The state of the borders 2003

Prediction: On one of the most pressing homeland security issues facing the nation, President Bush will have nothing -- nada -- to say during his State of the Union address.

I am talking, of course, about the state of our borders.

The Bush White House remains shamefully silent about the brutal murder of U.S. Park Ranger Kris Eggle. This 28-year-old American was gunned down last summer by an AK-47-toting illegal alien drug smuggler who waltzed across the southern border into Arizona's Organ Pipe National Monument.

According to the Park Service, as many as 1,000 illegal aliens a day trample across the park -- trashing our fences, ruining the environment, breaking our laws and endangering lives. It's a smugglers' paradise and a national security nightmare. &quot;We have caught people from China, Pakistan and Yemen coming through,&quot; Bo Stone, an Organ Pipe ranger and close friend of Eggle's, told the Los Angeles Times this week.
