Cripes.
If there is one Bush policy that raises hackles on conservatives, it's that one. Sometimes I think the Mexican president has incriminating photos of Bush in a vault somewhere.
Sometimes I wonder what would happen if we built a Israel-style wall across the border.
Israel is spending anywhere from about $2 to $4 million for each mile of fence. The Mexican border, I believe, is about 2,000 miles long. Total cost: $8 billion.
It is estimated that illegal immigration costs California alone almost $9 billion a year.
You do the math.
You'd have to do the whole border, obviously. A project like interstate highways.
Wonder what effect it would have on drug smuggling...
