I searched but did not see a thread already open for tonights speech. I think this is the most important speech the President will probably make for the remainder of his term.
Mod Note:
This could turn into a whack-a-troll thread. All immigration trolls that would like to participate should post here. It'll be interesting to see if we mods can whack the trolls faster than they can sign up new accounts.

Ask Zogby.
Also, demographic data indicates about 50% of our population stems from the original, pre-Revolutionary War settlers.
Not to illegals we're not..
We "welcome" those that OBEY THE LAW and immigrate Legallly..
With a moat with FL gators.
Oh boy, let's spend more money - politician's answer to everything. Why not just build a fence and back it up with technology and patrols?
Oh, wow!
by 2008! we'll have 6000 new border agents. yes, I'm convinced you want to secure our borders sir.

I don't here him talking walls, just technical things to watch them cross is all.
Secure does not equal just watching.
LOL!
You'd think they would get a hint that they are illegal by the fact that they can't speak english.
What is the matter with having real fences? We built a 23 mile long fence below San Diego on the border. It has worked. A virtual fence stops no one. It just alerts the BP that people are coming in. The BP agents must then apprehend the people coming in. They must be detained and processed legally. That takes time and money. If they can't get in here in the first place, you don't need detention centers, judges, or exposing BP agents to possible injury in the apprehension process.
We have a virtual fence because it can be taken down much easier and faster. How gullible do these politics think we are? If we don't build more physical barriers, we are really not serious about border security.
"If border control is so "urgent", why's he just getting around to it now?"
Because he urgently needs a coverstory because Amnesty+ doesn't look like it's going to go through.
FL gators.......good idea.
"If border control is so "urgent", why's he just getting around to it now?"
I thought the same thing.
And now he just said it a second time.
It must be *really* urgent.
bump for review..
I see....National Guard until the Virtual Cameras, new roads and fences are built.
Um, because it's not important to him or Fox?
But we have "the best technology in the world!"
He just mentioned fences.
I hear good things but demand them before the outrageous massive amnesty kicks in. In short. GW is full of it until he proves otherwise. He has no credibility on illegal immigration
