If only one of those stray bullets had gone more astray.

Read the Mexican constitution before calling others xenophobes.

You'll see who the REAL intolerant people are.
If you are not Mexican and you think your race, or another non-Mexican one, is superior to the Mexican race, then you are racist.

Just using race in any argument does not automatically qualify.

Nice to see Obama's true feelings on immigration problems in border states.
Obama is pandering to the latino voting base. He needs their vote in 2012 and the only way for him to win is to push through amnesty for illegals.

We're already paying for wars in 3 countries. Bring the military home..put them on the border.

I'm sure protecting our borders will not cost as much as funding 3 wars and then rebuilding each country as we bomb the hell out of it.
