He may not be a RINO but he certainly is willing to give up our Sovereignty to help Bush integrate us with Mexico and Canada:

SEC. 5. CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE FUND.
(a) IN GENERAL- The terms of the agreement establishing the Fund shall, subject to the limitation in subsection (b), require the Governments of Canada, Mexico, and the United States to contribute to the Fund.
Cornyn/Kyl also want the Mexican government to pay the medical bills of illegals and guest workers in the US! I wonder which takes a bigger bite out of our pocket? A fund that helps Mexico become a better place to live and work so that they are not coming here in the millions sounds like a real solution to me. I also like the idea of having Mexico foot the medical bills of their citizens.
