Before you people wet your pants, read the article and the quote. I know reading takes time, but context is important.

Mr Perry said the current violence may require similar military action.

'The way that we were able to stop the drug cartels in Colombia was with a coordinated effort,' Mr Perry said.

'It may require our military in Mexico working in concert with them to kill these drug cartels and to keep them off of our border and to destroy their networks. 'I don’t know all the scenarios that are out there but I think it is very important that we work with them, to keep that country from failing.'

>>....our military in Mexico working in concert with them<<<

Working IN CONCERT with them???? Is he serious?

If he thinks the Mexican Government and the Mexican Army aren’t part of the cartels, and that they are WANTING to stop the flow of drugs, then he is way more stupid than I gave him credit for.

Thanks for posting that. Sounds reasonable and rational.

This story has been posted several times in the last few days and every one has been feeding frenzy for the rabid Perry haters. The truth always shines through.

I repeat:

This is insane. You would have the SAME situation in Mexico that we face in Afghanistan. You would NEVER be able to turn your back on a Mexicn soldier without wondering if a bullet was aimed at your back.

Thanks for clarifying his remarks. He’s insane!

I did read it. What part of it are you failing to comprehend? Perry wants to send the military, he just didn’t specify how much, how long, etc.
