It's America's fault we failed to enact enough of the Wee Wee's socialist agenda to keep you Mexicans from killing each other

The United States needs to do more to reduce demand for illegal drugs if it wants to help reduce the violence that has wracked its southern neighbor, Michelle Obama said Wednesday.
The first lady of the United States made that comment after meeting with her Mexican counterpart, Margarita Zavala de Calderon, whose "New Life Centers" help with prevention and education so that fewer young people will become addicted.
"We need to do more of the same," said Obama, who cited education and opportunity as key elements to any successful anti-drug campaign.
"What we do know in both countries is that, if young people have opportunities, if they know that they're going to get a solid education, perhaps go to college or at least get a job that's going to pay a wage that is going to allow them to live a decent life and care for their families and grandchildren, they're going to make the better choice.
"But so often, in our countries, those opportunities don't exist," she told CNN en Espanol's Juan Carlos Lopez.
More than 22,000 people have died in drug violence since Mexican President Felipe Calderon declared war on narcotrafficking cartels in December 2006, a government report said Tuesday.

Waiting for her to be mocked like Nancy Reagan...
No medical marijuana in Obamacare?
Oh, well, that’ll do it.
Is she saying “Just say ‘no’”?
Gee, that worked so well last millenium.
Is there some irony here from Mrs. Obama that i’m missing?
Hey Michelle, your husband's policies and lunacy are making many Americans turn to drugs. It is the only coping strategy we have left. Stop your husband and solve America's drug problem. There, solved.
The libs think they can crontrol both sides of supply and demand by just issuing laws... Silly idiots.
Federal Demand Control. Sounds like a winner. Cough.
Her husband used illegal drugs, and was able to become president. Such a nice example he set.
Is it just me, or does Ms. Bambi *always* look like she’s about to take a chunk out of someone’s heinie with her claws and teeth?

Hmmmm...wonder if maybe a BORDER FENCE AND PROTECTION might help?
What is the significance of the fist on the podium? Looks like that of an agitator not one coming in peace and compromise.
WHOA! What’s with the red fist on the lecturn?
Next step: introduce more anti-drug programs into our kindergartens and grade schools. That’ll help, just like sex-education programs have helped solid build families and traditional morality, and have helped to prevent STDs and unwanted pregnancies.
First hour class: Practice putting condoms on a banana.
Second hour class: Practice how not to use crack cocaine.
Third hour class: Sing hymns in honor of Obama.
Fourth hour class: Could it possibly be time for a little reading, writing, and ‘rithmatic?
No: it’s lunch hour, and then recess.
If all the Americans (and illegals) were to all hold hands, that would mean that none of them could hold onto a crack pipe!
Is that red fist the new symbol of “the one”? That is scary!
As always with the Obama’s it’s America’s fault....
