Heaven forbid we act as a sovereign nation by protecting our borders.

[Darkwolf377]

the Mexican government has taken out ads urging Mexican workers to denounce rights violations in the United States. It also is hiring an American public relations firm to improve its image and counter growing U.S. concerns about immigration.

Unbelievable. Or should I say, completely believable?

Wake up, Washington.

[P-40]

Perhaps they will block our wall with a wall of their own?

[SC33]

This is truly getting to the point where it is ridiculous beyond belief.

[Jewels1091]

**This is the quote that gets me, and I think that most of Mexico feels the same way**

"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."

[jwh_Denver]

Since Mexico is for this invasion of the United States it is an act of war which should be reponded to in kind.

[Ninian Dryhope]

"says the proposals could stem migration"

That's the general idea, Sherlock.

[Redleg Duke]

Battery adjust...shell HE...at my command!

[Redleg Duke]

They will get the corrupt ELCA to do their bidding.

[misharu]

Um . . . can't we build ANYTHING we want to on OUR side of the border?

And I really don't see what all the hootin' and hollerin' is about. If you come here legally, what is the problem?! *smacks head* OOHHH! You mean the ILLEGALS might be a bit inconvenienced! DOH!

[teacherwoes]

Maybe we should have annexed Mexico after we defeated them in war. That might have solved some problems.

[RedRover]

Think anyone in the MSM will ask Fox about Mexico's border policy with Guatemala? 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.?

[Names Ash Housewares]

Mexico makes a huge portion of money sent back by illegal immigrants. Mexico also has the United States as a pressure relief valve for its own massively corrupt society.

Imagine if these immigrants had to stay in their own country, and fix their own problems of their own government?

THAT is what the Mexican government fears more then anything I think.

[Hardastarboard]

Mexico is not going to bear, it is not going to permit, and it will not allow a stupid thing like this wall

You don't have any CHOICE, amigo. It's our country, NOT yours. You might want to ask Saddam Hussein what happens when a punk dictator of a two-bit third world sh!thole decides to take us on.

Is it obvious that this statement infuriates me?

[Old Flat Toad]

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!)

[adamsjas]

"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?

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

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.

[Phsstpok]

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.

[F16Fighter]

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"?

[DurtySanches]

"denounce rights violations "

And what would those be? American rights or Mexican?
