Anyone out there STILL believe that Mexico is our 'friend'?

Remember Mexico votes against us in the UN all the time.

They are a country of socialist/liberals...it's ALWAYS someone else's fault...and the blame is usually put on the only people trying to help.

We need to keep the billions in aid we send Mexico (not to mention the care of their migrant citizens!) and tell them to just shut up!

“”It is not an exclusively Mexican problem, it is a common problem between Mexico and the United States,” he said.

“I want to know how many American officials have been prosecuted for this [corruption].” “

Build the fence! Build it tall!

It's a damned good thing I wasn't elected president.

I would have recalled my ambassador to Mexico immediately and would have appointed John Bolton as Secretary of Defense.

We'd be working overtime on SDI, putting Iran out of business and paying attention to our main SA ally: Colombia.

The Monroe Doctrine would be enforced and Cuber would be put on notice to load the Castro Brothers on a boat headed for Miami, or else!

We'd have to face the music as far as Russia and China is concerned and emphatically state that things will change or we'll have to have that showdown now. Too damned bad it didn't happen in 1945!

Then I'd put a padlock on both houses of Congress and tell them as Alberto Fujimori told his parliament: "Leave! You're getting in my way!"

Then I'd probably wake up from this pleasant dream.

Caution. This is Al Jazeera reporting on some AFP reported. Two suspect sources of information right off the bat. We don’t send billions of aid to Mexico, we send nothing, never have, with the exception of the recent Merida initiative funding, which is being paid to fight our drug war. What we do is allow their peons to come here and take advantage to the tune of billions. Calderon is not from the socialist-lib side of Mexican politics, exactly the opposite. He comes under heavy attack domestically for his free market policies. He is significantly to the right of most of the Mexican populace, which voted him (and Fox) in because the PRI was suicidally corrupt, and not for economic reasons. Knowing AFP, and knowing Al Jazeera, I have serious doubts about the accuracy of this story. Countries don’t have friends, they have common interests.

Don't count on the Justice Department to lend much help in the way it should...with force.

Each state and some cities must take a 'granite-wall-stand' against illegal drugs. Our Judges must impose harsh laws and if need be our legislatures must enact those laws immediately. If I had my way, people who push drugs would face the death penalty first time arrested with no appeal...they deal in death so what's the difference, it is the same trigger for death. Otherwise, all Obama's "a clearer, more decisive response" is just so much hot air. Mexico? The drug cartels pretty much run that country so take them with a grain of salt...La Raza is culpable...

>> Felipe Calderon also told the AFP news agency that the main cause of Mexico’s drug gang problems was “having the world’s biggest consumer [of drugs] next to us”...”Drug trafficking in the United States is fuelled by the phenomenon of corruption on the part of the American authorities,” he said on Wednesday. <<

Well, he’s partially right. If it weren’t for the corrupt, open-borders crowd (Obama, McCain, Bush, Kennedy, etc.), law-enforcement would have a much better leg up at drug enforcement. Unfortunately, he’s part of that corruption so its cakehole time for him.

Well, let's assume, for the sake of argument, that it's a rational argument.

Then let's prohibit the sending of American $s to Mexico by Mexican illegal aliens in the US, because the production of so much wealth triggers additional robberies in Mexico...

This could be an opportunity, AuntB.

Why don’t we deport about 20 million of his expatriates to Ciudad Juarez to help him with the crime problem?

And of course, when Mexico completely collapses, this lowlife batnard will want political asylum in the US.

The only element that keeps the cartels in business are the users, so the logical thing to do is start prosecuting users on this side of the border: Jail them and put the producers and the pushers out of business.

Why doesn’t that get done?
