If Jeb married an “illegal alien” she would automatically become a citizen, so that would be a moot point, which makes me doubt seriously any validity to the claim. Interesting angle though, and a new oen.

Leavitt, I will be reading your rant asap, but wish to point out that I believe the cost/benefit ratio, regardless of what it may actually be or is claimed to be, is NOT a factor that should be counted in any way.

Amnesty will be the beginning of the wave that will take this country down, and for a good primer on that, one should read this article here, which I will be covering shortly.

Alot of the immigration debate I’ve been reading about and listening to can be broken down into a few categories: ” Border security”, encompassing such ideas as putting the National Guard on the Mexican border, or building a wall, or hi-tech surveillance measures, to stop potential terrorists from entering through Mexico. The “amnesty or expell” debate, involving the fate of the estimated 10 million plus illegals in the USA. This one divides into several aspects to consider. The third category is the economic cost/benefit of illegal immigration, and the impact of any action taken to limit it. Finally is the crime category, with illegal immigrants comprising a majority of prisoners in many border state jails. Each of these categories relates to the others, to some degree.

–I delve into all of these topics in my latest LEAVWORLD rant, about Illegal Immigration. I implore you to go read it.

Cannot say if there is any truth to it, but did hear a caller to tallk radio say Jeb Bush married and illegal immigrant and that is why President Bush’s sympathy is with them and not national security.
Anybody know anything about this?
Rumor or true?

zhu…..thanks for the pics and the story. It’s a good start. If the criminal aliens that were vreaking into teh country every year all had a gun it would be considered an invasion and tehmilitary would stop it cold.

The border should not be a passive barrier, simply sitting there unwatched and unpatrolled while we hope that people don’t break the law…..it should be actively secured, patrolled and people should expect that if they sneak across it they will be caught and punished.

Seems others share your view. However, I respectfully disagree, still.

I reiterate that it is time to deploy the U.S. military along the border. A police force at the border will not be nearly as effective as the military, regardless of how “untied” their hands are, for police forces still have to consider the rules of policing, while the military gets true “carte blanche”, or freedom, to follow and carry out their lawful orders, and those orders should simply be: “Hold The Line”

According to an interview with a member of the Border Patrol, at least some are legit Mexican Army. He related that when they caught a group, they checked their id. They came back as real Army. Word came down from that they had to return the arms and vehicles to the suspects and release them immediately. Which was done. Some may be posing as MA, however, others are the real thing.

Note that many of these Mexican forces have been trained by the US in anti-drug operations/procedures.

It’s time to heavily arm the Border Patrol, triple their numbers, change their standing orders from “run and hide” to “stand your ground and shoot to kill”, and uncover every person along the way, to, and including Washington, that has thrown up hurdles against border defence and replace them. Lastly, find out what Fox has on Bush and get it out in the open. Money can’t explain the deference that Bush has given Fox.

Our Armed Forces are not a police force; they are a killing force that follow a totally different set of rules that does not belong on the border. Give the Border Patrol what they need and untie their hands. Can you say “carte blanche”? Reassess the situation in a year.

War with Mexico
Maybe we’re at war with the wrong country? Seems like the Mexican military is more of a threat to the U.S. than the insurgents in Iraq. President Bush, it’s time to declare war on Mexico!

We are being invaded nonetheless. It is time for the military to be deployed at the border.

“More likely drug smugglers dressed as Mexican soldiers.”

That is even more frightening.
