Well, I now know you aren't interested in a serious discussion.

Wrong, I'm interested in a serious discussion. You on the other hand are incapable of simple logic. Well, that and the obvious fact that you must have flunked math throughout your years in school.

Thanks for the cut-and-paste and Michelle Malkin's personal opinion - which is just that: her personal opinion.

Sorry, but the stats back her up. Plus, she has interviewed actual field agents with ICE and their stories also back up the stats. You mean that most of the 62 illegals in Galveston didn't wind up getting released after groups like LULAC raised hell...?

(1) The Clinton administration had a success rate with fining violators of 9.0% while the Bush administration has had a rate of 17.4% - or almost double the Clinton rate.

WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY MEANINGINGLESS BECAUSE THERE WERE ONLY A FRACTION OF THE ARRESTS MADE IN THE FIRST PLACE! HELLO! ANYONE HOME....??

OK, I'll try to make this real simple for you. What would you rather have : 9 percent of $7,554 dollars or 18 percent of 735 bucks....?? Duh!

And you continue with more insults and less reasoning.

As I demonstrated, they don't.

It is in the field agents' interest to blame the brass and not themselves for decreases in perceived effectiveness.

They are not impartial witnesses.

The flamboyance is amusing, but I know you read my second bullet point - your failure to address it is more instructive than your response.

Is the $7,554 a vanished dream of the past and the $735 the only money actually available? I'll take the real money.

Again, your failure to address my second bullet point underscores your fundamental lack of seriousness.
