Response to President Calderon
Please read the entire story by Congressman Tom McClintock with video at this link.
A century ago President Teddy Roosevelt put it this way. He said:
"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language ... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

And it is a disgrace that he would be (giddily) cheered on from the (radical marxist) left wing of the White House and by many (marxist amnesty) Democrats in this Congress.

Awesome, Rep. McClintock!!!!!! Three cheers for your candor and honesty to step out and tell it right!!!
This is the United States of America and Mexico has no business telling us what we need to do when their laws, on the books, are much, much more stringent. Take care of your own country and people and leave ours alone.
And, BTW, if you come here - leave your flag at home. We already have a flag. Our colors are not red, white and green. Our colors, which we proudly wave, are - red, white and blue - the stars and stripes. Thank you very much!

The video is terrific. Every American should see this one.
I only hope that there are some 'fence sitters' who change their minds after seeing this blatant show of disrespect for America from our own congressmen.
It's a sad day for America when our government gives a standing ovation to a foreign president who just disrespected the laws of our land.

Mexico will continue to tell the United States what to do and when to do it. The illegals come here and tell the United States what they want and they get it. Now Calderon has come here and the United States is kissing his a..as always. The illegals get before the United States citizen
