Talking Points Memo: GOP House Candidate Open To War With Mexico 'If We Need To'
A Republican congressional candidate in North Carolina suggested that he'd be open to going to war with Mexico over problems with immigration and drug cartels.

The candidate, Mark Walker (pictured), the Republican nominee in the race to succeed Rep. Howard Coble (R-NC) in North Carolina's 6th Congressional District, made the comments on June 26.

"I will tell you if you have foreigners who are sneaking in with drug cartels to me that is a national threat," Mark Walker said during a speech to Tea Partiers in Rockingham County. The footage was reported by Rawstory.com via a post at the Daily Kos. "And if we got to go laser or blitz somebody with a couple of fighter jets for a little while to make our point, I don't have a problem with that either. So yeah, whatever we need to do."

A moderator for the event then asked Walker if he would have "any qualms about starting up a little war with Mexico."

"We did it before," Walker said. "If we need to do it again, I don't have a qualm about it."

....setting aside the issue of the drug cartels for a second, what is it with Republicans and endless wars? :|:|:ohmy:
 
We do not need to go to war. Shut down allowing travel of vehicles into and out of Mexico. Close down a majority of the bases around the world we have and put all those troops on the Mexican border. Get the word out we will treat the border like we do our bases when people trespass and that is shoot to kill. And get the word out when Mexico gets it side under control we will reopen travel. Having closed down travel of vehicles will kill Mexico's economy pretty damn fast. And by god make it a national effort to find every illegal to deport them and make the lives of the ones we cant find a living helll until they leave and come back legally.

War no, but whatever we have to do to get it under control is a must. Our border is a easy solution to solve but our loser leaders in office would have you think otherwise.

Good luck with all that...no, really, good luck. And while that's going on, some of us will be helping said immigrants stay in this country.

You mean you will be helping illegals continue to break the law and use the peoples money for people who do not belong here. All the while you slap and spit in the face of legal immigrants who followed the law like my wife from Ecuador who came here legally by getting in line and waiting for her time to apply. Spent thousands on lawyers and paper work. Submitted to the doctors examination's required by law. Found employment and never took a single penny from the government. Paid for english classes. And after the years required got her U.S. citizenship.

If it means eventually getting the broken current immigration system fixed once and for all...let me think about it: yes.

You mean make the broken immigration system more broken with more amnesty and freebies.

As long as it gets fixed eventually.

There have been scattered reports of Mexican military and police units escorting groups crossing the border.

That would suggest the war has already started and the Washington Politicians are just now noticing.

*looks over towards Doc* Sure...and the events in the movie Red Dawn actually did take place, huh?

Escorting drug runners and such. While at the same time the military has shot at our own law enforcement on many occasions. We should be returning the favor.
