Mexico Wants To Be a US Citizen! Or Senator!

KRT Wire | 03/20/2006 | Mexico buys ads to weigh in on U.S. immigration debate:

For its part, the ad (placed in some major US newspapers-ed.) says(sic), the U.S. should allow Mexico to participate in the "design, management, supervision and evaluation" of a guest worker program that should cover "the largest possible number of workers and their families" currently in the U.S. illegally.

"Our message to the American people is that we are your neighbors, we are your friends, this is a common challenge, and we are part of the solution, not only part of the problem," de Icaza said.

Bush, Fox and Canada's new prime minister, Stephen Harper, meet at the end of the month in Cancun, Mexico, to discuss security and economic issues.

Sorry Mexico (specifically de Icaza), but in order to "participate",

YOU HAVE TO BE A LEGAL CITIZEN OF THE UNITED STATES!

This is an INTERNAL, DOMESTIC affair, decisions and/or choices which WILL be made by the LEGAL citizens of the United States of America through their elected representatives (we hope).

PERIOD.

And once the radio talk shows pick this up and conservatives around the nation start chatting it up, de Icaza and Mexico are going to regret publishing those ads.

US LEGAL CITIZENS do not want your help, do not need your help and frankly would prefer you focus on your OWN problems instead of sticking your nose into OUR domestic tranquility.

First the Republic of Ireland. Now Mexico. Who is next? Anyone? Panama? Canada? How about Chile or Brazil? Or beter yet - CUBA! Hey - has anyone asked CUBA (that's Castro to you) what Cuba thinks the US 'should' do?

On second thought - don't bother... I don't think even Mr. T or Rocker McCain (Sen. Ted K. and his co-author Sen. McCain) would care to listen. But you never know - maybe you should give them a jingle on their cellphones.
