WASHINGTON – Sen. John Cornyn, a Texas Republican and key liaison to the White House on immigration, said Tuesday that 700 miles of fencing approved by Congress will probably not be built because of a lack of money and other practical considerations.<\/p>\n

“It’s one thing to authorize. It’s another thing to actually appropriate the money and do it,” he told reporters.
\nThere’s different kinds of fencing … there’s the old fence post and barbed wire, and then there’s the virtual fence which is a combination of physical barriers, people, and technology and I think, in the end, that will probably be how this is addressed,” he said.<\/p>\n

Cornyn added that 700 miles of fencing would not solve the problem of illegal immigration because it would still leave about 1,300 miles of unfenced border.<\/p>\n

“I’m not sure that’s the most practical use of that money,” he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Cornyn doesn’t coment on fencing the entire border with third world Mexico…or that Disneyland is more secure than our children’s nation.<\/a>
