Poat the whole statement please. This is FR, you know better than to try that.
Guess this is McCain's first real test? What a bunch of 'hoo-ey'. Protect our borders!!!!
PS: makes you wonder where they are taking the National Guard, eh?
Its amazing to me that Iraq is held as the paragon of a national security effort while our own borders are somehow an understandable circumstance, a problem too difficult to solve.
The lives of Americans are at stake. Its almost as if theyre waiting for an opportunity for some event to occur- an event that will cause millions of Americans to accept a greater loss of freedom.
As much as I support the war in Iraq, our border security is more important, it is the first line of defense
As if McCain would do anything. He's the author of amnesty, and we can't count on him for anything.
PS: makes you wonder where they are taking the National Guard, eh?
Good point. Maybe to Columbia? The NM guard just returned home a couple of weeks ago from one year in Iraq so they're not going anywhere for a while.
I remember reading from time to time about the “deal” that was made with the mob in WWII to secure our ports against enemy infiltration, and people I know have been generally supportive of those actions. I’ve been meaning to read “Mafia Alliance”.
After watching both parties generally be as soft as they can on border control, it occurred to me that it might be conceivable that we made a similar deal with the drug-dealing elements on the border after 9/11 — or beforehand, if you would believe Mr. Sheen and co. The two border agents tossed into the dungeon might have been considered a small price in comparison to the millions that could conceivably die if a terrorist got through, and Americans would be none the wiser for the next 50 or so years.
Adding insult to injury, McCain adds Juan Hernandez as "Hispanic Outreach Director" to his campaign staff a while back. For those of you who aren't familiar with the "Burger King" clone, here's some background info:
Well, it does indeed beg the question ... why?
There's big bucks in this - somewhere. And, it ain't for just one or two people for a couple dollars.
Just in time for New Mexico to have a vast increase Democrat voters!
Three out of tree remaining candidates just “happen” to support open borders and mass amnesty.
Obviously, this is a high priority for TPTB.
I’m sorely tempted to post something the likes of which got you banned for a while a couple of years ago.
Go ahead if you want. It won’t make any difference. We’ll never get a fence, we will get a mass amnesty, and our republic will be finished when 20 million illiterate 3rd world entitlement seekers are added to the ‘rat voter rolls.
Securing the border was never a priority. I still think Dubya, will sign a mass pardon on 20 January 09.
The next President and congress will use it as cover and the issue of amnesty wil be over, the entitlements, then will crush us from the inside out.
I’m sure I’m just plumb wrong and dumb to boot, but I thought the governor of a state had the authority to send out National Guard troops at his discretion. I guess I got that crazy idea when I was just a gleam in my father’s eye and Orval Faubus dispatched them to a high school in Little Rock.
” but I thought the governor of a state had the authority to send out National Guard “
You are correct BUT who is the Govenator of NewMex (should be called Pecos but that is...) - why it’s non other than Bill Richardson - notorious DemoRat traitor sitting in the wings of the presidential primary jerkwad - “...What? Me call out the NG - surely you jest!!”
Yep. Shouldn’t have been much of a surprise all things considered.
That’s sort of what I was thinking. It’s nice to know somebody else thought of it as well.
the incentive to come here? the US is a much much better country than mexico, with or without welfare.
