Investors.com - Borderline Dereliction Of Duty: "Border: The 2006 Secure Fence Act mandated the 'possible' construction of a long wall to protect our frontier. Four years later, no wall, just a new seven-year delay. This is an embarrassment.
It was almost a prelude to the Tea Parties now sweeping the nation. Millions of Americans, reacting to brazen demonstrations on U.S. soil by illegal immigrants, mobilized themselves to rouse Congress to do something about millions of illegal immigrants pouring into the U.S.
Citizen activists shut down the Capitol Hill switchboard with their calls, formed border watches and marched in the streets. As a result, a shaken Congress scrapped its widely detested McCain-Kennedy comprehensive immigration bill with its amnestylike features in 2005. Instead, it passed Rep. Duncan Hunter's Secure Fence Act of 2006."
