The President's New Clothes

OK, to begin with, you don't really we actually sat thru that, do you? We have much better ways of wasting out time. Thanks, though, to Neal Boortz for providing a synopsis.

There seem to be several problems with what the President tried to foist off on us as a "plan".

First and foremost, there is no sincere intent to secure the borders. This is sine qua non to resolving the current situation. Oh, he'll send some unarmed troops down there to push papers and sharpen pencils, but there won't be any increase in detentions or prevention of illegal crossings. It'll all be for show.

Secondly, in typical fashion for politicans, the President is trying to be all things to all people. This is insane. Pick a stance and have the guts to back it up. In this case, the correct stance to take is to live up to his oath of office and defend the United States from an invading force.

Thirdly, why shouldn't the United States militarize its southern border? Mexico has militarized its northern border.

There is, of course, no need for the "mass deportations" that proponents of illegal immigration are continually ranting about. Just take away the incentives for the illegals to come here and stay here, and they'll go home on their own. Problem solved.

And "incentives" = welfare state!
These bastards are getting welfare, Social Security, SSI, food stamps & everything else and working under the table while they live stacked on top of eachother like inbred hilltrash, then sending the jack back to Rome via Mexico.
Bring our battle-hardened troops home and put them on the border...Armed!
