We have our military spread out pretty thin... Iraq, Afghanistan, Germany, England, France, Japan, Spain...
Just to the south of our border is a nation full of more corruption than we have, (if you can believe that), beleaguered by drug wars and plagued by poverty. Their government is so fragile that there is every possibility, even probability, that Mexico will plunge into anarchy sometime this year. When that happens, hundreds of thousands... or even tens of millions...of Mexicans are going to be heading north, with drug lords probably hot on their trails.
Are we ready for this? With all of our troops overseas and our bank accounts about to run dry after Congress tosses another $825 billion + pork down the toilet, how are we going to deal with this massive influx of humanity that will need medical attention, shelter, clothing and food? And, how are we going to fight the crime and street fighting that will inevitably come with it?
That'll be a great opportunity for terrorists to strike again, won't it?
We are embarking upon dangerous times, indeed.
