"indefinite detention of immigrants considered national security threats, stepped-up monitoring of foreign students, cracking down on immigration violators..."

I'm all for these provisions, but he forgot the biggie... the daily war of illegals slipping across our sieve borders. Let's put up a wall and post troops there with orders to shoot on sight.

Government regulating has been an abject failure at protecting the citizens. What does government do? The classic liberal statist response to everything that they do that doesn't work. "If it doesn't work, we didn't go far enough." If gun control increses crime, well then we need more of it. If welfare increases poverty, well then we need more of it. If socialized medicine raises medical costs, then we need more of it. If FAA harassment of the flying public doesn't prevent hijacking, then we need more of it. If our intelligence gathering and domestic secret police (FBI) were caught with the pants around their ankles in spite of their total abuse of the Bill of Rights, then give them carte blanche to abuse some more. The list of total and complete failures of government programs to do what their stated goal was is endless. And yet government's response to it's own failure is always the same do more of what caused the problem in the first place and tax us more to pay for it. -- from occupied ga

The movers and shakers want to limit our freedoms while they erase our borders and sovereignty.

One big global melting pot....slowly simmered by Big Brother.
