Pelosi suggests Normandy fence for the border, but not a wall
by Susan Ferrechio
 | January 31, 2019 12:20 PM



House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday she could support a border security deal that adds new Normandy fencing along about 30 miles of open border.

But she won’t bring a bill to the floor that includes Trump’s vision for a wall or steel-slat barrier, she said.

“There is not going to be any wall money in the legislation,” Pelosi told reporters Thursday. Pelosi controls the House floor, and her approval of a border security deal is required for legislation to make it to the president’s desk by a Feb. 15 deadline.

Pelosi said she’d back Normandy fencing used to finish approximately 700 miles authorized by the 2006 Secure Fence Act. A 2017 government report determined about 50 miles of that authorized fencing are incomplete, although Republicans have put forward higher estimates. Pelosi said only 30 miles are incomplete.

Yeah Nanc. That fence will really keep people out. The reason they call it a Normandy Fence is because only the French would be deterred by it.

BTW if a fence is good, why is a wall not better?

Someone needs to tell this senile old witch that the "Normandy fence" did not work … and it's being replaced.

You know, if you were to station .50 caliber machine guns at 150-yard intervals with interlocking fields of fire along the line, it might just work....

Which would work until five minutes after the next Rat President is sworn in.

I have a better idea.  How about we put a Normandy fence around the perimeter of Nancy's house and unload the next caravan in front of her house.   She can tell us how well it's working!

I've been reading on this a little, and I have to say this is the most idiotic idea I've heard on the subject.  Even worse than Jersey Barricades.

Fer Chrissakes, we aren't defending ourselves from Jeeps and half-tracks (and tanks) here.  Talk about materiel mismatch.

Perhaps she was being a smartazz.  Definitely an extreme waste of our money.

Or a construction project dreamed up by a mastermind determined to fail in the endeavor, intent on keeping the borders open for conquest.

Benedict Arnold was a piker compared to this, in the leaving defenses open department.  All he did was leave a river open.
