Are you sure?

We already have legislation that says we can build 854 miles from California to Texas.

Duncan Hunter says that they are building it at a snails place. He says that there is trouble with funding it.

If we have a serious threat out there, then why are going at a snails pace?

Bush and Chertoff have no intention of securing the borders. That was obvious years ago. When the fence bill passed, I stated that same day that it would never be built. I got flamed, but I was right.

Everything goes at a snails pace, these days. Haven't you noticed? There is no urgency that keeps the lawyers from tying everything up in court arguing about environmental impact studies and animal migration patterns. The WTC is still a hole in the ground and Gitmo detainess await trial while the lawyers file endless suits about everything they can dream up. Then there are disputes with Mexico over where the border is.

This is all going on over every mile in an atmosphere that is corrupt and hostile to the fence. If the people who live along the border had wanted a fence, they would have built one, themselves. Where they don't, they just gum up the works and have many activists to help them do it.
