Just like in the sanctuary cities, local officials try to mandate Federal law and foreign relations. That's not their job! BTW, ever notice how many pro-illegal immigration articles are written by Hispanic reporters and anti-American Middle East and WoT articles by presumably Islamic correspondents lately? It's like the fox guarding the henhouse, IMO.

Wow, “DOZENS” of them. Considering the obvious media bias inherent, that must be the realistic equivalent of “not a whole lot.”

These mayors probably have the same constituency going back and forth across the border, so they probably don’t care a lick about sovereignity.

Resentment against the wall runs deep in the border areas of Texas.

Here's a little news flash for you, pal. Americans harbor a LOT of resentment against the illegals invading our country. So, the best thing you can do is stay in Mexico! ALL of you!

Why would they stay in Mexico? We reward them for coming here illegally. Look at all the freebies they get (that we pay for.)

Someone needs to look in to Mr. Cook’ finances.

Of course they don't want to stay in Mexico. They've got it made 1000 times better in America than they do in that hell hole they're from. The thing that really angers me is that they're bringing it to America with them. At the rate they're going, we'll be a third world country in a decade.

I’ve noticed that too. I said yesterday Senators don’t determine foreign policy, MAYORS damn sure don’t!!

Mayor Cook is right, it is a “historic day” when the Mayor of a U.S. city shows his traitor stripes by supporting the agenda of a foreign country. Mr. Cook needs to recall what side of the border he lives on and that he is only one small part of the state of Texas. It sounds like he’s forgotten. Perhaps, some Texan should remind him.

So - what are we waiting for? To become a third world country in a ‘decade’? (IMHO, we are almost there, already.)

We need to demand of our lawmakers to get rid of the ‘anchor baby’ and demand that ALL social services and employment to illegals be stopped immediately. We also need to highly tax any monies wired to Mexico.

They will self-deport within three months.

I think something needs to be done about all the money wired to Mexico, too. If not a tax, a cap on how much can be sent and how often? Don’t we already have laws governing how much money can be taken/sent out of the country?

John Neck, a resident of border town of Brownsville in the far southeastern corner of Texas, made the long trek to El Paso in the west of the state for the event.

"Mexico is the most important country to the United States.

Pull your head out of the sand, John Neck, before Al Qaeda separates it from you.

Yeah, I know. It was pretty bad.

I just get so tired of the idiots that think that all our nation is good for, is the provision of hand-outs at the expense of United States Citizens.

Fix Mexico and leave our nation alone you jackasses...

Well, we’ll just build the wall a little bit north of El Paso then.

For all of the talk of La Raza about Mexico reclaiming California and Texas, a little known fact is that a Division of Texas Rangers (12 Rangers) is planning an attack on Mexico to annex it as South Texas.

I heard a caller on LA talk radio yesterday, a heavily accented man who said he was a mexican national and a leagal immigrant to the US. He went on to say the thing with illegal mexicans was, well, we Americans stole this land from mexico and bla bla bla.

I wanted to ask him to explain why then were illegals pouring into places like North Carolina and well, every damn state in the Union. Immigrants like this self procalaimed “legal resident” we don’t need more of.

Regards

So who stole Mexico from the Indians, I don’t think they were speaking Spanish when the conquistadors showed up.

Can there be any question about the patriotism of the these mayors?
The mexican is very patriotic. He is trying to dump his leaches on us which is the mexican patriotic thing to do. The American mayor has no patriotism and should be removed.
