Apples to oranges, Luis. This wasn't about catching people at the border and busing them just across the border. This was about making a widespread enforcement action deep into the border states, and deporting the illegals well into Mexico. That led to a 10-1 ratio of self-deportations to forced deportations. And that is what enforcement-first proponents such as myself have been saying all along. But powerful and corrupt interests don't want such - and it took someone with the character of Eisenhower to thwart those interests, as the article clearly states.

So you don't really believe your "137.5 years" thing. Good to hear.
