highlights: there is a growing relationship between extremist groups and drug traffickers, well entrenched at our southern border.
Known associates of terror groups have mixed with some of the same document forgers and illicit service providers

Many argue it's impossible to 'seal' our Southern border. That's simply wrong. And while our major focus should be on the prevention of WMD importation, we can't lose sight of the affect amnesty will have on our form of government.
To respond to your earlier post to me would those, who believe travel in Mexico is safe and recommend it, also recommend visiting gang-controlled areas in our major cities? After all, the drug cartels have turned Mexico into equally an equally dangerous area.
