Do they really think that they can "Alinsky" Trump or Cruz at this late date?

I got some time on my hands now that I am semi retired. Ran excavators and bulldozers and such for years. Gimme a machine and the fuel, and I will show you just how fast to put a foundation in.

Wasn’t the Great wall authorized in 2006? With progress like that I would not hold my breath for a wall to show up anytime in my life time.

Congress have proven themselves to be useless.

This guy used to be on PJ Media, calling people all kinds of names because of different views on illegal immigration.

So this is where he ended up. And I still refuse to read his stuff.

If walls don’t work why did ancient China, modern Israel and many other countries use them?

Well, there is good news and there is bad news.

The good news is that Congress is going to pass veto-proof legislation that will guarantee building an impenetrable border fence.

The bad news is that it will be on the Canadian Border.

More “concern” from La Raza Reuben Navarette.

Anything short of mass deportation leaves California firmly in the grip of the 3rd World Left.

As long as California remains a stronghold for Obama Democrats and GOP amnesty pushers you’re in line to lose your neighborhood, your town, your State.

Better decide what you want your future to be.

If walls and fences don’t work then why is there one around the White House?

They can make fun of the fence all they want. As long as they build it.

Anyway, its not 1900 miles, its maybe 700 miles. I don’t think anyone is talking about fencing the Rio Grande except people who want to defeat the fence. You build a double or triple fence from El Paso to San Diego. It may not stop all border crossings but it will put a pretty good dent in them.

Tunnels? Sure, go for it.

Yes they do.

The hit pieces are everywhere.

‘Well, this will put him in HIS place!’ thinks the author triumphantly hitting the send button to post his screed.

How will we pay for it? Not exactly difficult - the savings alone from social programs that aren't being abused by illegals would likely more than cover the cost of the entire wall the first year.

But if there's one place where a little bit of truth squeaks out, it is when they say we carry a little stick. ‘Any property or money gained as part of a criminal conspiracy, including failing to properly enter the country, working without a valid permit, etc, is subject to confiscation. Any property rented to an illegal alien may be subject to liens. Any business property which employs illegals may be subject to liens.

These rules go into effect on December 31st, 2016. Any property may sold or removed before this date, regardless of the present legality of the transaction due to illegal presence in the country or illegal employment so long as the illegal alien has removed himself from the United States by December 31st, 2016. Any employer may shed any legal liability for illegal employment by declaring so by December 31st, 2016, and by this date no longer employ any illegal aliens. Any property owner may shed legal liability under this act so long as they no longer rent or accommodate an illegal alien by December 31st, 2016 and declare those they have housed.’

“Wasn’t the Great wall authorized in 2006?”

Sure. And Congress funded it too.

But George Amnesty Bush couldn’t figure out how to get it built.

Somehow I think Trump the non-conservative won’t have the same problem if he gets the chance.

Yes. I remember a radio interview with the head of Homeland Security. They asked him why the fence wasn't built. He said, there is no money. They reminded him, the money was included in the bill authorizing the fence. He replied, I kid you not, "but the bill didn't require us to spend the money on the fence".

He acts like we want ONLY the wall and nothing else. Obviously we want the deportations and employer crackdowns too.

If it takes illegal labor to build the wall, fine, as long as they stand on the Mexican side.

Let’s send the liberals out of here with the mexicans. They act like that would be happy with that.
