This man would consider building a wall on the U.S.-Canadian border


When presidential aspirants try to mindlessly out-Trump Trump, it can lead them into ridiculous positions:
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker is putting a new twist on the topic of securing the border, a staple among the GOP candidates running for president, by pointing north.

Walker said in an interview that aired Sunday that building a wall along the country's northern border with Canada is a legitimate issue that merits further review...

Walker said some people in New Hampshire have asked the campaign about the topic.

"They raised some very legitimate concerns, including some law enforcement folks that brought that up to me at one of our town hall meetings about a week and a half ago. So that is a legitimate issue for us to look at," Walker said.
More details at the StarTribune.  I do hope this is the last post I write about Scott Walker.

  1. But who will he force to build it? Canadians or Mexicans?

  2. Yes, folks, remember to always use genuine GOP-brand knee pads when addressing your constituency.

  3. Didn't Russia do that a while ago ?
    Apple Pie, Maple or Iron,
    wall, forest or curtain.
    Those that want to be politicians are probably the worst choice.
    Just a collection of people, sensible, caring and intelligent, is what is needed to oversee a country.

  4. Fences can be used to keep people out or to keep people from escaping. Something to think about...

  5. Wow, great idea. Spend billions (guessing the cost) to build a wall between you and one of your oldest allies. Was this wall going to cross the Great Lakes also? Better up the cost. WE Canadians love and respect our neighbours to the south but as someone once said,"Canadians watch American politics like Americans watch Honey Boo Boo". Best wishes to all.
