Maybe we can get it done at a nearby federal prison or something.
Gitmo maybe, but I think that’s closing.
Some of us may want to show some support for Colombia.

Of course it is absolutely no surprise that FARC has international support from Bolivia, Ecuador, Brazil, Uruguay (especially tragic case), and Venezuela. Chavez has placed himself at the head of this marxist coalition, replacing Fidel and a now weakened Cuba.
But there is another layer, IMHO. That is the CHICOM. They are effectively removing Latin America from our sphere of influence to wage economic (at first) war against us. They have many economic weapons, not the least of which could be truly massive waves of illegal immigration. It's already started from Brazil, where there are enough aspiring emigrants to literally dwarf the Mexican movement northward. Apparently the long-term plan is that we are to be burdened with all the problems of Latin America, and progressively fewer of the benefits of trade with the region.
I cannot help thinking that this is the reason Bush, et al are pushing the NAU. Perhaps they intend to draw the line at the Southern Border of Mexico, hoping against hope that Mexicans don't topple over in a Marxist revolution of their very own.
