On October 26, 2006, George W. Bush signed into law a bill authorizing the construction of 700 additional miles of fence along the U.S.-Mexico border. It was an obvious, blatant ploy designed to give Republican incumbents an opportunity to demonstrate the GOP's commitment to stringent border patrols, keeping illegal immigrants from entering the country. Bush had to do everything possible to try and destroy the possibility of Democrats regaining control of the House and/or the U.S. Senate. Mid-term November elections were critical for the GOP, and Republican incumbents, many of whom were trying to walk a tightrope between distancing themselves from the Bush administration and still maintaining some semblance of loyalty to the party platform.
In less than fourteen months, the United States' version of the Berlin Wall had come tumbling down. Illegal aliens desperate to come to the U.S.A. had managed to foil the Bush security efforts. The easiest way, of course, was to cross the border where there was no fence, thereby transferring the illegal alien problem from infested areas such as southern California and Arizona to more desolate regions in New Mexico and western Texas.
But, illegal aliens had managed to blow holes in the fence, tunnel underneath the fence, and tear down the fence. In a year, the "wall" designed to keep illegals out of the country had suffered more damage than the passing of centuries had inflicted upon the Great Wall of China. It was one more stupid expense the Bush administration had imposed on American taxpayers in an effort to pound its chest and proclaim its homeland security strategies as brilliant and successful. Nothing could be further from the truth; but 'truth' was something George W. Bush knew little about. He had lived his entire life of privilege and wealth based on lies, deception, half-truths, fallaciousness and idiocy.
Illegal immigration, however, had now slowed to a snail's pace; in fact, more illegal aliens were returning to Mexico when it became evident that the destruction left behind by O.U.T.R.A.G.E. and a 9.4 earthquake in L.A. had significantly severed opportunities. The Bush 'wall of shame' was in disrepair, and after millions of taxpayers' dollars squandered on these 'security' measures, the intense fence and extra border patrol units was nothing more than one more Bush failure. Just as he'd failed at college, failed to properly serve in the U.S. military, failed at multiple business ventures, George W. Bush's biggest failure was that of playing President. He had no clue what to do....and as he appraoched the end of his term, even he must have recognized what an aberration his Presidency had been. No where was it more obvious than in the pages of his personal, very private diary that was now being scrutinized by expert analysts, who were unanimously convinced of the diary's authenticity. It was becoming clear that George W. Bush was a madman not incontrol of his own sanity; a raving lunatic very much capable of pushing the 'red button' that would ignite World War III.
