"To start with, double the size of the Border Patrol. Provide them with resources to physically secure the borders. "

Why should they? They (Congress) FUNDED 1000 more BP, and GWB hired 200. Who is the FAILURE here?

Something does not add up . . .

"We've added 534 new Border Patrol agents in Arizona and 23 new aircraft," he said. "We're very aware of the frustration that exists along the border and we share some of those frustrations."

. . . A Richardson spokesman said Chertoff called the governor yesterday and assured him that security along the border is a priority for DHS and that some of the 1,000 border patrol agents expected to be added next year will be posted to New Mexico.
