And when BATFE finds that the gun dealers are not selling vast quantities of guns that end up in Mexico in the Houston area, are they going to state that fact on national TV and in all the major papers, in a complete refutation of everything the Mexicans and the Obamists keep braying to stir up the people? Don't make me laugh.

I'd also like to know where the Department of Justice gets off allowing the Mexicanos direct access to a Federal database. It is one thing for the Mexicans to ask us to check OUR databases with information provided by the Mexican government, where we tell them the results. That's being a good neighbor. But direct access? I would tell them not only no, but "Hell, no!" This is an intrusion by the Mexicans on American sovereignty. They get all hot and bothered when we request access to their files and are not what I would call cooperative. I think we ought to extend them the same level of cooperation and prompt response to their requests we get from them. Sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.
