Mahmoud Qurani crossed that border in the trunk of a car. an agent for Hezbollah. whose brother. by the way. was in charge of the southern front in the attack on Israel recently. He came across in the trunk of a car. I have talked to Border Patrol agents who have made apprehensions on that border. and I can tell you the San Diego fence has not only cut the crime rate by half in San Diego. but also on the Mexican side. and nobody has designed a way to get around the San Diego fence. This doubleborder fence works. It is what the Border Patrol has asked me for and testified up here for. And 69 percent in the polling last night by Rasmussen. actually the polling was on the 12th. 69 percent of the public say they want. they favor an approach focusing on securing the border with this kind of approach. Only 20 percent of people want Congress to try to pass the immigration reform bill that failed in the Senate last week.
