Dept. of Dirty Mexicans:
Chertoff blames crappy environment on illegal immigrants

Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007

It seems as if Bill O’Reilly isn’t the only one suffering from foot-in-mouth syndrome. Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff tried to pawn of the construction of 670-mile-long fence along the U.S.-Mexico border as an environmental issue.

Turns out, though, that the fence can actually hurt the environment worse, cutting animals off from water and spoiling the view. But Chertoff is trying to convince critics that most of these environmental concerns have been and can be further addressed. Not only that, but the fence actually helps the enviroment:

Illegal migrants really degrade the environment. I’ve seen pictures of human waste, garbage, discarded bottles and other human artifact in pristine areas. And believe me, that is the worst thing you can do to the environment.
