It seems like forever we've been consumed with the high gas prices. This run-up in energy costs has diverted our attention away from other pressing issues that need addressing, but we can't seem to take our eyes off the pump. Politicians are counting on that. U.S. Rep. Raul Grijalva, D-Ariz., is quietly sponsoring a couple of bills in Congress that would extend federal wildlife protection to about 84,000 acres along the U.S.-Mexico border at Coronado National Forest. This would effectively move the border 30 miles to the north. It would also effectively create a safe haven for drug runners and coyotes. The only chance we have in stopping illegal entry into our country is for Border Patrol agents to peer into Mexico to see who's coming. A 30-mile buffer zone would make it impossible to do that.

get rid of 30 million illegal aliens and gas consumption would dramatically be reduced.

In Reply to Anonyma: It looks like the usual...it seems to be sitting in limbo as all others before it have.
throw the 30 million or so illegals out and the price of gas would go down just because the demand wouldn't be there....

In Reply to cudzuqueen: Do you (or any of us) know anything about the bill that Arizona crafted to challenge the jackpot baby birthbarfright citizenshiptheft deal in the U.S.A? I read somewhere that it's a plan to get the question before the Supreme Court. And I pray they decide it the right way. Our future may depend upon this question. If suddenly a lot of jackpot babies became illegal aliens, we could really move on deportation -- but will the Supreme Court have the ovaries to do it?

No kidding...their procreation rate is nothing short of being bestial. Their ingrate spawn are costing this country greatly in all facets of our life.
