"After all, Mexico is asking us to start down the path of eliminating our southern border and embracing a European Union-style shared sovereignty the least we can expect is for them also to eliminate barriers that are important to their nation."I'm laughing so hard I'm in tears here. We can't seal our Southern border with Mexico unless we build a version of the Great Wall, and even THAT won't stop people from bailing over somehow. It's ABOUT TIME we got SOMETHING out of Mexico besides illegals and empty rhetoric.
Fox, the Saddam mini-me, is scared.

Increase Eastern European Immigration!
Why? Because it will dillute the future voting power of the Mexican Aztlaners, and hence make it much easier for the GOP to cut back on the Goodies that all those Mexican Baby boomers are going to want from the Gooooooooooobermint when they grow up and become loyal Rat voters.

The problem that the rest of the world is having with the US lately is that the US is simply not taking the usual BS from abroad like we used to. Mexico, Europe, etc are used to making demands and badmouthing us at will and not suffering any consequences. Guess what, amigo? There is a new sheriff in town.
Frankly, I think that this proposal lets Mexico off lightly. I would demand:
1) An abolition of restrictions on american citizens from owning property in Mexico (currently, no american can own property there....they don't want "foreigners" to buy up Mexico).
2) Bilingual ballots in mexican elections (if its good for the goose....)
3) Allow americans to attend mexican universities at the same tuition as mexicans (like mexicans currently get in state tuition at california schools...even illegals).
4) Affirmative action...which will make sure that white and black americans have an equal chance at jobs in mexico as do native mexicans.
This is just for starters...I know that I'll think of a few more as time goes on.
The reason that they're pissed is that they are used to making demands, crying "racism" and having a bunch of guilty white liberal gringos giving them whatever they want.

It's simple. If either political party finally gets it (about immigrants sapping jobs and services) they will win elections.
