Another tunnel apparently dug by drug smugglers has been found beneath the U.S.-Mexico border in Nogales, Ariz.

Scioli said it’s the 63rd smuggling tunnel found beneath the border in the Nogales area since October 1995, and the 16th since last October.

How can this be? Diane Feinstein came to San Diego, about two years ago in a photo op, with the famous tunnel found here, and proclaimed that tunnels were illegal...I am not sure if she got legislation passed on the issue or not, but it made a good front page photo..

Maybe the Mexicans and the Pali’s can start a tunneling exchange program.

Let’s get the Hussein Expressway started,

It began a long time ago and many politicians are instrumental in seeing it progress to YourCity USA (enforcement of immigration law - now that's just WRONG in their demented minds). Don't believe those unemployment statistics - those people are just a bunch of (job) losers.

Concerned about those murderous gangs from south of the border? Not to worry - its "population control" without stimulus money to fund it.

When tunnels are outlawed, only outlaws will have them.

And here we are.
