POLITICAL PARTICLES IN MOTION, SUSPENDED IN GAS. With the midterm elections looming, politicians have accelerated their Brownian motion—that is “the random movement of microscopic particles suspended in gas or liquid.” BHO is sending the promised bureaucrats to the border, to act in a “command-and-control’ and other support positions.” Presumably, to supervise local troopers and make sure they do not use force against aggressors:
Administration officials on Monday announced that the 1,200 National Guard troops pledged weeks ago by President Obama will deploy to the southwest border starting on Aug. 1 as part of an effort to bring the region “under control.”
Alan Bersin, commissioner of Customs and Border Protection, said the troops would “support” the work of Department of Homeland Security personnel already operating on the border.
“The Guard has been a tried and tested support to law enforcement … and I’m confident they’ll prove it again in this instance,” Bersin said.
He said the deployment will coincide with a boost in surveillance technology in the region.
The rights of life, liberty and property are meaningless—rights in name only—unless defended vigorously and forcefully against aggressors.
