I thank you for bearing with me while I attempt to get the facts on exactly what is happening here.

Needless to say, if these chargess are true, my perception of this administration is going to change dramatically.

In my mind, the headlines of all newspapers, and all news media "talking heads" should be screaming about this.

I don't know if you've been following this weeks news about the border area --- more proof that Mexican military and police are heavily involved with drug smuggling, torture and murder.

Newest police crime scandal rocks Mexico: Juarez lawmen linked to bodies in back yard

Involvement of corrupt police and military units in the lucrative narcotics trade has been a long-standing problem in Mexico.

Successive presidential administrations have for more than a decade routinely purged and reorganized the federal police force, to little avail. Macedo announced earlier this week that another purge of some 900 federal agents was under way.

Similar crackdowns have roiled Mexico's army and navy with about the same results. And state and local police in drug-producing or border states, and along the corridors through which Colombian cocaine is smuggled, are often found to be in the pay of traffickers.
