Lou Dobbs Tonight
Wednesday August 20, 2008

Tonight, how close are John McCain and Barack Obama to naming
their vice presidential picks? We’ll have all the details.
Plus:

* Elections were once run by local election officials who were
accountable to the public. Now tabulation and running of
elections has been “outsourced’ to the electronic voting
machine companies. A report by VotersUnite documents many case
studies of local officials being supplanted by and denied
access to information by voting machine workers.

* Illegal alien Francisco Pantaleon suffered a brain hemorrhage
and is in a coma at the University of Illinois. Because he is
poor and uninsured and unable to pay, the hospital has been
absorbing all costs. Plans are now being made to move Pantaleon
home to Mexico, at the hospital’s expense. Protestors are
accusing the hospital of discriminating against Mexicans.
* Lobbyists and corporate donors know that the party
conventions are a big opportunity for influence peddling and
behind-the-scenes favors. Thanks to loopholes in federal
election laws, those corporate fat cats are able to wield more
than $100 million in campaign cash heading into the
conventions.

* Universities and alumni associations are increasingly selling
out their students to credit card companies eager for new young
customers. Schools are selling students’ personal information
for profit. This growing alliance between financial and
academic institutions is disturbing. A college degree for the
average graduate already comes at a hefty price and most often
with substantial debt. Now, universities are gaining
financially while encouraging students to spend now and pay
later using plastic.

* Illegal alien Francisco Pantaleon suffered a brain hemorrhage
and is in a coma at the University of Illinois. Because he is
poor and uninsured and unable to pay, the hospital has been
absorbing all costs. Plans are now being made to move Pantaleon
home to Mexico, at the hospital’s expense. Protestors are

In his state of the union address to the Mexican nation, Calderon established his imperialistic imperatives: "I have said that Mexico does not stop at its border, that wherever there is a Mexican, there is Mexico. And, for this reason, the government action on behalf of our countrymen is guided by principles, for the defense and protection of their rights."

President Calderon said "wherever there is a Mexican there is Mexico".
Therefore the Mexican government is responsible for the hospital bills and the Mexican consulate should make arrangements and foot the bill for the post-emergency care of Mr. Pantaleon.

Hmm... how ironic that mexico demands to be involved when one of their scum bag illegals rapes and murders an American citizen - yet they are no where to be found when one of their citizens is ill and needs treatment!

The best they can do is demand the US pick up the tab, while making claims that we are discriminating against mexicans.

I'm really, really, REALLY getting tired of these people and their parasitic mentality...
