A headline the GOP will love ...

UPDATE: Here's how the Sierra Vista Herald starts the story:
'Joke' report leads to alarm on border by Jonathan Clark, Herald/Review

NACO, Sonora, Mexico — A false report Friday that a heavily armed team of gunmen were advancing on Cananea, Sonora, led to widespread alarm in the local border area, with schools and businesses closing in Mexico and U.S. citizens reporting rumors of massive carnage in Sonora and Border Patrol pullbacks in Arizona.
Apparently Jonathan Clark is actually a reporter. Not like the fiction writers at the Daily Star.

Want an image of scared little people so the GOP can promise (promises being all their good for) to protect everyone while they rip them off. Well here's one:

Report of armed convoy alarms Naco

By Brady McCombs and Lourdes Medrano
Arizona Daily Star

NACO, Sonora — A report of an armed convoy of drug cartel gunmen heading toward Cananea and Naco sent local residents scrambling for cover Friday as police and government officials in Sonora and Arizona braced themselves for another round of violence.
Was that scary enough. The Arizona Daily Star has been writting GOP headlines for sometime now. Does the story get worse from there? Well no and then yes:
It turned out to be a false alarm, but the mobilization of law enforcement and the school and store closures in both Nacos illustrated the tension, fear and uncertainty that have overtaken the border region.
My all those scared little people, like we have here in the US, must be hidding behind the nearest Bush (as in vegetation not the one in the WH).
