US President George W Bush has signed a controversial bill into law that will pay for a 700-mile fence (1,125km) fence along the border with Mexico.
The barrier, equipped with hi-tech surveillance equipment, will be built in areas where many illegal immigrants cross over into the United States.
Mr Bush has also suggested a temporary guest worker programme to allow immigrants to work legally in the US.
But Republican congressmen have argued against the idea.
They said it would be an amnesty that would give illegal immigrants a route to citizenship....

I think Bush should be fenced out from the civilized world in my opinion, but I actually agree with him on this issue ( gasp!) There's way too many illegals flooding into this country on a daliy basis.

There's already a fence the length of the border. There's already a guestworker program.

It is amnesty. And if it happens, a second flood of illegal aliens will keep coming back. I am glad about the border security. Great post.
