Vicente is at it again
Early this week, the president of Mexico, Vicente Fox, was whining about how the planned 700 mile wall was an insult to Mexico and was like the "Berlin Wall."
Let's tackle the latter point first. The Berlin Wall was built by the communist government of East Germany under the direction of the Soviet Union so that people from behind the Iron Curtain could not escape. Our wall is not designed to keep our people from escaping!
If he is insulted by the policy, why does he have a simliar anti-illegal immigration policy on his own southern border? Why hasn't the government of Mexico done a better job at addressing the economic problems of the country that encourages its citizens to leave?
If anyone should be insulted, it's us. But do you see the goofy left defending the honor of the U.S.? No! In California, the loony left is more interested in the fact that Governor Schwarzenegger (yesterday) stated that he thought too many immigrants coming from Mexico did not have a desire or plan to assimilate like he did when he came from Austria.
Do you really want Angelides and Pelosi in positions of power?
