New incursion of Mexican military into US with drug smugglers In an armed standoff on Monday along the Rio Grande about 50 miles east of El Paso, thirty US law enforcement officers confronted by heavily armed Mexican soldiers and civilian smugglers who had crossed into the United States. After reinforcements arrived, the Mexican eventually returned to Mexico leaving behind a Cadillac Escalade with 1,477 pounds of marijuana. Chief Mike Doyal said candidly, “It happens quite often here. It's not the immigrants coming over for jobs we're worried about. It's the smugglers, Mexican military and the national threat to our borders that we're worried about.” Mexican officials denied any incursions and Chertoff played down the reports and suggested that they were coincidental mistakes, but border agents believe differently. One border agent speaking on the condition of anonymity said “We’re sitting ducks. The government has our hands tied.” Members of Congress have requested the House Judiciary Committee, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, the House Homeland Security Committee and the House International Relations Committee to investigate the incursions. In different time in the United States, the admiinistration and its leader would already have been impeached or worse. Posted by: Bobby on October 18, 2007 02:53 PMThere is several military bases in the area, why not scramble a jet and flame some of these vehicles and then let the Mexican govt see what is left and where it is sitting Posted by: jmac on October 18, 2007 02:57 PMAnd no one cares EXCEPT the legal American Citizens of The United States of AMERICA .... Bastille(U.S) day, people. There is only so much more we are going to take. Posted by: cicerores on October 18, 2007 03:36 PMWill Chertoff still be "playing down the reports" when those machine guns are pointed at the Capital in Austin? Drug cartels controlling the Mexican military, their police and their politicians. No wonder the corruption cannot be eradicated, or their society reformed. Its 'comprehensive' from top to bottom. Build the Wall. Posted by: Jeebie on October 18, 2007 03:38 PMCRUISE MISSILES SOUND APPLICABLE Make our side of the border a cruise missile testing area and accidently [deny it was done on purpose] do the tests in areas and at the same time where their troops and drug smugglers come in. Our satellite surveillance should help too. Posted by: Softwarengineer on October 18, 2007 04:35 PMThe Mexican Army is Bush's army that is why he does nothing about it. The Mexican Army is just another front in the war to end America and the middle working class. If our border guards are sent to prison for shooting one of Bush's drug runners, one could only imagine the fate that would await one of our soldiers for shooting one of Bush's Mexican drug soldiers. While our brave troops are bogged down in Iraq, Bush can soon launch a full frontal attack on America with his Mexican Army- sound ridiculous, NO- this moron's "wet dream" is the North American Union. Posted by: Future Day Laborer on October 18, 2007 05:05 PMRight Softwarengineer! Our troops need some good practice with rpg's. Let them practice firing some right up the tailpipes of these Mexican vechicles. Posted by: marg on October 18, 2007 05:54 PMTanks and air support. Light em up. Posted by: arthur on October 18, 2007 06:53 PMDan, that report is from last year. I suggest that you change your narrative or remove the post. Regards, Horace Posted by: Horace on October 18, 2007 07:14 PMThis story is beyond belief. First that it happened This story is beyond belief. First that it happened too bad all the us troops are in iraq helpinf the shiite crsecent IRAN and MALIKI and are useless from protecting america, americans rise up or shut up Posted by: impeachbush on October 18, 2007 10:07 PMThe outrage perpertrated by BUSH and his cronies is becoming more and more flagrant. Obviously he thinks he can get away with anything. What on earth is preventing congress from IMPEACHING this Traitor!!!??? Posted by: Mary on October 18, 2007 10:20 PMThe fact that anyone in the government would treat this as a P.R. problem and not a tactical problem is an abdication of sworn duty. When a foreign military enters this country - with or without their government's knowledge - that is an invasion, period. There is no other way to describe it without lying. Posted by: Bill Dexter on October 19, 2007 07:49 AMThe failures of our federal government are bordering on dangerous... When will DC wake up and smell the invasion? Posted by: takn on October 19, 2007 11:27 AMSadly it will take one of our guys (maybe more) getting shot for this to reach the main stream media. When it does it will hit with a thunder clap. WE NEED A FENCE. Two rows with anti-vehicle ditches on both sides. In places where a fence cannot go up, like on stretches along the rio grande, we need anti-car barriers. And it needs to be along the whole US-Mexican border. Two things will imediately happen. First, border patrol agents that are spending all their time now nabbing illegals wandering in the desert can be put on the look out for these large convoys. Second, once the smugglers are forced into smaller and smaller access areas they will be easier to ambush. Posted by: hugo on October 19, 2007 12:55 PMUnbelievable. And Bush hasn't even said a peep. He should have been impeached years ago for allowing this to occur. BTW, the DREAM ACT AMNESTY IS COMING BACK ! It looks like the bill number is S. 2205. Please call Senators ASAP and ask them to OPPOSE the Dream Act amnesty!! Posted by: populist on October 19, 2007 01:10 PMThese "incursions" are making the United States look weak. That is why Russian President Putin is making such outrageous statements and siding with Iran. America can't control its own borders and we are open for international attack. Posted by: Donna P. on October 19, 2007 01:14 PMAND WHAT DOES TRAITOR BOOSH AND THE REST OF THE USELESS MORONS IN WASHINGTON DO, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING... CHERTOFF THE J**KOFF DOWNPLAYS IT BY SAYING, MAYBE THEY WERE JUST LOST... THIS IS INEXCUSABLE GOVERNMENT MALFEASANCE AS USUAL... CORRECT ME IF I`M WRONG, BUT ISN`T THIS AN ACT OF WAR. Posted by: American Me on October 19, 2007 01:45 PMAnother show of this inept government, starting with our spineless President and his appointed cronies. We can only pray that all the true American citizens will show up for the 2008 elections, and send the trash home. Maybe then will get some real politicians in there that will stop this invasion! Posted by: Kyle on October 19, 2007 05:01 PMDang it! I wish that all the BP would be safe, first and foremost. BUT, I wish a firefight would happen on our side of the border so that we would have video (I am sure BP has cameras) and blood, drugs, and a few dead mex mil to prove it. Posted by: Greg on October 19, 2007 10:45 PMMary, They say they can't impeach Bush. It has been reported that there is an agreement between Bush, Pelosi and Reid that they will not allow impeachment proceeding. Posted by: marg on October 20, 2007 04:04 PMWe are going to have a 2nd civil war if our politicians don't wake up and see what is going on. We should all mass together and have a march on Washington speaking English and carrying the American flag. Posted by: aloha on October 20, 2007 04:44 PMWe are going to have a 2nd civil war if the politicians don't wake up. Everyone should mass up and march on Washington speaking English and carrying the American flag. Posted by: aloha on October 20, 2007 04:51 PMIndiana reform activists successfully tackle mortgages for illegals Chicago Public Radio has recognized the efforts of Indiana Federation for Immigration Reform and Enforcement in opposing the practice of a bank offering mortgages to illegal aliens. The protest was against Bank Calumet, and it cost the bank depositors. When the bank was then absorbed by First Midwest Bancorp, the new owner ended the practice. The head of IFIRE, Cheree Calabro, commented that, “They got pretty upset with us. They didn’t want us to step on their property, so what I did is I bought one of those extendo-rods, it’s for reaching objects on high shelves, and I would put the flyer in it so I could reach across their property and hand it to the people as they sat in the drive-thru.” [FAIR Comment: This is a good demonstration of the fact that local activists can make a real difference in the campaign to discourage the settlement of illegal aliens in their communities.] this is only a piece of the trouble every bill nowadays becomes about illegals even the defense bill, this is wat democracy is about , that is why i oppose the iraq war we are spreading something that we do not practivce our selves where are the new intolerable acts Posted by: impeachbush on October 18, 2007 10:09 PMEvery bill becomes a coyote for some kind of language that will give an Amnesty to some group of illegals. House legislators continue to battle for justice for imprisoned BP Agents Using the congressional hearings for the new U.S. Attorney General as a means to continue their efforts to seek justice for imprisoned Border Patrol agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean, five House members have called on Judge Michael Mukasey to agree to study the case if he is confirmed as head of the Justice Department. 'If this new attorney general is unwilling to look into this, he doesn't deserve to be attorney general,' Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.), told CNS News. Good to hear that these two men haven't been forgotten. Maybe someone can work a miracle and get these men home in time for christmas. Brian Posted by: Brian on October 18, 2007 12:39 PMTHESE HEROS ROT IN JAIL WHILE ILLEGAL ALIEN EMPLOYERS LAUGH THEIR HEADS OFF AT THEM The organised crime in the country is sick. Posted by: Softwarengineer on October 18, 2007 01:26 PMI just heard a soundbite on Rush's show where Nancy Pelosi was critisizing legislators for not passing the health care program that President Bush vetoed. In that soundbite she asked where the "fairness" is of not allowing the health care, etc. What kind of crap is this where a politician who does nothing to stop the draining of U.S. taxmoney on illegal immigrants who do nothing to put into our system but do everything they can to extract $$$$$$$$? What's with the fairness in that? Let's talk fairness when we can erradicate illegal immigration with full border enforcement, full legal enforcement, denying federal funds for sanctuary cities, denying citizenship for anchor babies and the return of illegal immigrants to their home country. P.S. I am not a racist - I am an American who put 20 years of my life into the U.S. Military to save our freedom and really hate to see it go down the drain! Posted by: Sick 'n Tired on October 18, 2007 02:52 PMIT HAS MADE ME SICK THAT PRE3S. BUSH AND THE ATTORNEY GENERALS OFFICE HAS NOT COMMUTED THESE GREAT MENS SENTANCES. I HOPE THAT THEY WILL SOON BE HOME WITH THEIR FAMILIES AND LOVED ONES. Posted by: aloha on October 18, 2007 07:48 PMnothing will change until BUSH is gone BY ANY MEANS I MEAN ANY, impeachment, heatrt attack or a OSWALD-ESQUE PATRIOT, UNTIL THEN PEOPLE LIKE SICK N TIRED BITE YOUR LIP, SEND YOUR KIDS TO IRAQ AND HAVE NIGERIANS, ARABS, AND LATINOS GO TO SCHOOL, GET GOOD JOBS AND RAPE YOUR DAUGHTERS Posted by: impeachbush on October 18, 2007 10:11 PMAll the politicians trying to get Ramos and Compean freed, are the ones to be re-elected. I doubt any Democ-rats are among them. As I said, for the average white working and middle class American, the Democratic Party is less than useless, even detrimental. No, it isn't me that put a racial spin on it, it's the Democrats, and their not spinning. With them, their neglect of white americans is real. Posted by: Bobby on October 19, 2007 05:25 PMImpeachBush! watch what you advocate or post,threats of bodly harm will get you in trouble believe it!
