Time to go buy a bigger wheelbarrow 'cause here comes some more codswallop.
Former Mexican President Vicente Fox and his pal Rob Allyn advocating for the downtrodden and trying to influence U.S. public opinion:
The American dream: A beacon of hope, not walls of fear
By Vicente Fox & Rob Allyn
Nov. 10, 2007
Excerpts:
As Americans [that's right, Vicente Fox is an American] we are, most of us, descendants of immigrants.
America is more than the name the United States gives to itself. In Canada, Mexico, Latin America and the Caribbean, we consider the entire hemisphere to be the Americas. America is the New World, a beacon of hope to the bold and the desperate. In this sense we are all Americans.
America is not just a country or even a hemisphere, but an ideal.
[The haunting strains of Kumbaya can be heard in the background if you listen carefully.]
We long for an America of bridges, not walls. An America where gates of love open to those caught in the barbed wire of hate. An America of open hearts and arms, where today, we find too many closed minds.
Most of all, we pray for a revolution of hope to restore the founding spirit of our hemisphere, where the Statue of Liberty once welcomed the eager dreams of our forebears.
Such a revolution of hope could help heal the divide between haves and have-nots, between America and the rest of the world.
It is the ideals of the American dream — liberty, equal opportunity, free trade, immigration, open doors of opportunity to every child — that make this country the last, best hope of freedom on this Earth.
A wall around the United States would suffocate the American dream.
It would be a terrible mistake to allow fear and xenophobia to wall the United States off from the rest of the world... The America we love, the America of our grandfathers, could never build that wall.
As neighbors, friends and partners in the American dream, we should stop building walls between us. Instead, we should join hands together, and build the American dream we all share.

That load by Fox and Allyn is enough to gag a maggot!! I’m waiting for the gathering on the hill with the coke cans to start “I’d like to teach the world to sing” any moment!
Hey, Fox, what partners in the American dream? We don't want the Mexican nightmare spilling north of the border. Comprende?????????????
