Maybe they are being forced to. If not it may be political suicide. Otherwise they wouldn't bother.

Doug - you know this crisis poses a greater threat to the future of the United States than any event since the Civil War.

What do you think will be the outcome of all of this?

Why should he when he and the small percentage of filthy rich upper class keep their mestizo population poor and lie to them about dreaming aztlan. Aztlan is a fairytale not a reality.

I did not hear that yesterday. Missed the show today though.

I got the impression he was only stirring the pot. The emergency order supposedly allows for deployment of Sheriffs. Has he done this?

Um, I most humbly, agree. (spoken in a very soft, little voice.)

Warfare on the border between Mexican drug gangs and citizens. Finally, the National Guard will be called. Armed U.S. citizens may become vigilantes and force illegals to leave at gunpoint. We have a mess that is not readily solvable. Unfortunately, the ACLU will get judges to issue orders keeping us from solving the problem. I never thought I would do it, but I'll be leaving California in a few years. The good weather is not worth the traffic and the gangs.

We need businessmen who knowing hire illegal aliens to go to jail. The government should confiscate and auction off the business. Hopefully, someone can keep it open and keep people employed.

"Our boarders are a joke!"

That's the understatement of the year!!!!

There's two portals at the border in San Diego which have guards; I-5 and 805. From there over to the AZ border, there's the equivalent of chicken wire fencing.

What I don't understand is why ACLU made a big fuss when Sean Hannity stepped over the fence. I have crossed the border many times into Tijuana. San Diego even re-built the trolley to run between downtown and Tijuana so Mexicans can shop at Horton Plaza. HA!

Punish people who hire criminals. A simple concept that will work...

""Instead of pointing fingers, let's have proposals; instead of each side working by itself, let's work together; only like this will we be able to win," Fox said."

You first, Vincente. What do you propose that we haven't already done?

Spend some pesos, Vincente, and fix your side of the border!

This might be good if it wasn't grandstanding and the only thing Dims can think of to get to Bush. I bet Richardson wasn't even thinking about this until a couple of weeks ago when he got the heads up from the Dims. He was given his talking points and his walking orders.

C'mon, this has been a problem for the 30 yrs that I've lived on the border. Simpson-Mazzouli (sp) was supposed to address it, it didn't, it just made the illegals move away from the border. Bush I wanted to build a fence but no Dims would go along with it.

This is just political grandstanding because they see it as a hot button issue. I really doubt that they will even try to solve the problem but if they do it will be something that just compounds the problem.

we have more BP and INS in this town than we have people anymore (alright I'm exaggerating, but just barely.)

Oh yeah, and let's see if Richardson even tries to close the border to the schoolchildren who come over every day and attend our schools for free. Just a few years ago they had to lie and show "proof" that they lived in the US. They all had the same PO# Box 29, Columbus, NM 88029. I can still remember it I saw it so often. They had to get to Columbus (5 mi.) to catch a bus from within city limits and then the Dims made us send buses to the border to pick them up because it was "dangerous" for them to have to come that 5 mi..

One of our county commisioners wanted a drug dog to go through the buses from Palomas but that can't be done because...Oh you know all the arguments.

I Richardson does that I'll believe its more than grandstanding and a lot of hot air, until then I'll know its just political posturing to woo conservative illegal haters.

It is an election ploy for the Dems. They know that the American people are getting fed up with the illegal immigration situation. The Republicans are moving way to slow in addressing the issue.

I don't care if it is an election ploy. These Democratic election ploys may just end up doing more than the Republican Congress is doing. If they are going to keep doing these "election ploys", we'd be better off electing them instead of the Republicans in Congress who keep claiming they can't do anything about it. IIRC, Jim Sensenbrenner tried to get a bill on illegal immigration considered, and the house leadership said no. NO! And they smear Tancredo more than Democrats do.
