How is the border fence working? An abysmal failure of course

First, on the last 70 miles, the Wall Street Journal reports:

Opponents of the fence have petitioned the Obama administration to halt construction. Environmentalists are demanding a top-level review of the route, which they say would block such rare species as the ocelot from critical habitat. Property owners are contesting federal seizure of their land. Engineers are struggling to address flooding concerns.

So how is the rest of the fence doing? Has it stopped illegal immigration and the drug trade?

And all the while, drug smugglers and illegal immigrants continue to breach the fencing that is up, forcing Border Patrol agents and contractors to return again and again for repairs. The smugglers build ramps to drive over fencing, dig tunnels under it, or use blow torches to slice through. They cut down metal posts used as vehicle barriers and replace them with dummy posts, made from cardboard.

Did you really expect the feds to have the knowledge or expertise to design and oversee the construction of a fence? It's as simple as shitting in a well, but they can't do it.

Keep that in mind as they begin to design and oversee our health care system.

There are about 300 miles of the fence in high pedestrian areas. Those fences cost $3.9 million per mile.

Better keep that in mind too, as you contemplate the cost to you of politicized health care.

The same people who can't even build a reliable fence are planning to run the banks, revamp the auto industry, direct our energy exploration and production, create "green" jobs and guide our national economy.

This Government Gong Show ain't gonna be fun to watch.
