Will Bush Tell Mexico's Fox to Take a Hike (And Not Across the Border)
Cpaitol Hill Journal ^ | Jan. 5, 2006 | Jim Kouri

Posted on 01/05/2006 7:24:16 AM PST by WatchYourself

The Mexican government is initiating a far-reaching investigation. It's not an investigation into the rampant corruption within all levels of its government. And it's not an investigation into the Mexican crime gangs, drug traffickers and human smugglers. No, the target of this intense investigation -- one that's being trumpeted by the usual anti-Americans in the US news media -- is the killing of an illegal alien by a US Border Patrol agent defending himself.

A former Bush advisor, Rob Allyn, is helping Presidente Vincente Fox to use the illegal alien's death to again draw attention to what Mexicans believe is an unfair US anti-immigration policy. Fox knows that if the US gets serious about border security, he will not only have to deal with a reduction in Mexico's revenue -- money illegal workers send back to his country -- but he will actually have to deal with the tens of thousands of violent criminals who enter the US illegally everyday.

The killing of an 18-year-old illegal immigrant near the security wall on the San Diego-Mexican border comes at a time when Mexico's government continues its vocal campaign against the border security and illegal immigration bill approved by the US House of Representatives in December. Many Mexicans oppose the US measure, which would build more border fences, make illegal entry a felony and enlist military and local police to help stop undocumented migrants.

Build the wall. Twenty feet high, three feet thick at the base, steel-reinforced concrete.

It is about time the WEAK WASHINGTON elitist government stood up for American citizens. A novel idea, I know. The politically-driven liberalism that Washington continues to strap the American people with, is killing this nation, its values, and raping the U.S. taxpayer and REAL citizens.

It is time too that Americans DEMAND that their government look out for THEIR interests. Not those of ILLEGAL MEXICAN INVADERS not only IN our country, but constantly crossing our borders to become parasites on America.

Boys and Girls, you are witnessing the BEGINNING OR THE END OF UNCHECKED ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. Pile it on Vincinte, your mouth is doing as much as any 10 minutemen.

Raul Martinez, a spokesman for the Border Patrol said the agent had been "assaulted by an individual who threw a large size rock." "The agent, fearing for his life at that time, fired one round at the individual, who fled back to Mexico," Martinez said Monday.

This is an outrage, an embarrassment to our nation at the highest level and I demand an investigation. Everyone knows in the case of deadly force, you should fire TWO shots, not one. Double-tap. Then again, he did kill the guy with only one shot, so he saved a bullet. Call it a cost-cutting measure and pass the savings back to we taxpayers.

People can climb over a 20 foot wall with help, but if you make it 35 feet they will have a very difficult time getting over.

Problem is what comes after Fox, very good chance in next election that Fox could be replaced by the mayor of Mexico City, who makes Hugo Chavez look like a nice guy.

"Call it a cost-cutting measure and pass the savings back to we taxpayers."

The biggest cost savings was mortally wounding the guy and making Mexico stand the medical expense of futally trying to save his butt.

Actually, a more bellicose tone from Mexico would probably make it easier to take action. Fox is a pretty smooth and sneaky scurvy scumbag, plays a political game well. I'd love to have a guy in Mexico badmouthing and throwing around rhetoric. That wall would be done in a week.

How about under? There are many tunnels from there to here already.

They are having a hard time tunneling under the wall in Israel.

Rumour has it from some disaster firms that they are preparing for Civil War in Mexico City. I wonder if that's why. When's the 'election'?
