There have been several efforts to gain control of the border. Most recently by Bush. Funds for the upgraded border fence were redacted by Obama.
Since something is difficult to do, in your apparent opinion, it shouldn’t be attempted.
Your attitude is why we lose elections and have idiots like Willard at the top of the ticket.
What? I think your attitude of kowtowing and appeasing is why we've lost elections.
I'm a realist. The border has not been secured...in any way, shape or form. That's a fact. Any attempt to ever do so has been met with - from BOTH sides - attacks of racism, cost prohibitive, etc.
My wanting the current immigration laws enforced..and NOT what Paul is recycling, er, proposing...is NOT what got Willard on the ticket. Attitudes like yours ARE the reason we got Willard and, subsequently, lost elections.
