Now this is from the AP which has been quite liberal. That being said I applaud the huge increase in defense. I also applaud the increase in the Coast Guard’s budget. However I do have a problem in one area. Where is the massive increase for the border patrol and the hiring of agents to stem the invasion of illegals into this country? If the immigration dept is not going to be funded..how about we take some troops from the anti-american countries of france and germany and even the arab states that are actin a fool and post them on our own borders? Homeland defense needs to also mean our borders are sealed as much as possible..this administration has no interest in doing that unfortunatly.
