Border Patrol to build fencing

With all the information available about how many terrorists are coming across the southern border, it boggles the imagination as to why we have not deployed the military to stop the infiltration. I can't figure what the congress is thinking. They've all taken an oath to defend the country against invasion. There can be nothing more important than the safety of our citizens. The president continues to play a shell game with our security. The whole border debacle is outrageous.

The U.S. Border Patrol is asking for volunteers among its agents to help build fences on the U.S.-Mexico border, even as President Bush is withdrawing half the National Guard troops he sent there last year to build fences.

A memo circulated last week to Border Patrol sector chiefs said fence-building efforts on the Southwest border were going to fall short of Mr. Bush's goal of finishing 70 miles in fiscal 2007, which ends Sept. 30, "so the Border Patrol is now going back into the fence-building business."

The memo, a copy of which was obtained by The Washington Times, called on the chiefs to provide lists of agents who "can and have built fences in the past," adding that the agency was looking for welders, equipment operators and "anyone else with construction experience."
