"Border Patrol Told to Stand Down in Arizona"

How can you tell?

[Don Corleone]

Several field agents credited the volunteers with cutting the flow of illegal aliens in the targeted Naco area, saying the number of apprehended illegals dropped from an average of 500 a day to less than 15 a day.

Do the math..500 per day = 182500 per year just in that small area...Its a bloomin' flood and MUST BE STOPPED!

If true, someone should lose their job.

Whoever gave those orders needs to be fired immediately! Time to use the whistleblower act!

Perhaps Americans should stay home from work in protest to this invasion.

I think stories like this one are truly useful if, and only if, at least one of them would provide a copy or image of the written orders.
If the orders are not "written", how can "management" substantiate a refusal to follow orders?

Since we are about to receive a new ID card to insure (like that's what it is for)our security, I have some questions.

Can we agree that we, having that sense known as Common Sense, would have closed our northern and southern borders on September 12, 2001?

The President continually states that he is fighting for our security...our freedom.

So, why have the borders not been closed?

Free trade? I don't think so. Trade across the borders may have slowed, but with fine tuning that would have been short lived.

Cheap labor? How cheap would that labor have to be to be worth our national security?

I'm feeling like I did after the bombing of the Murrah Building, when Clinton got his gun restrictions so easily.
There is another agenda, isn't there? What exactly is it?

They are government employees, members of the government federal employee union, thus vote democrat. They are not going to do anything because these people are making them look bad. They will sit on their collective asses and try to pretend nothing is going on down there. With 20 million illegals in this country and most of those coming from down south, someone needs to be fired and a new organization put in place to monitor the borders. But, first, our dear president needs to get off his lazy ass and do something about the border problem instead of granting them amnesty and granting them full rights of citizens. This is one issue that Mr. Bush and I clearly do not see the same. He does not think it a very big problem. I think it is a MAJOR problem.
