House Republicans have been particularly vocal and responsive about the need to first protect our borders and they passed a bill to do just that. The Senate, on the other hand, had no such intention and the Senate bill on illegal immigration was a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedustininmansociety.com\/blog\/?p=157\">total capitulation to illegal immigrants <\/a>that even proposed amnesty for law-breakers. <\/p>\n<p>The House and Senate took up appropriation bills for Homeland Security in committee \u2018to resolve the differences\u2019 and both the House and Senate approved a \u2018compromise\u2019 appropriation bill with an apparent $1.2 billion for a \u201cborder fence\u201d which was sent to the White House. With great fanfare, the President signed the bill and border protection advocates were told that the border fence financed by the appropriation bill would protect our Mexican border. <\/p>\n<p>Now, having mollified conservative critics with \u2018border protection first,\u2019 Congress and the president consider themselves free to deal with illegal immigration as they wanted to in the first place without opposition by those who want to protect our borders before addressing the problem of illegal immigration. Unfortunately, the claim of border protection beginning with the appropriation of over one billion dollars allegedly for that purpose is just a <a href=\"http:\/\/michellemalkin.com\/archives\/004840.htm\">big hoax.<\/a> The public scam is even worse than described; the law funding the \u2018border fence\u2019 provides a five-year term for completion, not the 18 months <a href=\"http:\/\/images.google.com\/images?q=twin+towers+&#038;hl=en&#038;btnG=Search+Images\">Homeland Security officials <\/a>are mandated to gain \u201coperational control\u201d of the border.<\/p>\n<p>There is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chronwatch.com\/content\/contentDisplay.asp?aid=24197&#038;catcode=13\">more&#8230;.<\/a>      <strong>But, for those who still don&#8217;t get it&#8230;the plan is for open borders and a <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtontimes.com\/national\/20040927-012753-6418r.htm\">free flow of goods and people.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mexican Border Fence Hoax Written by Vincent Gioia ChronWatch.com Sunday, October 08, 2006 Many of us have insisted that Congress address border protection before dealing with illegal aliens in our midst.
