There is another example of the robPetertopayPaul approach the administration takes to securing our homeland. Last week. the administration notified the Congress of a serious shortfall within the Federal Protective Service. the agency that secures over 1 million Federal employees and visitors to our Federal buildings. Rather than request additional funding for the shortfall or increase the fees charged to Federal agencies to cover the shortfall. the administration is proposing that we cut funding for explosives countermeasures and for detaining and removing illegal aliens to pay for the shortfall. Can you imagine that? The President tells the Nation that border security is a critical priority for our national securityand he is right. that is what it is. The President pushes the Congress to get tough on illegal immigration. and then his administration proposes to cut funding for detaining and removing illegal aliens. And in a world where we see explosions of improvised explosive devices killing American soldiers every day and with the Madrid and London train bombings. the administration wants to cut funds for developing explosives countermeasures here in the United States. What kind of confusion reigns at the other end of the avenue. at the White House?
