that would be THIS JANET:

In a remarkably candid letter to members of Congress, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said her department could have to delay pursuits of illegal immigrants while waiting for horses to be brought in so agents don't trample protected lands, and warns that illegal immigrants will increasingly make use of remote, protected areas to avoid being caught.

The documents also show the Interior Department has charged the Homeland Security Department $10 million over the past two years as a "mitigation" penalty to pay for damage to public lands that agencies say has been caused by Border Patrol agents chasing illegal immigrants.

Janet needs to talk to Ken Salazar-
Ken is bent on rounding up and moving wild Nevada horses from open lands to ‘corrals all thru out the Midwest”.

In many ways this is just cruel.
If the Border Patrol needs horses- the BLM horses can be trained and used by the Border Patrol.
If that isn’t good enough- there are thousands of horses going to auctions that are already broke to ride, etc. Their owners cannot afford to feed them any longer due to the economy.

For a number of months, I was getting calls about “free horses”. I have my own to take care of.

Wow, I would have been worried that he might have Ebola or H1N1. Wonder if they are even checking that possibility out.
