*Enforcement*.

Very good point. Since most people in this country are too uneducated to know and understand the constitutional duties of the three branches of the federal government, they have no clue that congress passes legislation, executive branch enforces it.

We can bitch all day long about the scum in congress that want open borders. But the fact is, laws exist to deal with illegals and protect our borders. It is not up to congress to enforce them, it is the responsibility of the administration. No administration has enforced them for decades. But there is only one President in office at this time. And the dereliction of duties by previous presidents is not an excuse for Bush to do the same.

Right and especially in a Post September 11th world. This should have been enough... As long as the Republicans can do you to sell out their base (the conservatives) regrading the border, then I just do not see how they can recapture the House or Senate.

That was worth repeating and loudly!

I borrowed one of your statements for a tag line, but don’t have enough room to put ‘ChildOfThe60s’. Do you have an abreviation that you use? lol
