My comment: Iran was reported Tuesday to be building intermediate missile bases in Venezuela. This could force Obama to choose between protecting the United States and winning the Latino vote. If Americans had any equity left in their houses they'd borrow it to build a bomb shelter.

Great! Iran is moving towards developing nukes and now is building a base within striking distance of the continental US.

Fine, let em spend billions building it. Let's elect Col. Alan West in 2012 and he'll blow the sucker up.

That would take years, IF they had a bomb to launch.

No worries, 12/20/12 will be here long before then.

Not to mention the US would invade Venezuela long before any such missiles would be operational and Chavez knows that. Sure it's possible they could get a couple hidden missiles in the air, and they MIGHT hit their targets, IF they aren't shot down, but then Venezuala/Iran would cease to exist after that.

He's not blind, WERE blind. The Government knows things we couldn't even imagine, and they have to plan accordingly. Even if it means planning for the end.

Gents, I would hardly consider any of this as credible. Lots of assumptions and innuendo in this blog article. Sounds like yet another conspiracy theorist to me.

Regardless, should such a threat ever be established that presented a credible threat to the US, I would imagine it would become a smoking hole in the ground quickly due to some sort of "accident" at the site itself. Funny how that happens from time to time.

I don't think we need to run for cover yet.....
May 19, 2011 5:28:18 PM

If the articles/blogs all site the same source, then I would question their credibility. For some reason I can't access the links from my current location. Will have to look at this later this evening.
May 19, 2011 5:32:03 PM

That's true, and fair. The German paper is called Die Welt. I don't know how credible that publication is. Perhaps someone here at Tom's who lives in Germany can weigh in?
May 19, 2011 5:36:52 PM

Die Welt means The World. Not exactly the bastions of fair and impartial reporting as I recall, but not terrible either. Funny how this hasn't been picked up by any US sources, even Fox (who would love this sort of thing) to my knowledge.

What I would really like to see as part of the discussion is corroborating articles from completely independent sources.
May 19, 2011 5:44:54 PM

I looked, and all sources point back to the original German article.

However, I don't find the premise unbelievable. The agreement in 2010 between Chavez and Ackmanutjob to jointly develop short-medium range missiles is well documented.

Agreeing to work together is different than actually doing it. An agreement like this is often far more symbolic than practical.

Still, if this threat (perceived or otherwise) has any merit, then I would assume more robust measures are underway to ascertain the appropriate response to protect our national interests.

HOOAH!!!

There is absolutely no doubt in my mind what his choice would be.

Obama promised the Latino's immigration reform in '08. Suka's. Obama is beneath the American people.
May 21, 2011 11:50:57 AM

In my mind, there isnt truly a Latino vote per se
Latinos are much more individualistic and not sheeple, much like whites, tho obviously tend towards other desires as well
Obama got much of the white vote, but he can also lose much of the Latino vote as well, its not as tho hes guaranteed 92% http://democratsforsale.blogspot.com/2010/04/why-do-bla...
If he damages enough of our countries structure, then more and more people will clamor for government handouts, as Ive seen in Californica, like no other state Ive lived in, tho I have seen similar things on the east coast.
I think hes been programmed as to what others responses will be to his agenda, and has pat answers at the ready, while truly not knowing nor caring about differences
May 21, 2011 3:03:27 PM

Stereotype city here guys ... sheesh ... sheeple even !!
May 21, 2011 3:15:16 PM

The fact is Obama in seducing their vote promised Latino voters He would reform immigration laws . The fact is He lied. Just another example of his poor judgement and lack of rectitude puke. This has nothing to do with stereotyping. I checked with the 26 thousand Latino TV stations in Los Angeles. They laughed at the idea.
May 21, 2011 3:24:57 PM

Well since you employ a heap of them I guess you must know ...
May 21, 2011 3:35:50 PM

The fact is Obama secured the latino vote by making false promises regarding immigration reform. If you think I am prejudice think again. Obama speech in Texas a couple of weeks ago was disgraceful and demonstrates his poor judgement and lack of rectitude. I will add this whole Idea of throwing Israel under the bus and siding with the Islamic extremist who would ultimately run a palestinian state? This idea is going to backfire on Obama. His poor judgement and lack of rectitude is going to be his downfall. November 2012 buddy. By the way. I hate everybody, not just Latinos. Call me dirty.

We might need to do a product recall on this model ... I'll see if the other paranoid psychotics who are still alive are ok.

20,000 More Border Patrol Agents



Fast-forward to today, and many of the benchmarks these members of Congress set in 2007 have been met. For example, the Border Patrol has increased its forces to more than 20,000 officers, and DHS has built more than 600 miles of border fencing. Both of these milestones demonstrate that we have gotten Congress’ message.

Hmmm, 20,000? More? up to? Looks like an Obama-nation

May 21, 2011 4:10:47 PM

Who built the fence?

But no matter what the controversial barrier being constructed between Mexico and the U.S. is called, the $1.6 billion, 670-mile-long first phase is close to completion as President Barack Obama enters office.

He takes credit in one sense, by appearing to build it, but also looks to those who forbids it, or

Obama won nearly two-thirds of the Hispanic vote in 2008 by courting them with promises of "comprehensive immigration reform." Once he became president, many Latinos figured he'd move on the issue right away, given that the Democrats controlled the White House and both Houses of Congress with huge majorities. That never happened. Immigration was moved to the backburner, behind economic "stimuli" and ObamaCare. As a result of that and the poor economy which has resulted in astronomical unemployment rates among Hispanics, Obama's job approval among that group has slipped to the low to mid 50's. He has some repair work to do, which is why he went to Texas to give a totally political speech that lacked any kind of legislative seriousness. As he stood in the shadow of a giant Mexican flag, Obama mocked Republicans and others who want to see the border secured before we have any further discussion on immigration: "Maybe they'll want a moat....with alligators," he sneered. Actually, that's not a bad idea. The point is that Obama knows any new stab at immigration reform isn't going anywhere before 2012. But he also knows that he cannot win re-election without the big support of Latinos, so he went to Texas this week to pander to them in the most transparent way. We'll see if they fall for his line of BS again.

Well you had the GFC smash into his plans ... I can well imagine what a Republican President would have done instead.

... sorry ... no ... I can't imagine what a republican president would have done because imagination isn't something they can spell let alone understand.

May 21, 2011 5:48:16 PM

Obama's plans? Bwhahahahahahahah. Obama is an incompetent boob, an inept, unread, uncurious doofus. He is beneath the American people.
May 21, 2011 5:52:46 PM

Any Republican canditate is thousands of times more compotent than Obama at moving the nation in a positive direction and fixing existing problems.

I truly believe Obama doesnt believe this is possible, at least until theres a multi-million dollar study to prove it actually happened, all by itself, and only a poor shmuck with a lil chutzpah did it, with no government helps at all

ATF allows guns into Mexico to pad stats

For well over a year, the mainstream media has embraced the statistic that between 80-90% of guns in Mexico were sold in America and smuggled across the border, and that number necessitates the need for more restrictions on gun sales. But ATF officials were knowingly allowing firearms sold in the United States to be taken across the border into Mexico to pad these statistics under “Project Gunwalker.”

http://www.nationalgunrights.org/atf-smuggles-guns-to-m...

Now, when the media speaks, as the seeds are planted to them, surely reality must follow, cept they got busted-this time
May 22, 2011 4:08:28 PM

"We are working closely with our Korean allies and the U.S. Army in exploring alternative options to dispose of these firearms."

From your link, or, in other words, we must pay top dollar to dispose of them
Also from your link:
Asked why the M1s pose a threat, the State Department spokesman referred questions to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. ATF representatives said they would look into the question Monday afternoon, but on Wednesday they referred questions to the Justice Department. DOJ spokesman Dean Boyd referred questions back to the State Department.

Now theres our representitives in action
May 22, 2011 4:15:24 PM

They can "dispose" of them by putting them into circulation. You have to remember, in their eyes there is no such thing as a law abiding gun owner.
