Ok, take a look here..\n\nhttp://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2005/02/03/MNGM2B4KCE1.DTL\n\nAlot of the people who try to cross the border die trying. It's not like they are trying to walk across Ohio in June they are crossing a desert.\n\nMost of the folks that the border guards pick up are in great need of help. \n\nPutting soldiers down there will do 2 things.\n\nSave more lives of those that do try and cross.\n\nand \n\nPrevent more loss of life from failed crossing attempts.\n\nIf you want to come to America, bully for you. But do it the right way. Fill out the forms and wait like the rest of us who came over.\n\nRisking your life is not a great idea. If you are in need of asylum then it is something that can be done. But if you just wish to make a new life in the states. Do the right thing and it will work out for you.\n\nTroops are there as a safety net. Keeping people from hurting themselves, cutting down on smuggling and other practices that do America no great favor.

Yeah, I think that is extremely hypocritical. I mean, I would take it as a compliment if foreigners came here. I mean, if the Mexicans want to come, then let them. If Americans do not want foriegners coming then help make conditions better in their countries or stop visiting other peoples'.

given the wages in Mexico, probably even their army would end up crossing the border for higher pay.  This is all a  smoke screen.  Halliburton, Cheney's company has the border contract, so he has no motivation for this problem to go away.  Follow the money!

I agree in so much that these illegals will drag America down. They can't get their own country in order, so they are trying to come here to America and screw us all up. They need to protest their own government, not ours! The problem is that the Mexican government would not tolerate what they do here, and actually encourages them to come here due to the billions of US dollars they send back. Crazy as a Fox? You bet your a$$!

It's a wonderful spot.  Maybe we should leave map kiosks along the border showing the way to Toronto to pick up where Fox's map to the United States leaves off...\n\nBubblehead, Fox's not owning the U.S. sure doesn't stop HIM from selling it!

Heres ALL The Racism You Want\n\nA close, personal friendship with President George W. Bush has given Mexicos President Vicente Fox the opportunity to purposely allow (or even send) Millions of Criminals, Thugs, Anarchists, and Potential Terrorists to swarm over our southern border in breathtaking numbers. (Nearly half of all illegal aliens currently living in the U.S. came here since Bush became president in 2000.)  \n\n\n\nMexico's President Fox has been unrelenting in his brazen demands on the United States, starting with open borders even before he was elected. He has called for the border to be “a joining line.” His visits to the U.S. have been filled with endless requirements for Mexican citizens illegally in this country — free healthcare, taxpayer-subsidized in-state tuition for illegals at state colleges and universities, guestworker programs and amnesty for all. \n\n                                                             **************************\n\nMexican American Legal Defense Fund founder Mario Obledo stated, “California is going to be a Hispanic state. Anyone who doesn't like it should leave. Every constitutional office in California is going to be held by Hispanics in the next 20 years.  People who don't like such demographic changes “should go back to Europe.” (Incidentally,  Senor  Obledo was also the California Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare under Gov. Jerry Brown.) \n\nMario Obledo, California Coalition of Hispanic Organizations and California State Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare under Governor Jerry Brown, also awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Bill Clinton, "California is going to be a Hispanic state.  Anyone who doesn't like it should leave." \n\n\nObledo Is A Member Of "MEChA" And "LA RAZA"\n\n                                                 ********************\n\nThe newly "ELECTED"mayor, Antonio Villaraigosa, joined the lawbreakers and proclaimed "this bill in Congress is wrong". Señor Villaraigosa said "The only thing illegal is making 11 million illegal aliens felons." Yeah, he Actually said that. People should make no mistake about it: Villaraigosa was "ELECTED" by ILLEGALs VOTING, and HIS Allegiance, along with the rest of these "ELECTED" public officials in California of Mexican ancestry is to Mexico, not California or these United States of America. Villaraigosa has spent a lifetime opposing U.S. immigration laws.\n\nVillaraigosa is A Member Of  "MEChA"  and  " LA RAZA"\n\n                                               *********************\n\nMEChA and the La Raza movement teach that Colorado, California, Arizona, Texas, Utah, New Mexico, Oregon and parts of Washington State make up an area known as "AZTLAN" -- a fictional ancestral homeland of the Aztecs before Europeans arrived in North America. As such, it belongs to the followers of MEChA. These are all areas America should surrender to "La Raza" once enough immigrants, legal or illegal, enter to claim a majority, as in Los Angeles. The current borders of the United States will  be extinguished.\n\n \n\n The Council of La Raza succeeded in having itself added to congressional hearings by Republican House and Senate leaders. And an anonymous senator even gave the Council of La Raza an extra $4 million in earmarked taxpayer money, supposedly for "housing reform," while La Raza continues to lobby the Senate for virtual open borders and amnesty for illegal aliens. \n\n\n\n               http://www.humaneventsonline.com/article.php?id=13863\n\n                      \n\n"We have an aging white America ...

Probably not.  Our own congressman has forgotten which side of the border he represents.  He does more for the Mexican Government and their people than he does his own.

You make a good point.\n\nI actually don't like him for Both the war & illegal immigration.\n\nOne thing people forget it that the U.S. WHOLE-HEARTEDLY supports LEGAL immigration.  I do.  But don't come here illegally.  You will get no respect.

Mexico has been and still is a very poor nation with a minority holding most of the wealth and many living in poverty.....wholla...that is why we have so many of their citizens trying to get into the US. \nI seriously doubt that they have the troops or money to send help to Iraq or would their wealthy want  to use the money to support such and action.

It's not only his fault. Actually, he hasn't been that bad of a president. He was good intentioned since the beggining of his term. But, he could have a million of good proposals, but if congress doesn't agree, then there's nothing he can do. It's not only about the president, it's about all the the people in congress. If anything, haunt them down too. \n\nIf you know anything about Mexican politics, then you know that the PRI party was in power for 70 yrs. until we, the people, decided to change that and voted for Fox for our president with the PAN party. Mexico had never experienced that, it was a good change. We freed ourselves from the opretion of the PRI. Fox could not change all the wrong the PRI did for 70 yrs., but he started. \n\nAt least now, the people know that we can actually vote and elect the person we want to "rule" our country. As I said before, it's not only the president's work, congress has a lot to do with it.\n\nAnyway, Fox has only 1 week and 2 days left of his presidency. July 2nd will make history in our country, since now, the PRD leftist party is really strong, with AMLO as their candidate. It looks like he's going to win, let's see what he does.

Mexico is one of the my hypocritical countries i've ever seen.  They want to be able to march right into America, no questions asked.  Yet the countries to the south of them cannot march into Mexico.   Mexico has very strict immigration policies, and anyone caught sneaking into Mexico is in deep deep doo doo.   \n\nAmerica is dumb as he&#92;&#92; for not stopping the vast illegal flow of mexican peasants into the USA.   Our leaders have failed us miserably, and all should be censored, including past and present Presidents and Congress for being derilect in their duties.   \n\nVicente Fox is not friend of America.  He is a friend of Bush,  but all the rest of us fart in his general direction.   Americans support legal immigration, and despise the illegals.   We can pick our own lettuce, thank you.  Get the He&#92;&#92; out!

Well by parts. Fox has not yet intended to sign the law, because it needs the approval of the House of Representatives or Cámara de Diputados, since the initiative was approved only by now in the Senate. Anyhow, Fox as President has the Veto right. Second, i do not see what has that to do with Mexico becoming an American colonial possession, there is no logical connection between what you say and the law. Third, the law is ONLY for the people that need the drugs in small amounts IN A MEDICAL WAY, that means for example sick persons with cancer or people that became toxic dependants. You need a medical prescription to carry the drugs with you in order for it not to be a felony. \nOK. Now, i agree it is a stupid way to open the door to corruption, yes. It is an excellent way to take away the possibility for local police to fight drug dealers, yes. It is a stupid reform of the penal code and health law, yes. But what makes me really mad is stupid people giving opinions about things that they do not know and connecting a reform proposal that was approved by now only in the Senate, with the immigration issue and American colonialism. \nMy advise: Read the news and not only the headlines.

No.\n\nAlthough the fact that he doesn't kick Vincente Fox's ass about illegal immigration suggests that he is.
