Never Underestimate the Power of Human Stupidity

Switched to Lou Dobbs on CNN tonight. It's hard not to catch something about border security. His guests tonight were obviously opposed to any serious effort by the US to tighten border security. One of the guest, who holds dual citizenship (US-Mexico) was all for having one big happy North Americal with no borders. The other, was all for controlling the border, as long as we made sure that all the rights of the illegals were protected. Neither wanted to see real security on the border and neither would admit to any potential problems with our porous border.

I guess I'm not smart enough to realize that we need to protect the right of non-citizens to come into our country without any resistance or their rights as citizens under the Constitution. I also find it hard to believe that they could convince anyone that their point of view is correct with the ducking and dodging very simple, straightforeward questions by Dobbs.
