"Do you think Bush will sign the bill passed by the Senate, if it were presented to him as is?"

AP Today, YUMA, Ariz. - President Bush said Thursday it makes sense to put up fencing along parts of the U.S.-Mexico border but not to block off the entire 2,000-mile length to keep out illegal immigrants.

During a visit to one of the busiest crossing sectors, Bush did not declare his support for either of two competing proposals in Congress — one approved by the House that would build 700 miles of fencing and one in the Senate that would build half that. Instead, he said the Border Patrol should guide the decisions.

Since you responded, do you think Bush would sign the bill?

Have you ever tried to dam a river by placing a piece of dam here and a piece of dam there across its width?
