Next thing we know anyone who defends themselves against drug runners will be jailed.  Yes I find this dark humor same as I did the 1980's Dead baby jokes or 101 uses for a dead cat.

Nothing humorous at all. It's just proof that official Mexican Government Policy is Get! Go! Don't come back, just send money.

Washington, DC -- The Obama administration formally asked Congress on Tuesday for $600 million in emergency funds to hire another 1,000 Border Patrol agents, acquire two drones and enhance security along the Southwest border.

The money would also pay for an additional 160 Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents and extra Border Patrol canine teams, according to a senior White House official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly.

In a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D- San Francisco), President Obama said his request "responds to urgent and essential needs" and asked that it be considered an emergency.

Who's "urgent and essential needs" is he worried about?

Arizona Democrats urge Obama not to sue over controversial immigration law
By Sean J. Miller
The Hill (Washington, DC), June 22, 2010

Arizona Democrats facing tough reelection races are distancing themselves from the Obama administration as it prepares to file a lawsuit against the state over its controversial immigration law.

Rep. Harry Mitchell (D-Ariz.) on Monday sent a sharply worded letter to President Barack Obama urging him not to sue.

“I believe your administration’s time, efforts and resources would be much better spent securing the border and fixing our broken immigration system,” the two-term congressman wrote in the letter. “Arizonians are tired of the grandstanding, and tired of waiting for help from Washington. … [A] lawsuit won’t solve the problem. It won’t secure the border, and it won’t fix our broken immigration system.”

His

Kyl spilled the beans and Obitchy got caught stepping on his treasonous lil dick. Now he's got to look like he's doing something about the Border problem so no one can go after him for that treason. It'd be a great time for someone to blackmail...errr...persuade his ass to finish the wall. I notice the last few days that McCain is stuck to Kyl like glue so he can no, no, pooh-pooh it if it comes up for Odipwad.

"Some" of that $600M is going to Mexico. Probably the $500M he promised Calderon last month.
