MEXICO CITY - U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said Friday that Mexico and the United States need to secure their common border with a "comprehensive" Mexican guest worker and illegal immigration amnesty plan, before Congress approves an immigration accord. He acknowledged that focusing on security puts "horrible pressure on the Border Patrol," but said Americans must be convinced that the border is safe before they back a plan to grant more immigrants legal passage to the U.S<<
1. Good.
2. What the heck changed?
3. Does he have his boss, the President's, approval?


I think Chertoff's teleprompter must have skipped a few lines, I've inserted them, this should clear up the confusion.

Ya....Homeland Security failed miserably on a report recently from a committee who checks their work. In the mean time....he's in Mexico giving speeches about helping Mexico improve their economy......who's side is he on anyway? Since when is it his job as head of Homeland Security to be talking economics in a foreign country?

My opinion is that Chertoff needs to see first hand what illegals have done within the United States towns across America have had to live thru. Talk to some of the police officers that have been killed recently by the Mexican gangs that are now within the United States borders.

Considering the Mexican governments stand on illegals within their own borders - his words echo from the emptiness of anything that has real meaning and substance. A total double standard.

Chertoff is an incompetent idiot. He couldn't administer FEMA and let New Orleans and other Katrina people live in hell.... He doesn't have the intellect, the skills, the knowledge to be in the position he holds. As long as he is in charge, the "illegals" don't have anything to worry about.

All one has to do is listen to him.....he must have gone to the George Bush educational facility - they are just about on the same mental level....however, I do think Chertoff can find his left ear - unlike Mr. Bush.

People don't seem to think that this, illegal immigration and pourous border during a time of war stuff, makes any sense. It doesn't. Unless you throw in globalization and the New World Order. This government is more interested in forming the North American Union than they are with the national sovereignty of the USA. Consider all the evidence. We now have a population of illegal aliens residing in this country that is roughly equivalent to the population of countries such as: Portugal, Czech Republic, Hungary and Greece. The goal? Dilute future opposition to the North American Union and protection of the sovereignty of the USA. Welcome to the brave new world.

I think this guy needs to be fired.
If his solution to make the border safe is just go give illegals amnesty well then we are paying chertoff for doing nothing.

Safer would be allowing them to shoot the bastards. They're scared shitless in washington right now on this whole issue. They need to be. Heres a question just in case it doesn't post. Take a look and answer if you wish.

How about "comprehensive" border security, along with comprehensive Deportation proceedings for the illegal bastards.
Now That would be fair to the "Majority" of American PEOPLE.

You notice he said he doesn't view Mexico as a terrorist hotbed. So my question then becomes. Why did we build 800 prison encampments here in the US and were told they were for Muslims? Hmm? Something isn't adding up here folks.

Why do Muslims get so enthusiastic about others replacing to Islam and leaving their faith. i ought to comprehend this if the reason were that you needed the international to bypass to heaven as each and every faith see theirs because the actual faith and the in trouble-free terms thanks to heaven and needs anybody to have this opportunity, besides the undeniable fact that it type of feels that the type of marvelous number of Muslims see this as a contest to make certain what number you'll get into your faith in an attempt to educate Islam to be the actual faith. how lots of you are able to fairly say the in trouble-free terms reaction you've is in get mutually of the convert without giving in to egocentric suggestions of proving that it means Islam is turning out to be? I in actual reality advise no disrespect, yet I see that suggestions-set a lot in this communicate board.
