In fact, I’d build a double wall with a road inbetween. I’d dig the second wall 10 feet into the ground too.

The British and Irish had helicopter patrols, army watch towers, machine gun posts, army patrols, walls, electonic survilance, road blocks you name it is was on the border in greater density then America will be able to muster on the Mexican border and it stopped very little terrorists.

The British have more troops in Northern Ireland then they have in Iraq and they have scaled back the troops in Northern Ireland dramatically.

Talking about any immigration “reform” (especially amnesty) before doing something about the illegal inflow of immigrants is like pissing in the wind, to borrow a phrase from the French.

We have both the technology and ability to effectively seal the border. If anyone argues that we can’t, wise up. If you can see your neighbor’s backyard via Google Earth just for shits and giggles, you can bet the advanced technology is available to monitor and alert illegal traffic along our open borders. We’re not talking about inspecting concealed cargo, we’re talking about humans running across the desert.

Until politicians get serious about the problem, talking about solutions is futile. And Sen. John McCain should take a long ride with Sen. Kennedy.

This requirement that they have continuous employment sounds like near slavery. Imagine an employer having the ability to hold the threat of deportation over any employee.

Krauthammer’s plan is impressive in how it gives a tolerable way for illegal immigrants to accept a wall to stop future immigration.

The Senate’s plan is rife with problems. If implemented it will be abused. Under our plan, all illegal aliens are treated equally and Congress predetermines how many can stay.
