The 9/11 attack changed all that. It was either sit and wait to be attacked again or go on the offensive.

Call me crazy, but shouldn't securing our borders have fit in there somewhere? Kind of pointless to fight a war against a enemy with no uniforms and no nation while still allowing anyone and everyone to pour across our borders virtually unchecked. I'm just saying...

No, I agree completely! As I said, I have some problems with Pres. Bush. Border security and no amnesty for illegal aliens is one of them. But, again, we all knew that Bush had a soft spot in his heart(head?) for illegals in the country.

Even though Bush was on the wrong side of the issue, we still managed to stop the amnesty bill last year. And Duncan Hunter managed to get his border fence bill passed and signed into law by Pres. Bush. We do have successes to point to in this area but a whole lot more needs to be done.
