Obama Cannot Take a Stand for USA
Yesterday Mexican President Caulderon criticized the Arizona illegal immigration law. This from a man whose country does nothing to stop illegals from leaving Mexico. If caught illegally in Mexico you face up to two years in jail. If caught a second time you go to jail for up to 10 years. What a hypocrite.
THEN our President gets up and says that the AZ has the potential to discriminate without a hint of Mexico doing something about their own people pouring into our country.
Thanks for having our backs, Mr. President!
On his worst day he's disgusted with America, on his best day he's embarrassed of us.

Lot's of sound bites here that will be replayed in 2012.
I can only imagine that he has such great confidence in the "mainstream media" doing the job for him in the next general election that he isn't afraid to say exactly what he thinks now.
Did you notice how eager GE (the parent company of NBC News and MSNBC) were to help bail out Obama's friends at the failed Shorebank of Chicago?

Yes, I had read about that. When Obama was campaigning we posted so much information about him and his past. I have never seen anyone, elected in office, that has such a questionable past and connections that are being excused and covered up.
He has so much arrogancy and I can only contribute that to the "backing" behind him. At first I wondered if it was just his "leftist" and "socialist" leanings, but I see it is both - his ideology and his backing. Some strong stuff going on here. America is not in a safe place with him in power. The worst I have ever seen, because it's an "in your face" type of Administration - Chicago style.

I don't know what Mexico can or should do to physically stop people from migrating. It's not like the US has ever asked them to build a Berlin War to keep their dissatisfied masses under their own boot heels.
One thing Calderon could do, however, is to work to undo the centuries old colonial economic system that has kept Mexican society so stratified. This would open up more opportunities for people at "home" in Mexico and create a market for US exports.
Instead, we just have this highly stratified and elitist culture that dumps their unwanted "surplus population" of largely Mestizos off on their neighbor. And then, after having practiced extreme forms of racism in Mexico, the elites come here to complain about "US racism." Hypocrites.

Re: Obama Cannot Take a Stand for USA
Perhaps we should do as Mexico does. Arrest them, and second offense 10 years in jail. Free labor. No money going back to Mexico.

Well, we know they aren't going to do anything about it, but if they were fair and good neighbors they would patrol their border as tightly as they do in the south where they border other Latin American countries.

I don't know about this "Mestizo" thing and racism in Mexico. Tell me about it, I'm interested.
Yes, the Mexican president and his government are being very hypocritical. But what do we expect, they are politicians after all.
