T-Paw makes (politically-calculated) run for the border

Minneapolis Star-Tribune says Tim Pawlenty's office has informed them that the governor is going to Mexico next month to chat with Mexico's President about helping....

".... Minnesota-based companies increase exports to the country, build strategic relationships and explore new business opportunities."

Speaking of border issues, I just finished David McCullough's excellent bio on Truman, and included is a very Cormac McCarthy type quote about the border battles between Missouri and Kansas in the 1800's.

"The Devil came to the border, liked it, and decided to stay awhile.”

There's a page 1, voice-over for your next movie, Coen-bros.
