I went to a family reunion today, and my family has such gooooood cooks. Unforunately, I couldn't resist the dessert bar, and now I'm buzzed on SUGAR.

Duh! Would you remind repeating the question, please? Thanks.

I wasn't watching C-Span when the House nixed off-shore drilling because it would "harm Tourism."

If gasoline prices skyrocket much more, just how many Tourists do the think will come?

"Do you believe Mexico is so corrupt and lawless that it could not be Americanized with a little stewardship?"
I believe that, YES!
Iraq has seen the terrors of toltolitarianism, they are much more likely to embrace democracy that Mexico.
Bribery is rampant, and it circumvents every aspect of effective government. Mexico is a culture that expects and rewards bribery.

Its the PEOPLE that need a change, not the government! And buying out the government does nothing to change the people.
There going to have to reap what they have sown and fix things themselves. Thats tough love.

In the mean time...BUILD THE FENCE!

Some sort of American partnership - some corporate, some not.

If Mexico is incurably corrupt, why did we sign onto NAFTA?

Oh, yeah.

I called to ask about making a donation. He told me where to locate the information on their website. Personal checks have to be sent to their Houston address. I asked him if there is a Chapter in my State. He said no. I said I am concerned that things are really going to turn bad in the U. S., and he agreed with me, without saying anything else on the subject. I don't know if anyone were "listening," and that is the reason he didn't say anything else, or what.

And Vicente Fox and friends wish to continue exporting chaos in the guise of illegal aliens, all to prop up his corrupt regime.

You have the plot of a good James Bond movie. With Vicente Fox as the evil mastermind. Who will play James Bond?

A prime reason I supported him in '92. And he beat AlGore in their NAFTA debate

Why, just because they've been called 'vigilantes' and there's no need for warrants to wiretap U.S. citizens "of interest"? /sarc

Anthony Quinn, if he's still alive?

Remember that movie some years ago with Kevin Coster and Anthony Quinn as the very wealthy and powerful Mexican? Kevin Coster fell in love with the character's wife (Anthony Quinn's).

They cut up her face.

What was the name of that film?
