Lou Dobbs Tonight -- CNN November 20
U. S. House Speaker Pelosi: We have a responsibility as a nation to secure the
borders. We have a responsibility to do it in a way that does
not impede trade, tourism and again the coming together of families,
especially now as we go into the holiday season.
Dobbs: Mark Simone?
Simone: Tourism? What does that mean? I guess she's talking
about illegal tourism. First it was undocumented, now we've got
a new phrase, illegal tourism. It annoys me that they keep reminding
us that they know what the law should be. If they know it, why
don't they do something about it?
Goyette: Lou, they're all opportunistic on this issue.
I mean, Mitt Romney's trying to write in Iowa. It's just an issue
of convenience for them about which they really don't care a
lot personally.
Leon: And Rudy wants a virtual fence.
Dobbs: Exactly. HE came out today in point of fact talking
about a virtual fence. HE said in some places, a real fence is
all right. But he wants a virtual fence. And there is of course
Rudy Giuliani. Mark, come on, give the mayor a little support
here.
Simone: Well unfortunately, a couple of weeks ago, he
was great on this issue. He was phenomenal for a couple of days.
And all of the sudden, his position change. And this virtual
fence, I don't like. I mean, you've got a fence and a virtual
fence. But I guess when it comes to politics and politicians,
it's always a virtual solution to every problem, so why not a
virtual fence?
