"He'll talk about deploying troops, strengthening border control, more raids on companies that hire illegals, a virtual fence, and letting those who are here already get in line," the source said.

The line begins in Mexico City and in other capital cities around the world where we have our Embassies. Because there is nothing less 'American' than cutting in line in front of those who follow the rules.

As for troops on the border? National guard troops? No, thank you, but there are plenty of regular Army troops sitting around. Rotate them through border watch, build the bases, get it done right rather than temporary camps that will be easy to back out of later on.

After all, that is the job of the military - national defense. And considering that most foreseeable missions on the horizon right now involve desert deployment, this is probably a great training idea as well.

As for when - troops can be deployed and be on station within a week. Mexico officials will scream bloody murder - they'll loose all that fun bribes for ignoring drug runners, gun runners and people runners. Bush has shown a willingness to thumb his nose at Europeans, it's about time we thumb our nose at the crooks south of our border.

Oh, and all those troops stationed in Germany would work REALLY well along the Canadian border as well.

not to mention the national guardsmen WILL NOT HAVE BULLETS OR AUTHORITY TO SHOOT.

THIS IS SMOKE AND MIRRORS TO JUSTIFY
