Daily Mail ^ | 10/07/2010 | Staff

Texas Governor Rick Perry has given Mexico's president 48 hours to contact him with information on the ongoing efforts to find the body of an American man reportedly shot dead on a border lake.

Mr Perry said he hoped the body of David Hartley will be recovered by the time Felipe Calderón contacts him.

'If not, we're not looking hard enough,' he declared on Wednesday.

Mr Hartley's wife Tiffany claims her husband was shot by Mexican pirates on Falcon Lake last week as they returned over the U.S. border on jet skis.

Rick Perry, Kay Bailey and Coryn are open-border RINOs. TX GOP members are Democrat like just like FL’s open-border DIABLOS and RINOs.

48 hours... or what? Put the National Guard on the border? I hate ultimatums which have no backup.

“48 hours... or what? Put the National Guard on the border? I hate ultimatums which have no backup.”

That was my first thought just reading the headline to the article.

Send in armed military boats and recover the bodies. Shoot and destroy any Mexican boat that comes within range of the recovery. It is time to show Mexico we are done. America won’t do it. We are the Worlds biggest bunch of cowards.

Empty threats Rick?

Something about this story for some reason just isn’t adding up for me.

Will the Obama administration sue him? After all, giving toothless ultimatums to foreign countries is solely a power of the federal government.

*Or what? Texas will declare war?*

If they do, they’ll have plenty of volunteers!

Why isn’t The One making these demands? It’s been a week and our federal government has done nada to help this family.

Hell, send in the military craft, but support them with Spectres so the flight crews can have some fun if any mexicans get in the way...:-)
