Sovereignty?

When a country loses control of its borders the loss of sovereignty usually follows.

The President's speech last night on immigration reform had these memorable lines.

First, the United States must secure its borders. This is a basic responsibility of a sovereign nation. It is also an urgent requirement of our national security.

Urgency? I fail to see any urgency now almost five years after 9-11. I can't take this administration's "War on Terror" very seriously when we have such open borders that an evil-doer can put a dirty bomb on a wheelbarrow and roll it across the border.

There is no one more paralyzed by terrorism than President Bush.
