I love this president, but I desperately wish that he would get as tough on all of these illegals, as he was on the Taliban and Saddam's rotten regime!
Gee Dubya, and a bunch of Freepers for that matter, are DEAD WRONG on this issue.
I am afraid it will take another terrorist attack, one clearly through our southern border, to make them see the light.

I have been saying this for a long time now. According to the DC administration, it's not a matter of "if", but a matter of "when" we have another attack. Seems to me that if they believe this statement, our borders would have been secured immediately.
When our economy experiences a backslide, unemployment begins to rise, the additional 12,000,000 people that are already draining our social programs will not only be unemployed, but will continue to cost EVERY taxpayer in this country dearly. Add a terrorist attack to this major drain and I'm afraid we will experience something like we haven't experienced in 76 years(for those mathe challenged folks, that would be the great depression of 1929).
They are only maybe two dozen hardcore relaxed immigration advocates but they do enjoy one advantage.
Na! How many terrorist attacks have we already had? How many were supposedly thwarted by our expensive intelligence? How many non-Mexicans have been reported coming across the border? The government doesn't care about this issue. If Big Brother was ever going to care, there's plenty of reasons already. One more attack will be just another attack. Perhaps I am more pessimistic than you are. :-(
This president is usually portrayed as politically attuned. One terrorist attack killing or maiming one school child traced to an illegal border crossing would doom this president and perhaps the entire republican party to an ignominious end. They would be lucky to escape being tarred and feathered (with many rank and file republicans wielding the tar and feathers.) It is imperative for republicans in Congress who wish to escape this fate get on record as fiercely opposing the president and they must also get the democrats in congress on record as opposing any effort to control the borders.
Believe me, all normally conservative or republican spokesman in the media (Limbaugh, Hannity, O'Reilly, Hume, etc.)will join in the attack on the president and those who left us unprotected at our borders.
