Obama Should Visit U.S.-Mexico Border to See the Threat to Americans Firsthand, Republican Senators Say
Why would Republicans think that a repeat of Bush's 6K troops on the border will accomplish anything any more than the first time? Obama's 1K troops will be used mainly to fight drugs and weapons traffickers. Too bad, more like 100K would be needed to really seal the border, requiring a national draft as they could never ever leave. Instead, why not think of the border as the problem and seek to erase it by dissolving the rogue elephant on the other side, the totally corrupt Mexican govt. that breeds poverty, crime and corruption in the first place? It can be done with the support of Mexico's people under the right conditions. See how at http://go.to/megamerge
