Re: "Fox: Legalizing Mexicans would augment U.S. security"
by Manuel Fuentes, EFE - 11/10/2002

Dear VCT:

Does Mr. Fox think that Americans are stupid enough to buy his idiotic "arguments" in favor of amnesty for millions of Mexican illegal aliens in the U.S.? Apparently so. It's an insult to our national wisdom as much as it's a plot to strengthen his means of influence on American politics. No wonder why President Bush appeared so reserved towards Mr. Fox after their meeting earlier this month - I suppose, no one likes to be insulted.

Think of it. Legalizing Mexican illegal border crossers would do about as much to U.S. security as legalizing petty theft (and letting the thieves enjoy the property they stole) would do for lowering the crime rates: they would change the statistics, perhaps, while actually worsening the problem.

For those who might take Mr. Fox's "sincere" concerns about our national security seriously, read Blomberg's report (11/06 13:51 "Mexico's Castaneda Says Small Nations Should Tie Up U.S. in UN" By John Lyons, a link posted at VCT website) http://quote.bloomberg.com/fgcgi.cgi?touch=1&btitle=Politics&T=sa_content.ht&s=APclkrRUMTWV4aWNv on what Mr. Fox's Foreign Minister Jorge Castaneda revealed as Mexico's policy in dealing with the U.S.: ``I like very much the metaphor of Gulliver, of ensnarling the giant,'' Castaneda said in an interview with the newspaper. ``Tying it up, with nails, with thread, with 20,000 nets that bog it down: these nets being norms, principles, resolutions, agreements, and bilateral, regional and international covenants.''

Mr. Fox must be have a really low opinion about our intellectual capabilities if he thinks we can't connect the dots and see what he and his cabinet are cooking for us.

Sincerely,

Dr. M.S.
California
