From The Arizona Republic: Arizona may not wait for the federal government to finish building a fence along its 370-mile border with Mexico.
A new law that goes into effect July 20 allows the state to build the fence itself, as long as it can raise enough private donations and get permission to build on federal, Indian, and privately owned land along the border.
State Sen. Steve Smith, R-Maricopa, who sponsored the legislation, was meeting with Gov. Jan Brewer's staff Tuesday to discuss logistics.
Speaking in El Paso, Texas, last week President Obama said the border fence is "now basically complete," something Sen. Smith called "an insult and a lie," the Republic reported.
Uh... and that would be a response to the first text, not the second.
Yesterday there were reports of loyalists attacking a relief boat... could be it.
Excellent
It's a metaphor
I like the way you think on this!!
We have ranchers on the Texas border that are opposed to giving up a small strip of land along the river so a fence can be built.

So these Arizonians you claim are going to dig themselve a wall, and build up some moat to keep out the Libyans?
Hows that workin’ for ‘em? The Libyans that is.
