During the cold war, we made a concerted effort to control foreign spies on U.S. soil. What has been extremely disconcerting to me, is that our current leadership has simply capitulated the field in the U.S., to all comers across our southern border.

It actually goes beyond this for me though. This is 'our' nation. It is not El Presidente Fox's. None the less, El Presidente Fox sets our border policies by default.

I'm sick of this President Bush. Are you a mouse or a man when it comes to the sactitiy of OUR borders and OUR nation?

Did you or did you not have your fingers crossed when you swore to uphold Article 4 Section 4 of the Constitution of the United States?

Of course, that cuts both ways. Once enough Mexican refugees come to this country, we become the legitimate government of Mexico by default.

I don't know about Bush's adherence to his oath, either as president or from when he was a USAF officer. But I know about mine. And a few others:

24.9 million

The number of military veterans in the United States.
(From the upcoming Statistical Abstract of the United States: 2004-2005.)

1.7 million

The number of veterans who are women.
(From the upcoming Statistical Abstract of the United States: 2004-2005.) 9.7 million

The number of veterans who are age 65 or over.
(From the upcoming Statistical Abstract of the United States: 2004-2005.)

2.4 million

The number of black veterans. Additionally, 1.1 million veterans are Hispanic; 272,000 are Asian; 159,000 are American Indian or Alaska native; and 30,000 are native Hawaiian and other Pacific islander. (The numbers for blacks, Asians, American Indians and Alaska natives and native Hawaiians and other Pacific islanders cover only those reporting a single race.)

8.2 million

Number of Vietnam-era veterans. Vietnam veterans account for more than 3-in-10 veterans, the largest share of any period of service. The next largest share of wartime veterans, 4.4 million or nearly 2-in-10, served during World War II.
m the upcoming Statistical Abstract of the United States: 2004-2005.)

16%

Percentage of Persian Gulf War veterans who are women. In contrast, women account for 5 percent of World War II vets, 3 percent of Vietnam vets and 2 percent of Korean War vets.
