The Mexican government favors immigration legislation proposed by U.S. senators Edward Kennedy and John McCain that would allow currently undocumented migrants to work in the United States for up to six years, a spokesman for President Vicente Fox said Thursday.

Presidential spokesman Rubén Aguilar said the bipartisan proposal "is the one that comes closest to what Mexico wants."

Well, if that isn't the best argument to stake the McVain/Kennedy bill through the heart until dead, I don;t know what is.

........."is the one that comes closest to what Mexico wants."

This is the main reason to oppose the McCain/Kennedy bill. It is Shamnesty. Period.

Memo to Mexico: It is none of your concern what legislation is pending in the United States.

Dont even get me started on this one.

Although, I should say our Government needs to check the Constitution in regards to agreements like cafta and free trade and illegal entry

I'm tired of being mad about this..I'll show my anger at the voting booth..and if that dont work....well...EVERY...DOG...HAS....ITS....DAY.

Well if Mexico is for it, it must be good! (Not.)

Hm.....so Mexico (with all it's illegal immigrant problems along ITS southern border) thinks that the US is giving illegals a raw shake? How funny....

I'm feed up...We have got to send a message to the rest of congresscritters who are still 'sane' that we as a nation must stop illigals at all cost. and also, I don't give a rats' ass what Mexico thinks.

In similar news...

The policy advocated by Howard Dean and Cindy Sheehan comes closest to what Al Qaeda wants.

Taken under advisement...

So it's official - McCain and Kennedy both support amnesty. Why do the popel of Arizona elect a senator that wants to erase the border with Mexico? Sounds like McCain is another politician that supports illegals over legal immigrants and Americans.

I live in AZ, and sometimes I want that "McStain" to become President, JUST SO we in AZ don't have to pretend he's a good conservative anymore. If it comes down to him and Hillary - see ya Johnny! Have fun at the WH.

But the oldies around here love him - he wins with 60 to 65% or more every time. I vote for the libertarian against him.

I'm just waiting until McStain vacates one way or another - and then expect Hayworth to step up for the spot. He's got serious spine about the border.

Anything with the McCain and Kennedy names on it; should be disregarded and trashed immediately.

Ain't worth a plug nickle.

We signed NAFTA, then the president created the North American Alliance and the Partnership for Prosperity. He is obligating us to Mexico through international treaties and national policy.

...Mexico is still so messed up that it can't take care of its own population. Or won't--it's wealthy, but corrupt.
