Stupid Border Tricks

And everybody wonders why we need to pay more attention to the Border...

A globe-trotting Atlanta lawyer with a dangerous strain of tuberculosis was allowed back into the U.S. by a border inspector who disregarded a computer warning to stop him and don protective gear, officials said Thursday. The inspector has been removed from border duty.

The unidentified inspector explained that he was no doctor but that the infected man seemed perfectly healthy and that he thought the warning was merely "discretionary," officials briefed on the case told The Associated Press. They spoke on condition of anonymity because the matter is still under investigation.

So we have Border Patrol agents who can't figure out the computer warnings to not let somebody in the country? Has anybody figured out if they can understand the warnings not to let suspected terrorists into the country? And people want to throw open the rights of citizenship for people who are here illegally who may also be in the country despite warnings against allowing their entry?

This is completely unacceptable and the administration needs to get to the bottom of it....fast.
