Border law gets Bush's signature
President pushes for GOP during Phoenix-area stop
Arizona Daily Star

PARADISE VALLEY — President Bush signed federal legislation here Wednesday that he says will help "protect the American people," in part, by tightening security on the U.S.-Mexican border.
The bill appropriates money to the Department of Homeland Security in a number of areas, but Bush's Arizona signing was meant to highlight its most high-profile element: illegal immigration.
Bush signed the bill shortly after telling those at a $500-a-person fundraiser, "If you want to make sure those on the front line of protecting you have the tools necessary to do so, you vote Republican for the safety of the United States of America." The fundraiser for Republican Rep. Rick Renzi took in $450,000.
The president accused some Democrats of putting national security at risk by voting against bills that would allow secret eavesdropping on phone calls and tough measures to interrogate prisoners to try to detect terror plots.
Democrats said Bush was just trying to distract from his failed management of the war on terror with his comments.
The border-security legislation, approved last month, provides $1.2 billion to fund 700 miles of fencing and barriers along the border, plus money for jails to detain illegal entrants and hire 1,500 more border agents.
"This legislation will give us better tools to enforce our immigration laws and to secure our southern border," he said. "This bill's going to make this country safer to all of our citizens."
With immigration the top issue for voters in Southern Arizona and high on the radar for voters nationally, the bill comes as the November midterm elections draw near.
"I understand full well that illegal immigration puts pressure on the public schools and hospitals," he said. "It strains state and local budgets. In some communities it increases crime."
The president, with Phoenix-area mountains in the background, was flanked by Sen. Jon Kyl, an author of the bill; Democratic Gov. Janet Napolitano; and Republican U.S. Reps. J.D. Hayworth, Trent Franks and Renzi.
Napolitano said the greatest benefit of the legislation is more federal funding, though she said it's unclear how much Arizona will receive.
"I think Congress is not done yet," she said. "They need to pass comprehensive immigration reform, and they can't just pass this bill and think their job is over. It's not. But it's a good start."
Bush and Napolitano both mentioned the need for a worker plan. Kyl said he would like to see that addressed in November or December.
But Kyl also stressed the importance of the fencing, which will be placed based on border traffic flow.
"it's not just fence . . ."
"It's not just fence, it's high-tech virtual techniques plus Border Patrol and roads so the Border Patrol can be where they need to be," said Kyl, who drafted key parts of the legislation, including a provision that criminalizes construction of a tunnel across an international border.
Of fencing, Napolitano said: "Fencing to me is something you use in conjunction with other things if it's really going to be effective," mentioning radar and lighting as key aspects.

If women can wear hats in the workplace, and men can't, isn't that discrimination? If some employers allow some employees to wear kufis indoors because of religion, and don't allow everyone the opportunity to wear them, isn't that discrimination?
I think everyone should be allowed to wear hats or kufis. Or nobody should be able to wear hats or kufis. That is the only way to stop this discrimination in the workplace, training environment, or any inside facility.
Please give your opinion and ask others what they think about it. If you have the guts, ask your Human Resource Department what is their policy on this issue?

Can it stop Trap Hole from activating? or does it just destroy the card and not stop the effect? or do I use it on a face down card to destroy it? It's quick play magic so I'm guessing it's for something. A Yu-Gi-Oh ruling site would GREATLY help. Thank you.

Subsidized programs like Garib Rath by railways and righting off loans by finance ministry are extravagant measures taken by governments based on ruling-party’s / ruling alliance’s ethics and keeping the potential vote-banks in mind.

Tax payer’s hard earned money is spent, mercilessly, out of whims and fancies of small groups of politicians and vested interests.

Such programs should be permitted for materializing only after acceptance by both the houses of parliament and signature of the President of India.

MPs should bring resolution in the parliament to permit subsidies of total amount exceeding Rs. 1,00,000/- only in the annual budget. However lesser amount of subsidies be passed by both the houses.

Let us know what our website visitors think about it?
