MR. PRESIDENT, I'M HEADED TO MEXICO

Dear President Bush:
I'm about to plan a little trip with my family and extended family, and I would like to ask you to assist me. I'm going to walk across the border from the U.S. into Mexico, and I need to make a few arrangements. I know you can help with this.
I plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports, immigration quotas and laws. I'm sure they handle those things the same way you do here.
So, would you mind telling your buddy, President Vicente Fox, that I'm on my way over? Please let him know that I will be expecting the following:
1. Free medical care for my entire family.
2. English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I might need, whether I use them or not.
3. All government forms need to be printed in English.
4. I want my kids to be taught by English-speaking teachers.
5. Schools need to include classes on American culture and history.
6. I want my kids to see the American flag flying on the top of the flag pole at their school with the Mexican flag flying lower down.
7. Please plan to feed my kids at school for both breakfast and lunch.
8. I will need a local Mexican driver's license so I can get easy access to government services.
9. I do not plan to have any car insurance, and I won't make any effort to learn local traffic laws.
10. In case one of the Mexican police officers does not get the memo from Pres. Fox to leave me alone, please be sure that all police officers speak English.
11. I plan to fly the U.S. flag from my house top, put flag decals on my car, and have a gigantic celebration on July 4th. I do not want any complaints or negative comments from the locals.
12. I would also like to have a nice job without paying any taxes, and don't enforce any labor laws or tax laws.
13. Please tell all the people in the country to be extremely nice and never say a critical word about me, or about the strain I might place on the economy.
I know this is an easy request because you already do all these things for all the people who come to the U.S. from Mexico. I am sure that Pres. Fox won't mind returning the favor if you ask him nicely.
However, if he gives you any trouble, just invite him to go quail hunting with your V.P.
Thank you so much for your kind help.
Sincerely,

That certainly puts the issue in perspective. And just shows how absolutely ridiculous their demands are.
It is my hope that after watching all this garbage [protests - especially the ones with all the Mexican country flags] and all the demands being made by the HUGE Mexican illegal protestors, that most American's eyes are now WIDE OPEN. [b]Open to what's been going on for the past generation or two and the voters are letting their representatives/senators KNOW how they feel while they're on Easter vacation - that they want this to be STOPPED. And hopefully enough want them ALL deported. Period.
Otherwise, imo, they're selling out America and everything she has always represented and still represents - to win their political offices.

Give me a break. You two can't even accept gays as being equal, let alone thinking Americans, as a majority, deserve the same treatment in Mexico.

You think equality is a God given right or something, Linda. You can't give it, but you expect to receive it. LOL

Actually Linda - I have quoted numerous polls which you seem to have ignored that show that the majority of americans do not agree with the House measure and that an overwhelming majority of americans believe that current immigrants should be given a path to citizenship.
Just in case you missed it that last time I pointed it out to you....
In the telephone survey of 1004 adults, conducted Wednesday and Thursday, 79% say they favor a guest worker program that would allow illegal immigrants to remain in the U.S. for a fixed period of time — the main provision of the bill proposed by Senators John McCain and Edward Kennedy that is now under fierce debate in Congress. Only 47% of those polled say they support the tougher measure backed by some House conservatives, deporting all illegal immigrants back to their home countries.

Linda speaks for the masses. She feels their deepest desires. She intuitively knows that even though they say there should be a guest worker program, they really mean the illegals should all be deported. How dare you think otherwise, fenix?
