HE HYPE IS SPILLING OVER FROM SOUTH OF THE BORDER
Since Sunday March 15th we have been hit with one of those Talk Show Tsunamis that always leave us trying to sniff out the Washington hype from the real goods. What are they saying?
- Mexico is losing control of its cities to drug gangs and could collapse.
- Mexico is close to becoming a failed state.
- 2000 weapons each day are shipped into Mexico from the wide-open gun dealers in the US.
- Drug syndicate criminals are infiltrating the US.
- This situation is our top priority: Homeland Security Czar Napolitano.
- Its a serious problem: Secretary of Defense Gates.
- US Embassy in Mexico City tries to dampen it down: "The US had no intention of sending troops into Mexico".
- DEA's top intelligence official Antony Placido believes: "Calderon is making important strides against the cartels. The violence we see is actually a signpost of success."
- Obama says he's considering putting troops on the border.
- Chief of the Joint Chiefs Admiral Mullen says he is willing to supply unmanned drones and helicopters to chase down the Mexican drug mafia.
- Bay Buchanon (Pat's lethal sister) says Calderon and his government are down for the count. Without a US rescue operation Mexico will soon become a narco-state.
- Sen Joe Lieberman says he's: "looking into potential implications of increased terrorist activity". (Does he mean the increased activity is potential or that the implications he foresees are still potential? In other words that they don't even exist at this point in time.)
