It doesn't mater how many dirty bombs might be ready to go off."<br /><br />True enough, but the bottom line is that the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 has already addressed the problem of employers who hire illegal aliens, complete with employer sanctions.<br /><br />The problem is one of demanding the government enforce the laws already on the books. That whole equal protection (and application) under the law thang.<br /><br />Regarding border security. In 52 B.C. Julius Caesar ordered his troops to construct 18 kilometers of 4 meter high fortifications around Alesia. This construction, known as a circumvallation was completed in approximately three weeks. During the construction, some of the Gauls in Alesia escaped the Roman siege in an effort to rally others to aid Alesia.<br /><br />Caesar responded by having his troops build a second outer fortification that was identical to the first in design and extended for ≈ 21 kilometers.<br /><br />Caesar and the Romans did this by hand, in the land of the Gauls, in approximately 52 B.C. Yet the United States can not muster the resolve to secure her borders.<br /><br />-Anonymous IIIdirectorbluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00205733284944340787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034478.post-42124497128668215162011-01-29T11:26:45.194-05:002011-01-29T11:26:45.194-05:00@AnonIII - wasn't me.

It did <i>not</i> contain profanity or remarks that might offend polite society. It did contain three hotlinks which were cited to support the comment.<br /><br />Even though the statement below the comment window say that anchor is a usable tag, I have to ask, did the hotlinks, or number of hotlinks, cause the comments from <i>Anonymous III</i> to be blocked? <br /><br />Thanks for your time.<br /><br />Anonymous IIIAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034478.post-59069837049030856532011-01-28T17:10:30.107-05:002011-01-28T17:10:30.107-05:00"as secure as it's ever been" or eve..."as secure as it's ever been" or even "more secure than it's ever been" and <br />"the border is not secure" are not necessarily contradictory statements.<br /><br />Both statements, in fact, are probably true. The problem is that the first set (as secure or more secure) is irrelevant. <br /><br />The fact that the border may be "as secure" doesn't matter if in fact it is _not_ secure.<br /><br />If your boat is sinking because it's taking on 100 gallons of water per minute, fixing something so that it is only taking on 50 gallons per minute may be an improvement, but it doesn't mean your boat is not still sinking.sueknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034478.post-79588693635036166952011-01-27T20:27:56.629-05:002011-01-27T20:27:56.629-05:00As long as fast food restaurants, food processing ...As long as fast food restaurants, food processing plants, and corporate builders can make profits from the cheap labor, provided by illegals, the borders will never be closed.
