Fox is actually a conservative. If we think it's bad now, I wonder what will happen if Mexico goes to the leftists.
In 2000 people hoped he would be the Mexican Ronald Reagan. Instead it's been more of the same, only the faces have changed.
Will we have to pay for her funeral?
Outside of all politics I feel for his loss.
Does the US get to pay for her funeral?
You're exactly right . Fox is not that good , but the alternative is unthinkable .....
Please put politics aside. His mother died.
if that's what it takes to remove the oligarchy there - let it. Mexico could be an economic powerhouse, if not for the controls of the business oligarchs and corrupt government that strangles their economy.
If we think it's bad now, I wonder what will happen if Mexico goes to the leftists.

Given the present occupant of the White House, and the Senate, does it really make any difference how bad Mexico is? Fox is exporting his poverty and his crime at will, with little restriction. He is happy. So is Bush and the RINOs, and so are the libs who want and will get the Mexican votes.
Only the REAL American citizen is a loser in this travesty.
are you kidding, this family is very wealthy.
Boy, talk about a crass way to go for the sympathy vote,.....
Fox has advanced the best plan he can. He tried to enforce laws on the books and was rewarded with riots in the streets by the law-breakers (ring a bell?)
He knows he needs the illegals to be in the USA and he knows he needs their money they send home. At least give him points for handling Realpolitik as best as he can. If you lean on the big dude (US) and the big dude allows it, that is TCB for your side of the fence.
My mom died young (64) and I miss her badly. I will say a prayer for Fox and hope he doesn't feel the pain I do. You generally get one Mom. The loss of that is pretty significant.
She must have been a wonderful mother(and May she Rest in Peace)but it does not negate the fact that her son was a lousy President.
RIP
Uh....he (Vincente) is NOT running.....
Whoops,....Well, I still don't like him. Or his country or his politics. His mother,..I don't know about.
I guess I thought he was like Kerry, Hillary or Gore, always running for something.
