In Mexico Calderon (sp?) has been a great President.
Has been fighting the narcotics and corruption.
Lots of law officials have been assassinated over going after drug lords and other criminals.

Mexico sucks, but we can hardly MAKE them do anything, just like we can’t make Pakistan let us in to get Bin Laden or other terrorists.

Mexico and the U.S. conduct a lot of trade. We purchase a lot of their oil. And we take a lot of guff.

Mexico is not in the driver’s seat. We are. Our GNP is probably fifty times what Mexico’s is. Mexico talks a big game, but it’s not going to ignore the wishes of the U.S., if we actually showed some backbone.

If we slam that border shut and shut off the services, they’re in for a real hard time.

We need to demand they open up the middle class and employ the poor.

It’s time to see Mexico clean up it’s act, and it’s a major embarassment to watch our team act as if Mexico called the shots for us. That just insulting.
