wire.antiwar.com - "If Mexican drug violence spills across the U.S. border, Homeland Security officials say they have a contingency plan to assist border areas that includes bringing in the military. The plan includes federal homeland security agents helping local authorities and maybe even military assistance from the Department of Defense, possibly including aircraft, armored vehicles and special teams to go to areas overwhelmed with violence, authorities said."

Nobody else but DHS knew about this "surge" plan? Man....I don't know. No new authorities, and probably no new funding either....what he's pulling rabbit out of the rat with some 150 hours to go to inauguration day?! The drug war in the border has been intensifying for a good part of last year but we're only hearing about this surge now? Oh, please, can we please retire the term "surge" for a while? It's getting awfully tired.
