Yeah, Right!

Wolf here.

As Seth and Chuck are out and about on some skullduggery or other, I may as well pick up the slack, here. The sacrifices we make…

Just kidding.

Before I get started, here, a quick note on the Obama economy. Yes, well on the way to 12 Trillion smackers, there, with all kinds of expenditures on far left agendas, much of which will bounce back at election time to finance Democrat campaigns. Yeah, I mean the Obama Administration ripping off the taxpayer to bolster campaign warchests on the left side of the political picture. That would be considered a felony, except that the lefty media goes out of its way to ignore that sort of thievery, seeing as it’s being perpetrated by a liberal administration. God help a Republican president if he did the same thing!

There, now, with that out of the way, let’s move on to an article at CNSNews by Terence P. Jeffrey.

Even though the Border Patrol now reports that almost 1,300 miles of the U.S.-Mexico border is not under effective control, and the Department of Justice says that vast stretches of the border are “easily breached,” and the Government Accountability Office has revealed that three persons “linked to terrorism” and 530 aliens from “special interest countries” were intercepted at Border Patrol checkpoints last year, the administration is nonetheless now planning to decrease the number of Border Patrol agents deployed on the U.S.-Mexico border.

Why? Because funding that could have been used to keep the Border Patrol up to adequate strength is prioritized, instead, for those above mentioned sleazy, treasonous, criminal liberal agendas.

Border Patrol Director of Media Relations Lloyd Easterling confirmed this week–as I first reported in my column yesterday–that his agency is planning for a net decrease of 384 agents on the U.S.-Mexico border in fiscal 2010, which begins on October 1.

More money, measurable in metric tons, was allocated to now discredited ACORN (only discredited because even the Mighty Mainstream Media couldn’t keep a lid on the recent release of videos in which certain ACORN employees showed their true colors), than they’d need to keep those agents on our southern border.

Easterling said the Border Patrol would be able to maintain the current number of miles under effective control on the Mexico border with fewer agents deployed there thanks to “force multipliers,” including new fencing, roads and other infrastructure that has been built in recent years. He also cited the assistance the Border Patrol receives from local police and sheriffs departments and community watch groups.

What a buncha’ bullshit!

But even if the Border Patrol is able to maintain or marginally improve on the current level of security on the U.S.-Mexico border, most of the border will remain effectively open to smuggling both contraband and persons.

Yeah, my emphasis.

The article, in its entirety, is here.

Wolf out.
