Every U.S. law enforcement agency knows that many of these border incursions are not accidents. They are symptoms of a growing anarchy within Mexico and along our border.

The Mexican government must stop making excuses, stop treating crime as a public relations problem, and start dealing vigorously with the deep corruption in its border states.

Yeah right! We may as well expect the entire Mexican government to step down and admit that it is corrupt.

Shut down the border for 90 days and prohibit all wire transfers of money between the U.S. and Mexico. Watch the Mexican government capitulate and/or collapse. Either way, it would be an improvement over the status quo.

Washington With Its Biggest Test

If this is a test, the Senate is about to get an "F".

President Bush failed a long time ago.

Tancredo in 2008!

If they would let me in the Bush ranch this weekend, I would tell him myself. (FAT CHANCE) I cannot believe the Feds know this crap is going on and refuse to acknowledge it to the American public (other than a stupid travel advisory) or do a damn thing to sway Mexico. Gov. Perry realizes what's happening but, he's not going to do anything in an election year.

*PING*

IBTBB?

In before the Bush 'Bots?

A big pro-Tancredo Bump!

The most important thing is that our federal government must start leveling with the American people about the dangers and the scope of the problem. We must secure the border through whatever combination of physical barriers, technology and manpower that will get the job done. As a short-term solution, deploying the National Guard to back up the Border Patrol also makes a lot of sense.

Unless you are a residente of La Hacienda Blanco...

Every U.S. law enforcement agency knows that many of these border incursions are not accidents. They are symptoms of a growing anarchy within Mexico and along our border. It is time for Secretary Chertoff and the President to wake up and confront the problem honestly.


Ahead Sell-Out Factor 10, Mr. Chertoff!

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chetoff downplayed the significance of the event by saying that most Mexican military incursions over the years have been "accidental." The Border Patrol station in El Paso was told by headquarters to avoid speculation on the identity of the smugglers, and the El Paso FBI office said it is not part of any investigation.

------------------------------------------------

Dear Washington, D.C,-

WAKE UP & SMELL THE INVASION!

Sincerely,

The People

I hate to say this... it really pains me to do so, but Bush Lies when it comes to the border lawlessness. He just flatout, baldfaced lies like a rug. Fibs, makes up stories, denies, misleads, makes counteraccusations. I don't hope this policy literally blows up in their faces, but when it does I'm not going to be very sympathetic. Because he doesn't seem to be very sympathetic to us.

They'll get right on this, like in a decade or two.
