You've got to hand it to Vicente Fox, President of Mexico. In one stroke he put the immigration issue into perspective. Complaining about the development of a fence to keep illegal Mexicans out of the United States and U.S. efforts to catch and deport those who get through he highlighted Mexico's own effort to prevent illegal aliens from Central America from getting into Mexico.
He went even further than that; stating that Mexicans in the United States will do work that not even Blacks will do. I knew it was just a matter of time before the race-baiting shakedown artisists like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton got into the act. Well here it is:
My Way News: "After a scolding from north of the border, President Vicente Fox said he regretted any hurt feelings over a comment he made about blacks in the United States. But many Mexicans insist Americans overreacted.
...
At first the Mexican president refused, saying his remark had been misinterpreted. But on Monday, after a weekend of mounting criticism, he seemed eager to make amends.
In telephone conversations with Jackson and Sharpton, Fox said he "regretted any hurt feelings" and has great respect "for the African-American community in the United States," according to a statement from his administration.
He also invited the two leaders to Mexico for talks aimed at improving the sometimes tense relationship between blacks and Hispanics in the United States.
What usually happens after one of these encounters is that friends of Jesse suddenly receive sweetheart business deals and contracts from the offending party to demonstrate their commitment to racial equality. I'm not sure how this would work in the case of Mexico, but Jesse's pretty creative when it comes to this kind of operation, so time will tell. On the other hand, Mexicans know a thing or two about corruption, where do you think all that oil wealth disappeared to? Did it go to help the poor that crawl over our border? NOT!
Mexican Voting Standards: Democrats Would Protest
As former Mayor of San Diego, Californina, Roger Hedgecock, is well aware of the problem of illegal immigration from Mexico. He points out that in Mexico, voters are required to show photo identification with a fingerprint in order to vote. There are numerous stories in this country about Democrats objecting to ANY form of identification required for voting (see below and more here).
The identification problem is heating up as illegal immigrants recently protested plans to tighten requirements for driver's licenses, the basic form of identification in most states.
Adopting the Mexican Standard is the answer to our immigration, identification and voter fraud problems. The next Presidents Bush and Fox meet, the conversation might go something like this:
President Bush: "Hey amigo, nice to see you again. I'm really impressed with the reforms you've initiated in Mexico regarding immigration and we've decided to adopt many of your proven strategies for use in the United States. So we're going to build a fence just like you did along the border with Guatemala, and we're going to use the army to help secure it. We're also going to follow your lead and have a massive roundup of illegals and return them to their country of origin. And your idea to require a photo I.D. with a fingerprint for voters would really solve alot of the problems here... I can't thank you enough for the great work you've done in this field."
President Fox: "But, but, but, but........"
President Bush: Oh, sorry you had to get the treatment from Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton... now you know what I have to put up with."
