WTH's W waiting for on this!
He's trying to secure a deal with a Mexican company owned by the Mexican government to enforce our immigration laws. Apparently, no one wants to do the job here and they can do it much cheaper. It's all part of the new global economy. Yeah, Yemen and Iran already guard our border with Canada. China and Russia are protecting the Pacific for us. And we leased a consortium of Liberian/Nigerian navy ships to patrol the Atlantic. Finally, the UK has given Somolian pirates access to Diego Garcia in a new strategy, apporved by their courts and not their Parliament, to patrol the Indian Ocean on the cheap.
It's a great plan. I hear no one disobeys laws because everyone involved makes enormous amounts of tax money.

Post #25 is intended as a parody of the UAE situation, as seen through a different context--namely running our borders.
The way I hear it, the US Border Patrol said it didn't sign off on it, then after someone got hold of them, they released a document this week saying the deal was great for America. Safest, most effective form of protection for our borders against illegal aliens is to use Mexicans. Anyone against the idea is no doubt a racist and too stupid to understand the complexities of today's world. (Sarcasm still on)

I'm not happy about the deal. Just like I wasn't happy about the Japanese buying Rockefeller Center in 1985. I would have been even less happy had they done so in 1950 and I'm sure the outrage would have been similar since it would have been only nine years since the attack on Pearl Harbor. But in 1950 Japan became an important ally in the Cold War as a staging area for the Korean War.
