More than 134,000 people signed a petition asking the Obama administration to demand the release of U.S. Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi from a Mexican prison. Tahmooressi, who is reportedly suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, has been imprisoned for nearly five months after being arrested for unintentionally crossing into Mexico with firearms.
The White House responded to the popular petition on Friday, calling for Mexican authorities to handle the Marines case expeditiously rather than demanding his release.

Prayers sent up for Tahmooressi. If only we had a real commander-in-chief.

We would get immediate response just by closing a few key border crossings for 24 hours.

That is expeditiously in Mexican time, of course.

Yep, and we’d get an even faster response by threatening to send back a few thousand illegals already here.

iF Tahmoressi was Black and the blacks all started rioting again, Holder would make the Mexicacas release him.

Forget about how the Mexican government treats him. His own government doesn’t care about him.
To: sheikdetailfeather
I’ve got an idea: If Russia is allowed to reach into their neighbors’ territory without condemnation, and for much less noble causes..
Why CAN’T we get a group of ex-Military to form a team and conduct a “mission” to rescue Sgt. Tahmooressi?

Send the Marines and The Old Guard to rescue him - as in the Battle of Chapultepec, in September 1847, was a United States victory over Mexican forces holding Chapultepec Castle west of Mexico City during the Mexican-American War....

Sorry about the triple post! :( Yeah - looking at his ugly mug is bad enough once - but you made us do three times!
Could have been worse though - could have been his wife (shiver).
