I'm really not trying to get involved, but someone has to take the first step. Right? :2razz:
then don't get involved

We have Homeland Security and a border patrol for that. They need far more resources.
Again, illegal aliens are a law enforcement issue, not a health care issue. There are appropriate places to protect against illegal aliens, but a health care bill is not one of those places.
That's because it's a legitimate federal responsibility under the constitution.Hey, we agree on something.
It a law enforcement issue that affects those other things.
I would have no problem with the military helping keep illegals out, but only after we finish our two wars. The military has too much to do as it is.
All the border states have national gaurds and jobs are scarce right now. I'm sure there would be more than enough volunteers for some stateside active duty.
Conservative extremists are always against social progress, they were against Social Security and Medicare back in the day, with the same ignorant ranting, "is socialism!!", blahblahblah..... The US didn't turned into a socialist republic back then and it won't tomorrow either, conservatives are on the losing side of history as usual. Universal health care is the norm among the most advanced and civilized nations, the USA will join them sooner or later, is inevitable.

Naysayer, party of no, republican. I thought the connection was clear.
When the military is not deployed, they have training to do. It is important too.

They only seem like impossible pipe dreams because the manpower has never been put into it. It could be done if they really wanted to accomplish it.
You're kidding right? Illegal aliens are costing this country BILLIONS. In California, emergency care facilities are even required to provide translators for them if they cannot speak English.
How can anyone claim that illegal aliens are not a health care issue when part of the high costs associated with them is part of the farcical claims of Obamanomics.
I would like to see just one CREDIBLE source for the false numbers constantly being bantered about by the Left in their efforts to fear monger people into a joke called Universal Health Care; just one please.
:2wave:
All the more reason to deploy state and federal soldiers to the borders.
I forget. Who was the party of no during the previous 8 years????
It's not training. You can only ask the military to do so much before it is detrimental to their ability to complete their primary mission.

Granted, but there are hundreds of thousands of national gaurd troops that haven't ever been deployed.
I believe that is for federal troops.There are also laws in this country preventing our armed force from being police.

Why have they not been deployed? If they have the appropriate skills, they should be in the rotation. If not, they won't be much use against illegal aliens either.
I guess you have a point, I think this fall a bit into a gray area. But our border patrol is the key force to carry out this duty.not applicable, this is a forieign invasion. these are non citizens.
