And how many times did you call for Slick Willy's Impeachment when the same or even more were crossing the border?

You're a tool, my friend. The millions that have been crossing the border every year for the last 50 are only reported about when a Republican is in the White House. Go take a look at how much money has been spent on the border since 2001 and compare that against the last 5 presidents and get back to me.....

Good Night, I'm off to bed

You on the other hand are a fool, and no friend of America. People like you are going to have to decide whether they owe their allegiance to a man and his career, or to a nation and its laws. Looks like you have already made that choice.

I've been harping on this issue for about fifteen years. I'll bet that I have made just that comment about Clinton.

As for the numbers being greater under Clinton, that's simply untrue.

The numbers pretty well stayed around 1 million during the Clinton years. During that time I tried to get anyone who would listen, to speak out about this issue.

Since Bush's first intimation that a legal guest worker program would be instituted for those already here, the numbers have gone through the roof. It is estimated that around 3 million per year enter our nation illegaly now.

As for expenditures, that's a rather hollow comment. The numbers have tripled, yet you tout an increase in expenditures. What you've signed on to, is the fact that Bush has thrown a bunch of money at this, and has failed miserably to get it under control.

And who said that his actions were poorly designed?

Silly goose; look up Operation Hold The Line and Operation Gatekeeper before bringing Clinton into this mess. The last President, liberal and slimy though he was, did far more to secure our borders than this President has even considered. That certainly speaks volumes to me...

"Go take a look at how much money has been spent on the border"

Liberal rule number 1: When you have a problem, spend lots of money to fix it.
Liberal rule number 2: If the problem hasn't been fixed, you're not spending enough money yet.

It's not about cash spent on the problem; it's about solutions developed and implemented. That means, quite frankly, an Israeli style wall from the Pacific to the Gulf patrolled by military personnel. Clinton got a couple sections of the wall built during his two terms. He never finished the wall, but he got it started. Those walls have worked fantastic in reducing illegal immigration in the targetted areas, which has forced illegals into the desert and mountain terrain. This President has done nothing more than make token gestures (small increases in the USBP) and issue confused remarks (amnesty first, then a 'once and for all' solution later). None of it has translated into clear and verifiable steps to control the massive and critically dangerous problem of insecure borders.
