The US military might have to take five minutes from its other duties to smash this lunatic.

Hmm, something tell me that the US advisors there to help in the drug war are going to be reassigned to other nonassigned duties.

Well, if your economy is tanking, you need an external enemy to focus the anger of the population on. That’s why economies at war do so well. The people are willing to make sacrifices for victory, which might be greater than the sacrifices they would be unwilling to make for a tyrant. It has the potential to get interesting.

Lets not get carried away. Moving tanks & troops to the border doesn’t mean they are ever going to cross the border. It’s probably just a lot of bluster.

War is always a convenient excuse for shortages and hardship.

Warm up the B-52s and B-1s and B-2s...... crush Hugo’s army and his bloated posturing will collapse like the farcical fraud that he is.....

That scumbag should be taken out like Noriega was taken out. And like Castro should have been taken out decades ago.

Hope people like $6.00/gal gasoline. When it gets there, it would sort of regain parity with the $1.25 daily price of The New York Times. (When I was in high school, early sixties, the Times cost a nickel and a gallon of gas was a quarter.)
