The Congressional Budget Office estimates the fence will cost $3.2 million a mile, Congress voted to hand DHS just $1.2 billion in fiscal year 2007 for construction. DHS needs to use half of it for other purposes besides the fence like technology and roadways. With say half of the 3.2 left what do you get...a little over 150 miles of fence? It's a down payment on 700 miles pal ....and you ain't getting no more now.
The Congressional Budget Office estimates the fence will cost $3.2 million a mile, Congress voted to hand DHS just $1.2 billion in fiscal year 2007 for construction.So that means there still could be over 300 miles built with the funds allocated - or roughly the amount called for in the bill that was shot down.
Yet Bush has only built 11 miles.
So the lack of a fence has nothing to do with the failure of this bill.
You're so stupid, you post factoids that gut your own argument.
