Charles Krauthammer, with the line of the day: If fences dont work, why is there one around the White House? Alright, heres what Ive been on for years. You start with a fence. Its very simple. People say, Oh, fences dont work. You make a ladder. Well, then you build two fences, triple strand fences. San Diego did that in the mid 90s and within a decade, the illegal immigration rate at that point was reduced by 90% and people ended up going through other places like Arizona. If fences dont work, why is there one around the White House? If they dont work, why is it that the Israeli fence which separate Israel from the West Bank has cut down terror attacks within Israel by 99%. Fences work. Yes, there are parts of the border where you cant have a fence, fine. So you dont have it in those areas and you do heavy patrols. But there is no reason why a rich country like us cannot put a fence across -- a double fence, a triple fence and patrol it all the time. That would have a tremendous impact.
