Laura Bush confident in Mexico-U.S. immigration agreement
EFE - 9/26/2002
U.S. First Lady Laura Bush said she was convinced an immigration agreement could be reached between Mexico and the United States, because their leaders want it.
Mrs. Bush, who participated in the 11th Conference of the Wives of Heads of State and Government in Mexico City on Wednesday, said, "I do see a solution to this problem."
In statements to the Mexican press made in Washington and published Wednesday in Reforma daily, Laura Bush explained she and her husband had lived in Texas for many years and have a special sensitivity for the problems of the U.S. Hispanic community.
"There are so many stories about immigrants and the children of immigrants in the United States. Our whole country is made up of immigrants who were able to overcome poverty and obtain good jobs. There are many examples in my husband's administration," the first lady noted.
Mrs. Bush acknowledged that the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks had set back the agenda between Mexico and the United States, but insisted that Presidents Bush and Fox "are going to meet again to try to revitalize and refocus the issue of immigration."
The first lady said she felt "a special bond with Mexico" and recalled the couple had spent their honeymoon in Mexico City and the Caribbean resort of Cozumel. The first lady is expected to focus on childhood poverty as she participates in this summit.
But given what the rat-dog is like, I'd probably feel the same way even if there was zero mexican immigration. Those dogs are eeeeeeevil!
That's interesting. I've always wondered why the Targets here are okay places to shop, the aisles are clean and orderly, there's not a lot of pushing and shoving but the prices aren't bad. The Walmarts on the other hand are usually trashed with many items all over the floors.
What was troubling about this was that Torres went on an on spouting one lie after another. He claimed that illegals pay more taxes than they get back in services. This is a bald faced lie. He wasn't called on it. Jerks like Torres seem to think that American sovereignty is for sale, or is somehow negotiable between the government and a bunch of invaders, and that illegal aliens have paid and deserve to be rewarded. That SOB ought to be fired by morning. Colorado taxpayers are paying that seditionist to carry on his "Chicano studies" crap. It's outrageous. What does he teach besides revolution? How to steal hubcaps? Disgusting.
Even though the law requires you pay $5.15 an hour?
Seriously though when they make illegals legal then they must be paid minimum wage and their employers will then find new illegals to work. It happened in a very massive level in the area I live in, many of those legalized in the 80's have not yet learned English, the unemployment rate is very high and they no longer have to work for low wages but can live off government programs instead ---and the costs are staggering to us taxpayers ---many are leaving.
ROTFL!!
I don't either and I don't even distinguish between legal and illegal immigrants much because there are some illegals I can respect because they only intend to work a few years and would like to return home and some illegals aren't using free health care or schools (some actually left families behind in Mexico and send money home) but many of the legals you see around here will not likely ever work unless they absolutely must. Also many legals are the elderly being brought in by their now legal children so they can enjoy a life on SSI and Medicaid here, they're not coming to work or be productive or pay any taxes, they are coming strictly to use our system. People would be amazed at how fraudulent the "sponsor" program of immigrants is.
Bush has passed more left wing, anti-constitutional legislation in two years than Clinton got through in eight years. Bush has signed CFR. He supports an amnesty, the EU, the UN. He signed one of the largest education bills in the nation's history. Bush backtracked on stem cell research. He appointed two homosexuals to his cabinet. Bush continues to push for more free-trade, the latest being that of Columbia, Peru and the Andean region of South America. Bush signed the Patriot Act, and he wants a Homeland Security Bill that will give him, or any future president, the ability to increase the size and scope of the federal government, indefinitely, without the consent of congress. Knowing that Christians, Constitutionalists, and Defenders of the 2nd Amendment have been identified as "terrorists", who's to say that this new Homeland Security won't go after American citizens. Bush has actually backtracked on the ICC. Do you really think that after this one year is over that Americans will be exempt. People also like to talk of Bush's stance on Kyoto and the UN, but take a look at the proposed environmental legislation and pro-UN speak that has been wrapped up in the War on Terror legislation:
Moreover, in some places, the text mostly concedes the arguments of the left, especially the green left. One might consider, as a further f'rinstance, the discussion of climate change. The document doesn't mention the Kyoto Treaty by name, but it might just as well: Economic growth should be accompanied by global efforts to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations associated with this growth, containing them at a level that prevents dangerous human interference with the global climate. Our overall objective is to reduce America's greenhouse gas emissions relative to the size of our economy, cutting such emissions per unit of economic activity by 18 percent over the next 10 years, by the year 2012. Our strategies for attaining this goal will be to:
remain committed to the basic U.N. Framework Convention for international cooperation;
obtain agreements with key industries to cut emissions of some of the most potent greenhouse gases and give transferable credits to companies that can show real cuts;
develop improved standards for measuring and registering emission reductions.
We are guided by the conviction that no nation can build a safer, better world alone. Alliances and multilateral institutions can multiply the strength of freedom-loving nations. The United States is committed to lasting institutions like the United Nations, the World Trade Organization, the Organization of American States, and NATO as well as other long-standing alliances.
Come on, what do all of these things reveal?
Now, as to illegals spreading Hepatitis and other diseases, you are quite correct. More reason for them not to be anywhere near our food processing plants.

I'm gladd you asked. Here is the answer.
Get yourself a map of Mexico. You'll notice the roads and cities are in the southern third where there is water and low land. Much of Mexico is barely inhabitable barren wasteland. There is little industry and a teeming overpopulation growing by 2% per year even with massive migration out of the country. Fox needs to get rid of nearly 3,000,000 people per year to maintain the present state of chaos and poverty. They need to be moved North into the U. S. He also needs the industry in the state of California and similar places to furnish necessary jobs. Thus he needs to flood those areas with people and annex those areas. Without Aztlan Fox and Mexico are a cooked goose. Bush's kook agenda will facilitate Fox's plan.
He doesn't want ALL of them to come here (not the European types), but Mexico is a very racist country, their elites tend to be quite blond and the elites want the impovered Indians and Mestizos out or they fear they'll demand some changes and bring down their oligarchy which is how they obtain their vast wealth.
