Gabby Giffords Votes For Vulnerability

Our enemies within the U.S. House of Representatives defeated a proposal by U.S. Rep. Trent Franks, (Republican AZ) last week, that would have built an 854 mile, double layered security fence along the Mexican border. Only 13 miles of the border fence approved last year have been built. Why is that? Why did my representative Gabrielle Giffords, a Democrat, vote against it?

"With over 4,000 people crossing our southern border illegally every day, our border remains one of our country's most critical national security vulnerabilities. In order to carry out an act of terrorism, a militant Islamist simply needs a porous border and a dangerous weapon," said Franks.

Why are our representatives and senators deliberately allowing us to remain vulnerable? When we are attacked, they will be have much to answer for and answer they will!
