Wonderful news.

Just purchased "Camp of the Saints" (a French book, translated to English) on this issue. Great read.

Duncan Hunter is my Rep and he's one of the best on border security and ILLEGAL immigration.

Too bad he's fighting an uphill battle against a president who wants to grant amnesty.

The good news is at least some congresscritters know what needs to be done and aren't hesitant to act.

The bad news is that they're vastly outnumbered.

Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff on Tuesday announced that 1,000 additional border guards would be recruited to help stem the tide of illegal immigrants.


I've been hearing those empty promises for years.

They'll find common ground. We'll end up with a wall that runs from sea-to-sea, but it's only 1-ft. tall.

Might as well just shoot our Economy while you are at it...something like that needs to be gradual.

I say we should get a bunch of Americans to link hands on the border and say "Red Rover, Red Rover, Mexico Come Over." And only those Mexicans who break through get to stay.

Those who say a wall would not work are those who fear it would work.
