Tough
immigration talk backfires for Mexico's Fox
Mexican President Vicente
Fox's latest bid to convince U.S. policy makers to ease immigration
controls for Mexican workers may have backfired after his tough
talk late last week was roundly condemned as racist. -- A frustrated
Fox lashed out on Friday at new U.S. controls on immigrants,
but he ended up red-faced over his own words. |

We
Need To Know Who's Coming
When Mr. Gonzalez spoke about the
Patriot Act, he was clear, outspoken, and smooth-talking. But
when Hannity asked him about illegal immigration, Mr. Gonzalez
suddenly lost half of his eloquence. He began repeating word
"difficult" over and over again as if border enforcement
by a superpower (the U.S.) from intrusions by violators from
a banana republic (Mexico) was something that could not be done.

Reporter's Opinion Immigration/Population Explosion
It is this reporter's opinion that the

face it, it took until 1830 for humanity to reach 1 billion people;
1930 to reach 2 billion; 1960 to reach 3 billion; 1975 to reach
4 billion; 1997 to reach 6 billion ... all of this with a growth
of nearly 100 million per year... |

Immigration's
not-so-hidden costs hurt American workers
Despite the partisan bickering for which Washington
is known these days, there were nothing but smiles and warm and
cheery bipartisanship as Senators Edward M. Kennedy and John
McCain announced the Senate version of a bill to overhaul the
nation's battered immigration policy. Let's hope it works this
time. |

Immigration is the next big thing in
political hot buttons, but who wins and who loses? Both parties
are divided within their own ranks on how to position themselves
for maximum advantage on an issue that is rising quickly toward
the social and political surface. Both sides agree it could be
a deciding factor in many races in next year's midterm election. |
