The War against the Wall

Now here's a war we want, Bushies: the war against your ill-conceived, ineffective, and outrageously expensive border wall. I'm so happy to see folks joining forces to fight Chertoff's sweeping powers.

Here's a few good media pieces on the battle:

1. The U.S. Supreme Court may get a chance to join the fractious debate over building fencing along the U.S.-Mexico border. Go Team!

2. Texas border cities and counties will join the lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security to halt construction of the border fence. (Not the same lawsuit as item 1, mind you.)

3. And an opinion from Syracuse New York newspaper condemning Chertoff and the wall. Syracuse! Refreshingly far from Mexico (which is only to say that at least other states are catching on that this whole waiver business is a problem).
