Obama Administration Considers Plan to Bolster Mexico’s Southern Border

Obama administration and Mexican government officials recently discussed creating a three-tier security system designed to protect Mexico’s southern border from drug and human traffickers, according to U.S. officials.

The border control plan calls for U.S. funding and technical support of three security lines extending more than 100 miles north of Mexico’s border with Guatemala and Belize. The border security system would use sensors and intelligence-gathering to counter human trafficking and drug running from the region, a major source of illegal immigration into the United States.

Teriffic. We wouldn’t want Mexico to have a porous border like the US.

WHY THE HELL ISN’T THE RNC USING THIS TO BASH THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION OVER THEIR HEAD REPEATEDLY??????

OH WAIT WE DON’T HAVE AN OPPOSITION PARTY IN THIS COUNTRY....

[fullchroma]

This is a satire piece, right? RIGHT?!!

[Pearls Before Swine]

Bi-zarro!

[ColdOne]

WTF?

[RginTN]

All the while these very politicians undermine laws enforcing our borders. Treasonous!

[Da Coyote]

I must have pushed the wrong button on my alternate universe machine.

And I thought that our present one was the worst.

[1rudeboy]

Why is everyone acting all surprised? It makes perfect sense with regard to Obama’s “Mexico First” strategy.

[Diogenesis]

The undocumented Tyrant NEVER acted like he was an American.
But who cares? Who cares?

[Doogle]

...just Odungo “tweaking” the American citizen...it’s that childish thing. Spend the tax dollars we don’t have....break the country in the name of liberalism....

[Blood of Tyrants]

I’m surprised that Obastard isn’t giving Mexico money to transport all their illegals from their southern border to ours.

[Rusty0604]

“The plan apparently is being kept secret within the administration over concerns that disclosure would fuel Republican critics of the administration’s record on border security.”

[MarkL]

Obama and his “crew” are immune to “irony.”

[SMARTY]

“O” is a stupid SOB and so is everyone who supports him.

(That includes the Republican Congressmen he has apparently anesthetized.)

[GraceG]

I wouldn’t be surprised if his next move was to secure the border between North and South Sudan to keep the fleeing Christians from going to South Sudan so they can be massacred by the Islamists in North Sudan....

And yet, Obama ignored all phone calls and requests from Governor Perry for help on our Texas border! What is the purpose of fighting drug trafficking on Mexico's lower border when the Mexicans are trafficking drugs and illegals into our country every day?

[kenavi]

Does it not occur to people here where those immigrants are headed?

[silverleaf]

ygbsm

isn’t that a violation of human rights to not allow Guatemalans to stampede into mehico, jam up the hospitals, and go on food stamps and welfare?

oh, wait...

[Ohioan]

What is the purpose of fighting drug trafficking on Mexico's lower border when the Mexicans are trafficking drugs and illegals into our country every day?

One's actions show you where the heart is!

[Rusty0604]

That is what this administration argues. But they are supposed to be protecting our country, not Mexico. And if tighter border security would work on Mexico’s border, why wouldn’t it work here?

[Purrcival]

I had to re-read that heading. First thought was, “Good — he’s finally going to strengthen our border with Mexi...huh???? Mexico’s SOUTHERN BORDER????? WHAT ABOUT ***OUR*** SOUTHERN BORDER...WITH MEXICO????????????”

This is just infuriating!!!!!

[potlatch]

I know, and we know where Obama’s black heart is......oh wait, is that racist? .....too bad....

[Defiant]

I think they need to have the DOJ sanctioned as a vexatious litigant.

[Defiant]

Oope, wrong thread.

[txmissy]

Same here.

[Rusty0604]

LOL your comment is a good one for any thread.

[wiggen]

Stuff that makes my head go boom.

[reed13k]

Why don’t we just offer them statehood 3-4 states (1 with Mex city in the middle) others sliced for rural content and be done with it - make the “southern border” easier to contain... Do it at the same time we split CO, bring on PR, split cali, maybe SE Illinois, PA T, Northern NY, and North/East Cali. We could get up to 57 real easy...

[MeshugeMikey]

which....differs somewhat.....form how barry sees himself

[kenavi]

When is a forward defense line a bad idea?

Especially when you can get a lot more fence for your money there than here.

[Rusty0604]

Some Texans think we should build a border fence around neighboring states, invade Mexico and kill off the cartels and corrupt cops and all the politicians, and start a new country. Mexico has a lot of natural resources and we could use them.

[GeronL]

If we are going to invade hot 3rd world crap holes and “nation build”, wouldn’t Mexico be the most logical place to start?

[KarlInOhio]

We don't want Guatemalans stealing the Mexican jobs that Americans won't do.

There has to be a hidden camera around here somewhere. The only explanation of the last 4.5 years is that this is some giant version of the TV show Punk'd.

[duffee]

I have a novel idea, let Mexico protect their Southern border and let the United States protect our Southern border.

[CivilWarBrewing]

Is there an html tag for ‘UNFREAKINBELIEVABLE’? Because there’s a compelling need for one lately. Is anyone keeping track of 0bama’s numerous impeachable offenses just this week and it’s only Thursday?

[CivilWarBrewing]

We need to stop the PEOPLE coming into the U.S. from Mexico, not the DRUGS coming into Mexico from Guatemala! Dumbass 0bama.

[lwd]

This is a fulfillment of an old NWO conspiracy. Back around 2003 there were articles post here on FR talking about a North American Union between Mexico, USA and Canada for monetary and security purposes. Remember the Amero? That maybe what we end up with when (not ‘if’) the dollar collapses.

[lentulusgracchus]

[Art.] .... system designed to protect Mexico’s southern border....

You're joking, right?

[kenavi]

You’re going to make me feel like Bartolome de las Casas!

[lentulusgracchus]

Especially when you can get a lot more fence for your money there than here.

Too, it'll be a lot easier for Obama's GOTV guys to get Mexicans into Stateside voting booths if the fence is on the other side of the Mexicans.

[upchuck]

Round and round we go. Worse and worse it gets.

Lord quickly come.

[Chode]

i feel like i'm taking crazy pills!!!

[Chode]

unreal ping...

[VerySadAmerican]

Why is the hell has the control over where money is spent? It’s the republicans who need to be impeached.

[neverdem]

BTTT!
