LOL...the Canadian BP, who because they are unarmed run like scared rabbits, are absolutely worthless to the US in guarding our northern border. On our southern border, we have armed Mexican military guarding the drug smugglers and human smugglers on our side of the border. Nice work, Pres. Bush and HSS head Chertoff. You are pathetically inept at securing our borders and making our neighbors respect our sovereignty.
Outwardly, it appears so. Inwardly I'm sure President Bush is trying to balance hardline border security, with the delicate situation we have with Mexico as world oil and cement, and labor supplier, among other issues. We do not have all the facts, just the appearance, which I admit does not look good, but the President knows what would happen if we were to suddenly shut down border traffic in the name of homeland security, when their might be a way to preserve the delicate balance by convincing the Mexicans, that it isn't them we are shutting out. El Presidente of Mexico has to get his mind right about illegal border crossings first of all.
Well stated.
