#11  BH6, He has commented before about the need for a rel fence - the quote is "Enforcement begins at the border." He's been a strong advocate for the fence, and a critic of COngress dragging their feet about bulding what they ahve already put into law and budgeted money for.

#9  Still weak - no mention of a fence or a wall.

#8  This is an instance where fighting the symptoms will help cure the cause. Without the US as a wide open pressure relief valve, the Mexican government and economy will be faced to meet reality,or else implode.

#7  It's a good start. Still, as P2k notes, America needs to stop playing the role of this world's population dumping ground. Tyrannies and dictatorships that do not meet the needs of their people and instead export domestic troublemakers abroad should experience regime change. Mexico is one of those countries.

#3  Without illegal employment opportunities available, fewer illegal aliens will attempt to enter the country, and many of those illegally in the country now likely will return home

Word.

#2  Doesn't address the heart of the matter - the corrupt Mexican bureaucracy and Spanish blood ruling class. Still no incentive for them to stop dumping their unskilled, unemployed, unwanted meztisos and indios. It'll still be grip and grin at State when doing 'business as usual'.
