Border fence? I demand a WALL
Not that I want one, but I feel if they want to play this game, it would be better to change it to the closest example we have of such a project - the Berlin Wall. That's really what is being talked about. And we all know how ultimately successful the Berlin Wall was. Oh wait - republican Hero Ronald Reagan demanded that it be torn down? Oh, my bad...

7. Mother
Pink Floyd, Mother

Mother, do you think they'll drop the bomb?
Mother, do you think they'll like this song?
Mother, do you think they'll try to break my balls?
Ooooowaa Mother, should I build a wall?
Mother, should I run for President?
Mother, should I trust the government?
Mother, will they put me in the firing line?
Ooooowaa Is it just a waste of time?

3. Great point!
We tear down one in Germany only to build one here! :grr:

Also, on a slightly OT, but did anyone else read how building a wall could impact wildlife migration?

10. We're walling over the truth
I hate the racist propagandists like Dobbs (like his stand against congress though).

The cause is POVERTY! We could cure the cause instead of spending all our money treating the symptoms!

11. OH, CANADA!!!
It is my hope that if the US builds a wall or fence on the southern US border, that CANADA will build a fence or wall along its southern border!!

I'd LOVE to see all the rethugs react to THAT!!!!

14. the mother wall of babylon
Edited on Fri Oct-27-06 07:47 PM by sweetheart
Oh let the wall be built ten thousand feet high,
Clouds are but whispy that high in the sky,
And up from the top, they can watch the birds fly,
the sun cast its shadow, and ten million die.

The wall without gates used a cable car to lift
people over the wall, one at a time, and if they
don't like the person, the can drop them off with
a free airfare back to sin.

And only those on top of the wall will be without sin.
Only those beyond walls will god love as kin.
