"You sound like one of the libs"

Call me what you wish, but I believe with all the problems Mexico poses to our security, we should take it, by force if necessary and make it what it should be.  If that means sending in 50,000 to 100,000 US Marshals to establish law and order after the military has neutralized their military and police forces, so be it.  And if it takes half a century to accomplish like it did our "Old West", it will be worth the time.  For a century and a half we danced the soft shoe where Mexico is concerned.  It's time to kick some butt.  We took a third or half of Mexico in the eighteen hundreds, and made great societies throughout those regions.  It's time to take the rest, crush the corruption forever, and allow the good people in those areas to build the type of communities we enjoy.

I can't apologize for sounding like one of the libs if that's what your take is.

Well, now why didn't you say so in the first place! Gotta respect an opinion like that. I don't totally agree, but I respect it. They have an awful lot of people down there, and you think we have problems now, try having the whole country as a welfare client state. In fact I think they'd like to be a welfare client state of the US -- with the right to kvetch and quibble and undermine like the socialist rats of course.

So I disagree, but I have to respect a man with an action plan.

Thank you for noting that California is one of the "great societies." It helps to balance out the common Cali-bashing around here. We're not as great as we once were, but we're hanging in there. O, for the days when Chicanos crossed over to vote for Reagan. They respect a no-nonsense leader and many have a proud history of service in the U.S. military.

I don't think your plan will happen, but I like it and your profile page.
