Well I sure do, and I'm serious as can be. The entire border needs to be fenced with a double fence including a two-lane road in between the two fences for patrolling purposes. Fencing every inch of the the entire border from end to end is necessary for public relations reasons if for no other. It would tell Mexico, the citizens of this country, and illegals and potential illegals that we are truly serious about controlling our southern border.
Why would we run the fence down the middle of the Rio Grande in any case? Wouldn't we put the fence on our side of the border? It would have to go on land that we own, after all, and that's territory on our side of the border. If we could build the federal highway system, why would we have any difficulty at all in fencing the entire southern border? I see it as essential. A discontinuous fence would send the wrong message, a message that we are not serious about controlling our border.
If I remember correctly, the Germans never breached France's Maginot Line in WWII, they just went around it.
Because it might’ve led to embarrassing questions during Chertoff’s brief talk radio offensive yesterday?
The real solution is a combination of physical barriers which funnel the illegals into areas where we have good persistent surveillance and an ability to react quickly. I would also throw in mobility of sensors so as the illegals and coyotes adapt, you can redeploy quickly.
Just say NO to Illegal Alien Amnesty!! Keep calling!! It’s NOT OVER!!

Many of us are plenty serious about having a REAL border put up down there, so tough they can’t break or ram through, and so tall you can’t see over it, or do a Mexican jump over it. We want to be totally sealed off from Mexico. If they’re worth their beans, they’ll be able to take a plane over here to visit, and become a citizen to live here.
And we have the Congress, President, Department of Homeland Security, etc. moving like molasses to thwart off this “Mexican Fire Ant” invasion. And if you know fire ants, you know they love slow sweet stuff. Read this:
From: http://commdocs.house.gov/committees/science/hsy28628.000/hsy28628_0f.htm
“On November 2, 2005, DHS announced the Secure Border Initiative (SBI), a multi-year plan to secure the Nation’s borders and reduce illegal immigration by installing state-of-the-art surveillance technologies along the border as well as by increasing the personnel dedicated to border security and alien detention and processing. A component of this plan is SBInet, a system to integrate the relevant technologies and personnel at the border. DHS plans to award a single large contract for this technology integration project by September 30, 2006. The FY07 budget request for SBInet was $100 million, and current estimates suggest that the SBInet program will eventually cost approximately $2.5 billion over five years. While the House and Senate FY07 appropriations bills allot DHS $115 and $132 million, respectively, to start on the SBInet, both bills require DHS to provide a strategic plan to Congress before most of the funding may be spent.”
And it very well could have. The article says that the delay is due to radar issues, which would not affect other aspects of the construction. I really don't see what all the fuss is about, a 1 week delay in any construction project is common, especially when the construction is high-tech. Glitch happens.

Coulda fooled me. What a circus.
IIRC, Hunter's law obviated many of these "necessities."
Why can’t they just roll a double line of barbed wire off a truck why they haggle about the fence.
Let me explain it to the morons! The "technical issues" are:
#1) They NEVER intended to build a fence........
#2) A fence would stop the supply of cheap illegal help for big multi national corporations who contribute money and all kinds of other goodies to the traitors in DC......
#3) They DON'T care about Americans........
#4) There are trade agreements and treaties signed in secret that have given our Sovereignty away!
I could go on, but why bother........
The fence will NEVER be built, until WE THE PEOPLE seize it from the DC traitors and make our Constitution the law of the land again......
Because all it would take is a cheap pair of wire cutters to make it an open border again. We are talking about a 1 week delay on the radar and I am sure other construction is going on while that problem is being fixed. I am also sure there are contractors on-site that will prevent people from sneaking across just by their presence, at least on that section of the fence.
They hired Boeing to build the fence? They are indeed a bunch of idiots. Are they going to study it, study how to build it, or build it. Just get on with it and build it. Fire the lawyers, get the bulldozers running and posts and wire coming. They can build the damn thing salt water to salt water in 100 days if Bush and Cherkoff would quit playing pocket pool.
They can’t do that because that would be building the fence and that is the last thing they want to do. They want to spend the money for the fence while not building the fence.
