I somehow seriously doubt he came up with this on his own. This is the brainchild of someone in the Justice Department, I suspect. Or maybe State, though less likely. I think it would be extremely interesting to know with whom this idea originated, and why they thought the Mexicans would go along with it.
I can’t think of a single reason why the Mexicans wouldn’t go along with it. Sovereignty is clearly not a concern to them, and we’re funding it to the tune to half a billion dollars. They would be fools not to.
It really doesn’t matter which treasonous piece of dung actually came up with the idea. It belongs to Bush. If he doesn’t shoot it down, he is just as culpable as if he had thought of it himself. And for the record, this is the guy who wanted to put his secretary on the Supreme Court. I have no trouble believing that something like this would be one of his brain-children.
