Enforcing the law also means deporting illegal aliens. Don't hold your breath waiting for any office holder to actually obey the law and do this. America is being transformed into something else- come to California and see your future.
It makes me absolutely sick everytime I hear anyone use that common phrase "You can't deport 11 million people. It just can't be done." as the introduction to the argument.
And, WHY NOT?????
I don't see us wringing our hands wondering what to do with all the criminals in our society. I don't hear anyone saying, "... well, you can't just lock up 11 million criminals. It just can't be done." It seems to me that most of America has that one pretty well figured out.
And, how about this?
Clear our the Federal Pens near the borders. Use them as holding and processing stations for the Border Patrol's new assignment - to actually ENFORCE AND FOLLOW THE LAW AS IT IS WRITTEN.
Then we could use the some twisted process of Eminent Domain or something to take Ray Nagin's busses that he has no use for...... to start the wagon train back to Mexico!
I'll bet - in a few years, we'd have a much better control of the problem if WE ACTUALLY STARTED DOING SOMETHING!
