Obama Comes Through For Arizona!
By Wyatt Earp | September 2, 2010
Oh, did I write “comes through?” I meant to write “Obama Gives The Big F**k You To Arizona.” My bad.
Lost in the media stories about the National Guard’s arrival in Arizona were a few minor details. Details like the strength of the Guard forces. Arizona asked for 3,000 troops. What they got was a lot less.
Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu said requests by Arizona law enforcement personnel and Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) for 3,000 National Guard troops along the state’s border with Mexico have been answered so far with 1 percent of that number deployed there this week.
“We have a whopping 30 [National Guard troops] this week that are showing up,” Babeu told CNSNews.com. “It’s less than a half-hearted measure designed to fail.”
But the federal Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has placed 15 signs along a 60-mile stretch of Interstate 8 that links San Diego with Phoenix and Tucson warning travelers of drug cartels and human trafficking operations.
Awesome! Forget the border fence, we have warning signs now!
“DANGER – PUBLIC WARNING, TRAVEL NOT RECOMMENDED,” read the signs placed along Interstate 8. “Visitors May Encounter Armed Criminals and Smuggling Vehicles Traveling at High Rates of Speed. Stay Away From Trash, Clothing, Backpacks, and Abandoned Vehicles. BLM Encourages Visitors To Use Public Land North of Interstate 8,” the signs say.
“I think the American people are outraged that we can fight wars half-way around the world, send our nation’s treasury and our most precious resources – our American heroes that serve in the military — and yet here in our own country somehow they believe it’s okay for us not to have a secure border,” Said Sheriff Babeu. “And that it’s okay to put up signs in my county and parts of America to surrender parts of our country to foreign born criminals,” Babeu added, “warning our own American citizens to stay out.”
Is he wrong? The president has basically conceded the border and parts of AN AMERICAN STATE to the drug cartels! No attempt at enforcement, no attempt at defense, no attempt to honor the oath this man took on January 20, 2010. Why? Because he couldn’t care less about the health and welfare of Arizona and its citizens.
You gotta figure that by 2012, the Mexicans will control all of Arizona . . . and most of the American southwest.

If the Mighty Won had been prez in 1941, he’s have posted signs around Hawaii advising the residents to learn Japanese.

If the obambi had been prez in 1814 there would have been signs outside Washington telling citizens not to interfer with the British as they burned it to the ground.

May as well have put up 3,000 scarecrows in National Guard uniforms.
30 men, when you asked for 3000 sad, very sad.
Or better yet drop DVDs of “Baywatch” episodes in Mexico.. That way the Cartels will be so busy jerking off to Pam Anderson Lee Anderson Rock or whatever her name is, they won’t have time or the energy to come to the US and cause all of the murder and mayhem.

We could sure use Pershing right now.

Just think, the border was FINE until Jan. 20, 2009. I can’t believe the border magically opened all by itself on that fine winter day.
p.s. – just get the f-ing troops down there and start shooting.

The sign should say ‘rule of law ends here’
Shades of Cherry 2000.
Barkeep, I’ll have a shot of rotgut and a cruller.

Robert B. – Imagine the fine sushi they’d get, though.
Jon – Move along, nothing to see here . . . except the flames.
Ferrell – Put Christina Hendricks bikini pics on the signs. That’ll stop them dead in their tracks!
BobG – The missile or the general? Heh.
Randal – Bush was a disgrace when it came to immigration. I posted about his idiocy on this many times. Obama is worse because he not only doesn’t enforce the law, he spends his time suing those who do.
Lergnom – It’s Thunderdome!

To put it plainly, we have a state where our citizens are in danger and (justifiably) in fear for their lives, and the federal government refuses to help. What a sad time it is.

Wyatt:
I guess if it DOES get worse there, they COULD always send a few NUNS (with rulers) from North Catholic H.S.

Ferrell….Maybe a couple of Jeepers Creepers instead pretending to be scarecrows along the border, this would provide all the rejuvenation body parts they needed and take a bite out of illegal immigration..literally.
Still waiting for Jeepers Creepers 3 to come out though, best new horror charachter to come out in a while …hmmmm….maybe DARPA could whip something up.

Signs signs everywhere there’s signs…../
Don’t forget the cartels explicitly issuing threats to US police.
I’m not sure the comparisons between Mexico and Colombia 20 years ago are valid….even with Escobar busting out of his luxurious custom-built prison, I don’t think things ever got as bad as they did then compared to Mexico now.
Miss Universe has her work cut out for her.

…So are there any lawsuits against the Federal Government and its elected officials for not upholding the laws of the nation that they swore an oath to do?

It’s much too hard to build a wall. Insted we should build sound barriers…

How about an electric fence, like the one that keeps my dogs from wandering off the homestead?

I say lots of claymore mines along the border. Drop some cluster bombs also.

If Bambi had been Pres in 1860, he would have instructed the troops to let the Rebs have Fort Sumter.
And then he would have promptly said that all Southerners were rednecks who had “acted stupidly.” Gotta get his fail in there, somehow.

We can’t enforce border security along the southern border, but up towards your neck of the woods we have this:
As the article points out, in Arizona the police have to actually stop you for violating the law before they are allowed to ask about your immigration status.

DL – This administration simply doesn’t care. It’s sad.
Bob G – Even the drug cartels would be afraid of them.
Jon – With DARPA, that was probably a true story.
Fenway – But Mexico’s president can come here and lecture us about our issues, right? Unreal.
Sully – I highly doubt it, which is surprising. Mark Levin should sue them.
Captain – See Bob’s suggestion.
Bob – Brilliant!
Rick – Flaming pools of lava.
Dixie – One of his greatest hits.
Deadcenter – Are you frakkin’ kidding me? Did Stevie Wonder write that thing?
