"The major problems are diesel emissions, Yea diesel emissions, that could be "the major problem" with trucks coming freely, un-checked across the border.

From what I saw on FOX last night, they showed the Mexican trucks going through a check point where their emissions were tested, before they crossed into the US.

Time to listen to your base, El Presidente: Enough pandering to the Mexicans.The Democrats just gave you a huge present by outlining their amnesty plans which are even worse than yours, but don't push your luck on this one. We're damned tired of Mexico getting favors it doesn't deserve. Where the Hell is the reciprocity from Fox??? Haven't seen them do a damn thing for the US - NOT ONE!!!

I'm for free trade, and he may be doing what's right by the issue, I don't know. But on its face this looks like another pander to Hispanics.
And IMO the consequences of pandering to Hispanics is far worse then just illegals and trucks.
Pandering to any ethnic group rewards them for putting their ethnic identity before the interests of America.
I Know many people who have all sorts of different backgrounds, German, Italian, English, Irish, etc and some of them value their cultural roots but I don't know a one of them who puts their ethnic identity above their American identity.
The fact that many Hispanics are putting their Hispanic tribal interests before their Americanness, and that it is being enocouraged, is disturbing and may cause long term damage to this country.

Bush Wants Court to Reverse Mexican Trucks Rule
Anybody having any reservations on President Bush's intentions for the future of Mexico's labor force on the United States economy?
First, he endorses cheap labor. Then, he gestures towards legalizing millions of illegal workers.
Then, he pressures Congress to further weaken the already about to collapse Social Security sytem by offering it up to Mexico.
Now this - levelling every trucker's job in the United States to that of a third world nation migrant worker.
Trucker's jobs.

Trucking in the US is already in some trouble. independent truckers are a fairly conservative group as well. Too bad for them!
To: Happy2BMe
I'll be damned, I thought Bush really wanted to be re-elected. Guess not.
To: VU4G10
Yesterday it was the NEA--now my roads will be full of foreign drivers. Soaring deficit, big spending, amnesty for lawbreakers...
And the truckers I know will get new competition from non-Americans.
I sure would like to ask W a few questions. Every day, a new thing to dismay me. Is he trying to drive away my vote with a sharp stick?

Title should read "Buch creates more jobs for illegals that Americans won't do".
President Bush earnestly seeking to depress wages in the trucking industry making room for guest worker applicants.
Everyone will benefit.

Everytime I turn around Bush is doing something to help out the Mexicans. What is with this guy? What does Fox have on him? I wish he would work half as hard for the American Taxpayer as he does for the Mexican crowd.

But critics say Bush is using the trucking issue to forge better ties with Mexico and special interest groups while ignoring the American worker................
Screw the American worker. Send him out to fight in Iraq, Afgahnistan and elsewhere. (/sarcasm)

Does Fox have blackmail photos or something? This is just wrong to keep pandering like this. Why should we suffer emissions and another country gets a free pass to muck up our air. I always thought some of the brown cloud coming into Phoenix came from L.A.. Maybe it's really coming from Mexico.

Emissions, shmeemissions--
It's the drivers!!
Have you ever driven in Mexico?

It makes you wonder who came up with the strategery for the war on terror? Couldn't have been GW, he can't be that good at foreign policy and bad at domestic policy can he? Then again, he has the genetics thing going for him doesn't he. Like father like son. Bush the first lost because he was perceived as weak on the domestic front, looks like we are headed for round two. Did you ever think that GW has served his purpose, and now the puppeteers are making sure there is a Democrat in the WH in '05?
