Texas Governor, Rick Perry: Consider Military in Mexico


From My San Antonio:
Appearing on MSNBC on Thursday, Perry was asked, “Would you advocate military involvement in Mexico on the Mexico side of the border to help Mexico in this drug war?”

Perry answered: “I think we have to use every aspect of law enforcement that we have, including the military. I think you have the same situation as you had in Colombia. Obviously, Mexico has to approve any type of assistance that we can give them.

“But the fact of the matter is, these are people who are highly motivated with money. They are vicious. They are armed to the teeth. I want to see them defeated. And any means that we can to run these people off our border and to save Americans' lives we need to be engaged in.”

Is there actually Mexico?

From Maine it looks like waziristan - an uncontrolled frontier area on our border.

it needs to be treated as a war.

the cartels are employing military tactics against our law enforcement.

including wearing camo uniforms and carrying ak-47's in military squad formations to protect drug runners.

we need to fire hellfire missles up thier ass's on the mexican side of the border.

we need to engage them with 50 cal machine guns from helicopters when they are running back to mexico to avoid capture.
