Every day, huge numbers of mexicans legally enter the US and spend a huge amount of money. Fron Brownsville to San Diego.
The MMP, in their effort to close the border, have intimidated the mexican buyers and they are not coming to spend money.
Many here want to close the entire border. The loss of cross-border commerce from such an action would be devastating to US businesses.
I'm just that old lady who loved those dawgs of yours!
As far as I know, those entering legally may still do so.
Ladies in California are getting mean while they witness their once-beautiful state turning into Mexico...
"spend a huge amount of money."
What does it benefit a country (or a party) to gain the whole world (or win an election) if it loses its soul.
I was listening to the hearing this morning about Election Reform with a committee headed by Jimmah Carter and Baker, Bush's bud---
anyway, they had all of the these bleeding-hearts on the panel and on the committee and they spent the whole time complaining about how hard Homeland Secuity wants to make it to vote, what with wanting Picture IDs w/citizenship requirements and all....
What really got me the most was whenever they talked about the necessity to have the ballots and voter registration forms in the "different languages" otherwise whole "cultures" would be disenfranchised.
I SAY---no one should be able to vote if the don't speak English/read English and have a picture ID!!
Is that the way ladies talk over there in California? Thank God I've been in the South my whole life. I'd be afraid to date a gal with that kinda fire!
We are red state girls in a blue state, we gotta get tough!

Many here want to close the border to illegal immigration, not to commerce between Mexico and the United States. Mexican citizens would still be able to cross the border at official border checkpoints to do their shopping at American businesses.
A government that loses the will to enforce its own laws soon becomes no government at all...
I'm sure it doesn't bother you because it is other peoples money.
I would offer an estimated $41 billion annual cost to taxpayers IS NOT merely someone else's money.

Back at you...
A country with no border loses its sovereignty.
