Weak. Unable to pass meaningful immigration reform the Senate passes a usless boondoggle bill meant to curry votes.

This has been a bad week for conservatives.

How about YOU go take some Mexican land...

We did. It's now known as Texas.

You might also want to check into a little concept called 'eminent domain'.

It's in a dusty old document called the Constitution. It's pretty close to the part which designates securing the borders as a Federal responsibility.

What part of "Tax and spend" do you not comprehend?

Uh, sorry. Just forget the funding and wave a magic wand, that will make it all better.

but because we won't forcibly take Mexican land to build it on?

We already did that. We call the Mexican land "Texas".

Sheesh..you'd think the poster would know that.

When they are performing one of the most important duties in the Constitution (protection from invasion), I consider it money well spent.

I just wish there was a way to earmark tax receipts for project like this.

They will take land from Americans (Texans, Arizonans, New Mexicans, Californians), yet lack the guts to take it from Mexico. Pathetic if true.

Actually, we did take that land from Mexico.

What, finally something other than the WOT (well they are related actually) that I support. I applaude this if actually true and not just a joke in length of the wall (10 miles or 100 miles, instead of needing to be at least a good 500 mile start).

Don't mix Republicans in with true Conservatives. Republicans in general are a disgrace to the conservative movement.

I'll bet it will prove to be a rather dangerous job.

Too late, they cannot undo it even if they win, but they are not going to win anyway :)

What's your neighbor's reaction when you build your fence on their land?

They can't undo it? They can fund it to the tune of $20 a year.
