SACRAMENTO, Calif.


The Bush administration has been unable to muster even half of the 2,500 National Guardsmen it planned to have on the Mexican border by the end of June.

As of Thursday, the next-to-last day of the month, fewer than 1,000 troops were in place, according to military officials in the four border states of Texas, California, New Mexico and Arizona.


President Bush's plan called for all 50 states to send troops. But only 10 states _ including the four border states _ have signed commitments.

1. Gee, I wonder where else those guard troops are at?

Maybe there be plenty available in November when cut & run Casey brings em home right before the election. Why do we need troops a the border anyway. Aren't the minute gals doing their job.
