                 COLOMBIAN DRUG POLICY TOWARDS AMERICA

  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, while American politicians just say no, 
reports say that the Colombian drug cartel has placed a $200,000 bounty 
on our border patrol. No limits. Kill five agents, you get $1 million.
  Now, if that is not enough to tarnish our slogan, Colombia also plans 
to increase production of cocaine by 20 percent; and Colombia will 
expand their coca bush planting to 465 square miles, 465 square miles, 
and most of it targeted for the United States of America.
  Beam me up, Mr. Speaker. While American troops are guarding borders 
overseas, vaccinating dogs in Haiti, the drug lords of Colombia are 
shooting our border patrol.
  A Nation without secure borders is a Nation without security.
  I yield back the crime, death, addiction, and stupidity in America.
