That's different all right. I found an article that said this town adopted Spanish as its' language and declared a sanctuary while Bush was Governor of Texas?

loserville,

You are absolutely right! What was the Texas National Guard doing back when George was Governor?

Too bad, Ann Richards didn't win a second term. We might not be in this mess right now if she had. Maybe she can pull some strings for us, with the big man upstairs, considering she was just elected to a higher position than GW.

GCF, Look up Laredo, El Paso, Brownsville... Any border city is going to look bad. Also, school children from Mexico cross the border every day and attend our schools. Foolishness. Mexican school children do the same thing on the southern border of Mexico and Belize? I don't know if they do the same thing in Guatemala. However, I have a first hand account about Belize.

Mexico is not a good neighbor.
