Here is the problem with discussions like this. You think because I disagree with you that I am unaware of the border problems, or that I don't care. That is not the truth at all. I do not support illegal immigration and I want to get it under control, if not totally eradicated. I myself support more stringent penalties for employers of illegal aliens, regardless of their nationality.
However, whenever the discussion begins, all I hear from some people are how NOTHING is being done, that Bush doesn't care, that he supports illegal immigration, etc. etc. That is not true, and if you look at both the Homeland Security bill and the Patriot Act you can find all sorts of things that have been done.
Have they been enough? No, or we wouldn't still be having the problem
But anyone wishing to argue persuasively to me about this is going to have to do better than accusing me of dope-smoking.
