Homeland
Security Question
Presidential Debate - Sept. 30 - Coral Gables,
FL
When Jim Lehrer
asked Kerry what he would do differently to increase the homeland
security of the United States from what Bush is doing, Kerry
said, in this order, more cops, fixing subways and tunnels, inspecting
cargo ships, stopping tax cuts for the wealthy, protecting chemical
plants and chasing down nuclear material in Russia. No mention
of borders.
In his response, Bush spoke first of
creating the DHS to protect borders and ports and then of adding
more border patrol agents and modernizing the border.
