Everybody knows that illegals sends billions of U.S. dollars back to Mexico every year. They are President Fox's biggest income right now. It seems that Bush and Fox plans on running this part of the world.

I remember hearing about that. It's too bad they didn't execute them all a long time ago. As for Bush, I don't understand whats wrong with him. I've been asking for years why is he so bent on pleasing President Fox and the Mexican government at the expense of these two young girls and their families. Maybe he's thinking about running for president in Mexico after 2008 or maybe he's got a deal worked out with Mexico to hide him, after they go after him for war crimes. Anyway, I'm still distrustful after he tried to allow the port deal to the Saudis. Keep e'm coming girl. I don't care what they say, your making strong points.

Bush should just ignore Fox. Mexico has tougher immigration laws than the US, but they call us Draconian if we want to reciprocate. Fox is a hypocrite. Like  someone else said, it is OUR SIDE OF THE BORDER, and OUR TROOPS. Emigration also frees Mexico from actually having to FIX THEIR PROBLEMS.

3 words, 'pro hispanic lobbyists'. That's why. And yes, they've got lots of money, AND the sympathy vote, AND lots of new prospective voters that have only been in the country for a week or two and are doing their level best to remain invisibile. The next 2 years will determine whether we retain our independence from mexico, or not. Bush is a sellout on this one....

I'd guess these retirees that are pumping real dollars into Mexico are legally residing in Mexico.

First of all, I don't think the govt. will pay any monies to its citizens, due to the welfare issue......Trust me, they will find other ways to spend that saved monies.....But you make a great point, MANY MANY Americans move retire to Mexico every year, due to the lower cost of living....I find that hypocritical.....I mean its bad when illegals come here for a better life, but its ok when Americans retire overthere because of the lower cost of living....

Corporations.  Which donate large amounts of campaign cash to Bush and his politicos.  They make decisions that bring them the most profit.  So Bush and his inner circle are actually benefiting from Bush's reluctance to send away the illegals.  Surprise, surprise.

This goes to show just how manipulative Vincente Fox really is.  If he was truly concerned about his people being harmed because they will find alternate and more dangerous routes, in order to illegally enter the US, he would take steps to prevent them from getting to the border.  The fact is, Fox doesn't want to loose the approximately $10 billion each year the mexicans are sending home.  This is probably the second largest means of revenue for the mexican economy.\n\nJudge Judy would first ask for a discount on her next mexican vacation, before she ruled on such a matter.

Yes, consider how much water Mexico owes, which we mostly wrote off. That amount of water mostly pays them back, plus factor in the assistance we give to THEIR citizens. Add the welfare, food stamps, cost of each childs education (20 to 30 grand each year) and everything else these immigrants cause us to incur. I think that figure might quickly deflate to zero and then negatives (they owe us in that case).

By acting as if he is concerned for the rights of Mexican immigrants to the U.S., he is encouraging more illegal immigration, which is what he wants to do.  The Mexican government is an open, festering sore of corruption.  They cannot handle the economic problems of their people, so they encourage them to come to the U.S.  This alleviates unemployment problems in Mexico, and also stimulates the Mexican economy because many of these illegal Mexicans send dollars back to their families.  American businessmen also encourage these illegals to come because they can increase their profits tremendously by hiring them.  The American government, which has always looked out for the interests of the business elite, encourages this illegal immigration also by propagating lies, such as illegals take jobs Americans don't want, by proposing things like a guest worker program, which is just a way to legalize illegal immigration to ensure a steady supply of cheap labor for American corporations.  This steady supply of cheap labor not only robs jobs from Americans, it also has the effect of keeping wages down in other jobs, which suits the business elite just fine.  Fox knows what he's doing and so does Bush.  They are in fact buddies, doing a political dance, trying to play everybody for fools.  Each is looking out for the interests of the business elite in his country.  In fact, the presence of American corporations has increased in Mexico since Fox took over.  Does the average American benefit from that?  Of course not.  But it does make a few people very very wealthy.  The rest of us have to stand by and watch as our standard of living goes down, our jobs are outsourced to foreign countries and the few jobs that remain here are taken over by illegals.  What these illegals need to do is take all that energy and effort they spend coming over here and use it to stay in their country and overthrow their corrupt government.

Yes, and not just in Mexico - the countries of Central America all consider their citizens who are illegally in the US working and sending money home to be heroes, too.

There should be no exceptions. Period. I say round up the ones who are here and ship them back to where they came from. They are a drain on our economy. I see them all the time sending most of their paycheck back to their families in Mexico. They live 20 or so to a house, so it's not like they're helping the real estate market. They're digging through dumpsters behind the grocery store adn the thrift store, looking for usable food and clothes. They're riding bicycles. Get rid of them and close the borders.

Actually Fox is laughing at the US because all the undocumented workers who send that $20 billion in US dollars is helping to keep a large percentage of  the population fed and housed.  Plus he has used NAFTA to his advantage to help create jobs in Mexico in addition to creating a large number of jobs through joint government/private industry initiatives.  And all this investment in industry and education is possible because the government doesn't have to support all of those families that are being lost in the transition from an agricultural to an industrial society.\n\nSo instead of creating a nation of people dependant on welfare programs he's allowing them to come to the US and work for their money.  Thats why he and his cronies are laughing, because their economy is $20 billion richer, all because you don't want to cut your own grass or pay anyone a decent wage to do it for you.
