"By the way, illegals are being apprehended and sent back on a daily basis, GWB has sent 6000 NG to help on the border, the number of BP has doubled, catch and release has been ended, and 700 more miles of fence are on the way. "

We'll see if any of the above is true. How many time did we hear "catch and release is ended"? Several over the years. That turned out to not be particularly true. The President has to be dragged kicking and screaming to enforce the laws on our border. It's sad you think our demand that those laws be enforced (the law is the law, isn't that what you said?) is part of some "agenda".

Catch and release hasn't ended. The Border Patrol hasn't doubled and as far as I know there still isn't any funding for the fence. However, there are some good changes that I have seen in rough draft come out of DHS.

Matter of priorities. I believe the President was preoccupied with apprehending al-queda cells. I have yet to see a Mexican suicide bomber.
