Two completed bombs?
What were they up to? Who were they? Mexicans? AlQaeda? Would drug smugglers be using bombs? Guns, I can understand, but this seems unusual.

Yes, this is the border our Presidente want to KEEP OPEN. Such a fine border, indeed. Pathway for criminal illegals, drug dealers, and God knows, what else? Only a full wall (not fence) will keep the border crime, which includes illegal crossings, down to a manageable level -- yet El Jefe Presidente continues to 'bad-mouth' anyone who stands against ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION and closing our borders to illegal and clandestine traffic. Just like he did in the SOU address. He has even turned on his OWN PARTY members who resist it.
The only people happy about this are the Mexicans who have a free pass to break our laws, and GET REWARDED FOR IT. IMHO, that is why Tom Ridge quit.

Jorge Arbusto worry about North Korea smuggling on their tiny border?
To: Boston Blackie
since the 'stuff' is military issue and mr. chertoff isn't worried, I can move along with the general standard issue as spoken by our mr.chertoff, and not be concerned one little bit thanks to the spoken out of his mouth?
yep...that's the ticket.
so mr. chertoff what else are they hiding here on the border???
just as one should have expected.
crickets.

This is not for drug operations. This is for something else. Hmm

Brought across by Bush's guests.
I have finally concluded we will never be safe as long as Bush is in power.

Unfrickinbelievable. That wall should've been built years ago. I fear it's too late.

The seizures occurred during separate raids on homes in Laredo over the past week by task force members from ICE; the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; and the FBI, along with officers from the Laredo Police Department. In an article I read yesterday on this same subject they say that the weapons were seized on three different dates which leads me to conclude that they were seized from at least three separate caches.
The Border Patrol only catches about 1 out of 4 illegal immigrants. Lets hope that their record for seizing weapons is somewhat better or there are a lot of weapons and bomb caches that have not yet been seized and are still in the hands of the narco-terrorists.

Well we can hope, but considering the odds it's not too likely is it?
