#4 On this one Bush can't hide, nor the governors of the states and administrators of the cities who turn a blind eye to the illegal issue. They are the problem. You can hide their illegal status but you can't hide their crimes -

# Ninety-five percent of warrants for murder in Los Angeles, Calif. are for illegal aliens.

# Eighty-three percent of warrants for murder in Phoenix, Ariz. are for illegal aliens.

# Eighty-six percent of warrants for murder in Albuquerque, N.M., are for illegal aliens.

# Seventy-five percent of people on the "Most Wanted" list in Los Angeles, Phoenix, and Albuquerque are illegal aliens.

# Twenty-five percent of all inmates in California detention centers are Mexican nationals who are here illegally.

# Forty percent of all inmates in Arizona detention centers are Mexican nationals here illegally.

# Forty-eight percent of all inmates in New Mexico detention centers are Mexican nationals here illegally.

# Twenty-nine percent (630,000) convicted illegal alien felons occupy our state and federal prisons at a cost of $1.6 billion annually.

# More than 53 percent of burglaries in California, New Mexico, Nevada, Arizona, and Texas are perpetrated by illegal aliens.

# More than half of all gang members in Los Angeles are illegal aliens from south of the border.

# More than 70 percent of all cars stolen in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, and California are stolen by illegals.

# Forty-seven percent of drivers stopped by police in California have no license, insurance, or registration; and of that 47 percent, 92 percent are illegal aliens.

# Sixty-three percent of stopped drivers in Arizona have no license, insurance, or registration for the vehicle. Of that 63 percent, 97 percent are illegal aliens.

# Sixty-six percent of stopped drivers in New Mexico have no license, insurance, or registration; and of that 66 percent, 98 percent are illegals.

You ignore the problem and it bites you.

#5 The numbers come amid heightened criticism of the federal government from many police chiefs and state law enforcement officials, who complain that the Bush administration has retreated from fighting traditional crime in favor of combating terrorism and protecting homeland security.

'T'ain't the Fed's job to fight "traditional crime". That's the job of states and localities.

#6 Who will the liberals blame once Bush is gone?

Oh ya, this type of story will vanish from the papers....

Remember, if it ain't reported by the MSM, it ain't real news!

#8 'T'ain't the Fed's job to fight "traditional crime". That's the job of states and localities.

It has been the Feds' failure to control the border that has depleted states' funding for law enforcement. Also, many of our Guard are also in law enforcement & security jobs that removes them from service when deployed overseas. Most of the increased violent crime is tied to drug use and trafficking, and the increased interdictions a factor. Rather than blame Bush, they should probably be congratulated for tackling the problem everyone else has avoided previously.

#9 true, the bill for arrests, incarceration and judicial action on illegals, along with health care, and education should be a Fed responsibility, with each American told what their share of that bill is. When that number gets published, you'll see a tide turn
