Whats good for Mexico is probably good, in the long term, for the United States as well;See? I'll bet a lot of us thought this was a one-way street, and a lot of the article pretty much confirms that. But after seeing how how great this deal is for Mexico, it turns out that there is something good in it for the United States too. Probably.

I guess Mexico is now unofficially the 51st state and this guy thinks he is one of the two Senators in the new delegation. His remarks are not all that different from Kennedy, McCain, Graham, and the rest of the Senate traitors.
Thanks, Whore-hay, for helping us to make our point. When we finally invade Mexico as part of cleaning your corrupt government up, we'll shoot you last.

NO nation is as involved in United States immigration as Mexico, and no governments cooperation will be as necessary as Mexicos if immigration reform is to succeed. Nothing quite like a false premise to get you going in the morning.

There are three Mexican objections to the bill as it stands.And why should we care about what the government of Mexico thinks of our immigration policy?

“Hes not really from Tijuana, I just made that part up. All I know is he is not from America and he doesnt get a vote on this.”
We should all call the mexican capital and tell them to stop messing in our affairs.
To: Eric Blair 2084
Why don’t we just move the White House and Senate to Mexico City. The marching orders given to our elected officials by their elected officials won’t have to travel as far.
Are there any DC politicians left that haven’t completely surrendered to some other nation?

Rep. Jorge Castanedas (D-Tijuana), The last objection is more substantive; it is, in fact, a potential deal breaker. Deal Breaker? With who? You? HAHAHAHAHA!
Jorge, is your sombrero on too tight?

No nation is as involved in United States immigration as Mexico...So I have noticed!
Mexican Consulates Offer Healthcare Help
A program called Ventanillas de Salud, or Health Windows, aims to provide Mexican immigrants with basic health information, cholesterol checks and other preventive tests. It also makes referrals to U.S. hospitals, health centers and government programs where patients can get care without fear of being turned over to immigration authorities.
SNIP
Health services to illegal immigrants in Los Angeles County cost the Medi-Cal program nearly $440 million in 2005, according to the California Department of Health Services. Statewide, that number was more than $1.1 billion last year.

“It would ensure the continued flow of money back to workers families here; and the returning workers would bring the skills they acquire in the United States to demonstrate to others and use to start businesses here.”
Continued flow of money back to Mexico....
Demonstrate skills learned here to start businesses there..
It blows my mind... How long has Mexico been a nation??

Amid all the sound and fury, I stand ready to be the first to proclaim that the status quo was the objective and will be proved so when all the smoke clears and the yelling stops.
Not one of the major players wants to lose what he has if he can’t gain what another has.
A standoff plays as well as any so-called victory.

First, the Senate plan would legalize almost all of the roughly
six million Mexicans in the United States today without papers.
I suspect that's a significant UNDER-estimation.
Even The Los Angeles Times mentions about how most of the villages of
Mexico are simply emptied of working-age folks...all gone to El Norte.
