Mexican Congressmen asking in letter to Obama a halt to roundups of illegal aliens
NAFBPO - M3Report foreign news ^ | Jan 22, 2009 | NAFBPO

Frontera (Tijuana, Baja Calif.) 1/21/09

Two Mex. “federal deputies” (Congressmen) of the “PRD” party, along with Elvira Arellano (the woman who took refuge for months in a Chicago church and was subsequently deported) presented a letter dated Jan. 21 at the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City. The letter, addressed to the new U.S. President, is said to state: Specifically, we write to ask you to take the urgent necessary measures to which you committed yourself during the campaign to obtain a just and integral migratory reform in the United States. The Mex. legislators, backed by some twenty migrant organizations in both countries, also request a halt of round-ups and deportations. ———–

Economista (Mexico City) 1/21/09

(The following is an extract from an article regarding the Compean & Ramos issue)

“Bush commutes the sentence of two border officials” On Monday the Government of Mexico criticized Bush’s decision to pardon the agents, asserting that it was the product of a pressure campaign by anti-immigrant groups in the United States. In a press conference, Carlos Rico, sub-Secretary of Mexico’s Chancery for North America, said “All along these pressures we have expressed our most firm opposition that this would happen.” (Direct quote) Transl. note: read: While all these pressures were going on we kept expressing our firm opposition to them) He added “It seems to us that it sends a bad message, a message of impunity.” ———-

a.m. (Leon, Guanajuato) 1/21/09 (also found in several other papers)

A long column titled “President Obama” by the syndicated Mexican writer Miguel Angel Granados Chapa begins by mentioning one of President Bush’s last official acts and then going on at length to praise the new president. Granados has degrees in both law and journalism, but his opening paragraph contains a gross factual error. “According to his idiosyncrasy, George Bush closed his Presidency with a support gesture for the worst United States: he pardoned (sic) two agents of the Migra who murdered (sic) a Mexican from the back, a drug trafficker and undocumented.” ———-

El Diario (Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua) 1/21/09

Item headlines from the “Local News” section: - Red alert due to execution of another two state police. - Two decapitated bodies found - Man murdered in front of elementary school - Two heads abandoned in Guadalupe are identified ———–

La Prensa Grafica (San Salvador, El Salvador) 1/21/09

El Salvador’s National Police reported that there were 15 homicides in that country yesterday and that six of them took place in San Salvador, the capital city. One of the victims was a bus company manager who was shot apparently for refusing to surrender to monetary extortion demands by thugs. ————

El Diario de Coahuila (Saltillo, Coah.) 1/21/09

Mex. army personnel found and dismantled a “narcolab” in El Alcalde, Michoacan. This marks the third such event within one week in that state; last weekend another drug production facility was found just 15 kilometers away.. ————

El Tiempo (Bogota, Colombia) 1/21/09

“In 2008 Colombia had the lowest homicide tally in 30 yrs” - (extract) -

According to police figures there were 16,140 homicides last year, which represents a rate of 33 violent deaths for each 100 thousand inhabitants. Nevertheless,, some (state) capitals such as Medellin registered an increase in the number of assassinations. Other cities, like Cali, continue to have indicators much above the national average, even though they have been improving in the last years. In that city the crime rate closed with 66 for each 100 thousand inhabitants; that is, double that of the nation. Yet, just two years ago it was above 70. 2009 also starts up better in general numbers: there were 163 fewer homicides in the first 17 days of January than in the same period of 2007. Nevertheless, the country continues to bathe in red if it is measured according to international indicators, which are up to two times smaller. In America, countries such as Venezuela and El Salvador report higher totals even though, on paper, they don’t have such complex crime factors as the ones that face Colombia. Police reported 17,198 homicides in 2007 in Colombia. ————

The attachment is a cartoon from “Critica” (Sonora): a kneeling Pres. Calderon prays to “Saint Obama” and says: “We ask you, Lord, to work together, “elbow with elbow” (read: shoulder to shoulder) in our bilateral problems, above all, and for the good of my administration, regarding the economy.” ———— - end of report - (see cartoon!)

From what I’ve heard, Napolitano is going to request that the ‘focus’ be on the employers, rather than the illegal aliens....Since we know the employers have never and will never get arrested/prosecuted/or fined...looks like both will get off scott free.

...”he pardoned (sic) two agents of the Migra who murdered (sic) a Mexican from the back, a drug trafficker and undocumented.”

Viva La Migra!!

I’d put that on a t-shirt, but even up here in Columbus Ohio, it would probably get me and my family killed.

The deeper I dig into this whole mess, the more I am realizing that we are sooooo far in over our heads on this mess. I’ve been fooling myself over the CIR timeline and realize now just how VERY late to the ‘party’ on this issue I am. I’ve had it all backwards...they’ve planned this out for years and the roots are deep and widespread. For instance, from the accepted signage at your local Home Depot..... to infiltrating so many aspects of our government...with the help of Hispanic and pro-Hispanic Americans & businesses, to the extent that it’s become accepted that our own taxpayer money is blatantly being used for the benefit of illegal aliens. Even up here in Ohio...

http://ochla.ohio.gov/

All these years, while I, like many other distracted Americans who busily slept, worked, raised their families.... they’ve been getting their many, many ducks in a row and suprise to me, CIR is just the FINAL step. My lightbulb moment for today...I don’t have many anymore...why I’m here, I’ll never know...my HATE for the political process is overwhelming me. I’ve no faith in it anymore.

Yes, just the way I’ve been feeling. When 1/3 of FR is still defending McCain and his band of RINO’s, it must become clear to even hard heads like us.

It’s SO close to over. I’m going to do my best to just enjoy my little world for the time I have left. I’m tired of fighting them.

Remember that map and the 18 states population aliens make up? Imagine what that will look like in 10 more years.
The USA is just a marketplace to the world.

This ain’t your daddy’s USA any longer.

I sure do remember that map. I’ll tell you AuntB...that is when the magnitude of the problem first became apparent to me...I just never dreamed that the more I learned and harder I fought, the more defeated I would feel. It’s like screaming out loud in a room full of deaf people. It’s so true what they’ve said about having successfully invaded our country without firing a single shot...I would say that not only have they invaded it...but soon will overtake it. I feel so bad that the USA my children will raise their children in, will be so different than what I’ve known. And I’ll tell you something else AuntB...I probably won’t live long enough to hear my sons admit it, or to be able to say, I told you so...it’s so frustrating at times, not only on FR, but to be surrounded at home by a generation who refuses to waver from what’s P.C. and who’s bought into the lie “they’re just hard workers looking to support their families”. Maybe the day when most jobs require fluent Spanish and they’re forced to complete with the Amnestied to get them. A sad day indeed.

I feel the same way Kim. Just look what happened and is still going on in Minnesota. After all the vote counts and Al Frankenstein is the ONLY one getting more votes. That is a Pepe Le PU moment.

When will Zer0 sign an executive order halting all arrest/roundups of illegals until Congress eliminates the problem by giving amnesty to everyone with a pulse?

“I am moving to New Zealand.”

Good luck. NZ has some of the most stringent immigration policies.

A black sheep liberal cousin, who was very rich in the 1990’s tried to immigrate there. He was told NZ didn’t want rich retired Americans moving to NZ.

A local friend goes to NZ on New Year’s Day and stays until the middle of March or as long as his Visa will permit him to fly fish. He said the liberals running NZ are very liberal and despise a powerful America. He stays in the Southern Area, and the people are good to him and his wife. I believe that he is required to have return tickets when they go through the NZ airport immigration or papers please areas.

All taken care of in his Omnibus Immigration Reform/ACORN-Democrat Voter Rights Act.

A caravan of omnibuses will assemble in Mexico to bring tens of millions of Mexicans to their new homes in formerly Republican districts.
