They feel heat alright, but its to little, to late. This should have started back in Kiltons years. Mexico will not take these people back. Our country does not have the guts to dump them on a shore somewhere. Nothing will happen.

When I called FEMA after my roof was torn off, and instructions were given in Spanish and English, I knew Mexico had won the war.

When we kill Iran, this will be forgotten.

The hell with Mexico not taking them back.
WE WON'T DEPORT them.

trust me...this should have been taken care of even before Clinton...I watched illegals stream across the San Diego border back in 1985.

What war? The commander-in-chief-select surrendered before any debate could be brought up about the war!

We are now one of the largest Spanish-speaking nations in the world. We're a major source of Latin music, journalism and culture.

Just go to Miami, or San Antonio, Los Angeles, Chicago or West New York, New Jersey ... and close your eyes and listen. You could just as easily be in Santo Domingo or Santiago, or San Miguel de Allende.

For years our nation has debated this change -- some have praised it and others have resented it. By nominating me, my party has made a choice to welcome the new America.

As I speak, we are celebrating the success of democracy in Mexico.

George Bush from a campaign speech in Miami, August 2000.

You can read the speech here.

Here is an excerpt of a good critique of that speech:

In equating our intimate historic bonds to our mother country and to Canada with our ties to Mexico, W. shows a staggering ignorance of the civilizational facts of life. The reason we are so close to Britain and Canada is that we share with them a common historical culture, language, literature, and legal system, as well as similar standards of behavior, expectations of public officials, and so on.

Then, if Mexico won't take these people back, let's take a chunk of Mexico of sufficient size to house them.

The Northern tier of states along our border could probably handle it.
