Finally! Something I Can Support Obama On

What better use for our National Guard then to Guard our NATION?

This could stop not only the violence, but the illegal immigrations from Mexico, the drugs themselves and stop arms from leaking out.

This is a WONDERFUL idea!

Obama Considering Deploying Troops to U.S.-Mexico Border

President Obama tells regional reporters it is "unacceptable if you've got drug gangs crossing our borders and killing U.S.
citizens." 

President Obama says he's considering whether to deploy National Guard troops to the U.S.-Mexico border, after Texas Gov.
Rick Perry made an urgent call fort 1,000 more "boots on the ground" to deal with the growing violence. 

The top Republican on the House of Representatives'
appropriations committee criticized the Defense Department on Tuesday for not making the situation in Mexico as big a priority
as Afghanistan. 

Rep. Jerry Lewis, a Republican, said the situation in Mexico is far more important than Afghanistan
at this point. "We need to raise this to a higher level," Lewis told The Associated Press. 

Perry said late last
month that he was asking the Department of Homeland Security for extra resources and troops. 

Obama suggested to regional reporters Wednesday
that he's taking a cautious approach.
