If they don't do anything, people complain, now that they are starting to address the problem and do something, instead of applauding, that better late than never, you are screaming your head off and criticizing.
Chertoff has only been there a few months. Also, Tom Ridge must have done something right, we didn't have any terrorist attacks on US soil during his tenure, but I guess that doesn't count, just so you can bash the Bush administration, right?
BTW, I was stumping for Barry AuH20 in 1964. Also, read my bio, kiddo.

I'd be hiding too if I'd published that little gem.
In the past three years not only has the problem gotten dramatically worse under Bush's administration but it has principally been Bush's own personal pronouncements that has created the slippery slope. Not only have Bush's pronouncements given hope to Mexico's poor, which has fueled the rush north but his attitudes now leave most to conclude that he'll "solve" the problem by accepting all who can make it.
Tom Ridge presided over one of the largest economic assaults against our country by a foreign government in our nation's history. In the past three years illegal immigration from Mexico has bankrupted California and threatens the availability of a social safety net in Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. Mexico's policy encouraging illegal emigration into the US threatened the economic stability of our republic and Ridge did absolutely nothing to stop it.
Good point, and easy to forget.
