Lou Dobbs Tonight -- CNN -- December 5 Rep. Bilbray:
The cartels are taking over the northern part of Baja and the
border region mostly because we're allowing them to make money
bringing drugs and aliens north and money south. It's very scary. Wian: It's also another blow to President Felipe Calderon's
war on drugs. 25,000 federal troops have failed to loosen the
cartel's grip on huge areas of Mexican territory._While U.S.
official continue to investigate the tunnel, Mexican law enforcement
say they're determined to find out who killed the police chief.
Anyone that dared cross the cartels, whether a citizen or public
official, is risking his life. Dobbs: No question about it. The drug cartel violence
goes on, unabated and indeed is expanding assassinations, popular
music groups there and vocalists, singers. Tell us what is being
done about that now. Wian: ..They are so brazen as to assassinate him next
to his wife as she slept and his children are in the house. It
shows how they operate with impunity in Mexico. Watch Tecate
