“Then please don’t support anyone who leaves our borders free and open no matter what they claim about the WOT. We are being invaded there and most of the pols have zero concern over that.”
Who said I was? ;-)
Personally, I’d like to see the border closed not tomorrow, not today, but yesterday. However, none of the pols currently in office seem to actually have the guts to do it. Hopefully, the nominees of both parties will, but I have my doubts.
Regardless, though, the global war against Islamofasicsm is my first priority.
What makes you think Rudy is the only one capable of fighting this WOT? If we wind up with a democrat controlled Congress his hands will be tied on this issue anyway.
That’s the thing. Anyone can talk a good game. If you are a results-oriented person, you want to see someone in the WH who has made things happen. Someone with a track record of wrestling with the issues and getting results.
Didn’t say you were bud :)
But the war on terror is just as important on that border as it is overseas. We cannot fight them over there and ignore the fact that they are infiltrating our country over here.
When it comes to the border, Duncan Hunter has the best pedigree in this area, so to speak.
He pushed for the bill that led to the construction of the big doublefence between San Diego and Tijuana. Crime in San Diego fell over 50%, while the incoming flow of drugs and illegals plummeted by more than 90%.
Hunter also coauthored the bill that would extend that same fence for 800 miles along the smugglers’ routes at the borders of Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas.
To date, only two miles of that fence have been built. Needless to say, Hunter is not pleased with the Administration’s lack of progress here.
So when it comes to guts, Hunter’s got plenty.
There is only one candidate qualified to be CIC for these times who will also seal the border like a bank vault. Duncan Hunter
