Comments on: Bush Signs Border Fence Bill

Authorizes 700 Miles Of New Fencing On U.S.-Mexico Border

I'm not done - This fence is a boondoggle of the highest order - and with each of us holding over 250,000 of the national debt - we should be in the streets of DC stopping this pillage. You have been lied to, and you continue to be lied to unless you seek, recognize, and act on the truth when you see it. I am an ex-Republican, and am looking at forming a new political party called the "Party for Small Government". Anyone who wants to be involved in fixing this country - please let me know how we can start to change this before it's too late. A fence financed by the Chinese is not the answer...

I'm from NY, and I watched the planes hit the WTC, so to all of those who live elsewhere and think we have reason to spend more billions (which by the way, we don't have) on "security" -please keep your fear in perspective. The only people who suffer from the delusion that a fence in the desert will do anything to stop poor people from coming across (as most of our grandparents did) for a fair chance at life - are the most devout believers of the Bush administration. You have been hoodwinked by this man and his cronies - I have travelled in high circles, and I know these are not honest people. They have taken one of their impressionable sons, and convinced him that we are in a fight against Islam. None of them are well traveled, and most of them are cultural illiterates. Barbara and George H.W. were married in the Church nearest to where I currently live, and her family is largely still in the area. These are elitist American royals, who sent their sons to Andover and Yale despite (especially in George W's case) a general lack of academic prowess. The fact that he developed a drawl has more to do with their inability to cure his nagging speech impediments, than with his upbringing (which was entirely in the Northeast - really)

Waste of money, as usual per gw.

ozilot Thanks but no thanks for the history lesson. It has nothing to do with what is going on now. Security is what matters. And yes I am well aware what was done to the Indians,mexicans,blacks,jews and whoever else was screwed over by my so called people hundreds of years ago that we are still being punished for today. Maybe if everyone was taught less about who did what to whom or how aweful people were towards each other then maybe everyone would stop harboring such negetive feeling they have for one another

no-we keep the red states and let the blues merge with Canada if they like

[laurieleemoo]

i say give them miami and let the cubans and mexicans FIGHT over it.

[meboard]

Give then all the red stats and we in the blue states can merge with Canada.

You would think that both Jebb and Big W would have this all figured out after being border Govs. Hmmm, seems odd that they don't have a plan? They usually plan out every little detail...

[shingles1]

Can we give them Colorado Springs while we're at it?

[xenalily]

Hey ozilot I say let's be nice and give them Florida too that way the whole Bush family can stay together. :)
