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.
