President [32% approval-rate] Bush has proposed stationing National Guard Troops along the U.S.-Mexico border in and effort to keep illegal immigrants out. A few thousand troops will [reportedly] be stationed alongside the current 200-strong Border Patrol.

Even though they're trying to sweep this one under the rug, mixed feelings are arising as a cause of Mr President's latest move. Southerners are furious, claiming they can use the extra support in New Orleans. Bush is scheduled to speak tonight at 8 p.m. EDT, and visit the border in Arizona on Thursday. As usual, we'll listen closely to his coached speeches, but when did America lose its voice? There's obviously no going back to pre-9-11 days so...Welcome to the New World people.
