Hayworth: Omission of Vital Border Security Provisions In Intel Reform 'Scandalous, Unacceptable'
WASHINGTON- U.S. Rep. J.D. Hayworth of Arizona will vote against the intelligence reform bill intended to implement recommendations of the 9-11 Commission when the measure comes before the House for final approval later today.
In announcing his intention to oppose the bill, Rep. Hayworth issued the following statement:
"I asked supporters of this bill to explain why, in view of haunting evidence that America's porous border security system enabled 19 murderous Islamofascists to move around the country and get in position to kill nearly 3,000 Americans on 9/11, were provisions stripped out of the final version of the intelligence reform bill that were specifically written to prevent that from happening again?
"The only response was that those concerns could be addressed next year.
"The potentially deadly absence of vital border security provisions in the intel reform legislation is scandalous and unacceptable and it is why I could not in good conscience support the bill."

We need a comic book called:
How To Go Home
I read that part of what our immigration people have to do in order to deport individuals is have a country willing to take them. This makes me wonder if the Fox government is refusing to take thier immigrants back. And, if passenger jets were to land in Mexico City filled with illegals from the US would they refuse to let them stay. Can they "force" us to keep them? And, if they refused to keep them would that give illegals some kind of "refugee" status???
The Mexican elites are at least a little more clever than that --- they just raised minimum wage to the equivalent of $4.15 an hour --- it's been the equivalent of more than that in the past --- they can let the planes land --- but with the farms dried up (less of Mexico is irrigated today than in the past), extreme low pay, poor conditions, no hope for the majority, they know that most will just head back up. In fact they want them to return every now and them, the government officials rob them on their return -- confiscate the televisions and DVD's, or charge them huge fees --- imagine paying a $30-40 tax on a television you paid $60 to bring it in? Yet that's what happens over there when the illegals go back for a visit.
