cure all, end all, but it gives our border patrol one leg up...they can target areas of heavier activity, while the fencing deters many and forces others to go elsewhere. NO, a fence is not the only means of defense. We have to demand survellience, sensors (even those that can detect underground activity), we need added patrol agents, and yes, we especially need interior enforcement...take away the carrots and the horses go elsewhere to eat... Bill, The interesting thing about coming into this country from our northern border is that illegals would be coming through states, such as the one I grew up in. The people don't hestitate to shoot and ask questions later. They don't concern themselves with political correctness and won't stand for riff raff being allowed to remain in their communities. There is a lot of isolated land, wild animals, who wouldn't hestitate to kill someone for a good meal and people disappear all the time. No one cares to look for them either. If someone knows something, they won't tell either. Yes, people in the northern states live an different existence than the politically correct people, who delude themselves into believing we need to sell our nation to the lowest bidders. There's a lot of gun totting homeowners, which is always a deterrent. My state has had a lot of illegals peddling meth and so people are extremely intolerant because they are being forced to pay for jail time. They are also very conservative people, very down to earth and want their states to remain as they are. Posted by: jaded on November 17, 2006 05:09 PMLET THE GAMES BEGIN. The real fence will never be built, even though it`s law. We have immigration laws also, but there not enforced so the fence won`t be either. It`s just business as usual, for our useless treasonous government. Posted by: Independent Voter on November 17, 2006 05:18 PMI don't care what it costs anymore. It's still cheaper and less dangerous than illegal immigration. Our governement spends ridiculous amounts of taxpayer money on less important and downright frivolous stuff, so they can put up a fence the people want! Posted by: Born American on November 18, 2006 11:56 AMDHS warns virtual fence will cost "real" money." Do you know what will cost "real" money. What will cost "real" money is allowing all of Mexico to be incorporated into the United States of America. Now 'that' will cost "real" money. An enormous amount, in fact. The title of the article should really read, "U.S. Governments Plan to Make the American Taxpayer Poor." Posted by: Bobby on November 19, 2006 04:41 PMVirtual fence project in Texas: www.texasborderwatch.com You have to join and they send you a password. I've only watched tonight and it's rather difficult viewing it without knowing what it looks like in the daylight. I did see a skunk going through a fence gate, though. Posted by: Faye on November 20, 2006 02:27 AMA fence is not the total answer, but it wouldn't hurt, IMO. We've seen it work in the San Diego area. The Canadian border needs to be addressed, too, as well as all kinds of internal enforcement, but I am sick of people thinking they can have easy access to this country and thumbing their noses at us. Imagine, just walking into another country, living and working there, and taking advantage of everything they have. Put up the fence, please, Posted by: Born American on November 20, 2006 12:50 PMI visit friends on the Canadian border in New Hampshire. Vans with blackened windows go up and down the roads all the time. This used to be an 'everyone knows everyone' kind of place. As the last paper mills are closing and finding real work is treated like finding treasure, the Federal government has decided that they need Somalian and Pakistani 'refugees'. This way, seeing foreigners is no longer tantamount with seeing illegal aliens coming in from Canada. Pretty clever, these globalist lackeys in our 'government'. Posted by: Bill Dexter on November 20, 2006 02:17 PM If we put a stiff tax on remitances, we would pay for a REAL wall in a very short time. The cost of a wall anyway would be a small fraction of the Iraq occupation. A physical barrier would reduce the flow of illegals and drugs into our country. Employer fines will only help a little because about half of the illegals get paid cash and many are not working at all. IMPEACH BUSH Posted by: mary on November 20, 2006 11:36 PMCertainly Mary, impeach him and every single politician that thinks disrespecting Americans is a national pastime. Posted by: Bobby on November 21, 2006 06:01 PMIllegal Alien Supporters Prepare for New Amnesty Push "With the Democrats set to take control of Congress next year, pro-immigrant THESE BUFFOONS STILL DON'T GET IT? I'll repeat Lou Dobb's question to any amnesty supporter that was squished like an ant with a Army boot, when asked, "who decides the fate of illegal aliens, them or We the People [legal citizens]"? You amnesty buffoons better ask us legal citizen voters what We want and stop being corporate brainless puppets destroying our country, or you're all "out of here" come 2008, and you know it too. Posted by: Softwarengineer on November 17, 2006 11:55 AMGood Softwareengineer Sorry guys, anyone who didn't know that Bush and other illegal supports were not going to use the Republican lost as a means of securing amnesty wasn't thinking about the good of country when they cast their vote(s). Bush did everything he could to get the Republicans out of office so he could get amnesty. Posted by: Beckyal on November 17, 2006 01:25 PM12 MILLION ...B.S. TURN THE DIGITS AROUND ..21 MILLION AND COUNTING. I think we need to solve this problem with a simple constitutional amendment. Just make it a part of the Constitution the ILLEGAL ALIENS and their US born babies are Mexican or Canadian. These "visitors" from a bordering country should be in a special catagory... based on the IRRIDENTISM RISK, that is inate, in coming from an ajoining but seperate nation. They should never vote, or their children vote, until they go throught the waiting period like any regular immigrant. No AMNESTY, ever!...Just tolerence like so many " JOB HOOKERS". If they want to enter legally, they can go home to apply and wait. Staying here, they will always be subject to the risk of arrest and swift deportation. It wont matter if there are 200 Software they`ll never get it... They can rant all they want, if amnesty is ever granted it would be political suicide... I wonder if this time, we`ll see the racist signs, and the upside down and burning of the American flag in the streets... No other country in the world would tolerate this crap! Posted by: American Me on November 17, 2006 02:29 PMJoeFight, thanks for weighing your thoughts here. Many people here recently said they would march with Choose Black America, FYI. If an amnesty were to pass, there would still be the issue of having so much black worker job displacement vis-a-vis Hispanics; I consider this Title VII discrimination, but so far the civil rights community has not stepped up. It's really a national disgrace ... after more than two centuries of tremendous struggle, the American black community was finding entry into the middle class and more, but now this. Posted by: FCannon on November 17, 2006 07:22 PMRead about who, exactly, this guy, Armando Navarro, actually is: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=Armando+Navarro&btnG=Google+Search -- Aztlan-promoting revolutionary communist, all around bad man intent upon his own ethnic supremacy. Posted by: -S- on November 18, 2006 07:59 AMThe illegal alien crowd are such lowlives. There is nothing they won't do and no level low enough for them to stoop to get a free ride. They're a sickening bunch of losers, for sure. I agree with you 100%, Beckyal. Posted by: Bobby on November 19, 2006 04:43 PM I wonder why Democrats support a plan that will undermine our working poor, degrade our environment and tear apart our social fabric. They claim to represent the middle class and care about the environment. What a joke!!! I've read all of the comments on this post, and so many of them are supported by documented facts, and all that one can conclude from them, is a common message. That would be, and forgive me for stating the obvious, illegal immigration is a crime, and illegal aliens, and their supporters---are criminals. Posted by: Bobby on November 20, 2006 04:57 PM-S-, allow me to interject that Professor traitor Navarro, while continuing his American hating activities, then gets rewarded for his fifth columnist activities, by Americans being forced to pay him a nice salary. Must be nice tromping around the university, arrogantly, teaching a few subversive classes and then plotting in his free time, on how to overthrow the U.S. government. Is this country losing it, or what?? Posted by: Bobby on November 20, 2006 06:14 PM The actions of our Government are the best barometer of their plans and intentions for this country and its future. We can see through these actions that the intent is not at all in the best interests of the American People and the Country we call home. I just heard Alex Jones interview Congressman Ron Paul on Infowars.com The subject of open borders, amnesty NAU etc was the center of the conversation. Infowars loops its show every 3 hours, check it out. Ron Paul is a great American who should be our President. 90% if the rest belong in jail or exiled to Mexico. Well, McCain: GOP Was Punished for Not Being Enough Like Me, and Supporting Amnesty "Senator John McCain said Thursday that Republicans had lost the midterm LOL !!! I wouldn't vote for this RINO if he was the candidate on the ballot! He has sold out his constituency and is one of the biggest amnesty supporters on the hill! Hey Johnny, get through all those $50 an hour job applications yet? Posted by: takn on November 17, 2006 11:29 AMI didn't vote for Kennedy because he supported amnesty for illegal aliens along with John McClown. He's only in it for the Hispanic vote in 2008. THANKS FOR SELLING OUT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. Posted by: John M. from Mass. on November 17, 2006 12:07 PMAND GORE LOST THE ELECTION BECAUSE THE DEMOCRATS ABANDONNED THE ENVIRONMENTAL CAUSE IN FAVOR OF LATINO OVERPOPULATION The Peanuts cartoon was discontinued because we got sick of the football kick miss by Charlie Brown being used too much. What are these buffoons smoking? Posted by: Softwarengineer on November 17, 2006 12:09 PMNot Being Enough Like Me Frightening how true that statement rings In other news, a neoCon idol died yesterday, Anyway, if you are sitting there in your chair mourning, here is his obituary; (read it and weep) I don't like McCain personnally, he is a fraud. I cannot understand why the people from Az keep supporting and electing him. As far as I can tell he is one of the most hated men in Az but somehow he keeps getting re-elected. What he has never answered is how can you support smaller government but allow 12-20M illegal amnesty. Providing for them only allows for a bigger government and more federal spending unless of course they make the states and local government pay for it. He was been asked this several times and refuses to answer. Posted by: Beckyal on November 17, 2006 01:32 PMMcCain is right. This is the truth. It may hurt a few, but sometimes truth does that, it just hurts. Before I will Vote for Traitor John McCain I will Write in the Name of ADOLPH HITLER! Like I said before, it was a sad day in American History when the North Vietnamese drug his sorry a$$ out of that lake the day he got shot down! Posted by: Macman on November 17, 2006 01:38 PMBE MORE LIKE MCCAIN... HE MEANS BE A RINO TRAITOR!... HE`S WHAT THE GOP DOESN`T NEED. Posted by: American Me on November 17, 2006 02:14 PMI wish this disgusting, egotistical male would just shut up. He is worthless, and no one cares about his "ideas". I would like him to retire and take Kennedy, Pelosi, Hillary, Dean and a few other baffoons with him. Let them all live along the border and "enjoy" life with illegals. DC politicans need to be forced to spend one month for every year they have been in political office cleaning up the garbage along the border. Maybe when they see all the used needles and other garbage, they might get a clue regarding how we need to control who comes into our country. Unless, they are all on drugs and more concerned about staying high than maintaining the safety and security of our nation. Posted by: jaded on November 17, 2006 05:02 PMAgain, this clown mouths off. I would vote for Donald Duck and friends, anyone , anyone, before I voted for, (you won't pick lettuce for 50$ an hour) McCain, even for dogcatcher. This is just my opinion, but it will be so awfully amusing to see how many MORONS in this country vote for that fool for president. In fact, in my opinion, based on his performance in the last 3 or so years, he should be heckeled and laughed at-----wherever he appears, in The Unitied States. That Americans put up with bozos like him is as mindboggling as why they put up with Bush and the traitorous Senators, that sell them out everyday. Posted by: Bobby on November 17, 2006 06:21 PMMcKain save your money. Speaking of which, Komrad Bush how much taxpayer money are you giving North Vietnam? Posted by: Fedup on November 17, 2006 07:40 PMThe man is loathed by me and many others. His straddling every line he crosses makes me ill. What does he stand for? Does anyone know? The biggest hypocrite out there save for Hillary Clinton. Isn't it ironic that these two frauds wil be offered up to the American people as their saviors in the next election. Just keeps on proving the stpidity of the average person! Posted by: mary on November 17, 2006 10:41 PMMcCain... is this the best they have to run? Guilliani is no joy either. I will not vote for ANYONE who does not support LAW ENFORCEMENT (employers, illegals, dope, criminals, etc..), Securing our PORTS and BORDERS, or granting LAW BREAKING illegals amnesty ahead of the rest of the world who would like to get to this land of opportunity. He is sickening and I really hope someone else throws their hat into the ring... Tancredo or Lou Dobbs or Pat Buchannan again, or JD Hayworth perhaps... I dont know, but if my only choice will be McCain... sorry not going to vote for you. Posted by: Greg on November 18, 2006 05:45 AMIf these statements are not illustration enough that McCain is OUT OF TOUCH WITH REALITY, nothing can be. McCain has it all.wrong.here -- not that about 90% of readers/listeners have not noticed yet -- and he is either sincerely efforting to mislead people, or he's sincerely misleding himself, or, probably, both. The GOP "lost" because the GOP Senate (with the help and encouragement of the White House and McCain's cheerleading of both) refused to respect the efforts by the GOP House. The GOP Senate and the Bush White House are responsible for "losing" the '06 elections, AND, if we let them continue to run amuk, they'll make sure the GOP again loses in '08, what with Bush's Martinez pick. But, McCain...he could not be any more wrong with these opinions of is than he is in ambling along with Ted Kennedy and the Bush White House toward amnesty for illegal aliens. McCain doesn't seem to grasp the half of it, but he is right about amnesty. Any candidate who betrays American citizens doesn't deserve to be in office. Kindly consider your run for President, Mr. McCain. America doesn't need your kind. Posted by: Born American on November 18, 2006 09:27 AMMcCain is doing to many drugs, that's why his buddy is another one without brain cells, KENNEDY, what a twosome. Dumb and Dumber. Posted by: HELEN on November 19, 2006 10:29 PMMcCain has obviously lost it. He needs to be hauled away in a straight jacket. Some of these idiots just don't listen. The Reps didn't lose on the immigration issue, they lost on many other issues. Posted by: Sippy on November 20, 2006 12:34 PMbush, kennedy, clinton, mccain are all arrogant, pig-headed, members of the AMNESTY party. They, and their illegal alien, corporatist adherents are the true Axis of Evil. Ignore the label republican or democrat, it has nothing to do with us anymore. Irrelevant. Forget the two parties, as the issue has galvanized Americans across the board, regardless of "party". No amount of "spin" is changing anyones mind. The evil is clear and out in the open. Amnesty vs. NO AMNESTY. Only issue. Very few republican leaders are conservative and not all democrats are socialists. True Americans vs. globalist trash. mccain is the latter, just as stubborn and just as deaf as bush, when it comes to listening to the citizens. Posted by: Jeebie on November 20, 2006 12:41 PMI believe that McCain would be more dangerous than Bush if he would be elected to our highest office. He has the ability to fool 50% of the GOP base. That scares me because he is still the front runner for the 08 election. This NeoCon must be exposed! Posted by: Fornax2 on November 20, 2006 01:07 PMLike Bush just another TRAITOR! Posted by: Critter on November 21, 2006 08:17 AMTancredo for President! Once Tancredo declares himself (and I pray he does!), we will see McCain fall to the wayside! It is my personal prayer that God give Tancredo the strength to do this because it certainly won't be "pretty"--it will be tough, hateful, even dangerous. Again, though, I predict that once we see that we have a choice of such high caliber as Tancredo, we will throw massive support his way although the political system may well refuse to accept him. If the Republican party refuses to nominate him, he should run as an independent. He would win. Posted by: J on November 21, 2006 02:56 PMThe only thing "Weasel" McCain will give this country if he runs for president is the election of Hillary The Amnesty Fallacy: 2006 Election Returns "Little did voters know it, but last week they were delivering a mandate Related: Only Mass Amnesty and Kowtowing Can Save the Republican Party by Tamar Jacoby We're screwed...LOL Actually, it makes our fight that much harder and we have to step up to the plate and make those demands that will stop this rollercoaster... Posted by: takn on November 17, 2006 11:13 AMIT WAS AN OBVIOUS POLITICAL SETUP Of course the Iraq war discontent played hard in the electing the least ugly of the two party sisters to date. It was a setup by Clinton, Gore, Bush and Cheney to make the RNC and DNC platforms a cacaphony of love/hate for the voters; even splitting the RNC into lawless amnesty and legal citizen law abiding factions. They agreed on this upside down way to suck campaign contributions from devil companies, and push their amnesty cheap labor, yet made Iraq the horrible wart on the chin, that made us pick the other ugly sister instead. God help us. I think we need a $5 maximum per contribution entity for all American candidates. That's the only way we'll end this charade and ugly sister contest. Posted by: Softwarengineer on November 17, 2006 11:41 AMSadly, I dont doubt you a bit, Sftware Eng. IT IS A FACT: THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS ROADKILL BOOSH'S MINDLESS PUSH FOR AMNESTY HAS SPLIT THE GOP INTO TWO CAMPS, ONE LUKEWARM ONLY,FOR AMNESTY, AND THE OTHER RAGINGLY MAD AT THE VERY IDEA OF AMNESTY. IF PUSHED MUCH FURTHER,SOME OF THE ANTI-AMNESTY FORMER REPUBLICANS MAY FINALLY TAKE TO THE STREETS IN MASS DEMONSTRATIONS. BOOSH IS HATED, LITTERALLY, PUT ON A SHORT LIST WITH THE LIKES OF OSAMA BIN LADEN, HITLER, and STALIN. THESE MILLIONS, IF GIVEN A VOTE IN THE MATTER WOULD CHEER HIS ARREST FOR HIGH TREASON. NEVER, IN Nominating Mel Martinez to chair the RNC is seen as a gross affront to at least half of the people who voted him into office. They now fixate on all he does,like a cuckold would toward a cheating spouse. This attitude toward Boosh is at a boiling point, with tens of millions of "former Republicans". Boosh only leads a pathetic "RUMP PARTY" now, who don't especially like him either, but they haven't caught the bug yet.By pushing AMNESTY for the 20+ million, the 20 million "Republican" voters, disaffected with BOOSH, will pray for a constitutional convention, a treason trial, or debilitating ill health for the President. Prayer is still legal under the first ammendment but surely at risk , if BOOSH, in his political "madness", pushes further. What a pathetic end to the great story of a free, and united America!
Bush was going to make changes in IRAQ in July until he found out that the Republicans would lose the election if he did nothing. Just look at he comments he made. If anyone doesn't believe that this man is working for Mexico instead of legal citizens of the US, they are crazy. His goal in becoming president was to give the illegals citizenship. Posted by: Beckyal on November 17, 2006 01:37 PMThat is complete B.S.!... Illegal immigration was not the issue in voting, it was Iraq, boosh and scandals... The pro-illegal crowd, and the left wing media just don`t get it, put all the spin on it you want, it will still be lies... Don`t listen too a word that loonie neocon Jacoby says, her spin is just as bad as the rest of them. When you filter through all the lies and agendas, we know the real truth here. Posted by: American Me on November 17, 2006 01:55 PMHow can anyone with half a mind read that into the election results? The clearest indication of the public's sentiment toward illegal immigration were all the polls conducted before the election. 80% of Americans want less or the same level of immigration. The vast majority wants our borders sealed, protected and enforced. At least with the polls, people had the opportunity to express their feelings DIRECTLY on the issue. These open border advocates don't have the moral or legal ground to stand on. They know it and that is why they resort to saying ridiculous things like "no human is illegal", "we are a nation of immigrants" and now we have the all new "the election results mean the public wants amnesty now". Posted by: VOR on November 17, 2006 06:09 PMBy the way, for all you lovers of illegality in Arizona, your queen bee, Janet Napolitano, is in Mexico. Right after reelection. Enjoy the increased lawlessness because of your, as Mr. Spock would say illogic. The expression for you clowns is, "Stupid is as stupid does." Posted by: Bobby on November 18, 2006 04:19 AMI have suspected from the onset, that the "War in Iraq" and the United States' participation was a distraction. It has been obvious for most of us Southern Californians of Conservative Mindset, that the "Terrorists" were not just "Middle Eastern Men" as so commonly asserted. The Gangs from both Mexico and Central America have brought the Drug Trade, as well as Violence, at at level previously unheard of, north of the border. This Domestic Terriorism is far more of a threat to the United States that the Overseas Variety. However, the Corporate World as well as many in OUR Governmnent are benefiting from these Crimminal Activities. The Transport of Mexican Nationals into this Country is BIG business. They arrive by air and sea with "bogus papers", not in the back of a Semi Truck Trailer or van as is so often depicited on the evening news. These people become the "Masses" that can now be controlled (a Socialist/Globalist Policy) with Amnesty as the Carrot. The "War" should be against Mexico for aiding and abetting the Crimminals. My spouse and I have only discussed this with other "Right Wing Conservatives" ( We are Independent Voters neither Libertarian or Republican) as we did not want to be dismissed as "Right Wing Nutcases". However, because we can see what is happening , we are prepared and ready to defend our freedom and soverignty. The Left Wing Forces in the House and Senate are working quietly on an attack on the Second Amendment. The Crimminals have the Firearms, taking the Citizens Firearms will leave us defenseless (which is what the Left leaning Democrats AKA Socialists want). When Society is is disarray the Communists and Socialists who now use the term "Globalists" then take over. The Rich and Powerful will retain their place while the rest of us lose everything. This IS the Agenda of President Bush and his Colleagues(including Left Wing Democrats and Globalist Republicans). Visit www.spp.gov for Background. Sounds a bit like the novel "1984", however, this is NOT fiction. Those who care about the United States of America, no matter where their Birthplace , will need to band together. Even with OUR "issues" , the United States of America is still the only place on Earth that individuals can truly pursue life , liberty and prosperity on their own terms. Posted by: Braveheart Offspring on November 18, 2006 03:08 PMI sincerely hope that the Republican Party is now awake that we have been infiltrated at the very top and that our leader is NOT A REPUBLICAN, but Mexico's lapdog. Posted by: Faye on November 20, 2006 02:09 AMIf only one person in a thousand has become insane from the prospect of seeing this to be "the end" for the nation. That would still add up to 300,000 extremists who would think they are in the modern equivolent of the French Occupation Resistance. These "partisans", are capable of raising "holy hell", if something ignites the mix. Jorge Boosh has NO IDEA how dangerous his policies are. We hear every day about a van blowing up a crowd of job seakers in Iraq.What will change here if just one total wacko, pushed over the line into craziness by all the policy madness? What if he acts alone and takes out 35 job seekers at Home Depot? What if ten more copycats do the same within a week? That is a very real risk...and it would only need to be one triggering nut case! There are some things that that predictbly will start no end to trouble. In the last day or two, a black nutcase, has said the unsayable. He called for the murder of all white people to cure the problems of the blackman, on national television. If now some wacko kills even 50 whites anytime soon, the "nutjob" on TV will be blamed for the slaughter. I'm sure you were shocked to see that. The beating of Rodney King lead to an inserection of sorts in L.A.We are living in that kind of tinderbox. The Iraqishave made decapitation a common-place outrage.MS-13 and various Mexican cartels, have killled & decapitated the better part of 100 crime "enemies"or even honest police and journalists this year. Terrorism is all around us, on all sides and for all reasons, waiting to start. By nominating a really outspoken AMNESTISTA...Mel Martinez, to chair the RNC, The "President" is calling the 300,000 potential "wack jobs" to go nuts and act. They don't want tak'n! we been stabbed so many times,we're just bleeding out! This is a fight for survival,way past dumb Politics!

high-tech 'virtual fence' is likely to cost far more than the $2 billion that industry analysts initially estimated, possibly up to $30 billion, a government watchdog agency warned yesterday. According to the Homeland Security Department inspector general, the ambitious plan to deploy sensors, cameras and other surveillance technology along 6,000 miles of the borders with Canada and Mexico runs the risk of runaway costs because of poorly defined objectives and a vastly overstretched contracting staff at the department," the Washington Post reported. "Members of a House homeland security oversight panel stressed yesterday how the government's poor track record on border enforcement undermined their confidence. A much smaller attempt in the 1990s to deploy remote-sensing technology on the border 'started as a $2 million program and turned into a quarter-billion-dollar disaster,' said Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Ala.), becoming 'a poster child of government waste and mismanagement.'"
groups are meeting around the nation to devise a new strategy to win amnesty for illegal immigrants, repeal of the Secure Fence Act and more visas for foreigners. Activists say they have a better chance of gaining reforms under the Democrats than under the Republicans, but believe it will still require intense political pressure and efforts to mold public opinion," the Washington Post reports. "Anti-illegal immigration groups counter that a number of Democrats will be loath to embrace legalization for the estimated 12 million illegal immigrants in the U.S. 'Many newly elected members ran on a ticket of enforcement, so it's going to be difficult for them to turn around and vote for amnesty,' said Ira Mehlman, spokesman for the Federation for American Immigration Reform, an anti-illegal immigrant group."
elections because 'we abandoned our principles' on fiscal policy and government restraint, inviting a backlash from Americans over what they saw as widespread hypocrisy . . . One of Mr. McCain’s political tasks as he considers a presidential campaign has been to reinforce his standing with conservatives. Mr. McCain has found himself at odds with conservative leaders in opposing the call for immigration measures to prevent illegal immigrants from attaining citizenship," the New York Times writes. 
for amnesty for illegal immigrants. Most of them probably thought they were voting on the Iraq War or on corruption, but elite opinion-makers have decided that they also were panting for a laxer immigration policy," says National Review editor Rich Lowry. "There’s no doubt that electing a Democratic Congress furthers the cause of an amnesty and guest-worker program by removing the main obstacle to both: the Republican majority in the House. But there is no good evidence that championing strict immigration enforcement was a loser for Republicans, or that voters elected Democrats explicitly to permit illegals already in this country to stay and to invite more of their brethren to come. Any suggestion otherwise comes from advocates of amnesty who interpret anything voters do -- now up to and including expressing their discontent with an unpopular war -- as a call for more immigration."
