#1 "make a big show of handing him over at the bridge"

In a bag. With the smashed GPS unit on top.

#2 Article misses the salient point: (Many) Mexicans believe Texas is theirs...

#3 Heh. They'd have a lot more luck claiming California.

#4 (Many) Mexicans believe Texas is theirs...

Yeah. We stole the half of Mexico with all the paved roads.

#5 Which is why we should finish what we started in 1848 and just annex the whole damn place. Commonwealth status.

#6 Hupeater, do you really want the headache of sorting out that corrupt mess?

#7 We've got all the responsibility now and none of the authority to make things better.

#8 Interesting point. This indicates that they are recruiting mules who do not know the terrain, and since they probably can't read maps, are reliant on GPS navigation.

This creates some possibilities.

#9 When the goddamn Mexican military and the Customs office openly violate our border, I believe it's a bit much. Obviously, this administration condones this, or it wouldn't be happening. What we need is a forced admission by Bush that he has no desire to control our borders. Then, we can turn it back to Texans. It will happen within one day. Case closed. Border sealed. No more entry, because Mexicans know it would be strictly a one way trip.

Bush is fighting several wars at once already. I think it's more a case of picking his timing.

He probably also disagrees with you on strategy. But I doubt he condones these aggressive pushes.

#11 All the Mexicans need do is stall for time until the demographic time-bomb forces changes...

#12 I'm a right wing republican, and I have my doubts about Bush on this border thingy. Soft on Fox, and all too friendly. What has it gotten us ? Erratic drivers and cheap lawn care ? At what cost ? Run away Social Security and healthcare, and the chronically unemployed remaining so.
Bad business this. I like the Mexys, they work hard, but they can come in the front door, damnit.
The next pres runs and wins on the WOT and closed borders. It might help to mention ISLAM with a scowl too. It might also help to question if the constitution should be amended to define a religion as supporting a good moral life not decapitation, etc. We need to identify the real enemy and stop the pussy footing.
Vote for me....I'll kick some ass.
