These guys are coming from all over the country, and they have to leave their families and jobs to stand around with binoculars.
I don't think Guard members choose where they go.
You, of all the Bush bots, are amongst the most disgusting.
If you had your way, Harriet Miers would be sitting on the SC, therefore, you have no credibility, NONE.
Yeah, just think...they could be on the other side of the globe watching the Iraqi border with binoculars...
Hey, most of us are against the guard being on the border. Most of us said from the start it was a scam. You remark is totally idiotic. You sound as if some how the guard members are in charge of who goes to the border. The decision is made by the governors of each state.
Most of the secure the borders people said this wouldn't work, we said that we need more Border Patrol people, as we were promised by Bush, instead of National Guard typists and ditch diggers, which is how they are using them. Most of us are against using our guard in this manner, it is a waste of time and also puts a strain on our guard members.
The open border people are the ones who said this was a great move and would really, really, secure the border and it proved Bush was really, really trying to secure the borders first. The rest of us called it the BS move it has turned out to be.
Hey, how about all the hype when they moved the first, supposedly, 1000 men into their ditch digging positions. Rmemeber, the MSM screaming how much it reduced the amount of illegals coming across. I wonder now, was that just BS too? Oh, of course not, the MSM always tells the truth.
Not enough of them, apparently. If if one joins the guard, they will not be sent down to the border.
