    Glenn Spencer bought four acres of land here, 1,000 feet from the Mexican border, with one purpose: Prove that President Bush and Congress aren't up to the task of stopping millions of illegal immigrants from freely flowing into this country.
    "They should build a wall [fence] down there," he said, pointing to mangled strands of barbed wire that separate the mountains on his side of the border from those in Mexico. "They've got to build a wall [fence] - triple layered. Other than that, it's sheer folly."
