She appears to be about as knowledgeable about border issues as a late-night radio call-in yahoo.
In an interview broadcast Monday on the CBC, Ms. Napolitano attempted to justify her call for stricter border security on the premise that "suspected or known terrorists" have entered the U. S. across the Canadian border, including the perpetrators of the 9/11 attack.
All the 9/11 terrorists, of course, entered the United States directly from overseas. The notion that some arrived via Canada is a myth that briefly popped up in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, and was then quickly debunked.
Informed of her error, Ms. Napolitano blustered: "I can't talk to that. I can talk about the future. And here's the future. The future is we have borders."
Just what does that mean, exactly?
Just a few weeks ago, Ms. Napolitano equated Canada's border to Mexico's, suggesting they deserved the same treatment. Mexico is engulfed in a drug war that left more than 5,000 dead last year, and which is spawning a spillover kidnapping epidemic in Arizona. So many Mexicans enter the United States illegally that a multi-billion-dollar barrier has been built from Texas to California to keep them out.
In Canada, on the other hand, the main problem is congestion resulting from cross-border trade. Not quite the same thing, is it?

It's easy when the guy doing the hiring knows nothing about the problems, what is needed to fix the problems, has no experience in dealing with problems, and doesn't know how to find anyone who can solve with the problems.
In other words, she was hired by an idiot. |

Another point everyone seems to let get by them is;
She diverted existing grant money that WAS ALREADY EARMARKED FOR BODER CONTROL, to a program that does not enchance the screening of people COMING INTO THE US but, rather to screen AMERICANS LEAVING TO MEXICO. There are new assets there to check persons, autos, commercial vehicles and rail leaving the country.
She claimed it was enhanced border control. She failed to mention that it was MEXICO's border control that would be enhanced, not the US'. |
