WASHINGTON — Plans requiring passports from people entering the United States don't pass muster with President Bush
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
Bush: "Passaports! They don't need no stinkin' passaports!"
Bush not concerned with border security ping.
Exactly. We need to use market forces to address this 'so called' border problem. It's funny how most on this thread seem to think ANOTHER piece of paper required by government is going to make them feel better.
How do you determine who is legal vs. illegal without checking their ID's? This is Bush's way of ratifying the Free Trade of the America's without having to have that pesky legislative branch (the will of the people) involved.
"Whats it going to take to get some border security here? "
It's gonna take a MASSIVE terrorist attack that results in the loss of thousands of American lives and billions of dollars of damage.
Oh wait - we've already had that....
Just another reason why it's impossible to take Bush seriously on the WOT when he steadfastly refuses to protect even his own borders.
Would you believe..................Guestports?
I'm not. But then again I read the entire article so I could take this comment in context. It's not a big deal to me.
Who's he think he is, anyways.
You mean like punishing businesses who hire illegals?
And so it begins...... Bush relaxing his security stance....boosting Tancredo for 08....Tancredo loses....Jeb in 2012. Sorry to sound like a conspircy theorist, but slowly but surely my assessment is coming to light.
The thing at issue is absolutely no one told the White House about the change to requiring passports; Bush was completely blindsided and said he found out about it on the radio.
Heads are gonna roll.
Friendly suggestion: Read the article before commenting.
You mean Tancredo gets the nomination and loses? BWHAAHAHAHAHAHA.
Did anyone read this article? Or is everyone too busy jumping to conclusions?
Tancredo will not win. Whatever party that nominates a moderate will win.
I agree. We need passports. People have told me that when they go to Canada, it's harder for them to get into Canada then it is to come back to the US. Now that's saying something.
President Bush, the Canadian and Mexican borders are INTERNATIONAL. I needed a passport to go to France. I also have to have one when I go to China. Just because Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean nations are our neighbors, that does not mean that we are to give them special status.
That's what we've been telling the President all along - WE WANT TIGHTER BORDER CONTROL!
Walk around with yer head in a fog ignoring everyone else but Fox and when it lifts a bit yer surprised.
Well, surprise! surprise!
I would expect the resignations of those department heads who made the recommendations on the President's desk, stat. How dare them not agree with his open border policy.
The family and I are driving to Michigan this week, we have to go through Canada to get to Michigan. Requiring a passport would be A HUGE F-NG PAIN IN THE ASS!!!!!
Illegals aren't passing through gated entry points...they are coming across unguarded territory. So guard it better and don't burden the average citizen.
