Geez Louise, All

Critics are welcomed...it makes me ponder.  But three-to-four weeks ago and several times before that I wrote to withdraw the National Guard and put a company of special forces or SEALS, or a brigade of rangers, or the 82nd or 101st Airmobile on the border.  Let them use all those gadgets to fix the enemy in Afghanistan to fix the border crossers.

Now, this will really slay you...is anyone talking about undocumented people from the Far East coming across or Anglos coming through the dense forest packing in drugs from Canada?

Several years ago I suggested getting the heck out of Iraq and putting the soldiers on the north and south borders to guard those borders.

And, I would also agree with this...you've been here undocumented for five years, we'll give you two months to apply for a work visa without consequences.

And, for all those who believe that is ok, as long as they paid taxes -- who has not paid taxes?  All American businesspersons are saints and have withheld Social Security, Medicare and income taxes...right?    (:>)
