BUSH SPEECH FOLLOW UP

I am limited on time tonight because of other commitments but did want to take a moment and express my disgust concerning the after math of the President's speech last night. As I mentioned there were some good thoughts in the speech, the idea of enforcement of employers employing illegals and the increased border security including the National Guard, that was all but as I mentioned it was a start. Though Bush gave the idea that the Guard would not be involved with actual security but as back up, in a interview that I heard today with Cheney he expressed that the Guard would rotate at the border as part of their continued training exercises and would participate in border control and security. If this is the plan then it does have its merits. Despite that piece of somewhat good news following the speech what happened in the Senate proved once again that the most important aspect of the illegal problem which is border security is NOT a priority with the Congress. I had hoped and stated as such at the end of last evenings post that when Congress addressed this after the President's speech then they would put some teeth into the legislation and secure the borders and enforce the law. Their first opportunity to do so was today when legislation was proposed to place all other aspects of the illegals debate in the back ground and to immediately secure the border without a temporary worker program, which is exactly what needs to take place. Without hesitation and with a voice vote only this proposal was quickly shot down stating that border security could not happen without temporary worker programs. Once again Congress shows that they have NO backbone nor the will to secure our borders! This debate is proving that especially on this issue what we the people, who have hired those in Washington, not longer have a say in our government. It would seem that the time has come for us to fire those who are no longer interested in representing the people of the United States!
