Do not worry, amigos, Bush does what I tell him!
NewsMax.com: Inside Cover Story — What is wrong with this picture?
Mexico’s President Vicente Fox is preparing to respond militarily to a group of U.S volunteers who plan to patrol the U.S.-Mexican border starting tomorrow, positioning more than a thousand troops nearby, according to an Arizona TV station.
“The Mexican military is on standby,” reports NBC’s Tucson affiliate KVOA. “One unit has about a thousand soldiers. They’re located just across the border.”

Hopefully that will be an excuse to really patrol our borders.
From what I understand of history, this is similar to what began the Mexican- American War. The U.S. positioned troops just across the Mexican border and practically dared the Mexicans to take a shot at them. Eventually someone did and the war began – it’s what moved the Texas border and got the U.S. California… This web page gives a brief history – http://www.historyguy.com/Mexican-American_War.html
Hmmm…. maybe THAT will stop the flood of ILLEGAL immigrants crossing the border…..
“Last week President Fox warned at a Mexico City press conference:
‘We totally reject the idea of these migrant-hunting groups. We will use the law, international law and even U.S. law to make sure these types of groups, which are a minority, will not have any opportunity to progress.'”
This is surreal. But Americans have no will. No surprises here.
And the Minutemen aren’t “hunting” anyone. When they see someone crossing the border, they call immigration officials who come to claim them. They caught close to 20 of them on their first day. They sent one for medical treatment before returning him to Mexico.
Vincente Fox should be more concerned about losing his own taxpayers to another system. . .
Insert your own Mexican Army joke here.
Fox’s statements are mere bluster. The troops aren’t going to cross the border, and they have every right to be deployed on their side.
The MinuteMan group has drawn attention to itself, and so it should expect to have the law enforced with regard to its activities. Hopefully, the Border Patrol will also respond to their illegal immigrant sightings.
Of course, any illegals would be foolish to attempt to cross right now. That’s the word that should be circulated.
Yup, it is only fun until someone loses an eye.
Putting aside the vigilantes, why on earth are there so few Border Patrol Agents along the this stretch.
Does Bush want to keep great relations with Mexico, or does he want to maintain s large pool of cheap labor for his business cronies.
I estimate that for every trip Bush makes around the country selling his Social Security sham, we could hire and outfit 5 to 10 Border Patrol Agents. For every Right Wing columnist Health and Human Servises puts on the payroll, we could have hired 6 or 7 Agents. For every useless Commision telling us what we already knew about Intellegence failures, we could hire at least 50 Agents.
What ever the reason, the result is not good for America.
It has been rumored that it was ALL a joke
“Vincente Fox should be more concerned about losing his own taxpayers to another system. . .” It’s clear that the Mexican government aids and abets illegal immigration in order to dump their poor on the United States – so they probably accrue more in savings than they lose in tax revenue. If they were concerned with losing people why do their troops not deter migrants? Why do they have an entire organization called Grupo Beta whose sole purpose is to aid illegal immigrants? The United States is a sovereign nation, not a welfare state; she has the right to control the flow of peoples across her border.
If Mexican President Fox is intent on us supporting his poor, we might as well take over the whole Damn Mexican country, dump Foxes ass in a hole, then make them pay taxes ect. just like we have to . Hell half our jobs are going there now, just lost mine to the Mexicans, it’s got to stop somewhere. Eventually we should get our moneys worth, right now they are just costing us and its a liablity. We would put a stop to the drug crap there also if our military kicks some cartel ass for a while. We could even use a little of that mexican oil too.It would be easier to patrol Mexico ‘s southern side, its much smaller. Hell put up a concrete wall across it !
Dosent our constitution guarentee us the right to have a armed milita?
you guys are a bunch of idiots. noone is american we all came from different countries in search of a better life and now we deny that same dream to people who need it. People who built our country. people who call the United States of America Home just like you and me. All of you SUCK. I hope the mexicans kick your ass and take all the jobs that your lazy butts don’t want. why don’t we send the Chinese or british or all the other people who came from another country back where they came from ? Are you going to build a wall all the way around the country. you all need to go back to kindergarten so you can learn how to SHARE. who said we have the right to tell anybody they can’t be here?
And what are you going to do about all the interracial families? Are you going to seperate children and parents? This is going to start another war. You say that the hispanic people are criminals and thugs but in my neighborhood it is the Black and white trash that always has the police called not the hispanic people. you all need to grow up.
What ignorance you have. Another lame excuse, play the race card. The U.S. was not built on the idea of immigration. It was built by…by immigrants who strived to build a better nation. Today, illegal immigration does not give to the better this country. It takes much more away. In the beggining of the 19th century, this country did not have any social support programs like welfare. People who came to this country were left in segregated, poverish conditions, where they became the desolute. They plundered and pillaged amongst their uneducated and sickly children. With social reform and welfare that has changed. Now, every person who comes to this country affects this nation. Our healthcare and education systems and social and economic infrastructure as a whole. Mexico could literally drown this nation with their countrymen. And when will we hold them responsible for their own third world, corrupt government. It’s beyond me as to why we allow Mexico to continually violate our home and people.
And yes we do need a wall around this country. A very big wall with armed guards. Just ask Mexico how they protect their sourthern border.
Well here is my two cents,
I feel that illeagle immigration is the bigest threat to our society today.
It should be the primary concern of the US government especially with antiterrism. I live in a largely Hispanic community here in the USA Salem Oregon. And many of my friends and associates are hispanic.
So please do not think I have ill will for hispanics. The following is what gets my goat. A few of my hispanic friends have several and I do mean serveral ssn# all different with ID cards to go with them.
One of these friends is single yet he poses as his sisters husband she has three kids. They draw welfare here in oregon. He also holds down a full time job in a service station under another name and so does she. He also has another name he uses and id for drawing welfare with his white wife and there two kids.
I am sure hispanics are not by any means the only ones doing this. But the point is it is working that system like this that is going to tear us down. Not to mention being the slave to the coyoto’s for 2500 to get here. Plus multiple ID costs.
That is what the US needs to concentrate on stopping.
Is the abuse of the system by all. And to make sure all are who they say they are.
Thats my two cents!
