The U.S. border state leading the battle against illegal immigration with unprecedented tough laws has received complaints from Mexicos government that too many Mexicans have been repatriated and the country is overwhelmed with demands for housing, jobs and schools.
Fed up with the devastating effect of illegal immigration, Arizona has enacted the nations toughest laws to curb the problem and evidently its working. State legislators have passed laws barring illegal immigrants from receiving government services, posting bail for serious crimes and winning punitive damages in lawsuits. This year a new law makes it illegal for businesses to hire undocumented workers and those that do can be shut down.
The state legislator who sponsored the work bill, Representative Russell Pearce, says the laws undeniably positive effects include smaller class sizes, shorter emergency room waits and an overall huge savings to taxpayers. The Republican congressman drafted the bill because studies revealed that illegal immigration cost Arizona taxpayers over $2 billion annually, not including the toll of crime and destruction.
It turns out that enough illegal immigrants have either fled the U.S. or been deported that officials in the Mexican state of Sonora, which shares an extensive border with Arizona, have complained that too many of their fellow countrymen have returned. They miss the remittances sent from the U.S. as well as smaller class sizes in local schools.
Mexican government officials knew Arizonas tough employment verification law would become their worst nightmare, which explains why they tried blocking it. Earlier this year a delegation of nine legislators from Sonora toured Tucson and held a news conference to say that their beloved state cannot handle the demand for housing, jobs and schools resulting from illegal Mexican workers returning home.
One baffled Mexican legislator, Leticia Amparano Gamez, asked in Spanish how can they pass a law like this? She went on to explain that Mexico is not prepared for the tremendous problems it will face as more and more Mexicans working in Arizona and sending money to their families return to hometowns in Sonora without jobs. Another member of the Mexican delegation, Representative Florencio Diaz Armenta, asked what do we do with the repatriated?
Well I'll tell you Flo, what you do is take them and, no on second thoughts perhaps I'd better not.
Here's an idea:
Hint: 1970's Charlton Heston film.
Well, hell. If Mexico doesn’t want Mexican citizens why the hell should we take them?
Hee-hee
Half the returnees can build the houses, and the other half can do the landscaping. They just need to meet at the local Casa Depot.

So what’s the problem?
Our Mexicans will only be taking jobs that their Mexicans don’t want to do
About time-----let's get this going nationwide.
After all, they got all their construction workers back.
Shut up, Mexico....or else.
US taxpayers provide the nuclear umbrella for you Mexicans-—scot free.
You keep dissing the US, things could change.
I’m hoping this is satire. Maybe they should make a law that bans returning Mexicans, then what the hell will we do?
it is to laugh...
Send them to Canada?
I know you were being sarcastic, but there's actually some truth to your statement. The ruling class Mexicans have a much higher percentage of Spanish (European) blood, than most of the ones coming into America, and often refer to them as "mountain indians".
Must ... not ... get ... banned!
Do illegals have taurine in them? If they do, Cat Food could be made out of them.
Otherwise, it would have to be dog food.
Is this what your were thinking?? :-)
Mexico - fix your own cess pool of a country - your problems are not ours.
McC has emphasized he won't "pander" to so/cons to get this important constituency behind his candidacy. According to McQueeg, it's called "pandering" only when applied to conservatives.
McC has No such problem pandering to illegals. McC is all puckered up, on his knees, sucking up to illegals like a dry drunk with his mouth glued to a beer keg. Alarmingly, McCain chose a dual-loyalty traitor to be his "Hispanic Outreach Director." Talk about pandering-----McCain said he chose Hernandez because he AGREES with his positions.
Juan Hernandez was born in Dallas and decided as an adult to become a dual-national Mexican citizen. His last verifiable job was serving in Mexican President Vicente Fox's cabinet as Fox's "American Reconquista Director." Hernandez then worked for Bush hater George Soros' international foundations---(one such foundation published Hernendez's book that taunts Americans).
Hernandez believes all illegal Mexicans and Mexican-Americans in the USA should become dual citizens and consider themselves Mexicans first, "to the 8th generation." The "New American Pioneers" proclaimed in his book are the illegal alien invaders he urges to become settlers in the USA for "Reconquista"---the plan to take back the SW.
===================================
Another group switch-hitting to McCain is shortstuff Fox pundit, Billy Kristol, his daddy, and their crowd of pukeneos.
The Kristols are cheerleaders for the current admin's most destructive polices---including the twice-failed amnesty. The conservative-hating Kristols are also designated drivers of the wacky "National Greatness" thingy---which must have been written in a drunken stupor.
Kristol and the pukeneos first-choice was Rooty Giuliani; they were the ones orchestrating Rooty's stupid strategy to religiously cleanse the Repub party and kick conservatievs to the curb. The Kristol crowd switched to McCain when their boy Giuliani tanked like a deadweight going down a 300 ft cistern.
The pukeneos were directing Giuliani's cockamamie strategy to "save himself" for Florida---which has reached cult status as the stupidest strategy in campaign history.
Giuliani ferociously campaigned (and lost) in EVERY primary/caucus, then campaigned 61 days straight in Fla, and came in a distant third..........without conservatives.
Now we await McC's disastrous sucking up to hyphenates. Keep in mind Hyphenator McQueeg helped write the twice-failed amnesty bill we fought so hard to stop.
