Hortense, Oh come on, those giant Mexican flags are EVERYWHERE. I've seen them in Cancun, and there are at least two in Mexico City. I got this picture from downtown Mexico City, they had to put cages around the highway to protect cars from being hit with the flag: Big Flag

Speaking generally, Mexicans have an incredibly outsized pride in their country. Those of you who have crossed the border at San Ysidro have seen a manifestation of that pride, the gigantic flag on their side of the border which basically is a large middle finger directed at the Yanki. Even Mexicans that live outside the country, in the US or Europe, are fiercely proud of it. The obvious question is, if its so great, why don’t you live there?

We don’t have an obligation to destroy our country for the benefit of Mexico regardless of any agreement you think we entered into towards that end.

Ron, the same “faction” made the agreement. NAFTA was ratified under a Democratic president. Now a Democratic congress is fighting the rules of NAFTA on behalf of its union constituents.

Why doesn’t the USA live up to its trading commitments, in particular Mexican trucks into the USA?

Your country needs friends yet it treats its closest neighbours like dirt! Your government system just does not work when one faction can make an agreement and another block it.

The Mexican government ministers screamed at Canada, “How dare you try to control your own borders and enforce your own laws!”

Satisfied with their response, the ministers then headed back to their bunkers after receiving more death threats from the Mexican drug lords.

Why does every country seem to have more grit than we do when it comes to illegal aliens? Especially when it comes to Mexico, which has a policy of exporting its least educated citizens to the U.S. to steal work and send home remittances?
