Would you buy a used car from this man?

For crap sakes, they are bulding a wall in that area, and for another 690 miles.

I live here, and from what I have seen, it is a lost cause anyway. I've only lived here two years, granted, but as an outsider who is stuck here, it has never seemed as though this city has ever really wanted to do anything about illegal immigration. The farms love the day labor, and the retailers love the shoppers. The snowbirds also love to go the other way and cross the border to Mexico for medication and dental. JMHO, of course, not that it's worth much.

Top Homeland Security official Michael Chertoff

One of the worst government appointees of my life time, his piss poor job performance is only surpassed by his general incompetence.

Chertoff said there would be illegal immigrants who would try to cross in the desert heat, but the U.S. had to work toward a solution to the illegal immigration issue.

How about a fleet of nice air conditioned vans to pick up
the "immigrants" so they don't get sunstroke.

There will be a space colony on Mars before a fence is built between USA and Mexico.

Chertoff: What an ASS!!!

Okay, now for some civil discourse... LoL... This administration, in December 2004, cut back the mandate in the Homeland Security Bill --- to add 10,000 new BP agents --- to a few hundred BP agents.

Last year, there was TALK of once again of increasing BP numbers. Now, there is no need for them.

This charade insults my intelligence.

Chertoff said now isn't the time to declare victory

Now there is the understatement of the year!
