Drones may be sent soon to help with border security, Napolitano says

Vatic Note:  Remember, this is how it started in Pakistan didn't it?  Also remember, the Afghani's hacked into the drones and made them crash, keep that in mind.   Now, why would a President order drones over a border That he has refused to guard by reducing Border Guards in this budge cycle,  cut the fencing project, and has said will do amnesty the same way he just did health care?  So, obviously,  Its not to keep illegals out, so why?  Speculation?  1.  To protect the crossers from us,  2. to set up surveillance of Americans,  3.  To bomb anyone who rebels, 3.  to speed up the drug running? 4. Last but not least the superhighway is on its way.... I bet that is it.  Do any of these make sense?  Well, whatever the reason, its not for the one stated.  That part is a fact.  Common sense rules here.  Further,  Ze Homeland Security is the biggest waste of money bar none and the most useless.  They didn't even arrest Paulson when he threatened martial law on congress if they did not pass the bailout bill back in 2008.  THAT, is and was CLASSIC Economic Terrorism, Remember?

AUSTIN – The federal government may soon send unmanned aircraft to scour West Texas and the state's coastal waters in an effort to boost border security, U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said in a letter to the governor sent Friday.


Perry had formally requested the assistance a week ago. The need also was underscored in a phone call that Democratic nominee Bill White had with Napolitano on Thursday.

Homeland Security has six drones and is working with the Federal Aviation Administration to get the necessary clearance to begin flying over Texas, Napolitano wrote.

Before operations start, ground control stations, pilots, sensor operators and maintenance support have to be allocated. She said that the governor would be kept apprised of the progress.

"This is encouraging news, and we are hopeful that this technology and additional federal resources will be deployed to Texas as soon as possible," said Perry spokeswoman Katherine Cesinger.

Perry has complained that the federal government has not done enough to secure the border, especially in light of escalating drug violence in Mexico border towns.
