Cocktail Doing Job Our PRESIDENT Just Won’t Do!
I suppose this is supposed to be another bleeding heart sob stories about the poor innocent immigrants who just want a better life so they can do the jobs Americans won’t do. Problem is, that these innocent “immigrants” are breaking American law by sneaking into this country through the desert. If they want to come here, perhaps they should follow the immigration procedure at their local US Embassy.
So, rather than getting all teary eyed over the criminals dying with overdoses of caffeine in the desert, let’s just say that caffein, ephedra, and Red Bull are doing the job our President just won’t do: stopping illegals from entering our country!

Friday, June 22, 2007U.S. Border Patrol agents say illegal immigrants are being given a potentially deadly cocktail of energy-generating items in hopes of speeding up their mad dash into the country, but agents are worried that the items may be increasing dehydration and leading to death in the baking hot brush country, 1200 WOAI news reports today.
“They’re giving them what we call a ‘triple stacker’,” Border Patrol agent Jesus Rodriguez says. “That consists of an ephedrine-type bill, along with an aspirin, along with making them drink Red Bull.”
Red Bull is an energy drink, which promotes itself as ’specially developed for times of increased mental and physical exertion.’ It claims to ‘increase endurance, concentration, and reaction speed.’
It works similar to the ‘jolt’ people get from coffee, through doses of caffeine and an amino acid called ‘taurine.’
Ephedrine is a stimulant commonly used in weight loss products.
“They’re getting a triple dose of caffeine, and that really exacerbates the dehydration process as they’re walking across the desert,” Rodriguez said.
