"...human and labor rights are being violated more and more, won't protect the economy of the United States...

Can't comment on the protection of our economy, but the action will keep the American prison population stable.

Fox is trying to avoid the full Mussolini.

Wow, if el Presidente is so pissed off we MUST be doing something right.

After all, he doesn't work for us. Bush works for us and Fox works for the Mexicans. The rest of the world isn't SUPPOSED to like Bush. I'm always suspect of presidents who are so well-liked in the rest of the world.....shows that he's working more for THEM and less for us.

Self-serving, hypocritical remarks from this asshat only strengthen American resolve to send them all back.

Fox can kiss my butt. Deport the illegals and mine the border.

What's "disgraceful" and "shameful" is having a country that's so cr*ppy that most of its citizens want to leave it. Mr. Fox needs to clean his own house, and shut the heck up.

I do not understand how a wall along our border can be viewed as harmful to "human and labor rights". NOT having a wall along our border is harmful to human and labor rights; American human and labor rights, it seems.

I wonder how many Americans the Mexican border patrol has interecpted sneaking into their country across the border in the last year.

What an idiot!

It's shameful to protect our borders after 9/11 but it's okay to jail a 20yr old for getting drunk in Tijuana and getting into a fight, requiring bribes of the corrupt Mexican police to even let the kid see the light of day again.

How could he object to our insistence that his citizens enter the country legally, with all the protections of the law?

Why would he insist that they continue to cross on foot, dying in the desert, just to have no legal rights when they arrive where they are going?

Here's a novel thought Senor Fox, create an economy in your own lousy country so that your largest export isn't illegal alien slave labor and then maybe your citizens will stay in their own #$%$^& country and quit invading ours.........I know. I'm dreaming.

That's the whole thing, isn't it? Mexico demands special privileges for its citizens, but good luck to Americans who want reciprocation from the Mexican government on issues such as property rights, work permits, or criminal justice.

Old Vicente's just going to have to take the plunge - accepting the risk that Mexico's old money is going to suffer a lot of economic disruption from loss of corruption opportunities - and pledge to allow American citizens full economic rights in Mexico. When he does, the Mexican economy just might turn around and strengthen to the point that illegal immigration stops being an issue.

I wonder how the increased border security is going to affect the mexican ecconomy. Fewer illegals sending money to mexico. (and more of that money staying in the USA)

Here's a suggestion to ol' Vicente: clean up the corruption in your own damned government, you idiot. What you're seeing now is just the start of what's coming for you and your maggot-infested abomination you call Mexico.

Exactly. Try overstaying your vacation in Mexico or your visa and see how fast they lock you up for a very long time.

Can't we just invade the country and annex it once and for all? I mean really, how many times have we bailed out their economy........not to mention paying out benefits by the billions to their "citizens" who insist on breaking the law and coming here illegally.

Seriously, Mexico is slowly draining us dry, so just take them the hell over. It would be cheaper in the long run anyway.

"It would be hard to know what would happen to the economy of the United States if it wasn't for the enormous contribution, the productivity, the quality of work of our countrymen in that country," Fox said.
...
"What the United States needs is a young (work) force, energy, quality, productivity, which is what keeps that economy competitive and the only way it can stop losing jobs to Asia, to China," Fox added.

If Mexican workers are so wonderful, why isn't Mexico's economy flourishing and keeping them employed in their own country? Could it possibly be due to an endemic corruption problem in Mexico? Fox needs to get his own house in order - that would fix the immigration problem. His constant carping about U.S. policy won't get it done.

Amen to that - a woman at work asked me "aren't you ashamed that the rest of the world sees him as a cowboy?"

I answered - "Hell, no. I'm from Texas, and I like cowboys."
