What we have here is a failure to grasp the situation!

Former FEMA director Michael Brown resigned from his post because he failed to grasp the enormity of the crisis in New Orleans as the situation unfolded. Brown said that he wasn't fully aware of the dire conditions until days after the storm hit. But FEMA official Marty Bahamonde, who was at the Superdome during the crisis, stated: "I couldn't have been any more clear to him (Brown) that food and water was a desperate situation at the Superdome."

Does this sound familiar to anyone? It does me!

For the past five years Mexicans have been pouring across the border and flooding our cities. I've said it before here, but I'll say it again: Entire areas of Dallas (where I live), for example, are now populated by peoples from ANOTHER country. These areas are hotbeds of crime and drugs. These areas are also IRS-free zones, as these illegals don't pay taxes in their underground economy.

For the past five years, President Bush has ignored this dire situation. He has "failed to grasp the enormity of the situation" despite the pleadings of many Americans. Let me say this as clearly as I can: The situation is turning desperate in many areas of the country because President Bush is not dealing with this unbelievable situation. What other country in the world allows 10,000 people a day to infiltrate its borders and take up residence, and then enjoy everything the country has to offer - schools, healthcare, and cash (tax free) jobs?

Assigning or hiring another one hundred or so border agents isn't going to cut it. What's another hundred going to do against 10,000 people a day? The United States needs to pursue other means, including military patrols or an adequate border fence/barrier, or both. Let's say the barrier cost $10 billion, or $20 billion. How many billions will we save when our schools and hospitals and other social services don't have to treat millions of people from another country?
