Democrats will look again at the legislation mandating 698 miles of fencing along the U.S.-Mexico border and might seek to scrap the plan altogether when they take control of Congress next year.
Rep. Bennie Thompson, Mississippi Democrat, told reporters this week that he expected to "revisit" the issue when he becomes chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee in the 110th Congress.

About two weeks ago I noted that the border fence will probably never be built. The then Republican controlled congress voted to authorize the fence, but not to fund it. Now we have even more proof that the Democrats are soft on security.

 | Thanks for the mention.
It's increasingly apparent that conservatives were impeding GWB's hidden agenda.
Interesting times ahead. |
