Where would we be without lib hypocrites in the Senate? On the Border Fence Kathryn Jean Lopez The Corner Also from the Washington Times—the kinda thing that makes you grateful for newspapers like the Washington Times: <<< Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, the Massachusetts Democrat who was the only person to argue against the proposal on the floor yesterday, worried that it would cost too much. The San Diego fence, he noted, wound up being 200 percent over budget. "The real cost ended up being $3.8 million per mile," said Mr. Kennedy, who has been the principal backer of Boston's "Big Dig," a highway tunnel funded largely by the federal government that has run about $1 billion per mile. >>> corner.nationalreview.com
