They're grabbing guns and allowing a foreign military to operate under

their flag on American soil.

Could you imagine the wailing and gnashing of teeth had this happened under a Democratic president?

1. Who? What? Why?

[trof]

2. Thuh Mescan Army has invaded NOLA.

[Walt Starr]

3. The government is grabbing guns from people who are still in New Orleans

And the Mexican Army is currently conducting military operations on our soil under their flag in the relief effort.

10. I suspect a bit of sarcasm.

A San Antonio reporter covered their trip through Texas.

"We're welcoming the Mexican army. Our family has lived here since about 1800. We were here the last time they came though in 1836, so we're welcoming them back, but it will be much more friendly this time," said Art Martinez, 30, perched atop a Van Ormy fire truck, a Mexican flag in one hand, Old Glory in the other.

4. it did happen under Clinton

those reich-wing bastards were going nuts on hate-radio under the assumption there was a foreign army at work in the US - under their own flag

[ripple]

6. They're unarmed

At least that's what I read yesterday. Strictly humanitarian relief.

7. The Mexicans are unarmed

but guns are being confiscated in New Orleans.

It's the two items together that the poster was referring to.

13. 10% of the population of Mexico has migrated*.. to the USA, ..

* but Migrant is an appropriate word.. because they are not flying home in the fall..!!
they are not crossing back over the Rio Grande in V formations before the first snow..

eventually the borders will just have to be elemninated.

this was called the "Grand Experiment" in the 70's.

adds a new Twist to ..."ONE" nation under god, and the god is Corporate Profits.

14. I hear ya. Think back folks, it wasn't that long ago.

Remember all the crying and wailing about "taking away our guns" and UN troops coming in to take over America? Well now the worm turns. America is going through a friendly invasion as our neighbors are coming to help us because Bush has weakened us with his unnecessary war. Thanks for pointing out the irony of the situation.

15. Where's the NRA and Repugs when ya need'em to defend their gun rights?
