Border group claims 'WMD' test

Members of a border-watch group conducted an experiment this week: They snuck into the United States carrying a fake "weapon of mass destruction" and made it to a house in Sierra Vista without being caught, the group said.
The test was to show how vulnerable the border is to terrorists, said Glenn Spencer, a spokesman for the group, the American Border Patrol.
The two members carrying a suitcase in a backpack crossed into Arizona west of Naco on Monday night. At one point, the two men crossed a border fence that separates the United States from Mexico, one member said.
U.S. Border Patrol officials had no immediate comment on the claim by the Sierra Vista-based group.
The Mexican government is reviewing a videotape of the event taken by Spencer's group to see if the mem entered Mexico, said Miguel Escobar, Mexico's consul in Douglas. "If the incident can be confirmed, a formal letter of protest will be submitted to the U.S. government," he said.
Mike King, a former Army sniper who was assigned to Fort Huachuca as a National Guardsman after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, said he's hoping the demonstration will help convince government leaders that the country's southern border is a national security risk.
"I mean, you have people with backpacks, bottles of water and zero training coming across. I just wanted to show how easy this is for somebody with training to come into this country," said King, who now works as a technical director for the border-watch group.
He said the Department of Homeland Security's focus on established ports of entry and the U.S. Border Patrol's deployment strategy and lack of resources make the border attractive for groups to enter.
King says he and his partner Mike Christie, another American Border Patrol member, were able to get to the border from this side without being detected. There, they crossed a border fence, but remained within three feet of the fence, which is still part of the United States.
They then re-crossed the fence where they were able to avoid Border Patrol units on the ground and an agency helicopter and a pilotless plane flying overhead to rendezvous with a waiting truck. King said radio traffic indicated the two had at some point been spotted by Border Patrol agents but they were never apprehended. They hid in the bed of the truck, which took them to Sierra Vista.
King said he plans to repeat the experiment, perhaps starting deeper in Mexico.
"I guarantee they won't catch us. We'll get right by 'em," King said about the U.S. Border Patrol and Mexican law enforcement.

This shows that Bush is living on borrowed time.

WMD's could be brought across and used anytime. We have actually done a fair job of closing off the normal ways to get WMD into this country. So it is only natural that terrorist would try the easiest way. Sad, but if we have a fairly large event due to terrorist coming across our broken border, then in just days you we will finally see the border closed by troops......then we should impeach Bush.

Bush is not living on borrowed time...

We are. The American people will be the one to suffer what ever scheme is delivered over our border (illegals or violence). Bush nor any of his family will suffer any of it. That family has been part of the elitists for a very long time.
