It Is Still As Current As It Was On the Day It Was First Published
That day was June 30, 2007. It’s about The Wall. The only thing that has changed is that back then it was called a “Fence” more than it was called a “Wall”. Now it is called a Wall or sometimes it is called a Fence or sometimes it is called a Barrier.
Watch today’s news and you will actually hear Members of Congress saying things like, “I unequivocally opposed to a Wall but I am willing to entertain the idea of a Barrier if it is constructed more akin to a Fence. In the past I have made it clear that I leaned more toward a Fence/Barrier but, due the changing demographics of the situation, I am more inclined to think that a Wall/Barrier that looks like Barrier/Fence is the way I am leaning since last Thursday. Actually I may have changed my set in stone position on this vital issue on Friday a week ago. No wait, it could not have been Friday because I have not worked on a Friday since that President (I forget his name) before President Reagan was in office. You know the one. He grew some kind of Nuts in that state he hailed from. Give me some help here. You know the state. It is the one next to Alabama...Or is it?”

Wanna know how the Border Fence could be built in a heartbeat? It would be easy. Allow me to explain…
If the Mexican/U.S. Border were being crossed in huge numbers by Mexican Congressmen and Mexican Senators who were taking the positions in our Congress of our sitting Congressmen and Senators and our sitting Congressmen and Senators were losing their jobs, the Border Fence could be built darn near overnight.
Use your mind’s eye to picture with me for a moment...
What a sight!
