Actually, it has been determined that the cross border incursion was simply a group of Federales who became disoriented on their way home from Hussongs Canteena.....but seriously, this will be something to watch. The new Mexican President, I can't recall his name, let's just call him Pablo, President Pablo has initiated a major crackdown to "take back" Mexico from the drug smugglers it was announced the other day. They are even sending the Mexican Military into police stations in surprise raids, as they did in Tiajuana just yesterday or the day before. So we may see increasingly desperate attempts to get accross the border if the smugglers feel as though they may be captured by the Mexicans......OR......They heard about Pelosi's plan to increase the minimum wage.

I think when your police force is SO corrupt you have to send the military in to police stations, maybe that's not a good thing.

Hiya Jenn,
By the way, in my blog, when I referred to "right wing loonies" I was only referring to loonies who happened to be right wing, not the right wing itself.
I think you'd be the first to agree that the left wing has plenty of loonies of it's own.

There's plenty of loonies - and it would appear that there's one determing when the military can and cannot fight back...
Write in "Cary Cartter" for president, 2008 - my slogan will be "I will take care of the interests of THIS country's citizens FIRST."
For those of you who need that translated, get the h3ll out of my country.

Friday Fun.... here's mine.
On Non-Fiscal Issues, you rank as a Moderate Conservative (6 .
On Fiscal Issues, you rank as a Strong Conservative (89).
Your score is on a scale of 0 to 100, with 0 being fully liberal and 100 being fully conservative.

Darwin - I recommend that your head explodes. That would be good for the Nation.
You might want to rethink things, Darwin, so that you head may hold together once you're able to put it back together.
Just riffing off your metaphor...although you may need to look up the word metaphor.

"Darwin - I recommend that your head explodes. That would be good for the Nation."
I see. You're implying that my stance or opposition to particular issues is detrimental to the United States? And that my death due to my exploding head would be beneficial? Hmmmm ... so rather than free speech and the ability to exercise ones opinion in a public forum you'd rather I toe the liberal line or die.
Nice.

I am wondering why W hasn't called the Mexican Ambassador in on the carpet. I say put troops on the border in full combat gear. If they try it again, kill them, period.

Probably because Mexico is calling the shots. Bush is waiting for the Mexican ambassador to call him on the carpet.
Besides, it's in the democrats hands now. Habla Espanol?

On fiscal issues, I rank as a Strong Conservative (93).
On non-fiscal issues, I rank as a Centrist (42).
The second number puzzles me a bit. I figured I'd be a bit lower.

The Mexican American War was very much about Mexicans taking advantage of Americans. This situation isn't much difference. In fact, it's worse, because they're in our land this time.

This has been big news in my neck o da woods, the local radio stations are talking about it and everyone was outraged that the troops fell back. As far as myself and quite a few other Arizonans are concerned, this was an invasion that is tantamount to an act of war, and the scumbags coming in should have been shot dead as enemies.
This crap has GOT TO STOP.

To me, this is fundamentally wrong because social liberalism as I view it (of course, with a couple of notable issues - i.e. abortion, affirmative action maybe others) is more consistent with economic conservatism in that both positions advocate that government interference be minimal.
Social conservatism and economic liberalism both look to the state to achieve desired majoritarian moral and economic ends.
If you wish to "curtail" social liberalism, that line would be best drawn based on the proper understanding of what government can legislate and what it can not. Otherwise, we get majoritarian meddling in the private lives of individuals, a third rail amongst libertarians.
That said, conservatives and I will never agree on what the proper line, as our political philosophies greatly differ.

Roland, as long as you are here through legal channels, I will defend you to the death - I took an oath.
Once your actions become counter to the security of this country, then your status falls under the "all enemies, foreign or domestic."
I accept your offer of help on the phone banks. It may be a little slow at first, they won't let me use "1-800-stay-the-h3ll-out". Plus, there is some opposition to the auto-answer recording of "For English, stay on the line. For Spanish, go back where you came from."
(side note to mudkitty - that was not a RACIST remark, since I did not specifically mention a RACE. in order for a remark to be considered RACIST, it must specify a RACE.)

Cary, no, it wasn't a racist remark, just a bigoted remark...
Republicans need to play some catch up on the difference between the terms racist, and bigot.

You're right. Only praticing bigots and racists like the democrats really know the difference. I think we'll stay ignorant of that distinction.

I had heard that it was one of our National (unARMED) Guard posts that was over-run. They were fired upon and since they are NOT armed, they had no choice but to retreat.
If a single National Guardsman is injured due to this idiotic policy, I will hold GW Bush personally responsible!

Ah.. but according to the government stooge being interviewed today on Fox, they ARE armed.
