How soon will the United States of America surrender to Mexico?

At least twice each week I read the rant of another angry American who declares that Bush is an idiot, but if they're just figuring that out now, they're throwing stones from a glass house. Of course he's an idiot. They needed an idiot. If the man displayed any signs of intelligence, evil actions couldn't be  passed off as "failures" or "bungling." If the president were intelligent and scholarly, people would question why he's completely incompetent, \nbut because he's an obvious buffoon, many people accept that as the reason everything's \ngoing horribly wrong. It's also a lot less distressing to believe that your government is incompetent rather than know that they're evil, and most people will cling to that comfort.\n\n               The real problem is that if people blame Bush's idiocy for our troubles, they probably also think that the solution would be to get him out of office, but if they think we'll be saved by "Hillary in '08," or any other politician, they're even slower than Bush. \n\nRegardless of who's occupying the White House, there has never been an idiot running this country. There's  too much power and money at stake for an idiot to gain control of it. If the president is an idiot,  he's only in the White House because someone else has firm control over him. Someone somewhere has a lot more control over the fate of this nation than our "president" does. \n\n               Of course this reasoning begs the question "if this country isn't being run by an idiot, \nwhy is everything going so horribly wrong?" The answer is that it's going wrong by design. \nThe questioner makes the  assumption that this country is being run by people who are acting in the interest of Americans, but nothing can be further from the truth. Instead of accusing Bush of doing a lousy job, or being a lousy president, please try to think in terms of Bush's "boss" being someone other than the American people, and his "job" as being to grab as \nmuch cash as he can for himself and his friends before driving this country into the ground. If you look at his presidency in that light, you can instantly see that he's doing a marvelous job, and he's the best "president" an enemy nation could ever hope to see in the White House.The fact of the matter is that America as we know it (or knew it) is being systematically destroyed, and the politicians from both political parties are making this possible.\n\n             Freedom and justice are fading memories, the U.S. Constitution is "just a goddamn piece of paper," and the election process has been undermined. The jobs have been shipped overseas, the economy is hopeless, the environment is being raped, the Army is "broken," the infrastructure is crumbling, our borders are being dissolved, and every dollar or gold nugget that was subject to being looted, is already gone. With the entire nation and its population deep in debt, crashing the economy is a simple matter of raising interest rates, which will allow the bankers to once again scoop up all mortgaged property, and force its inhabitants out into the street. Instead of calling it illegal immigration, we should be calling it a foreign invasion, because the consequences of this invasion are as terminal to our freedoms and to our way of life as any act of terrorism ever perpetrated against us! The United States is being invaded - FOREIGN INVADERS.  \n\n             The American people need to understand that the United States is under attack! \nNo, not by Iraq or Iran, but by Mexico! Yes, Martha, you had better believe it. \nThe Mexican government is deliberately and systematically working to destabilize and undermine the very fabric and framework of American society. \n             And President George W. Bush and Senators John McCain and Ted Kennedy (among others) ar

The United States has already taken half of Mexico by force, during the Mexican-American War. Check Wikipedia for more info on that conflict. \n\nThis seems like a question motivated by frustration, but I think those are the questions most in need of reply. The U.S. will not invade Mexico because it is politically, economically, and militarily unfeasible. Politically, the U.S. will not invade another democracy. Despite its many problems, Mexico is a democracy, and one that had cleaner elections in 2000 than the U.S. Check Freedom House for confirmation on this. Economically and militarily, the U.S. is simply stretched too thin as it is. In the end, however, the political ramifications would just be too high.

The US will laugh its ass off as Mexico collapses into socialism.

Hey thewanderer862004.  I think you need to read up on American history.  The US did attack and capture Mexico City, but we gave it back because it was 2 weeks after the end of the Mexican-American war in 1848.\n\nHowever, The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, signed on February 2, 1848, ended the war and gave the U.S control of Texas, California, Nevada, Utah, and parts of Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, and Wyoming.

The United States should tell Mexico what to go do with itself and deport all of the illegal Mexican invaders back to Mexico.

It's an item now because it is getting worse. You may not be aware that Mexican Army units make about 100 illegal incursions into the United States every year, sometimes to escort drug runners into the US.  This is a huge problem and to speak out against it would undermine the Administration's irrational and inexplicable infatuation with Vicente Fox's corrupt regime and that crap piece of garbage called NAFTA.  The Mexicans are a huge problem that is getting bigger and at one point or another are going to have to be confronted point blank whether the Administration wants to or not.  the very sovereignty of the United States is at risk, and the Federal government by refusing to properly address the issue is defaulting on its obligation to defend the country.\n\nYou will be hearing more and more about this and I would  not be overly surprised if at some point in the near future open warfare breaks out between the US and Mexico.\n\nITEM:\nMexican Army Invades U.S. \nPhil Brennan, NewsMax.com\nWednesday, March 12, 2003 \nIt’s the war nobody wants to talk about: well-armed Mexican soldiers storming across America’s southern border, sometimes with guns blazing.\n“We are in state of war,” Edward Nelson, chairman of U.S. Border Control, told Soldier of Fortune magazine. “And we are fighting enemies who have brought the battle to our shores. If ever there was a time for the United States to put troops on the border, it is now.”\n\nA blockbuster exposé in the magazine's March issue notes that over the past five years, there have been 120 documented incidents of Mexican military/police incursions, sometimes resulting in the arrest of Mexican army personnel on U.S. soil by Border Patrol agents.

It's funny how people say, if it happens it happens.  BS!  Things change, and the USA won't be the way it is today forever.  We will need from those countries who's people we don't want.  Hey, I know that when we get nuked, and if I survive, I'm running straight for Mexico!  Hopefully they'll accept me.

It's the date noted that Mexico declared it's independence from Spain... which technically occurred on September 15, 1810 but took the Mexican soldiers another 11 years to kick out the Spanish, French and English troops occupying Mexico.\n\nInterestingly enough, the major force of opposition was actually the French with the English and Spaniards quickly making deals and leaving.

I hope so.  It is time to liberate the Mexicans from the Junta that runs their nation.  Think of the benefits we would enjoy with the oil reserves of Mexico....plus it would stabalize democracy in a region that is dominated by socialist thugs and autocrats.\n\nSound familiar.

It will happen in the next race. Mexicans will run this country it is now ours and nothing anybody can do about it

Doubt it.  We'll have to "put on a show of force" with Iran before long, and all the little illegal Mexicans can carry on with whatever the hell they were doing.

I've speculated on this myself.  Once upon a time we purchased new territory peacefully: Florida, Louisiana, Gadsden purchase; I'm sure we could probably afford to buy Mexico and end all of the corruption that keeps it a poor country compared to the US.

I don't think that the Mexicans would agree. Mind you, there is always the option to invade it like the US normally does with other countries, but then again Mexico doesn't really have a lot of resources that the USA is interested in.
