CHANGE MY DIAPER!!!

Secretary of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff on Monday blamed tightened security on the U.S.-Mexico border for increased violence there, and he said the border probably will not be fully secured until 2011, three years after President Bush leaves office.
"(Increased violence) is what typically happens when you start to enforce and make it harder to fight over the shrinking pie, so to speak, and who gets the best opportunity to exploit the additional space that's left," Chertoff said at a news conference at the U.S. Customs and Border Protection headquarters in Washington, D.C. on Monday.
"That's a good sign," he said. "The bad news is, it's created a lot of violence and created a lot of havoc, particularly in Mexico."
Chertoff added that quelling the violence will require working with the Mexican government - and millions of dollars from American taxpayers if Congress funds the Merida Initiative. The multi-year proposal would give Mexico $500 million and $50 million to Central America in 2008 to fight the drug cartels - another $450 million and $100 million respectively will be given for fiscal year 2009.

Easy for you to say Chertie. You won’t be there. Come to think of it, if you are out of the way, it actually could happen.
I dont know what J[ch]erk[t]off is smoking. he may be correct because most of the mexicans will be us citizens by then
Is Chertoff brain damaged?
CHANGE MY DIAPER!!!
Obama's lawless society won't have a need for border security.
McCain's amnesty will grant all of the criminals the right to stay here.
Either way, individual Americans had better utilize their Second Amendment rights to stock up while they still can.
McCain is lukewarm to the 2nd Amendment, and Obama is a Stalinist toward the concept of self-defense.
Either way, I don't see any type of true border security or immigration law for the foreseeable future.
It's up to the states, cities and individuals to defend themselves against the horde of criminal invaders, because the federal government doesn't give a rat's ear about us.
Chertoff does look like Skeletor now that you have juxtaposed them together.
Why did he lose all of that weight?
Good job! Bush and Congress failed America in this regard.
What. A. Dufus.
Maybe if we offered citizenship to illegals who join Border Patrol and receive bonuses for how little traffic passes through their assigned section of the border...
“”(Increased violence) is what typically happens when you start to enforce...”
Admission of guilt. Border Security is one of the major functions the Founders created the Fed for in the first place. There should have been enforcement all along. The Fed reniged on there responsibility.
Yeah.....sure it will.....there goes $1.1 BILLION of our tax dollars RIGHT DOWN THE TOILET !
Why does McCain receive lukewarm grades on the 2nd Amendment, then?
Gunowners of America gave him an "F-"
What's the deal?

Can’t remember the last time I got a magazine or newsletter from GOA so don’t know their position.
There, fixed it.
Jerkoff doing what he was hired to do: Ignore the illegal invasion problem and lie to the public.
“(Increased violence) is what typically happens when you start to enforce and make it harder to fight over the shrinking pie, so to speak, and who gets the best opportunity to exploit the additional space that’s left,”
I blame the corrupt Mexican government, the scum who are actually doing the killing and the US government for not securing our border over the last decades.

CHERTOFF LEARNED NOTHING FROM HISTORY
THIS WAS SAID IN 1986 TOO!!!
IN 1986 THEY SAID THE BORDER WOULD BE SECURE BY THE END OF THE DECADE.
CHERTOFF THINKS PEOPLE ARE THAT STUPID.
Chertoff must be using vitural logic to go with his virtual fence.
And Duncan Hunter would have got it done in just a few months!!!!!!!!!!!
Chertoff supposedly signing off on this...
..Bush saying employers (of illegals) will be targeted...
...isn't it lovely what they say they can accomplish when they have little or no power left.
“Increased violence) is what typically happens when you start to enforce...””
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.................
Says it all ..South Carolina voting today for Senator
Graham’s seat in primary..will the gay open borders gang of 14 win?? If so it tells us how damaged our system is.
IF NOT it will send a Major message to McCain..lets all pray for Graham’s defeat.
Chertoff was a great Bush appointment. Remember it’s his job to make America look like an uninviting target to our enemies. He’s one creepy looking dude to people who evaluating our vulnerability. I’m saying he’s a good fit for the job in a lot of ways. Who was the guy before him, the big jocular feller? Not a good choice.
Also, interestingly, a couple of border cities were listed in the top 10 real estate markets. El Paso and McAllen made the list based on real estate transaction data from the most recent polling. Not sure what it means or if the border enforcement is already having that sort of salutory effect.
?
It is a bunch of bull.
You Did a Hell of a Job, Mikey
It's nonsense that there aren't enough workers to build the wall. Does anyone remember a few decades ago when thousands of men went voluntarily to Alaska to work on the Alaskan Pipeline?
Won't matter one bit. Little Juan spouted a load of crap about "learning his lesson" in regards to amnesty for illegal aliens and he was lying his azz off. The defeat of the amnesty bill was one of the biggest smackdown of politicians by the American public in history. But little Juan is right back on the side of the illegals AGAIN in his open support for amnesty.
After adjusting his immigration stance when his comprehensive immigration bill died last summer, John McCain, now with the Republican nomination in hand, has once again ruffled conservative feathers on the immigration issue by returning to the position that almost stopped his campaign dead in its tracks.
Mr. McCain joined California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger last week in supporting a "comprehensive" immigration plan that would address the problem "in a humane and compassionate fashion."
"Sen. [Edward] Kennedy and I tried very hard to get immigration reform, a comprehensive plan, through the Congress of the United States," Mr. McCain stated. "We must make it a top agenda item."

The illegals may be getting caught in the cross fire but Chertoff is one doofus. Lately, some of the people Bush has surrounded himself with have turned out to be incompetent buffoons.
Absolutely, there are so many construction workers out of work right now, they’d do a voluntary temporary relocation to help build that sucker, thereby earning some money now and securing their future, as there will be less illegals later to steal their jobs!
Put out a general call to American citizens to help build the fence....
..and see what response you get!!!!!
Shoot, as a woman maybe I don't have much brawn, but I would go down and carry water if need be...
..make lunches...
...serve coffee and donuts!!
And anyone who believes that, I’ve got some swampland in Florida to sell you.
We the people have the will, it’s those we’ve elected to office who deceive us and let us down. Except for the legal property ramifications we’d run in to, I’d bet we could get the job done in short order.
Prayer said...please let us know the outcome of today's primary!
Perfect ... Thanks!!!
Egads, I just try not to read about McCain’s lack of substance, my blood pressure would explose if I stop to think about either of these scum bag candidates in the WH.
I guess I am voting NObama...
>>>>Chertoff doesn’t get it.
Oh I think he does.
Every pronouncement he’d ever made about the fence has been an exercise in evasion and dissimulation.
If you look carefully at the numbers, almost NOTHING has actually been built.
The 700-mile Alaska Pipeline was built in three years start to finish at a cost of about $25 billion in 2006 dollars.
>>”And Duncan Hunter would have got it done in just a few months!!!!!!!!!!!”<<
Beat me to it. How did we end up with McLame as our nominee?
You might ask how McCain is the nominee when last July his name was mud...
I remember the polls here at FR where McCain was in the bottom .02% and was out of money. It is clearly evident that someone took over the entire election process and got their man in. I do know that Soros donated to his cause.
I fear for the future of our country with either nominee (McLame or Osamabama) in office.
We can no longer speak with our vote, that is lost forever unless we revolt and start over again. We have once again been offered the choice of the lesser of two evils. Not this time for me. Twice for Bush is enough. I would not cast my vote for McPain at gunpoint.
The Lame one is running behind the MUSLIM in the most recent polls. I’ll bet he is wishing he didn’t cast his Conservative base aside for the likes of Feinstien, Kennedy and the rest of the libs he has cuddled up to lately.
Let me know when the revolution to take back our country begins.
The larger question is this: how is it that our great and wonderful country found itself with these three candidates for President: the wife of a draft dodging, impeached, accused rapist of a former president, who belongs in federal prison for her many misdeeds; a hate-America Muslim who has refused to say the Pledge of Allegiance or wear the American flag pin; and a liberal Republican NWO internationalist who attacked the First Amendment and about whom many unanswered questions still exist concerning his Viet Nam experience?
This is the best our system has to offer? These three losers?
Something is drastically wrong here, no doubt about it.
"We can no longer speak with our vote, that is lost forever unless we revolt and start over again." No longer quite so unthinkable.
....there goes $1.1 BILLION of our tax dollars RIGHT DOWN THE TOILET !

Yes, into the pockets of Mexico’s corrupt oligarchs.
What I don't understand is how different the NRA and GOA are.
2nd Amendment rights are 2nd Amendment rights, yet both organizations give McCain radically different reviews.
Success will fix this!
Once our Southern border is truly secured, the drug cartels and their violence will leave Northern Mexico since they know that they and their product are not going to get across the border into the USA.
So, which candidate is going to finish it: McCain or Obama?
You know the answer as well as I do: neither.
Right on the money Red !
