DK-your party is too interested in blowing up countries and then rebuilding them...my party wants to build up this country....new schools, highways, more police and fire fighters....

Heck, with all the tax cuts and now my pink slip...looks like Baja might have to wait for my tourism dollars...

mtgoat666...
p.s. liberal-approved ideas are better than conservative-approved ideas, for example the difference in position between GOP and DEMS re a womans right to choose!

Oh yea, and what choices they were...50 million of them.
Only problem was they flushed them down the toilet.

Those Dems. what a hoot.

As I read through the many posts, I couldn't help but totally agree with two points made by our friends here.

First, if and when an image of totally reliable, totally professional police exists, and second, clearing that border hassle so people can travel more freely.

On the first point, I have certain reservations only because even in these here United States, there are way too many folks who are itching to carry weapons, and do so partly because they mistrust our police. That said, while I have no problem with gun ownership, per se, I do believe that it ought to be to protect one's own property, and to hunt. Having people, especially with concealed handguns walking around in crowded cities is just asking for trouble.

Second. As for the border issue, y'all can blame that fiasco on Homeland Security. Guessing that the original intent was at least portrayed as security against terrorist infiltration. Yeah. And, I suppose, it somehow is going to prevent drug trafficking. Of course.

Not too many years ago, before the passport requirement, there were hundreds, if not thousands of day trippers. Many of them were spontaneous. Many San Diego conventioneers, for instance.

Ask the folks as Puerto Nuevo about that!

And, I might not be able to sleep tonight thinking that DK may be carrying.:no:

California has received $22,000,000,000.00+ in stimulus money from the Dem. administration. Where was it spent? The "blame Bush"card has already been played. ;D

homeland security has had 11 years to fix the border mess by increasing staffing to handle flow of people, and they have not reduced border line waits. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THEY ARE NEVER GOING TO FIX THE BORDER WAIT, and THEY HAVE NO INTENTION TO DO SO!!!!! HOMELAND SECURITY DOES NOT CARE ABOUT CROSS-BORDER TRADE, THEY ACTIVELY WORK TO THWART TRADE!!!

Great idea. Let's add another plus to the cultural fabric of Mother Mexico...........welcome with open arms all the Aztec blooded gang-bangers that infest the neighborhoods of once-wonderful America. Bring them home to Mama......regardless of what side they were spawned.

.

I disagree about a "once wonderful America". I'd much rather take the current USA over the USA that didn't allow women to vote, saw blacks as less then human, saw homosexuality as an abomination, and now discriminates against people who look Mexican.

Great idea!!! Who benefits from the continued illegalization of pot etc.? The drug cartels, the police, the pharmaceutical industry, the lawyers, the alcoholic beverage industry and the bail bondsmen would see a significant reduction in their profits. And they all contribute to politicians(law makers).

D, What the heck have you fired up here? Soulpatch,
Amsterdam no longer allows Tourists into their 'Cafes',
I'm one of those, I prefer the term Progressive types,
but D, I have to agree with you on this one

In Dennis' world only Mexicans from both sides of the border do drugs and ruin neighborhoods.

Of course America with a majority of whites is the drug capital end user of the world. The Mexicans drug cartels and other drug producers are falling all over themselves trying to serve the American drug culture, and America's insatiable appetite for drugs.

That's pretty much my point, Joe, but you missed it.
"My world" is no longer my world. There are vast tracts of the USA that have been taken over by Hispanic gangs [and others] and it would be suicide for me to even enter these areas.
How do you think this sets with some volunteer combatants in our military, Joe? They're fighting, and dieing for people who would kill them equally dead in their own country just for walking down the street in their hood. They're giving it up for people who would prefer them dead.
Doesn't sound so right to me. How about you, Joe? Does that sound right to you?
