Guess what, Sabertooth. I completely agree with you.
Uh, oh... My calendar says the 19th, not the 1st.
You drinkin' early?

We wouldn't need to control the border if companies would actually be investigated and prosecuted for hiring illegal immigrants. For instance, Tyson Foods was indicted for atively seeking Mexicans to come to the US illegally and work in Tyson plants. If such activity is provable, Tyson should have to re-establish the citizenship or immigration status of every one of its workers. But will the government make Tyson do so? Hardly! Immigration is a joke because there are too many open-border globalists who think everyone should have the right to live in a welfare state America.

It's ridiculous spending any money on the WOD as long as the borders are wide open because Mexico uses illegals and legals to bring the drugs over. End the WOD and use that money to seal up the borders.

Punish, fine and jail employers that employ illegal immigrants and the problem will go away in the blink of an eye.

You say use the military like O'Rielly keeps harping on but the numbers are the same so we'd need half a million more military troops with probably 150 Billion dollars added to the defense budget?There's more than one way to get rid of the problem. It seems to be working OK in Afghanistan. Remember, this invasion is deliberate. Perhaps you missed the venom the Marxist Mexican foreign minister has been spewing in California.

Do a quick search using the words 'Kennedy' & 'immigration reform' to see how many worthless pieces of legislative crap have been passed on this issue.
Yep, Kennedy sure has been a reliable ally in the pursuit of a sensible immigration policy, ever since he sponsored the grandaddy of 'immigration reform' bills in '65.

For $6 billion, we can build a 30-foot high, steel-reinforced concrete wall the entire 2,000-mile-length of the U.S./Mexico border. We wouldn't need a massive army for patrolling the border if we had a physical barrier. It is the same principle of a security fence around a factory with a few guards monitoring video cameras and other devices.
Fences and walls are as old as mankind and billions are still spent to build them because THEY WORK!
We don't have to re-invent the wheel here. We just have to use some common sense and acknowledge the overwhelming demand from the American people to stop illegal immigration into our country.

Any price-ANY-is worth paying in order to protect our nation. Bitching about dollars today will look pretty stupid in 50 yrs when our country has been changed from the great place that it is to a 3rd world toliet.

"
He said that kind of thinking was not unique to Mexico and had led to weak border control by the INS and other government agencies. This is scary stuff."
But natural. JBTs everywhere have more in common with each other than the people on whose necks their boots are planted.

President Bush supports the legislation and has described border security as one of his top priorities. LOL!

If you don't think it's worth the cost, then may your city be the first one hit.

That's only 1 years worth of foreign aid we give to Egypt and Israel each and every year!

We need border control to KEEP THE TERROIST OUT!
It doesn't matter if all employers immediately stopped hiring illegal aliens today, we STILL need border control!

Heheehe. Well, I can agree with your proposals, but I can also agree that President Bush hasn't done anything to give amnesty to ALL the illegals either... there is a fine line between fact and reaction. But we've been down that road before...
That said, your ideas are fine. I am all for making the borders secure and completely closed off.

President Bush is the leading obstacle to controlling illegal immigration in this country and his "open door" border policy is a threat to national security, the Republican chairman of the Congressional Immigration Reform Caucus said yesterday. This bears repeating. If Bush is conciously promoting a policy that is a threat to National Security than logically Bush himself is a threat to the Nation's security.
Bush screams about protecting America yet does nothing about closing the door by which hundreds if not thousands of terrorits come into this nation every year.

Where do you put this "great wall" (that will make us look unbelievably silly) in the parts of the border that are defined by rivers? Right down the middle of the river, like an island?
