(AP) -- A civilian border watch group considers President Bush's crackdown plan on illegal immigration insufficient and is sticking to plans to start putting up a short border security fence on private land along the Mexican border.

On Monday, the president announced his intent to temporarily deploy up to 6,000 National Guard troops to support the U.S. Border Patrol -- but not conduct patrols themselves -- as part of an effort to gain control of the porous southwestern border with Mexico.

In a nationally televised address, Bush endorsed a temporary worker program and said he wants new, secure identification cards for legal foreign workers; would let illegal immigrants with otherwise clean records pay a fine and start along a path to become citizens and would make employers take responsibility for those they hire.

Crackdown! Crackdown the article says! Jumping Kitty-fish what the hell crackdown are they talking about?

We have been sold down the river by Bush & his cronies and soon we'll be sold down the river by Congress. Crackdown indeed!!!

You'd think these overweening pricks in D.C. were Mexican politicians instead of American politicians.

Anyone who votes for the 'guest worker program' is a damned traitor and we need to put those people in the unemployed line come November.
