WASHINGTON - Border security, not immigration, is expected to monopolize a series of meetings that begin today among top Homeland Security Department officials and their Mexican counterparts in Mexico City.

The two-day talks will include a private breakfast meeting between Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge and Mexican President Vicente Fox on Friday morning.

...this meeting comes soon after Mexicans shouted "Osama, Osama, Osama" at Americans during a sporting event.... What conservatives don't understand is that the more you give into leftist demands, the more they despise and disrespect you. That should have spelled the end of the Guest Worker program that day. The Dutch (of all people) are rounding up 26,000, our problem is 100 times that big, but we are 100 times the size of the Netherlands. Think of the boon to the airlines. They should be flown to Guatemala, and then try to get INTO Mexico...Bwahahahahahahahahah

"Washington-based Council on Hemispheric Affairs"

Seems like a new lobbyist group springs up every week. This one smells like New World Order/UN Domination.

And that doesn't smell like roses for the U.S.

...the Bush administration remains more worried about dealing with border security issues than about immigration matters.

Worried about dealing with border security? There needs to be less worrying and more securing.
