I absolutely agree. We need troops on OUR border, not Bosnia's or Kosovo's border. Not Germany's border. OUR border. And every time we go code Orange is just another unpleasant reminder that terrorists have unfettered access to our interior just by crossing through Cochise County, Arizona.
Do you hear that terrorists?! Nobody will stop you if you're careful and you cross at Cochise County, Arizona. You can waltz right onto a sensitive military installation - Ft. Huachuca, Arizona - and do whatever you want. At least 150 intruders did just that the weekend after we invaded Iraq. There's no one watching, so you terrorists have at it. And once you cross the border, it is a simple car/van/truck ride up to the Phoenix area. That Palo Verde Nuclear plant is a juicy target, don't you think? Take that out in a manner that spreads radiation and you'll wipe out the entire Phoenix metropolitan area. And you only have to travel 4 hours from the wide open border. Just fly into Sonora, Mexico from Brazil or Argentina like we've seen so many others do (we've found their plane tickets in their abandoned backpacks). Then, take a quick taxi or bus ride to the Mexican border with Cochise County. Then just cross there and meet your ride on Highway 92 near Palominas, AZ. Head North and have at it. Bush doesn't seem to care. DHS doesn't seem to care. The U.S. Department of Defense doesn't seem to care. Congress doesn't seem to care - especially our RINO Congressman Jim Kolbe. Why should anyone else care!? Go for it, terrorists! Your golden opportunity has been laying wide open for decades and nothing changed after 9/11. < /sarcasm >
Actually, the ACLU and other Leftists would be there to hand out picnic lunches and AAA road maps.
