NOT IN FRONT OF THE CHILDREN:
Plenty of Holes Seen In a 'Virtual Fence' (Spencer S. Hsu and Griff Witte, September 21, 2006, Washington Post)
The selection of Boeing Co. to erect a "virtual fence" along 6,000 miles of U.S. border marks a potential turning point in the government's long quest to stop illegal immigration, but its success hinges on overcoming obstacles that doomed past efforts, funding shortages and other problems with the country's immigration controls, according to experts and former U.S. officials.
Shhhh...it's not supposed to work, just give the wahoos something to play with.

Not true. It's supposed to work just enough to make a majority recognize what we're losing by having it.
