This socialist minded President we have in the White House thinks that we should spend $1.2 Billion on the United Nations to finance the contruction of a new headquarters building for the UN and a measly $10 million to protect our borders!

LOL! You crack me up. The $10 million is just a small part of the huge amounts spent on border protection.

As far as the UN? It isn't a gift.

The UN isn't real keen on the Bush plan.

Your comparisons might seem logical if mistakenly taken at face value. In reality they are nonsensical.

As far as Bush not being a Patriot? I'd point out to you that because of what he has done to the Islamic wackos he and his family will never be safe. Not ever. These nutcases will be out to kill him and his wife and his family forever! Knowing that Bush, knowing that his wife Laura would always be a target, he still did what he did after 9/11. I submit he is much more of a Patriot than you will ever be.

Your numbers are way out of date. The very last thing Bush wants to do is close the border with Mexico.

The current DHS budget reduces the BP's budget from last year by 18 million. That reduction is coming out of personnel. There will be no new hires this year.

Let’s see. The front door is still easy to exploit and the few agents that are being added to the back door won’t affect a thing.
The fact is; if measured in percentages, we are only about 10% more secure now then before 9/11. Bush could do a lot more, but refuses to.

Everything done on the Mexican border is smoke and mirrors. This is a story that I heard from a friend of mine in Seattle. This friend is a DEA agent. About 6 months ago, his team busted up a major drug operation. One of the main suspects was an illegal alien from Mexico. Said suspect only received 4 months of jail time. When he was deported to Mexico, my friend set up surveillance on the home he was operating out of in Seattle. He wanted to see how long it would take for this guy to get back in the US. Three days is all it took for this deported felon to get from Mexico to Seattle. Of course he was again arrested and is in jail for “Reentry after Depot”. When my friend questioned him about getting back in, they guy says it easy. The key is to come alone, not in a group. The BP goes after the big groups not the individual. They don’t have the manpower.

I relayed this to my coworkers, who used to be BP agents and they confirmed the truth. When the sensors go off and it’s only one person, they will not respond unless there is no other activity, which is very rare. The big groups get you big stats, small groups get you small stats. It’s all about stats.

Sorry tempest, when we still have over 5,000 + illegal aliens sneaking in each day, we are not secure. Bush could do a lot to remedy this, but since it would affect his big business supporters, he won’t.

Why is he even supporting an anti-American, anti-freedom, anti sovereignty outfit like the UN?

I served three tours in Nam while he stayed in the States. End of discussion on whether I'm a patriot.

Why have this message posted to me? It has nothing to do with what I posted. I can only think that it was a mistake.
