Border fence will spare Brownsville park

If we enact the Federal SAVE ACT (H.R.4088) enforcement only law. Millions of illegal aliens will leave by self-deportation. ATTRITION! No job, they will leave of their own accord. Only anti-American groups and Liberal-Democrat-Socialists are stopping this law. ASK THEM WHY? www.numbersusa.com have the uncensored truth? IT'S YOUR FAMILIES FUTURE. DEPORTATION OR OVERPOPULATION. IF WE DON'T STOP IT NOW, THEY WILL KEEP COMING..

Grand Theft Nation continues.

Isn't his the fence that Obama has so highly touted? What will be his next solution?

Sick and tired of those illegal immigrants getting into our state and country. We are taxed to the max with their medical bills, their robberies, their killings, their education, their driving without licenses and/or insurance. Will our congress finally come up with a solution to man the borders at every area.

We must make all efforts to invest in Mexico and South America in general. It will of course take years to see returns, but such investment will help these economically weak lands, build a real middle class and only then, with healthier and stronger economies over there, shall the emigration ever wane. In searching for the ultimate cheapest labor and in reality the most profitable margins for our business conglomerates, we have sent our often critical industries overseas to Asia. Now we are at their mercy for prices of important commodities such as steel and not surprisingly, the prices have climbed up, reaping great profit for others, instead. Who has missiles with atomic warheads pointed at America but the ever growing giant and war machine that is China. We can help the peaceful Christian people in SA create stronger sugar production for our technologies to create the hydrogen which is expected to power our vehicles in about 10 years. Them we can kiss the OPEC goodbye!

The problem is in the interior of the U.S. Stop employing illegal aliens and they will stop coming. As long as employers hire them they will come , fence or no fence.

If McCain is elected there will be no fence. On MSNBC yesterday, Mr. McCain said if he were president he would still sign into law the bill he and Mr. Kennedy tried to pass last year, but said Congress won't send him that version. Does anyone want to bet on this one? He would sign the McCain Kennedy Shamnesty bill into law. Must be why Mr. Mexico first Juan Hernandez joined McCain’s campaign , Choose wisely

Excuse me, didn't the supreme court rule that the state and federal governments can take and individuals land even for economic development. They are taking land in East Texas away from ranchers for the super highway from Mexico to Canada and no one is stopping them.

If GWB sign it he will help swear in a Dem in 09. Not that he cares.

very good point, those pro-amnesty or illegal immigration will try to come up with anything to keep the flow of illegals coming in. They tried to pull on the notion that a fence would hurt the environment, like they are really concerned !! No they just don't want the fence to surface. However, Chertoff put a good point across in which it is harder on the environment to continue to have traffic degrade the area along with other facts. So now what? What are the pros going to say now? Sounds to me that thought they had a point to stand on and in reality they don't. Build the fence and force migrating to this nation to be done right!!

Those worried about "environmental damage" should read Tim Cahill's excellent article on Organ Pipe NM in National Geographic Adventure. Organ Pipe - and nearby Cabeza Prieta - have been TRASHED thanks to a never ending stampede of illegal aliens through sensitive environmental areas. It's time that environmentalists decide which is more important - their commitment to environmentalism or their commitment to Leftism.

I live less than 10 miles up from the border in the tip of Texas, and one important aspect of the Immigration Bill proposals to build a fence along the border that I have not seen discussed is the impact of 2005’s Real ID Act. To promote the creation of fencing through a nature preserve near San Diego, a provision was included that reads, “Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Secretary of Homeland Security shall have the authority to waive all legal requirements such Secretary, in such Secretary’s sole discretion, determines necessary to ensure expeditious construction of the barriers and roads under this section.” This means that if the House / Senate conference committee approves construction of a continuous wall from Laredo to Brownsville, Secretary Chertoff is instructed to ignore any law that may stand in the way. If a private landowner does not like the compensation offered for his property, Homeland Security can just take it. If the Sabal Palm Audubon Sanctuary do
