the Bush administration is willing to trash in its rush to . . .
ENFORCE THE LAW.
Trash? What an interesting choice of words to report a long delayed enforcement of law.

Only a little off topic, but Mark Kerkorian is now on Laura Ingraham’s show. He mentioned that McCain and others are now dismissing the immigration issue as something people don’t care so much about.
But he had results from a poll that showed that over half those who voted for McCain thought he was for strict enforcement, and 10% thought he wants to round them all up and deport them. He said McCain “bamboozled” the voters during the primaries.
Maybe there’ll be a story on his findings that can be posted later, but this is what I’ve suspected, that many of those voting for McCain fell for the war hero image and knew little about his stance on immigration and other issues.

jaguarundis? Well, I sure didn’t know they wear them, but I for one will pitch in to buy the jaguars new undis as long as the fence gets built ; )

Based on what I have seen, the tsunami of garbage-tossing Mexicans flooding across our border, dribbling feces and snack food trash along the way seems to easily be a far greater threat to the “fragile desert ecosystem” than would a fence. All the damage a fence could do to migratory paths of “endangered” or “threatened” species is nothing compared to the ecological consequences a smuggled dirty bomb would bring to the US.
Sometimes an excecutive-level decision must be made to proceed in light of the broader picture in spite of the local effects of the decision. Memo to DHS: Please proceed at maximum speed to build an effective fence. We can attempt to mitigate any ecological consequences afterwords.

A wonderfully worded Grand Worry. But somehow, I think the author is really worried that the open border would be closed. When the fence is finished, most the thousands of illegal invaders who invade and destroy the refuge's "fragile ecosystem" would wind up on the side of the fence closet to their native Mexico, finding it virtually impossible to cross the border to steal jobs from Americans by stealing their identity and SSN.

Can you eat them? I’d hate to cut off our supply if they are edible.

Congress passed legislation allowing the environmental reviews to be waived. They are, therefore, not “legally required”. The NY Times remains as full of shit as ever.

Nah, they're cats; not particularly big either. They're shorter legged than most cats, with a long tail, and kind of elongated in the body (picture a feline dachshund). Their size is between that of a big housecat and a bobcat.
They have a coat that appears similar to a regular Jaguar.
