Read the article. They are part of the 1200 that Obama is sending.......only 224 to California. The Governor should know what happens when unwanted people cross a countrys border. Just consider Austria and Germany.

“He’ll be bach”, is placing a whole 224 troops on California’s Southern border as part of Obama’s plan to put 1200 troops on 2000 miles of U. S. border. Place those troops about a mile and a half apart, and we should see a real impact on illegal immigration. It will probably go up.

We all know these 224 troops will be used to wax ICE vehicles, do filing, and other critical needs type work.

Who are these jackasses kidding?

Schwarzenegger is such an oaf.

224 soldiers. Unless they are all snipers, this is not a serious effort,

Using the NG to hand out water bottles and pick up trash? More theater to make people think something is being done about the border. We have to be careful not to cut into our crooked politicians’ income from drug money....

Rick Perry is interested in winning reelection. Not doing anything to deal with immigration of illegal aliens and border control. Wish there was another choice. Bill White is not it. Read his record as mayor of Houston. Major mistakes there.

Since they’ll be unarmed, will the 225 troops be bringing lunch wagons with them? I’ll bet those illegals out there are starving under that hot sun.

It is all for show. No real intent to do anything to slow or prevent the influx and all it includes.

It is possible ... it is a step that might begin a true, meaningful increase in border control/closing.

New men in high offices ... first.
