As if this hadn't occurred to AQ? Gimme a break. Food isn't the only risk pouring in over the borders. Consider all the white powder coming in by the ton. Now realize that FARC in Colombia is working with Hugo Chavez and the Cubans. Now recall that Cuba has a well developed bio-tech capability.
Bush had damned well get control of the borders or he's likely to be wearing it around his neck and the Republican Party with him. I don't balme Thompson a bit for expressing his frustration.
But aren't the drones equipped with cameras protecting us from uninvited guests?
And aren't the only people swarming over from the Mexican border merely Arab Moslem Mexican tomato pickers and gardeners who deal in "food preparation"?
Dubya & Co. had better stick the finger in the dike on ALL COUNTS.
And the only way he had to express frustration, after 4 years in the post, is to make a cheap parting shot to this President on the nightly news? Puhleeze, I just don't buy it.
