Yeah, but they will still need to be compensated for their time and effort. I figure 2000 civilian border patriots will cost the government $11 million a year. 2,000 patriots X 365days X a case of old milwaukee $15 = $10,950,000
Thank you for showing us all once again why you are called the right fringe. Dubya worked so hard to elect Republicans and win re-election and took his solemn inaugural oath so he could destroy America. Grow up.
Gee maybe Dubya got confused by the fact that none of the Mexicans are blownin' stuff up.
No only that illegal aliens from Mexico do form a large percentage of the crime rosters.
Why would I flame you? You, me and a lot of other people here agree that this is Bush's major flaw, immigration. Militarizing the border is absolutly vital to national security.
"Gee maybe Dubya got confused by the fact that none of the Mexicans are blownin' stuff up."
Illegals kill more each year than the 3,000 who died on 9/11. They account for a large percentage of inmates in our jails.
So, your snarky remark is nothing but blind support for the policy and void of any intelligent thought.
A $2.5 trillion dollar budget should make anyone feel like they're swallowing a peach pit. It's immense and awful to see that much government spending.
That said, I wonder why this is being cut when there are so many other juicy targets.

So 'rod' where are you getting your *facts* from, that you always post. ???
Here's what the Chairman of HDS Christopher Cox had to say about terrorists crossing our southern border.
"Border agents have reported an increased number of individuals from countries of national security interest -- countries known to harbor terrorists -- who have been smuggled recently across our borders.
"In 2004, border patrol agents arrested over 650 suspected terrorists from countries of national security interest trying to cross the southern border, and they expect the number will rise this year.
OOPS !!! here's the link...

If there is new evidence just released or declassified that proves me wrong on something I will admit that I was wrong.
But I have always carefully said that there have never been any confirmed cases of terrorists jumping the southern border. I've never denied that people have been arrested as suspected terrorists, we all know of a number of those cases, and followed them to the point where is was determined that they were not terrorists. Example, the six Chinese headed to Boston.
There is nothing in this article that confirms that a terrorist has jumped the southern border.
My "facts" are still valid, and may even be stronger when we see the new commission reports in toto instead of out of context
Typo, should read 2,000 per year.
*Confirmed* terrorists ??? Too bad now days most confirmed terrorists are also DEAD terrorists, along with the innocents they kill.
Up until they attack, I'm sure many are just only *suspected* terrorists, & many *unknown* at all.
At any rate, using gov't own capture rates, I hope everyone feels safe with possibly some 1300 *suspected* terrorists, crossing safely into the USA, via our southern border last year.
