Mexico's foreign secretary needs to take a long walk north. After his sorry butt gets hauled out of the desert by American tax dollars and volunteers, he might have a leetle more respect. If not make him walk back too.(make sure he gets some of those free designer sneakers too!)

"Mexico is not going to bear, it is not going to permit, and it will not allow a stupid thing like this wall," How many divisions does mexico have?

What a hypocrite Mexico is.

Let Americans get away with the stuff that Mexicans do here in America. They'd be stuffed away in a dingy cell so fast it'll make your head swim. American tourists are always being hassled in Mexico.

What has to be done is to start a campaign of saturation bombing of the entire border region, including the dropping of anti-personal mines in an area 1 KM south of the border.

Then we implement well regulated and patroled "safe passage lanes" for legal commerce and turn the rest of the border into a kill zone.

How's that, Vicente? You want to party? Bring it on. jefe.

Why do Guatemalans have no right to waltz across the border "norte" but Mexicans have the right to come and go as they please in the U.S.?

Speaking of which...have you ever tried to waltz across the border into Mexico??? You can't even take a four hour drive once you are in Mexico, without at least two or three stops with searches by the military.

Mexican President Vicente Fox denounced the U.S. measures, passed by the House of Representatives on Friday, as "shameful" and his foreign secretary, Luis Ernesto Derbez, echoed his complaints on Tuesday."

And has Dubya Bush countered the "war of words" by characterizing Fox's reaction as "odd"?

"denounce rights violations "

And what would those be? American rights or Mexican?

Oh ....so as long as we let immigrants break our laws and cross the boarder illegally they will not shine the spotlight on our "abuses" of said immigrants...

Sounds like a compromise born in h@ll and based on lies.

Have these people been talking to the DNC?

Because of the ideology of globalism - which is liberalism's government "diversty" slogans, Mexico mistakes itself as powerful enough to dictate to the US and all other countries. What a mistake...BIG MISTAKE.

"Re-Conquista NUNCA VEZ !!!"

Hear me Burro?

Mexico will be the territory of the United States of America long before even one inch of America becomes "Mexican".

Guess that they don't like Robert Frost in Mexico, because, "good fences make good neighbors."

Get caught with bullets in your car--no guns--just bullets, you go to jail in Mexico.

Why don't they teach English in Mexican schools? When I go to Mexico, they expect me to read, speak Spanish.

Any questions I had about the wall were answered by this emotional tirade.

--I know now: The wall will work--

Mexico Promises to Block Border Wall Plan

and in response:

I'll promise that I'll enter the number of illegals that are in our country on line 6D of my 2005 form 1040 as the dependants I appear to have. Everybody against illegals needs to follow suit.

Border Wall Plan..

We're heading back to the "castle era"...

I dont see any danger if Mexico is going to be mad about this... are they going to send their special forces?

The Mexican government, angered by a U.S. proposal to extend a wall along the border to keep out migrants, pledged Tuesday to block the plan and organize an international campaign against it.

Block the plan? Excuse me? The nerve...

"We learned to believe in the United States. We have a binational life," he said of Zacatecas, a state that has been sending migrants north for more than a century. "It isn't just a feeling of rejection. It's against what we see as part of our life, our culture, our territory."

Gee, that's nice but the part about a "binational life" and seeing the USA as part of "our territory" is exactly the problem we have with the illegal immigrants and Mexico.

Understand this: The USA is NOT a part of Mexico and Mexican nationals who come to the USA illegally and a live a life here, breaking the laws of the USA and in doing so steal from the citizens of the USA are the reason why we want a border fence/wall. Securing our borders and enforcing our laws is the duty of government officials.

This is just UFB.

"It isn't just a feeling of rejection. It's against what we see as part of our life, our culture, our territory."

It's not YOURS until you pay for it. Illegals have been living free off of US taxpayers for decades. Our porous borders will be the death of us one way or the other: terrorist attack or economic suicide.

"Mexico is not going to bear, it is not going to permit, and it will not allow..........

That third-world abortion of a nation sure has an inflated opinion of itself...
