[Mr. Jeeves]

The Obama administration continues to tolerate this national-security nightmare out of fear of offending the Mexican government and its allies in the National Council of La Raza.

Come on, Tom - you know those aren't the real reasons. We have a tacit agreement in place to accept any and all of Mexico's poor and malcontents to reduce the risk of a Communist revolution there. The government feels that any collateral damage illegals cause will be tiny compared to having an active Communist nation as a neighbor.

Come on, Tom - you know those aren’t the real reasons.

We have a tacit agreement in place to accept any and all of Mexico’s poor and malcontents to reduce the risk of a Communist revolution there. The government feels that any collateral damage illegals cause will be tiny compared to having an active Communist nation as a neighbor.”

True, but either way we’re doing the bidding of the Mexican government and the likes of LaRaza.

And our own corrupt politicians. Lots of money in this sad game.

Good point - it could be leftover (unexamined) cold war response ...
