The reason our borders are not under control is that they are nothing more than a long gauntlet. If the entrant makes it past the gauntlet, he is quite literally, home-free. Once inside, he/she most likely will not be deported. This has to change.

Yes, you are correct. IF we would just start quickly and methodically deporting, or re-patriating if you prefer that word, illegal immigrants upon discovery, it would vastly reduce the number of people who come here illegally.

We probably also need to amend the Constitution so that children born in this country to foreign nationals are not by birth US citizens.

Obviously Bush should have closed the borders after 9/11, but as he is great booster of the Mexicans, he failed to do so. It's ok, we must re-elect him anyway; but I'd like to hear some one ask JF'inK how he feels about immigration (legal and not) in these times of a "collapsing" economy. I'd really, really, really, like to see him put on the spot about that.
