Looks like Bush HAS decided to send the National Guard to patrol the Mexican border
How long until a US National Guardsman shoots a poor Mexican man, woman or child trying to cross the border seeking a better life? Then what happens? Answer: Riots in most American cities. DC had its own riots, like a lot of cities, a few decades back and some neighborhoods are still paying the price. This plan is insane. But again, Bush is opting for a knee-jerk publicity stunt without thinking through what's going to happen next. The National Guard's job is to shoot people, and when they do, and they surely will, all hell is going to break loose.
The man is insane. Actually, he's desperate and incompetent. Oh, and by the way, putting aside the fact that our military is already far too overstretched, how much money is this little adventure going to cost the taxpayers? Or can't you put a price on Latino-bashing for votes?

I like the unmanned drones part the best. Maybe we can have sentinels like in x-men lining the border. That would be really effective.
