If this is true, lets just blame Bush. After all, BUSH had the PRIME opportunity to address border security after 9 11 and failed to do so.

No. It wasn’t a missle. It was a bird. Yes, a really fast moving bird. Trust us.

There is no indication that this is terrorist related.

Glad it was reported in a timely manner. Guess they didn't want anybody to think it was a TERRORIST!

Probably just some undocumented workers shooting and planes Americans are too lazy to shoot down.

Probably an overgrown model rocket launched by some stupid kid. A real AA missile wouldn’t miss.

Yes, I believe near the same airport. Sounds like they have a better description of the event this time.

Still sounds like a bored kid with model rockets to me.
