Chertoff is on Hannity now giving the double talk. He said the cost of sending people back to their country is high. Building a fence would require 3 tiers of fencing in urban areas and no fence in the desert. Crap. Build the fence, concrete not chain-link, under a works program like the TVA.
Well an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Build a fence and stop them at the border and we won't have to buy bus or plane tickets.
If the cost is presently too high to send them back what's it going to be 3 or 6 years from now when their guest worker visa runs out and they refuse to go home?
That statement by Chertoff proves the games they're playing with this issue. They have no intention of ever enforcing the laws, period.
"Build the fence, concrete not chain-link, under a works program like the TVA."
Dontcha know, these days they would hire illegal immigrants for the construction?
The federal government would let a contracts, with a private company. The contracts would have a clause forbidding hiring illegals.
The government would take no action to enforce that clause.
The contractor would fill his files with the fraudulent documents provided by the workers, and everybody would be set.
BAU. no problema
This system is acceptable with the workers, the employers, the federal government, the Republican party, the democrat party.
Cherthoff should be fired. He's on national television giving excuses why the homeland won't be properly secured. Without border security there is NO homeland security. But he sure is playing the good toady and shilling for the president's continued dereliction of his duty to secure each state from invasion.
I would suggest that deer stands be erected at every mile marker along the border and that volunteers man those deer stands to shoot anything that walks. Coyotes will take care of the carcasses!
Need a volunteer??????
End of subject, end of discussion........

Capture the Illegals, and put them to work. Give them a living wage. Meaning if they don't work, they don't eat, they don't live. Have the Illegals build our border fence.
If Vincente Fox doesn't like it, we can tell him:
"Its work even Americanos that are negro won't do.
Put detained illegals on a chain-gang like we used to have and have them build the damn thing. As is, illegals that have been detained are simply taken to court and given a date when they have to show up for their hearing. Most don't subsequently show up of course. Instead of just letting them go, we can make them work on building the wall in the meantime.
"...no fence in the desert..."
Fine. Mine field.
