"Who would ever have thought that he'd ignore the pleas for help from the border patrol, abandoning them to a hopeless situation and possible death, or that he'd ignore the pleas of help from the American citizens who live in those areas and fear stepping outside at night, because they may be shot by armed foreign nationals, smuggling mexicans and drugs?"

This sums up my thoughts on this. I'm sickened by the goings on along the southern border, and furious that we're not only not stopping it, but not making Mexico pay the price for the damage already caused.

And for that reason, millions of Americans will not vote Republican in '04. I will vote third party. Those of us who supported Bush have been made fools of because of his inability to cut the umbilical cord with Mexico.

Amen to that.

Your post is worthy of a bump and a repeat reading!

This is about Globalism. I'm pretty sure about that. "Free Trade", the free flow of goods and peoples across boundaries, the "trade of the Americas", a "Pax Americana", and later an Americas styled currency.

The second lat in trilateral? The Amero? Followed by a pacific or Asian grouping with one currency.

Then down the road a few years, why hey, we don't need three currencies. And since there are only 3 currencies we should all just use one currency. So much easier, and so much easier to implement now!

I'll say it...Bush is a RINO

That would be the rated “G” version of what I was thinking.

Remember Dashole's UNION he is protecting from Homeland Security???...It is a branch of the same lousey "protected" bunch provinding US the "good for government work" work ethic, endorsed and protected by Colleen Kelly the UNION president!

WE must get Homeland Security...FIRE the lowest of low Federal Union members who end up working the southern borders, and get IQs,work ethic and EQUIPMENT (requiring the IQs) down on the borders and managed by a NO NONSENSE boss who can FIRE the bumbling morons.

The UNIONS are so beholdened to the Democrat party they are too worried to "FIRE UPON" future Democrat party voters spilling over the voters. GOODNESS the same UNION led bunch want to have watering holes in the desert to placate the "illegal familes" here in the USA when MORE family members wander over our borders...the INS and the Border Agents are NOTHING more than an extension of the DNC.

I am tired of people BLAMING Bush or ANY elected official because of the UNIONS' strangle hold on FEDERAL UNION workers. The Democrat's lip lock on the Unions is the setting up a two against one war when GW or anyone has to address the REAL problem on the borders..."Half ass union attitudes in the name of protection...."

REMOVE the UNIONS from the Federal Government NOW!!!

"That has a demoralizing effect on the agents."

Give me a break...how can anyone "demoralize" half ass "good enough for government work" low life Federal unions members...I thought the criteria of hiring a border agent is to find a Federal Union member approved to carry a gun but too damn stupid to find a job anywhere else in the "Federal Gov'ts Circus of Union Memebers Cush Job" market...BAN all UNIONS in the FEDERAL Government NOW!

Let's get old fat ass Colleen Kelly's butt down on the border and have her EXPLAIN what the UNION thinks "ought to be done" in the name of the UNION she represents.

Now you've moved from “uninformed” to “idiot” stature.

Gee... if it was up to the UNION members, the border would be secure, but George "RINO" Bush wants open borders. This HOMELAND security department is a farce to grab more power. Get a clue.

Sure looks like a farce around here this weekend (sarcasm!). We got an Islamofascist affiliate running around with a rifle shooting people in front of Jewish owned businesses or in Jewish neighborhoods.

Then, there were those planes aimed at us, and one actually hit a major public building around here.

It's time for the Senate to get off it's tail and wrap up this business.

Washington cannot be allowed to turn a blind eye to our borders. It will be a HUGE issue in 2004.

I agree ... but it should be a HUGE issue today ... for November's elections! It would have been a HUGE issue in 2000 if Buchanan had been allowed into the debates.

It's time for George "RINO" Bush to close the borders, that will take care of business.

Oh Bush has a clue. Bush knows! To do something means loss of those precious few Mexican votes and contributions. ALL politicians will sacrifice the citizen for their few moments in the sun.

Actually shutting down the borders won't do a thing to resolve the terrorism. They just arrested 6 American born AlQaida terrorists - 4 in Portland and 2 elsewhere, and we have this guy wondering around the DC area killing people.

Now, here's what would really help this country out - just ship everybody back home whose people arrived after 1828! Can you imagine the wide open vistas that would give us, and everybody could live in a really great house. We could let the Louisiana Territory revert to it's natural conditions and the Mississippi River dams and controls could be blown up as just so much useless concrete.
