US may not be able to meet timetable to secure border. DUH.

@ 09:39 PM (9 months, 3 days ago)

As we know, our government has no intentions of securing the border. Part of the Bush plan was to allow an additional 400-500 thousand into the country, "That will take pressure off the border." MY ASS! Also, I've yet to hear anyone address the problem of visa overstays and they make up about 40% of our illegal alien population.

Why the scam?

The United States may be unable to meet its timetable for essentially stopping illegal immigration across its border with Mexico by 2011, a Bush administration official told Congress on Thursday.

Ralph Basham, commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, said the government was working to meet the target set in November 2005 of having "operational control" of U.S. borders within five years.

But he said the goal of the so-called Secure Border Initiative was based in part upon assumptions, such as passage of comprehensive immigration reforms, that have not been met.

"We're going to be pushing to meet those goals ... but I cannot with any assurance tell you right now that we'll meet them," he said. NEVER going to happen. If this government wanted to secure that border it could be done muy pronto. All they're doing is talk and stall.
