MEXICAN Foreign Minister Luis Ernesto Derbez today slammed US President George W. Bush's plan to send 6000 troops to secure the US-Mexico border and stanch the flow of illegal immigrants there, adding that Mexico has no plans to follow suit.
Mr Derbez complained in a television interview that the move amounted to "militarising" the border, enabling US troops to detain people.
Mr Bush said "very clearly" that 6000 National Guard troops will be stationed there to support border patrol operations, Mr Derbez said.
The US president yesterday said that up to 6000 National Guard troops - part-time soldiers under the authority of state governors but whom the president can call upon - could be deployed on the southern border beginning next month.
He said the soldiers would not arrest migrants but instead would provide ancillary services such as road and vehicle repair, fence building and electronic surveillance. The troops would be rotated into the border area for stints of about two weeks throughout a two-year period.
And yet I forget why I should care want any Mexican politico thinks.AWB
Luis Ernesto Derbez is a punk.
Hahahahahaha!

Look out!
Bush might back off and apologize to Mexico now!
From the Halls of Montezuma...
About time to open up a little whoop @ss on the Mexican government.
Well kiss mah grits!!!!!
But yet stuff like this doesn't make our President boiling mad enough to call for a wall and enough border patrol personel to secure our borders! He should be blasting this guy for all he's worth about our soveriegn right to secure our borders however we see fit without permission from Mexico to do so!
My spanish is not real good, but I believe my message to the PM is pronounced...
"UckFay, Uyay!"
You bozo! W said "up to" 6000 NG. Considering the rest of the speech, that could mean 2.
to hell with them!
President Bush must be doing something right...
Hey Luis
Pay attention...... W changes the world.
Life as you know it is over.
Your political life is nearing an end. They will start demonstrating in Mexico City to throw the corrupt bastards out.
The mexicans should have waited a day or two before they got all riled up. The senate clearly seems intent on letting all those who want to be parasites into the US.
Makes sense, all of their troops are guarding THEIR southern border..
There is no need for a wall excepr in the minds of those who don't understand the situation.
If the Mexican FM is unhappy then it must be a good plan. His unhappiness makes me happy!
