Typical Nero Zero bama say something, do nothing finger to the wind statement."We're going to examine whether and if National Guard deployments would make sense and under what circumstances they would make sense," Obama said during an interview with journalists for regional papers, including a McClatchy reporter.
"I don't have a particular tipping point in mind," he said. "I think it's unacceptable if you've got drug gangs crossing our borders and killing U.S. citizens."
The idea of troops on the southern border has been ongoing for a couple of decades! Most politics is too slow, but commonsense politics is even slower to nonexistent!
Unacceptable? How about a Clear and Present Danger, Mr. President?
Didn’t they say just yesteray that NO troops would go to the border? Ah yes, but today IS another day.
WASHINGTON — President Obama weighed in Wednesday on the escalating drug war on the U.S.-Mexico border, saying that he was looking at possibly deploying National Guard troops all three of them he said.
He THINKS it’s unacceptable for drug gangs to kill US citizens.
I really don’t understand why citizens don’t look through their glass towards the southern border.
...are sure on this, Barry? I mean, really sure that it's not acceptable?
< /sarcasm >
I think he will find NG troops that are lefties and that will be the start of his *civilian army*.
Ping!
Fox News reports: Obama not keen in sending troops to border. THE MAN NEEDS HIS DRUGS!!!!!
This is not going to happen. Obama doesn’t want to militarize the border. Grrr....
They transport the drugs acrossm take em to ths citoes, and have a whole Mexican Mafia set up in the major cities across America. These are the same aliens that Obama will hire for his ACORN offices and his proposed Civilian defence force.
(I am surprised that the Texas Miiltia has not been involved by this point)
Seal OFF the US Border. Stop Illegal Aliens from entering, and stop the associated drug traffic.
No wonder Obama is going to have further study of the situation. He wants them to get stronger, not weaker!
These Mexican drug networks are the future soldiers for Obama's "community work"
GEEEEZZZZZZZ! Is Jerry Brown (”Moonbeam”), Californias current A.G. (Planning a run for Governor again.) one of the 300 or so “Advisors” to Obama?
I recall his favorite delay tactic during his alleged Governorship of California waaaaay back when was “I’ll take that under advisement”, but nothing...I mean nothing would get done about whatever the dilemma of concern was.
This I expect of Obama about the same action as Jerry Brown.
Yeah he’s a Democrap.
I thought he wasn’t sending anyone under any circumstances.
What people seem to be missing here is that 0bama wants to put troops at our border for the same reason the Soviets had troops on theirs. It’s not going to be to keep people out. It’s going to be to keep them in.
• A failure by the Mexican political system to curtail lawlessness and violence could result of a surge of millions of refugees crossing the US border to escape the domestic misery of violence, failed economic policy, poverty, hunger, joblessness, and the mindless cruelty and injustice of a criminal state. http://americansentry.blogtownhall.com/2009/02/25/the_deteriorating_state_of_mexican_national_security.thtml
