Bush promised us 6,000 new border patrol agents by 2008

Yet he only asked for funding for 1,000. What happened to the other 5,000 he promised?
The debate occurred as the White House sent Congress a formal request for $1.9 billion to cover the costs of steps on immigration that President George W. Bush announced earlier in the week.

Bush is requesting funds to pay for 1,000 new border agents, as well as the cost of fences and surveillance aircraft. It would also help cover the cost of deploying National Guard troops along the border.

When you have Bill Clinton stating that he totally agrees with GB's border control plan and immigration, as stated in the below news story; you know it is flawed plan.
