		<description>Mexico works to keep jobs in Mexico for Mexican citizens.

I posted some on it &lt;a href=&quot;http://centerforsanity.blogspot.com/2006/05/mexico-works-to-bar-non-mexicans-from.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Here&lt;/a&gt;.

Of course Mexico does not want immigrants who want to actually work in Mexico, they want businesses, retirees, ect with money - &lt;a href=&quot;http://centerforsanity.blogspot.com/2006/04/mexico-and-americans-illegal-immigrant.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Link&lt;/a&gt;

It is amazing that Mexico has the cajones to criticize America for wanting to enforce our border security, to curb the illegal aliens flowing across our borders. When compared to Mexican Constitution on how they are handling their own immigration, how they handle illegal aliens entering their country and now how they want jobs to be for Mexican Citizens only.

But America is always blamed for being to hard on immigrants, especially illegal ones....

Sorry, it really cheeses me off with the do as I say and not as I do mentality of other countries and even our own damn government.</description>

		<description>- Yes andrew. I&#039;m quite sure a Marxist dictatorship thats basically starved, terrorised, and enslaved its people for 70 years+ is just the sort of government you lefties love. Its also clear how much the Left hopes we&#039;ll fail in Iraq. You&#039;ve made it clear for years that you wish this was France. Thats why you&#039;ll never amount to anything in America.

		<description>They get what they deserve I guess.

I wonder, did they vote for him because he was black? I believe he carried a majority of the black voters.

I cannot believe Nagin got re-elected, after abandoning his city, not instituting an evacuation plan, after leaving busses to flood that could have saved many, and after his racists remarks of a chocolate city....

Sometimes I worry about people.</description>

First Katrina, now these two gentlemen. I wonder how many citizens of New Orleans are wondering if God has it in for the city?</description>

I only wish the Republicans had thought of it first.  I will be more than irked if the Republican leadership doesn&#039;t follow through on this.</description>

		<description>Pam I have no problem with a country willing to use it for energy purposes, but wit hthe rhetoric and threats coming out of Iran, plus its ties to terrorim, plus that they have found enriched uranium that far surpasses the needed enrichment for normal energy means and nears or is enriched enough for weapon grade material, plus the fact that Iran has blocked attempts at UN discovery and inspections of the nuclear process and plans they have...It makes for very very very suspicious activity.</description>

		<description>Sanity-  the nuclear programs don&#039;t always need to lead to weapons..some of these tiny little countries could use them for energy usage and not weaponry but in this day and age, you can&#039;t trust anyone with them.  I get mad at this countries laxidasical attitude toward protecting our nuclear power plants but that is another story!</description>

		<description>Actually why would other countries NEED nukes now?

It is when insane countries like Iran try and get nukes and threaten to wipe other countries off the map and if anyone tries to stop them or put sanctions on them or refer them to the useless UN, they will be &#039;severely hurt&#039;.

At this point in time, I do not think any other country needs ot have nukes, we have existing nukes from before, but as the world slowly becomes more peaceful I can see those finally going away also - as long as the others do also. Little countries with madmen at the helm need not have nukes.</description>

		<description>sanity, actually that is part of the arguement that other countries are raising to us.  We don&#039;t want other countries to have nukes (for obvious reasons), but we in turn, do have them.  To answer your question though..the UN would talk and that is all the UN would do.  The UN would find out where our program is because the MSM would let them know!</description>

		<description>- I wouldn&#039;t think that would be a comperable scenario sanity....Maybe in the abstract... But as large as America is I doubt anyone would know if we had a program going on.... Iran is small and in a sort of fishbowl....hard to not know when they&#039;re up to something.....even for our Illustrious CIA....

- But theres a reason I asked the question which I&#039;d talk to if any of the Liberals respond.....

		<description>You bring up an excellent point Bang on Iran and the nuclear program issue.

I would like to turn it on its head though, and re-ask the the msae question.....

If this was President Bush, and the US saying that we were going to wipe off another country from the map, and President Bush says the &#039;program&#039; he is using for nuclear is for electricity only, and yet enriched uranium (15 to 20 times the amount of enrichment needed for regular electricity and is at the scale for nuclear bomb material) is found, the increase wording of the president that is very threatening, to one specific country and to any that would oppose what he is doing....

What then would the UN and everyone be saying then?

Do you think UN would sit idly by (well duh, were talking about the UN here), I would think they would probably be more vocal about the US than they are on Iran.

Double standards.

What is the difference if both are madmen?

But I can bet you that there would be a big difference in how it would be handled.</description>

		<description>- One question I&#039;d put to the Left, is where they stand on the Iranian Nuclear program issue. Do they support a process that starts with exhausting all possible negotiation approaches, but in the event it should fail, the use of any and all options to preclude Iran having WMD&#039;s?
