A U.S. Border Patrol agent was held at gunpoint Sunday night by members of the Mexican military who had crossed the border into Arizona, but the soldiers returned to Mexico without incident when backup agents responded to assist.

Agents assigned to the Border Patrol station at Ajo, Ariz., said the Mexican soldiers crossed the international border in an isolated area about 100 miles southwest of Tucson and pointed rifles at the agent, who was not identified.

Well at least the agent didn’t shoot the punk in the arse. I mean, THAT would have been bad.

I didn’t realize that one of the two agents, Ramos or Compean’s wife was audited by the IRS over legal fees. The more I hear of that story the more it stinks.

Act of War !!!
It’s time to close the border and begin carpet bombing Mexican military bases. If that doesn’t work then “Shock and Awe” on Mexico City, followed by the annexing of Mexico as a hostile territorial holding of the United States.

Naw. You need a President with guts in the White House for a war.

Jorge El Segundo is a complicent agent in all of this.
Perhaps if McCain gets elected, he will loose his temper with the Mexican goverment and do what needs to be done - put our military along the southern border to interdict illegal invaders and Mexican military personnel. But then maybe he won’t. Probably depends on the phases of the moon.

Obama will do nothing if he gets in.

How did America ever get in such a mess to plagued by Obama, McCain, Bush and Hillary Clinton all at the same time? I think God is punishing us for abandoning Him by giving us idiots as leaders.

Yes!.....and immediately. No questions asked. This is a blatant attack from a foreign country on our soil.

Oh, we depend on their oil, I forgot. Bush must use 3 tubes of chap-stick every day from all the smooching of Mexican butt he does. It’s a wonder he hasn’t injured himself from kissing ass so much. What a worthless RINO president he has been.

Yes, it is war.

Yet both Obama and McCain are willing to surrender to the invasion.

You will know the Mexican army is serious about a fight when it arrives with a HUMMVEE with 2 soldiers in it followed by a Mercedes with 4 lawyers in it, and it followed by a live action news truck!

They know they can win that fight.

The Washington Times headline reads ....

Border patrol agent held at gunpoint ... Officers fear Mexican military encounters will turn violent

Using the word "fear" to describe American response, action, lack of action, etc.; is an insult to American people.

My dictionary defines "fear" as ... a feeling of anxiety and agitation caused by the presence or nearness of danger ...

Don’t count on McCain - he even voted against the Cronyn amendment and is in a frenzy for amnesty.

It’s time to round up every illegal Mexican and deport them asap. I don’t care how much it costs. We can borrow more $$ from our Chi-com friends. Then build that damn fence he was supposedly in support of. LIAR!

Duncan Hunter was the man for the presidency, but forces bigger than we sheeple stepped in and we end up with the SUPER-RINO McClame. What a joke our country has become.

WE NEED CONSERVATIVE LEADERSHIP.....NOW. WE ALSO DEMAND THAT THE BORDER AGENTS, RAMOS AND CAMPEAN BE RELEASED TODAY!!!!!!!!!!

It just may be up to the people to step in and straighten our country out before it’s entirely too late.

Historically more accurate:

WWBJPD - What Would Black Jack Pershing Do?

Mr President,

Confirmation that once again Mexican Troops are invading US lands for the purposes of smuggling people and drugs into this country, and are holding legal US authorities at gunpoint.

SO, Sir, whatcha gonna do about it?

You said it - "a blatant attack from a foreign country on our soil." I have yet hear Bush taking action.

The biggest threat to this country comes not from Iraq but from amnesty, the open borders, and the hordes of illegal aliens - invaders - roaming the country. The planes on 9/11 did not take off from a foreign country but from American soil.
