Someone please tell me this is a joke.
H.R. 418

Sec. 102) Amends the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (IIRIRA) to authorize the Secretary of Homeland Security (the Secretary), in the Secretary's sole discretion, to waive all laws as necessary to ensure expeditious construction of certain barriers and roads at the U.S. border. Prohibits courts, administrative agencies, and other entities from reviewing the Secretary's decision or from ordering relief for damages alleged to have resulted from such decision.

I know it just says certain barriers and roads, but if he decides to invoke this there can be no judicial review if he decides to take a very liberal interpretation of it.

I have little doubt that the Senate will pass this and Bush never vetos.

Michael Chertoff must be tickled pink at all the power he gets.

America is dieing... please discuss.
