okay, someone answer a few questions.....

1) why did the pretender in charge, on his news conference just state the border is secure and they have a high tech fence.....huh ?

2) why did the pretender in charge just commit to CIR, against the will of the people ?


3) 1.3 billion, this is what we give mexico each year for drug abatement...what am I actually getting from my portion ?

4) the prez just stated his administration is looking carefully at the Arizona law, yet his people have stated on numerous interviews they havent read it....did thye just look at it and go, yep, its words on paper ?

5) why is this puke of a president, when addressing the american people doing it in spanish, I know he speaks english, he graduated schools here...this is an insult

6) they covered border topics, like security and MIGRATION....ummm, doesnt that mean illegal immigration ?

7) Calderon, in reference to the migration ( again, illegal aliens) issue that WE need to make sure they are respectful.....does the same go for when I commit a crime in Mexico ?

Calderon stated they will reject criminalizing migration, isnt there a border between us that our own country gets to decide whats a crime ?

9) Isnt illegal immigration in Mexico criminalized ?

10 ) Wow...is it just a coincidence that the first reporter question is from a Latina who immediately jumped on how the Arizona law is discriminatory ?

11) Obamas tie, now, I am a heterosexual male, and even I can see it is pretty awful , doesnt he have people to dress him ?

12)The pretender in chief says we need to work with mexico to stop the illegal migration, how does he expect that when Mexicos government helps them get here ?

13 ) Obama states that those here illegally need to pay a fine, pay back taxes and go to the back of the line....where are illegals going to get the money to pay back taxes and a fine, unless the fine is a joke ?

14) anyone notice that he blamed the republicans that he cant get enough votes for amnesty ?

15) the next question is again on migratory reform, birds migrate, whales migrate, do they think we are that stupid we dont realize its a name change for illegal immigration ?

16) Another Latino questions why the U.S. does have a ban on more guns as we are providing them for the drug cartels,why the interest from south of the border for disarming americans ?


The one that I love, the insinuation of taking away Americans guns, why, would Mexico do the same thing, it was wonderful how the two latino partners blamed everything on America

Possible Answers for 1 through 16:

1. Money & Trade with Mexico?
2. To prevent upsetting the Multi-Nationals Doing Business With Mexico?
3. National Security Due To Border Access And Proximity?
4. Alleged Fight Against Major Drug Cartel(s)?
5. To Keep the Abundance of Illegals For Large Business Franchises?
6. To Keep Illegal Farm Workers, er, Working?
7. The U.S. is not going to go against Mexico due to NAFTA
8. NWO?
9. BO Likes Burritos?
10. Thousands of Mexican Fast Food Restaurants that pay taxes and hire illegals?
11. Calderon is part of the whole enchilada?
12. There is always favoritism and special treatment towards Mexico?
13. To continue to push the "agenda?" Whatever it happens to be?
14. There is no intention to close the borders and mass deport anyone?
15. To assure Calderon that amnesty is in the works?
16. To make sure that the Mexican community is not offended in any way?

Remember, the way things look, it's ALL about THEM and THEIR needs and wants. My personal opinion. I could be wrong.

For everyone who sat and watched the conference and soon got bored because parts of it was in Spanish and changed the channel or turned it off and that's as far as you went, I'm disappointed. You SHOULD HAVE CALLED THE WHITE HOUSE and told them that this is the USA, WE SPEAK ENGLISH HERE AND THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN BROADCASTED IN ENGLISH!! WE are tax paying citizens of this country and anything like this that concerns OUR country needs to be broadcasted in OUR NATIVE LANGUAGE!

Quit taking this kind of treatment in the shorts and not doing anything proactive about it!!!! That's why this is happening!! Everybody just walks away!!

If you would like the White House conference in english...please press 2...

It was a media none news event. I remember the day...and thought I big deal would be made of it...but little was printed and I don't think any TV covered it...


U.S. Reacts to Mexico's Drug Legalization...or not!!!!
Sunday, April 30, 2006


Print ShareThisMEXICO CITY — The United States reacted cautiously on Saturday to a Mexican measure that would make it legal to carry small amounts of cocaine, heroin and other drugs for personal use.

News of the decriminalization did not make the front pages of any major Mexico City newspaper, nor was it discussed in editorials. It was slightly better publicized in the north of the country, where turf wars between rival drugs gangs have caused hundreds of killings along the Mexico-U.S. border, but was still overshadowed by news about immigration.

President Vicente Fox has yet to sign the bill, which would eliminate penalties for those caught with small amounts of some drugs, but his office has applauded it.

Mexican lawmakers have said the bill will let authorities focus on major drug traffickers and not clutter prisons with small-time offenders.

U.S. Embassy spokeswoman Judith Bryan said Saturday the measure could actually make it easier to prosecute drug crimes because it attempts to "precisely specify the amount of narcotics in possession of a suspect to allow a criminal prosecution."

"Preliminary information from Mexican legislative sources indicates that the intent of the draft legislation is to clarify the 'small amounts' of drugs for personal use as stated in current Mexican law," she said.

Mexican law already left open the possibility of dropping charges against people caught with drugs if they are considered addicts and if "the amount is the quantity necessary for personal use." The new bill drops the "addict" requirement — automatically letting any "consumers" have drugs — and sets out specific allowable quantities.

In Mexico City's stylish Zona Rosa neighborhood, Mexicans and tourists alike were surprised to hear it could soon be legal to carry small amounts of drugs.

Drug violence "will drop because there will be less pressure on the people who consume drugs," said Francisco Garrido, who was selling orange juice at a sidewalk stall.

But Berta Perez, an antique store owner, worried that drug sales would bring young budget travelers and spook away well-heeled tourists.

If signed by Fox, purchasing drugs "would be like buying a cigarette on the street," she said.

Washington has long praised the Fox administration for its anti-drug efforts.

Since the president took office in December 2000, several key drug lords have been captured, including Benjamin Arellano Felix, the suspected operations chief of a Tijuana-based drug gang bearing his family's name, and Osiel Cardenas, the accused head of the Gulf cartel, thought mainly to operate along Mexico's border with Texas.

Yet drug addiction is growing in Mexico, especially in border cities like Tijuana.

John Morgan, a retired school psychologist visiting Mexico City from Grand Junction, Colo., said it makes sense for the country to decriminalize marijuana — but that harder drugs maybe should not be included.

"We have put people in jails for years for marijuana, something that is probably less harmful than alcohol," he said. "But the list here is a little too global, there are several classes of drugs which are quite harmful."
