Hey, I've been as loud as any about sealing the borders, but I never supported the idea for having troops on AMERICAN STREETS. Support is only at the border for such an experiement. That's why a beef-up in the border patrol, internal security division, is needed for internal roundups. The military shouldn't be used to patrol the streets. It's too Orwellian.

There is no other logical reason. The BIG PROBLEM, according to many around here are the 8 to 14 million illegal aliens we have in the country right now. There is NO way that the INS can round them up and deport them with 2000 field agents and local LEO's have blown off Bush by refusing to arrest them. The administration may have decided that once the round ups have begun and word gets out that the borders will seal themselves and many will be heading south instead of north.
