Cracks in the foundation

Who cares about what leftists imagine? You guys imagined you were going to win this election. These 'cracks' are as real as that was.

[FindersKeepers]

Shoot -- I thought we finally had a good construction thread here and I was excited to get into it. Not that I wish foundation problems on anyone...

[Common]

At the least illegal immigration will be nothing like obama has enhanced for 8 yrs, talk about cracked

[Dangermouse]

Hardly any wall is needed because America is protected from Mexico by "high mountains and vicious rivers!"

[decedent]

Even Newt Gingrich said the wall was just a "campaign device".


"I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, and I will make Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words." - Donald Trump, 2016

And many Muslim immigrants who are competing with them. This is the Adidas shirt near the border that Breitbart said was an "Islamo-Mexican terror rug."

The entire 1000 mile Texas-Mexico border is the Rio Grande river.

I have, as of yet, heard a decent story from my Republican friends as to which side of the river the wall would be built on and how they would resolve the seemingly obvious international water rights issues.

One of our friends said she would build the wall right down the middle the entire length of the border.

good times.

[Captain Obvious]

I'm going to go out on a limb and state that the wall is going to be one of Trump's first campaign promise flops.

In the sectors we looked at we would take advantage of the terrain. In some cases, the wall was well inside the US. In other cases, it was much closer to the international border. Our plans called for road improvements on both sides where the wall was set back from the border. Expect day/night cameras, microwave beam break technologies, seismic sensors, and more command and control centers.

That sounds cheap. We billing Mexico?

[MisterVeritis]

I was a systems engineer on two of these proposals. I do not recall a section in the technical volumes for tactical nuclear weapons. Nor for punji stake pits. It is possible they were not in the RFI or RFQ.

[Docthehun]

If nothing else, the President-elect can always count on his Alaskan buddy.................maybe.

It was pretty cheap. On those two past proposals, no. On the wall itself, yes.

Doc ain't a leftist.

He is that rarest of creatures, a conservative with a brain.

He oughtta be on the endangered species list.

He's an honest man, and also on occasion slightly irritating.

That should be RFP. Not RFI.

Portions were wall. Portions were double fenced with a road between the fence lines. All included cameras and other sensors including ground surveillance radar.

[Cigar]

Yea ... Deported more than any Republican President :laugh:

[nic34]

There's already a wall here folks, grampy even confirmed it...

And vast 1000 mile expanses are an international river which can be waded across easily much of the year.

Political commentators, whether they are on the left or right, make their living by creating a controversy then commenting on that controversy. Then if the public doesn't seem to care, they blow it out of proportion.

Hence the need for a physical barrier. A wall.

Yes, and what about the fact that both countries own the river?

Incorrect. Although I can see how somebody of your caliber could make that mistake. As I've said before, biology isn't fair.

[Peter1469]

Open your mind. The concept is a border that has a meaning. Globalist lost the election.

[Peter1469]

We don't need people who will ultimately be wards of the state wandering in from the south.

[Subdermal]

:facepalm:

Why can the wall not figurately cover all efforts to do what the notion of a wall would do?

[Subdermal]

No, clearly not. It gives some delusions of superiority, which life has a way of snuffing out in the worst possible ways.

We can build the wall anywhere we choose to. We will follow and reinforce the terrain where we can.

You can't build it down the middle of the river. Nor can you build it in mexico. If you want to give up access to the river then build your wall.

A fence along half the border leaving a shallow 1000 mile long river border unattended is hardly a wall.

We have this technology that allows us to move water from one place to another. We call the technology pipes. We also have a technology we often use with walls and other physical barriers. We call them doors or gates. I bet if we put our minds to it we could come up with a variety of solutions to allow access to the river without allowing northbound invaders access to the US.

You forgot dams. Perhaps mexico, which controls most of the tributaries will decide to reduce it to a trickle.

Just not your Statists version.

The plot thickens. All we need now is for Mr. Farnsworth to show up! Actually, we all have to be DGUtley since he's a real person, although the doubters still believe that Dave isn't Dave, in a manner of speaking.

Our resident conspiracy theorist is supposedly really intelligent, but obviously the ball hasn't bounced his direction enough to be happy. Such a shame. He does at times post some thoughtful responses, although I'm highly unlikely, for obvious reasons, to give it a public "thumbs up". That too is a shame. You'd think some people would simply run out of venom, obviously not. I say, if you're happy being miserable, have at it!

PS - I agreed more than a year and a half ago, in a phone conversation, to support the Party's nominee. I carried through with my pledge. So get off my chit! :smiley:

Too funny! How many times did he say that! Poor Biff! Homer would have been hammering Mr. F........and Mr. F. would have been hammering the humble fisherman right back. They were too mean to each other, which as you and @NapRover (http://thepoliticalforums.com/member.php?u=2018) know, is something not on my approval list. Hey, I look pretty good in that picture, but my number was 34 (Correction 36). Photoshop that for me will you? Those are my high school colors, so otherwise, it's perfect.

I graduated before the invention of the playoffs. I played for Bob Heil. Dick Roll has done an amazing job with few kids to pick from. Unlike the MAC schools, Lehman fields a soccer team as well. We used to have 50 or 60 kids come out for football, now 35 is a good year. I usually take in a game or two each year. They'd fair better in the playoffs, but Minster, and Ft. Recovery, plus Covington, are all in the same region.

Sorry about breaking into the middle of your post. Old man brain fart!
