U.S. MUST GET CONTROL OF BORDER

A very real danger now exists along the border with Mexico, and I see
little about that threat being published in the U.S. media.

I'm more than a little worried about that. The U.S. military says
Mexico is on the verge of collapse. Along comes Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton and denies that, stating there's nothing to fear and
talking about getting control of America's problems with illegal
drugs, and stopping the flow of illegal guns into Mexico.

How many years has the government been fighting illegal drugs in
America? And guns? I read Clinton's remarks on guns as controlling
gun ownership in America, not Mexico. Since when are Mexican drug
cartels limited to getting guns from the United States?

I read all of this as a cover-up of what is really going on regarding
security along the U.S.-Mexico border. Our porous borders must be
closed, and soon. Otherwise our sovereign nation will become a nation
of no laws, no order, no rules.

Let's get real about what is happening on the border. Let's forget
about making illegal aliens legal just because they're here. If it
takes the military to close our porous borders, then let's do it.
