Instead of the Drug thugs moving drugs could it be just as easy for terrorist to enter bringing say a nuclear device?
While much attention has been given to national security threats on public lands along the southern border, similar problems also exist along the U.S. northern border. As the longest contiguous border in North America, over 1,000 miles of the U.S.-Canada border are on federal land. In most places, it is delineated by no more than a ditch or clear-cut through a forest and touches 13 states (not including Alaska), 12 National Parks and 4 Indian reservations.
Unfortunately, much like the southern border, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and U.S. Border Patrol are frequently unable to effectively monitor this land due to environmental regulations
now we pay 60% of every dollar we earn in some form of tax or another...does nobody see anything wrong with this??
I get in anyones face with this fact, especially those who run around wearing their American Flags so proudly....the sheeple are still to comfy in their big screen air conditioned lives to do anything about it.
Itll be more lies, more empty promises coming from that side of the table, but after the so called Elections, things will only continue in the current direction.
They should have left the denial of unemployment extention in place, but Obama knows that when those 11 million people run out of food, they will band together finally, and start the only thing that will turn this country around!!!

Exactly.
Obummer's plan is not any immigration reform I want. Our borders should be closed until they get their heads out of their ......... and make them secure. I'm tired of paying for all the illegals sitting in hospital emergency rooms getting medical care plus paying for my own to the tune of $1,100 per month. What's wrong with this picture??????????

The Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency expects to deport about 400,000 people this fiscal year, nearly 10 percent above the Bush administration's 2008 total and 25 percent more than were deported in 2007. The pace of company audits has roughly quadrupled since President George W. Bush's final year in office.
Deportation Increases Under Obama
Give the man SOME credit guys!
There are currently more Border Patrol agents "than ever before in the history of this country." PolitiFact has noted that Obama has been "increasing the number of border patrol officers." Indeed, in a July 22 hearing of the House Committee on Homeland Security, Michael Fisher, Chief of the U.S. Border Patrol, stated, "Currently we have over 20,000 Border Patrol agents nationwide, more than ever before in the history of the country." A Customs and Border Protection document states that the 2010 budget included $19.4 million for 123 new Border Patrol agents and support staff. The Obama administration's 2011 budget states, "An increase of $44.8M is requested to fund 318 Custom and Border Protection Officers FTEs [Full-Time Equivalent] within the Office of Field Operations and 71 support FTEs for CBP." From the Arizona Republic:
FACTSNEWS NOT FAKENEWS
Why do you guys hate this man so much? Here is your real problem. The GOP doesn't want immigration reform because it's another win for Obama.
Sen. Lindsey Graham, the sole Republican working on a bill to legalize illegal immigrants, in effect put the bill on the shelf on Tuesday, saying that a debate now would destroy any prospects for passage and that the issue needs to wait until 2012.
Graham thumbs nose at AZ and the American people.

No, it is not true. It's perhaps the most illogical theory I've heard yet. If anyone is starting any kind of racial tension, it's Arizona and that poor excuse for a Bill they passed.

Really? So Fox News is innocent of the race card when they made up the Black Panthers claiming they're going to "kill cracker babies" and such?
Huh, good job. I was going to suggest to you to stay on topic and not to derail...but...this is mainly about angry white people complaining about non english speaking folks being in their country. So that'd be silly of me to suggest such a thought.
Cheers.
