'Virtual Fence' Along Border To Be Delayed

By Spencer S. Hsu Washington Post Staff Writer
The Bush administration has scaled back plans to quickly build a "virtual fence" along the U.S.-Mexico border, delaying completion of the first phase of the project by at least three years and shifting away from linked, tower-mounted sensors and communications and surveillance gear, federal officials said yesterday.
Technical problems discovered in a 28-mile pilot project south of
Tucson prompted the change in plans, Department of Homeland Security officials and congressional auditors told a House subcommittee.
While the department took over that initial stretch Friday from
Boeing, authorities confirmed that Project 28, the initial deployment of its Secure Border Initiative network, did not work as planned or meet the needs of the U.S. Border Patrol............

because while we're spending money on building fences and bringing roger clemens up on charges our deployed men and women aren't being protected as they should.
