A wet noodle survey from a wet noodle politicians. He asks several questions about a "civilian corps" to help patrol the border, but never mentions more BP agents, enforcing immigration laws, mass deportaions, use of the military (like we do for Korea, Iraq, and Afghanistan), a wall/fence perhaps (like we do for Israel in the form of billion$ in foreign aid)?

Frist is lame.

Not all Johny-Come-Latelies are to be trusted, particularly members of this infernal senate. I prefer someone who's been serious about borders for a longer time.

Ol' boy Billy figured it out - the first National Republican to even hint at securing the border gets the nomination!

Yeah....and he's using his questionaire to generate an email list for a run for the presidency.

The survey was pretty clear so there weren't any "trick questions" where those who want to save the nation from the invasion didn't have any good choices, or had so many it lowered percentages.

He's got a ways to go, though. Nothing about a bounty on the invaders, jail time and fines for employers, sending home any non-citizen if a US citizen can be found for the job. Nothing about English-only in the workplace. Nothing about US military on the borders. If he's reading, we'll get him educated.

I did this survey as soon as it came in my e-mail, and hope everyone does the same.

Good for Frist for doing this. Maybe the leaders of our party will finally catch on!

Thanks for posting this, Coleus, and thanks for the ping, Mr. Silverback.

The war on terror in Afghanistan and Iraq is only part of the war on terror. If the administration doesn't want us to have to fight terrorism with the U.S., they must secure our borders. This should have been a major priority immedately following 9-11.

This is a bogus survey. Not one mention of enforcing existing law and fineing businesses for hiring illegals.

You left off the last two!

19. Do you believe that citizens acting as volunteer support for the Border Patrol are crude, trigger-happy racists?

Yes

No

Let me meet with 13 of my closest colleagues first

20. Do you believe we should nuke Mecca?

Yes

No

This has become a parody of a caricature of a joke of a hypothetical statement by Tom Tancredo. Look, over there!

I'll be eagerly awaiting the results of this one.

Frist is a RINO? No wonder he doesn't have a pair.
