Infuriating Hypocrisy from the Bush Administration

OK, Michael Chertoff. If you want to defend a border fence between the U.S. and Mexico on the Orwellian grounds of security, fine. If you want to rely on two-faced appeals of defense for the national economy (even as jobs continue to be outsourced) as a means to justify said fence, do so. Hell, if you want to come out and just say, "you know, we're just racists here in this administration, and the brown, Mexican threat scares us SO!", I'd be fine with that. But you have no room to complain about the "environmental degradation" border-crossers cause when you work for the administration that has one of the worst environmental records ever.
