Bill Richardson lied about the Border Fence

[dongatodelacolonia]

yea yea your wall is gonna stop terrorists ja ja

[dongatodelacolonia]

ja ja ja build your wall guys please hurry

[ruppertace]

Mexicans smuggled terrorist over the border w/biological weapons they were going to set off on an Army Base near Tucson killing millions. We need to shut down the Mexican Border and get all illegals out to secure our Country.

Jesus, even the Ron Paul fucking lunatics have invaded YouTube videos. Get it through your head: your candidate is a nutjob who wants to send us back to the days of the Articles of Confederation. His theories on the economy are shit, because they simply won't work. The only honest candidate is Kucinich, who actually uses FACTS and WORKING IDEAS.

The fence may have worked well in San Diego, but that is only a small area and easy to patrol.

I doubt very much if it is going to work along the vast empty border area.

[CrazyDaisyMayzie]

who cares about the "hasn't worked" comment. i get it... and i know richardson isn't lying. it is a comment not an oath for crying out loud

who is ron paul?

[NoMoreBlatherDotCom]

Just to make this clear, if Bill Richardson had said it hadn't worked in general, there wouldn't be such a problem. However, in answer to the specific question as to whether it had worked "anywhere along the border", he said it had not. Since it works in San Diego, anyone who's intellectually honest is forced to admit that Richardson lied.

[yangyang2000]

If every political comment is taken at face value by everyone, first we would all be idiots like you, second there would be no work done in government.

"There wouldn't be such a problem." This is NOT "such a problem" with me and dare I say 100% of the non-retarded world.

Post something of worthwhile and debatable substance next time.

Idiot!

[Notfreeloader]

Wall is work Jose ...u say lier because wall is work !! u got election because all ur mexican move to ur state thats why u won. u need campaigne to Tijuana for ur distric

[selfTrust]

How can anyone defend Richardson? Ask him about the nuclear plant, and he skirts his way around it.

Ron Paul is the ONLY honest candidiate.

[DeFo06]

So what about the part of San Diego where there was an underground tunnel that lead into the heart of downtown San Diego that the illegals had been using for over 8 months to come into the country? What good is a fence if they just tunnel under it? Booyakasha, in your face.

[Bossanovawitcha]

NoMoreBlatherDotCom's assertion is pretty weak, citing one city's fence as evidence against Richardson's statement that the fence "hasn't worked". If you calculate the # of border patrol agents and resources at or near the Tijuana border and expect to have the ability to duplicate that across every cactus crossing in CA/AZ/NM/TX you are kidding yourself.

[NoMoreBlatherDotCom]

It's to laugh! Tim Russert asked Richardson whether the fence has worked "anywhere along the border". Richardson replied that it had not. Obviously, the fence works in San Diego. Ergo, Richardson lied. Someone who's not a loose borders hack/OAS appointee would have pointed to San Diego as an example of how fencing works.

[Merge98FM]

Sure that San Diego fence works now, but he's talking about the long run. Look for some 21-foot ladders to be built in Mexico.

[windupcanary]

You are ridiculous, and obviously hell-bent on defaming Richardson for any reason you can. "It hasn't worked" isn't a "lie", it's a perfectly justifiable statement--illegal border crossing has a whole has continued to rise, even after the San Diego fence got built! People just went through another area! And you think, if it was a 10-ft high wall on the whole border, folks wouldn't get "an 11-ft high ladder", as Richardson says?

[Bossanovawitcha]

However, I have been a Richardson fan until the past few months. Meet the Press really debunked him as a Presidential candidate for me. I felt Biden and McCain held up much better and emerged stronger under Russert's invasive microscope.

[jawja]

That's because Richardson's not a career senator. Biden and McCain have had the rhetoric down for a long time.
