Obama's prescription last week for the border chaos is a clear indication that he still doesn't regard the problem as dire or deteriorating. To the contrary, his remedy is truly a Band-Aid on a national open wound (border) that is bleeding profusely. Obama has more passion (in his own words) to "just plug the damn hole" of oil gushing into the Gulf of Mexico than he does to stop the illegal immigrants and contraband that are gushing through the national screens we call U.S. borders. He even activated a superfluous 1,400 National Guards in four states to manage the oil leak crisis!

One last time -- consider the difference. What's more important: bonds or borders? Yours and especially your state and national leaders' answer to that question is among the most critical, because what we believe about our borders will determine the future of our country.

Will you believe and follow the philosophical precedent of globalists like President Obama, who said, "In the 21st century, we are not defined by our borders but by our bond."
