Mexican Troops Aid Katrina Victims

Unbelievably, Mexican troops made a historic trip yesterday from Mexico City to San Antonio to help aid victims of Hurricane Katrina. This is the first time Mexian troops have been on US soil in 159 years. It pleases me to know our neighbors from the south are willing to offer their assistance for the victims, but I also like the political message it sends. Sincerely, it's an unprecedented show of cooperation between the US and Mexico, and, more synically, it proves President Bush and his administration are incapable of utilizing our own country's resources to provide adequate aid to those affected, and that we have to look to Mexico for help. Unbelievable.
