Money can bye you a lot of happiness over the Holidays, but thanks to Democrats in Congress, there will be no peace of mind over border security in the New Year.

Congress last night passed a giant new spending bill that undermines current plans for a U.S.-Mexico border fence, allowing the Homeland Security Department to build a single-tier barrier rather than the two-tier version that has worked in California.

Pelosi's do-nothing Congress has finally gotten off their duffs, but unfortunately, making the country more vulnerable and less secure is tops on their 'to-do' list.

The 2006 Secure Fence Act specifically called for "two layers of reinforced fencing" and listed five specific sections of border where it should be installed. The new spending bill removes the two-tier requirement and the list of locations.

Merry Christmas America, or should I say?


Feliz Navidad!
