#1 You keep using that work won't. I do not think it means what you think it means.

#2 That's a pretty damned smug pronouncement for a bunch of two-bit corrupt dictators. Let's prove them wrong, shall we?

#3 If it's so certain to be useless and unworkable, then why are you scumbags so afraid of it? FOAD, Mexico. I'd like to see us shoot every illegal that comes across the border and throw the wounded/dead bodies back on your side--just like you do with Guatemala. You Mexes are lying, hypocritical bastards and the sooner we break relations with you, close the border, and let you stew in your own piss, the better.

#4 There is no money to build it, so it won't be built," Aguilar

We'll cut aid to Mexico and Pakistan and spend the leftovers here at home.

#5 I don't think they'll actually build it either. They passed it and gained themselves two years for some other issue to come up and distract us rubes.

#6 not a chance, and the desert portion can easily be a virtual detection/apprehend/ship their ass back region. A solid triple fence is NOT necessary, sea to gulf. The Mexicans are sure getting uppity about something that will never get built, huh?

#9 Catch and release guts any of the border control efforts. Until it is made massively unprofitable to smuggle cheap labor across the border, then nothing will happen. (BTW, I have nothing against the individual workers other than their flouting of our laws. The ones that I have inevitably come in contact with seem to be good people except for the fact they shouldn't be here.)
