None, it would be a net loss.

In your opinion. And you're free to hold that opinion.

However, I've spoken to retired military commanders and Border Patrol agents who disagree with you. Former Chief Border Patrol Agent Bill King will speak at the rally in favor putting the military on the border.

Can I ask you, do you live near the border? Have you visited the border area to see the current invasion? There are people who are far more familiar with the current situation who may know a bit more than you do about it. Some of these people support putting troops on the border.

I'm sure you have spoken to retired military "commanders" who would agree...there are more then a couple out there who still don't seem to understand role and capability of the military. Heck, there's more then a couple who would like to see the nation under a military dictatorship.

Oh, as a military officer I was activiely involved in border problems...the Coast Guard being the only military service with the legal authority and training to be involved with it.

I even had planning experience with our so-called allies on the other side of the border...the northern border where the greatest terrorist entrance threat exists. But you all have fun any way.
