"Comparisons of proposals to alter our border policies to the Berlin Wall are not only disingenuous and intellectually dishonest, they are personally offensive to me."

Yep!

It took him enough time - about 2 months after the fact of the MX inane press.
He must have been too busy with his beer baroness wife to take any action.
After Condi cleaned up for him.

[mtbopfuyn]

there has been widespread misinformation about a proposal to extend to border walls and tighten immigration enforcement

That's true because it's unlikely there will be any walls or enforcement in the near future.

U.S. Ambassador to Mexico Tony Garza on Friday asked Mexicans to respect America's right to protect its borders

That was pretty WHITE of him. After all, isn't the issue with Mexico based on race? < /sarcasm mode off>

[Noachian]

Mexico too imposes immigration controls.

This is a backhanded slap at Mexico's "defense" of its southern border. Too bad Garza didn't elaborate more on the subject.

[Fenris6]

Thanks for the help, but in the end none of it matters. We don't care whether you approve or disapprove - its OUR border.

[SALChamps03]

Frankly, they can respect our right to protect our borders, not respect it, or go jump in a lake. There's nothing thay can do about it except whine like a bunch of girls anyway.

[sangoo]

I hope he'll also ask President Bush to respect our right to protect our borders.

[beethovenfan]

Mexico won't respect our border because they don't recognize it. They think our southwest is still part of Mexico.

[rayvd]

Thank you ambassador!

I've gotten so frustrated hearing this crap from Mexico with no official response when it is SO easy to debunk their arguments.

Keep making statements like this. PR is needed to counter the media's love affair with making the US look like no more than a big bully trying to keep future hard-working US citizens out of our country.

Ambassador to Mexico Tony Garza on Friday asked Mexicans to respect America's right to protect its borders

Asked? ASKED!!!! That's like asking permission of Mexico to allow us to protect our borders.

Garza should have TOLD Mexico to respect our borders.

"But we do trust that our neighbors will respect our right to those measures on our own territory," he said, "and will understand the distinction we make between legal and illegal immigration."

If our media organizations (supposed masters of English usage} can't understand the difference how can Mexicans, Guatemalans and Hondurans be expected to?

Seriously, though; it's good to see at least one Federal representative telling them straight.

[From One - Many]

I wish I could be more optomistic but here is what I see happening....there will be cover bills in congress till dooms day to cover for our traitors and traitor-wanna-be's in congress. Nothing is going to be done, period, to protect this nations borders. The grand plan of our traitors and traitor-wanna-be's in congress will never allow the borders of this nation to be protected. The traitors and traitor-wanna-be's will continue to rob the treasury for illegals at taxpayer's expense. When the next attack happens and more Americans are killed because of the traitors and traitor-wanna-be's in our congress, there will be a lot of talk and then NOTHING will change. I await our traitors and traitor-wanna-be's in congress to prove me wrong, but I doubt they will.

Again, I wish I could be more optomistic.

[Logical me]

It's way past time to clean Mexico's clock. Put up the wall!!!!!!! Maybe if we keep Mexicans out they will take a better look at their Country and clean it up starting with Fox.

Ambassador Garza Ping!

Please FReepmail me if you want on or off this South Texas/Mexico ping list.

[DoNotDivide]

Mexico is an enemy. With friends in America.

[dennisw]

Don't say yep. This guy is a no good bum.

[EternalVigilance]

Ping...

[SpaceBar]

More Americans have been adversely affected by illegal immigrants from Mexico than were by nineteen Saudi nationals on September 11, 2001.

[DustyMoment]

U.S. ambassador to Mexico urges Mexicans to respect America's right to protect its borders

Yeah. That'll do it.

[janetgreen]

GWBush is silent on this issue (as usual).
