"The local news is making them out to be Iraqi Christians trying to get to San Diego."
They might very well be Iraqi Christians but that's not really the point. They shouldn't be sneaking across the border and if they can do it terrorists can do it.
Scouting? What's there to scout?
"The local news is making them out to be Iraqi Christians trying to get to San Diego."
Look, I don't care what they claim to be, they should have to go through the same process regardless--that dog don't hunt.
It's either stupidity beyond belief or deliberate.....in any event it shows gross incompetency on behalf of EVERYONE involved in the decisions not to enforce the border more rigorously.....from Bush on down the ladder. As we see more discussion on this new "North American Community" it's patently obvious illegal immigration is the conditioning tactic used by TPTB to shove this crap down our throats.
"I'm afraid the terrorists are well past the planning stage on that little mission."
Agreed.
Now if, God forbid, an attack occurs before '08, and it's proven that the attackers came over the Mexican border, the next republican candidate for POTUS is dead in the water. GWB is setting the repubilcans up for a huge failure.
Ok, put on your tin foil hat.... is it mere coincidence that Bill Clinton has been chumming around with GHWB? A republican collapse would surely lead to another president Clinton. Makes one wonder.
"Bush is more than a Traitor and less than a man if he does not close and Militarize our borders NOW."
I don't know about the "Traitor" part (Surprised you haven't been banned for typing that!), but with what military do you propose militarizing the borders? I like the idea, but don't see it as realistic, since it's apparently more important to this Admin to fight the insurgents in Iraq, rather than fighting them on our borders.
But this "fighting them over there" mentality only works if the insurgents decide NOT to come over here, which apparently isn't the case here.
"It's probably more likely they just wanted to live here, same as most other undocumenteds."
Sarcasm tag missing?
Wouldn't be the first time a Bush snatched defeat from the jaws of victory and handed the country over to a Clinton on a silver platter now would it?
We are trying to fight a purely offensive war and it's doomed to fail if we don't fight a defensive war as well.
The policy of GWB is no policy. The border has always been porous, since the Mexico and the US become countries. What has changed is the world around us. The problem is that the US cannot hermetically seal itself from the rest of the world. The Canada/US border may be more dangerous than the one to the south. Poverty, mismanagement in mexico couples with a sealed border to the south is a sure recipe for war in that country. The immigration issue is to some degree a safety valve for Mexico. That may not be a popular arguement but it is the reality. That may explain why presidents as far back to T Rooseavelt really never had a set policy. 911 may have changed that and GWB being the ex governor of Texas probably knows that better than anyone else.
Providing that safety valve for Mexico is why nothing changes there, except for the worse. Nobody is asking for the border to be hermetically sealed, only for the US to establish control over the border as is mandated by the Constitution.
Bush is not a traitor, he is a loyal globalist, and he is pushing the globalist agenda as best he can.
"Wouldn't be the first time a Bush snatched defeat from the jaws of victory and handed the country over to a Clinton on a silver platter now would it?"
Ironically, no. And now history is poised to repeat itself.
my they are sharp.....who would've thought of the mexican border as an easy access point? (sarcasm)
I agree with you on that point. Watch GWB set a comprehensive immigration policy sometime in 06 to choke off any potential democratic initiatives. Politics always trumps common sense. That's just the way it is.
Bush is not a traitor, he is a loyal globalist, and he is pushing the globalist agenda as best he can<<<
Boy, do I stand Corrected!!!
He is not a Traitor to Socialism, now is he?
