Bottom line: we don't have the men to man the border, we need volunteers.

True, our military does not have the resources to "perfectly" seal the borders but their presence will certainly reduce the numbers of illegals crossing our borders--which is the point. I also think your idea of enlisting volunteers to help the cause is a good one.

Furthermore, increased manpower along the border, regardless of how you achieve it, won't stop the flood so long as we fail to deport Illegals in significant numbers from the American interior.

I agree. The solution to the illegal immigration crisis requires a disciplined multi-pronged approach that addresses each component of abuse. There is no one magic bullet here.

I care.So would you, if this blatantly politically motivated "sounds good" ploy was implemented.I had a lot of respect for him before Tancredo showed his @ss on this one.The DOD is not supposed to operate within our borders.Who would you have them kill? The ignorant illegals or the criminal employers?

Like the WOD, this is a fight we can only win if people are really behind it.The "people" are not behind the WODs and while most of us support the preservation of our borders, it won't really work unless the "people" refuse to be a party to the businesses that hire virtual slave labor for a slight increase in profits.This is not a "union" support idea, this is an integrity issue.

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH COMPANIES OR INDIVIDUALS WHO HIRE ILLEGAL WORKERS!DO NOT HIRE THEM YOURSELF!

I hate taxes too, but if you pay an illegal under the table, you have just perpetuated the invasion! Saved $10.00 on a yard mowed,Clap, clap.You just cost yourself and the rest of us thousands in tax dollars to support anchor babies and the rest of the handouts to illegal invader criminals.Mexico extends their appreciation. No amount of self serving "compassion" will excuse any contribution to the downfall of our country.
