Israel's border is much, much smaller, and they spend a tremendous
amount on border security.

As does getting drunk. Do you want a return of prohibition too?

Nice try but there has been too much time that has passed. You will
forever be known as they guy who wants a seperate waiting room at the ER
so that you don't have be offended by the smells of the masses.

Is that what Obama is doing. I would never have guessed that the
purposeful destruction of the US economy was an effort to stop illegal
immigration. Does Obama know he is working towards getting rid of a
staunch Democrat voting block.

Look at how well the US government's plan worked for oil spills in the
Gulf of Mexico? A plan that has been on the books since 1994 and when it
was time to execute the plan they guy who should have been doing it
didn't bother to cancel his white-water rafting trip in the Grand
Canyon. I sure hope you don't need that life saving surgery when your
doctor has a tee time.

Don't get hung up on the illegal aliens from Mexicon, we don't want the
illegal aliens from Canada either and they often look just like us. In
fact we don't want illegal aliens from anywhere.

What does Canada do to illegal aliens? Just throw their hands up and say
oh well?

As are the Republicans.

You see Bert, being a politician is expensive. Re-election campaigns
cost millions of dollars. So politicians, Democrat and Republican both,
are always looking for campaign contributions. In exchange for these
contributions, they do favors for their contributors.

It's almost like it doesn't matter which party is in power, because big
banking, big oil (BP) and Goldman Sachs are happy to bribe whoever
happens to be in office.

So ends our discussion of the blindingly obvious.
