Ray Walser of The Heritage Foundation wrote a great article: Mexico Anti-Cartel Aid: Still Strangling in Red Tape
"While Mexico’s drug cartel violence continues to mount and the recent sophisticated car bombing in Ciudad Juarez indicate possible foreign assistance to the drug lords, the Obama Administration received a less than stellar grade from the Government Accounting Office on its handling of delivery of help to the embattled Mexicans."
It gets worse:
"The GAO report also criticized an absence of performance guidelines and a solid timeline for delivery of goods and services."
So let me get this straight.
First, Pres Bush and Pres Calderon signed The Merida Plan in 2007 and it was funded by US Congress.
Second, Mexico desperately needs weapons and equipment to fight well armed and sophisticated cartels.
What exactly is causing the delay?
Doesn't Pres BO understand the urgency of the US-Mexico border mess? I guess that Pres BO is too busy doing "The View".
