"Mr. Bush, Tear Down That Wall!"...
In fact, there is no wall! And if there were, it wouldn't be like the Berlin Wall; one that separates citizens of somewhere from other citizens of the same somewhere.
Remember the "Mouse that Roared?"Well this is the "Fox that Whined!"
This is Vicente Fox, the President of Mexico ordering President Bush to stop any consideration of building a security fence between the US of A and Mexico to stop illegal immigration of Mexicans and possible terrorists from that country.
You want to read the most ridiculous and stupid quote of the century? OK: First, here's a quote to set up the real one.
"The disgraceful and shameful construction of walls, the increasing enforcement of security systems and increasing violation of human rights and labor rights will not protect the economy of the United States," he (Fox) said."
Now. here's the real thing:
Fox, speaking in Tamaulipas state across the border from Texas, said "such extreme security measures would 'violate immigrants' rights.'"
...mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...'I'm baack.'
Please excuse my absence from this post. I had to take a few moments to research our Constitution to find where illegal immigrants have 'rights.'
I guess someone else will have to take a look; I couldn't find the article or amendment that covers the rights of illegal aliens.
In all serialness, for the life of me, I can't remember where President Bush found this guy! Mexican President Fox, that is.
And what makes him think Fox is such a good friend to this country is also a mystery. W allows Fox to blow and whine about just about anything he wants to.
Fox feels all right about charging us three prices for Mexican oil but he thinks we are cruel and unusual for enforcing our immigration laws.
Just once I’d like to hear Bush say, “Vicente, just shut up and listen. If your people want to move to this country, tell them to make applications and wait their turns like everybody else! We need our welfare money for our unwed mothers!”
…’duh’…As if that’ll ever happen. Not much chance.
I remember a candidate for the presidency a few years back that made a fence between our two countries a part of his campaign rhetoric. He didn’t get the nomination but he must have made a good point because, here we are; right back there at that same place again! Thank you, Pat!
Later…

This is sad.
We have improved trade. We have relocated factories. Done so much.
And all we want is a good neighbor.
You know the sad thing is. If the mexican government would co-operate. The same vast number of people could be coming here for work legally.
Mexico has little respect for law. Especially ours.
The Fox that whined! That is rich.
Maybe the President of Mexico can get with the President of Iran and really write a speech for all history. They must be related.
You should send Chico to guard our border with Mexico.
