Bush "cognizant" of border terrorism risk, but won't do anything about it

Les Kinsolving asked Tony Snow about border security:

"The president has made his views on border security well-known... and my question: Would the president make border security a higher priority if he were convinced it was being used as an entry point by terrorists like those who are part of Hezbollah and al-Qaida?"

Snow responded:

"Think of it this way. The president committed as much money to the borders already as the House of Representatives was planning on doing in five years. So, he was serious before – he's perfectly cognizant of the possibility there may be terrorists crossing over. We have intelligence assets deployed in the area, and so he's not going to be anymore concerned because he's already very concerned about it."

Now, let's look at the facts. Karl Rove admits that 6 million illegal aliens have entered on Bush's watch. And, not only has the Bush administration almost completely refused to enforce immigration laws in the workplace, they admit it. And, Bush has almost come right out and blackmailed the U.S., saying that he'll only enforce the borders after he gets a guest worker plan.

I guess there are different levels of being concerned. If he were really concerned, he would do what's necessary to reduce the risk. The fact is, he has not. He has clearly made the decision that keeping the cheap labor flowing is more important than the security of the U.S.

It absolutely sickens me to know that the "leadership" of both parties would rather risk a suitcase nuke going off in a major US city than risk alienating the business interests or the multi-culti interests. It's as if they can't believe that this is a real possibility, sort of like the 17-year-old girl who can't believe that she could possibily be so unlucky as to be pregnant right up until the moment she gives birth in the high school girls' rest room - at the prom in front of 500 witnesses.
