MYTHBUSTING: The Wall
Posted: Jan 31, 2017
The hysteria, disinfo, and BS from the left is getting on my nerves. I guess folks in Vermont have NO CLUE what it's like down here. I DO because I LIVE here.
MSM is misreporting the facts. Let's clear something up once and for all:
NOBODY is proposing a wall that stretches across all ~2,000 milles of our Mexican border. The reason? It's not necessary.
From PolitiFact:
"Trump has said the wall could cost $8 billion to $12 billion, be made of precast concrete, and rise 35 to 40 feet, or 50 feet, or higher. He’s said the wall doesn’t need to run the nearly 2,000 miles of the border, but half of that because of natural barriers.
The U.S.-Mexico border stretches nearly 2,000 miles, more than half of it along the Colorado River and Rio Grande. As of May 2015, there was about 650 miles of vehicle and pedestrian fencing, according to a 2016 report from the U.S. Government Accountability Office.
There is no hard estimate for how much it would cost to add fencing to the remaining portion of the border.

It is also - a problem
[ In Reply To ..]because this is where most of the heroin that comes into this country comes through. Mexico also dumps their unwanted criminals through this area. For some unknown reason, people think he is saying everyone is a criminal. He is not saying that. There are also walls built already as far as I know for a long stretch on both sides of this. They were built by the last administration. There are fences and walls. I saw them on a investigation some time last year. People are very misinformed.
What gets on nerves is the lack of transparency in the media WHO - started not confirming Supreme Court
[ In Reply To ..]picks in a president's last year in office. It was the Democrats who started it during a Republican presidency, namely Joe Biden's idea.
It’s just the Biden rule. In 1992 Biden said a president should not fill a Supreme Court vacancy during an election year.
Democrats don't like playing by their own rules.
Obama said to the GOP, "They can come for the ride, but they gotta sit in back.”
Now that the shoe’s on the other foot, the whining juvenile Democrats want to blow up the bus.
The dims started all of this when they borked Robert Bork. - Now they are going to get borked and forked.
[ In Reply To ..]Serves ‘em right.
Until the elites suffer what normal Americans do, they will never - change their view that

A huge "champion of the poor" Nancy Pelosi’s $22 million Napa home boasts tennis courts and a Bocci ball court. She is lucky enough to also have a helicopter landing pad.
A political creation of unions, she employs ZERO union people at her vineyard and at her luxurious bed & breakfast, Auberge de Soleil, where a burger and fries will set you back $22 before tax and tip.
Auberge de Soleil, rated in the top 10 of it’s kind in the USA.
Pelosi also played a critical role in exempting American Samoa, where 80% of the island works for Starkist Tuna, from a mandatory minimum wage hike, from $5.35 per hour. "Advocate for the poor" Pelosi is a major Starkist shareholder, you see.
In a single year the bar tab for Pelosi’s huge government plane exceeded $100,000 —one time she diverted it over 1,000 miles in order to pick up a single order of chocolate-dipped strawberries.
These are the elites/Democratic Party cares more about illegal aliens than they do the safety of regular working American citizens.
The former pinup girl has come a long way. - sm
[ In Reply To ..]She should have stayed in the wrecking garage as she has done nothing but wreck the State of California (along with Governor Moonbeam) and this great country.
Building a wall will also help stem the births - of anchor babies.
[ In Reply To ..]Before EMR, I used to transcribe scads and scads of delivery notes and C-section OP notes on illegal aliens every single day.
I also live in a border city and if I don't type about the crime and criminals, I see it in the news daily. I can count on at least three or four gunshot or stab wound victims per day.
My neighbor across the street woke up one morning and found illegal aliens in his backyard. He shooed them off with a shotgun.

Who Pays For The Wall? I Don't Give A Rip. It Will Be Jan 27, 2017
Almost any scheme that would impose a cost on Mexico for the wall is likely to have some cost to the American citizen as well. If you impose a 20% tax on imports, Mexican goods (e.g. produce) would us cost more for sure, although not 20% more because Mexicans would be pricing themselves out of the market, so they'll adjust their prices to some extent downward. The fact is, though, that the cost of drugs, human trafficking and the illegal population in the US is approximately 5 times ...

Some forecasters predict a short-term spike of up to 10 cents a gallon. Crude oil prices and gas futures are soaring on growing fears that if the U.S. military strikes at Syria for its h ...

Hungary's New Border Wall A Spectacular Success.Jul 27, 2017

For the remainder of that month, illegal border crossings were steadily below 40 per day, officials said. Border patrols prevent dozens of crossings every day and catch migrants who make it into Hungary within the first fe ...
Obama Sends Mexico $75 Million To Build WallSep 17, 2016
Turns out Barack Obama isn’t all that against building a border wall to keep out illegals after all. Thing is, he wants illegals to enter America, he’s just not okay with them entering Mexico. Looks like the U.S. is giving our neighbors to the south $75 million so they can build their own wall to protect themselves from Central American invaders. One of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s talking points in his campaign has that he wants to protect our borders. He wan ...
