"I am totally disgusted at his refusal to control our borders."

We stopped over one million people from entering the country illegally in 2002.

I call that control.

I guess by your logic, then our police must be refusing to enforce the law, because there are crimes still being committed daily.

Call it what you want but where I live in Texas we've seen a marked increase in illegal immigration over the last three years and along with it increases in crime, hospitals overwhelmed and extra taxes to pay for all their "needs". Sorry, many out here do not have one ounce of compassion for them.

The Fred Kay File
From the Tucson Citizen,12/30/2003

" Because of tighter security along the border, Tucson's federal court has one of the highest prosecution rates in the nation for illegal immigrants and drug smugglers." What ??? How can this be,as President Bush has done nothing to control the borders !!

Nineteen men and one woman filed into a federal courtroom in shackles earlier this month, hoping their admissions of guilt would bring leniency so - as many admitted - they could commit their crimes again. These 20 people were among 2,600 accused of illegal entry into the United States who were represented in fiscal 2003 by a team of 13 immigration attorneys in Tucson's federal Public Defender's Office, said Fred Kay, the lead defense attorney in the office.

Hundreds of additional cases were parceled out to contract attorneys.

With prosecutions of illegal entry at an all-time high because of stepped up enforcement along the international border, the federal court in Tucson is among the busiest in the country, Kay said."

Prosecutions at an all time high .Hmmm...

Luis,

We didn't stop anybody. We turned them loose to try again, until they made it north.
