My personal musings about anything that gets on my radar screen--heavily dominated by politics.

Well, Duh

Rep. Bob Beauprez will attempt to amend the foreign aid bill to withhold aid from countries that refuse to extradite cop-killers.

Rep. Bob Beauprez wants to block $66 million in aid to Mexico if the country will not hand over accused cop-killers without strings attached.

Beauprez, an Arvada Republican, has joined forces with Rep. Patrick McHenry, R-N.C., on legislation inspired by the May 8 killing of Denver Police Detective Donald Young.

Their bill, expected to be filed this week, would cut off foreign aid to any country that fails to live up to extradition treaties in cases involving suspects accused of killing federal, state and local law enforcement officers.

While we're at it, let's attach a rider dealing with government personnel advising illegal immigrants on effective approaches to getting into our country.
