Here's something that bothered the hell out of me. I saw Bush at a conference where he spoke of tightening our CANADIAN borders! What a joke that is... The borders we need to tighten are on Mexico, Not with Canada. Jesus, this makes me want to puke. Why is it that we need to let Mexicans come into our country so that they can legislate on their behalf to OUR government??? How come that is the standard? Why aren't we going to Mexico and participating in their elections? Why aren't we exerting our influence on them???

Oh wait, I think I know why, They have nothing, and are an impoverished nation. Let's see, they are also a 3rd world nation whose populus lives in a standard that is beyond our comprehension of squalor. Then again, we don't send our people down there to take jobs, they send theirs up here. Their people after getting jobs here send money back to Mexico. That money in turn fuels THEIR government and THEIR economy. If you want to devalue the American Dollar, a good way would be for it to become the standard currency of Mexico.

Mexico is turning into a giant welfare state. It's people take for granted that they can come here and ship money back home. It's sad really that our country lets this happen. Of course, it's the land of oppurtunity, and with the immigrant problem, the land of oppurtunists.

I agree with you on the Canadian border, and I also agree with you on sending the money back to Mexico. Now several American banks, Wells Fargo for one, is jumping on the bandwagon and helping the illegals open checking accounts with their phony Mexican ID cards. By doing this, they can transfer money to Mexico at a fraction of the cost that they are paying now.

The problem isn't just Mexico. The government is totally out of control. Check this out.

US TO RESETTLE THOUSANDS OF SOMALIS
