#2 How do these people get through Mexico? I thought Mexico was known for strong borders.

#3 Never did hear the explanation as to why it was OK for the politicos to tour these places, yet 'unsafe' for the media to do so........

#4 Politicians generally have well-armed bodyguards (despite any positions on yankee gun control)

#5 Sending remittances to Third World countries...now that's doing the work that Americans won't.

#6 #2 Mexico expels illegals. They just don't care if its to the south or the north. As long as you keep moving, pay the Mexican coyotes, and look the other way same many of your fellow travelers are yanked for slavery, Mexican government personnel are only concerned about getting their cut of the take. Why to you think the drug trade 'exploded' in Mexico? The export business was already there, they just added hyper money to the process.

#7 Well, you certainly can't move 50,000 kids across Mexico without a lot of government corruption. Unless, of course, our president made a deal with Mexico that Congress doesn't know about. At least, the House doesn't.

#8 The House Minority Leader is suffering from a serious mental disorder. A country cannot continue to exist if it is swamped with hordes of illegal immigrants(otherwise known as near-future Democratic voters).

#9 These are Loyalists coming in. THIS country cannot exist. The one Hussein is building will replace it.
