Bush will be remembered as the man who sold out America to Mexico.

[Clemenza]

Reagan "sold us out" to Mexico, despite that stupid quote on the "nation without borders" that people like to quote. Every President since Carter has "looked the other way" on illegal immigration.

Besides, with Mexican birthrates plummetting, and abortion now legal in DF, in 30 years, it will be folks named Perez complaining about the illegals from Nigeria. ;-)

Yeah there weren't any illegals from Mexico here before Bush became president.

*rolls eyes*

How did you find out, you aren`t on the list? By the way, when President Bush sold the country to Mexico, how much did he get and why did the Mexicans want to buy Detroit?

[DoughtyOne]

One more eight year administration along the lines of Bush’s and it won’t matter if there is an American Union or not. An amount of illegals equal to half of Mexico’s population will be here and the blackmail already evidenced will be enhanced to the point that citizens will have no say whatsoever in what takes place here.

Then some who claim to be “Conservative” will support fixing this by legalizing them and claiming victory for the newly renamed nation of Mexico Del Norte.

"Bush will be remembered as the man who sold out America to Mexico."

Utter rubbish. President Bush obtained the funds to build hundreds of miles of border fences, deployed more border patrol agents, utilized UAV drones for border patrolling, and packed radiation detection systems along our borders, on our agents, on satellites, and at sea.

People like you are hijacking thread after thread, posting nonsense likes drunks around a campfire. Trash talk. "Bush is bad" even though the stats and laws and actions show otherwise.

You reek of being a paid, professional disruptor.

I just spent 9 days along the U.S. - Mexico border, including 2 days around Playa de Tijuana and Tijuana itself. Unlike what you'd see 5 years ago, you don't see hordes of illegals running and swimming across the border. You *do* see U.S. border patrols, U.S. Coast Guard ship patrols, helicopter patrols, and a big steel fence that GWB built after 9/11.

Now granted, this increased border security probably isn't perfect, but it irritates me that people are claiming that we've "done nothing" or that our borders are still "wide open" and other such nonsense.

Yes, there are remote desert areas where environmental groups have successfully sued the Bush Administration in order to slow the construction of the steel fence. Yes, those remote areas *are* passable on foot (but you'd better bring a bunch of water and be prepared to hike for miles) for now. So clearly more needs to be done.

But we also have to give credit where it is due, and there has been substantial progress on border security in the last 3 years, contrary to the people who keep writing articles based on pre-9/11 information.

Once easy, Illegal Immigration Now Risky:President Bush Builds 12 ft Tall Steel Fence Along Mexican Border From The Pacific Into Arizona, Plus Around Major Populated Areas In Arizona and Texas

Illegals Deported By The Planeload Now

"The president cited a 66 percent increase in border-security funding since he took office, along with a 42 percent increase in interior-enforcement spending and a total of 6 million illegal aliens caught and returned home." http://www.washingtontimes.com/functions/print.php?StoryID=20060326-123457-5749r
