"Run and Hide - That is our response?"

Let one Mexican military soldier shoot a US Border Patrol agent and I'll be screaming at the top of my lungs to everyone who answers the phone at every line for the White House and Congress to march the 4th ID into Mexico City. I hope everyone here will join me in that persuit if that's what it comes down to. This absolutely sickens me.

Send ATF down there to prosecute those illegal imports of NFA weapons. They need something to do and it is right up their alley. Kinda like spy vs spy.

Any conflict with Mexican troops would be a severe blow to US relations. I doubt the Mexicans would let it happen.

We should not fear engaging the Mexican Army at the border - we should look forward to it. Give us an excuse to sweep into that country, occupy it, and take over their oil reserves. And while we are at it, do a little nation-building, including teaching ENGLISH at all levels, and reforming the government to conform to a truly representative republic based on constitutional priciples and regular relatively fraud-free elections.

Then we might even annex the whole country to the US, once all these other objectives are accopmlished.

Noting that elements of the Mexican military were posing a threat to American agents and civilians along the border, he said, "We're no safer today than we were on Sept. 12," in reference to the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

BINGO! Border security and immigration enforcement are President Bush's two biggest leadership failures.

Indeed, the confrontations have become so routine the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has issued written orders that agents carry with them regarding "what to do" if confronted by Mexican military units

Everyone remember this story the next time you are at the airport.

I posted on another thread about how GWB's address last night rings hollow when you take in consideration his apathy on the U.S. Borders. Bushbots were not happy as they belief Bush is beyond reproach.

"SHOOT BACK! With intent!'

Give me a break - GW and the RINOs would be asking for the execution of any border patrol agent who might defend himself. GW has no respect from me after calling our citizens "vigilantes". GW is a sell out and two faced backstabber who claims he cares about Americans and our security while allowing rapists, murderers, drug dealers and terrorists to walk into our country scott free only to artificially deflate wages for working americans and help big business.

I'm not sure if you were listening, but a lot of the Mexican military is on the take with the local drug cartels. If the cartel says no one touches their drugs, you can bet those soldiers (many of whom have been trained by the US military to fight the drug cartels) will do whatever's necessary to carry out their other employers' wishes.

Be careful all of the moderators of these boards are bushbots and if you say anything critical of GW you may get banned as I have. I am hardcore conservative - review my previous posts, but if you dont follow the RINO line you find that you not welcomed.

We could've had it already, when we took what's now the American southwest.
