Reciprocity...

Via Roger's Rules

Dear President Obama:

I’m planning to move my family and extended family into Mexico for my health, and I would like to ask you to assist me.

We’re planning to simply walk across the border from the U.S. Into Mexico, and we’ll need your help to make a few arrangements.

We plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports, immigration quotas and laws. I’m sure they handle those things the same way you do here.So, would you mind telling your buddy, President Calderon, that I’m on my way over?

Please let him know that I will be expecting the following:

1. Free medical care for my entire family.
2. English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I might need, whether I use them or not.
3. Please print all Mexican government forms in English.
4. I want my grandkids to be taught Spa nish by English-speaking (bi-lingual) teachers.
5. Tell their schools they need to include classes on American culture and history.
6. I want my grandkids to see the American flag on one of the flag poles at their school.
7. Please plan to feed my grandkids at school for both breakfast and lunch.
8. I will need a local Mexican driver’s license so I can get easy access to government services. 9. I do plan to get a car and drive in Mexico, but, I don’t plan to purchase car insurance, and I probably won’t make any special effort to learn local traffic laws.
10. In case one of the Mexican police officers does not get the memo from their president to leave me alone, please be sure that every patrol car has at least one English-speaking officer.
11. I plan to fly the U.S. Flag from my house top, put U S. Flag decals on my car, and have a gigantic celebration on July 4th. I do not want any complaints or negative comments from the locals.
12. I would also like to have a nice job without paying any taxes, or have any labor or tax laws enforced on any business I may start.
13. Please have the president tell all the Mexican people to be extremely nice and never say critical things about me or my family, or about the strain we might place on their economy.
14. I want to receive free food stamps.
15. Naturally, I’ll expect free rent subsidies.
16. I’ll need Income tax credits so although I don’t pay Mexican Taxes, I’ll receive money from the government.
17. Please arrange it so that the Mexican Gov’t pays $4,500 to help me buy a new car.
18. Oh yes, I almost forgot, please enroll me free into the Mexican Social Security program so that I’ll get a monthly income in retirement.
I know this is an easy request because you already do all these things for all his people who walk over to the U.S. from Mexico.
I am sure that President Calderon won’t mind returning the favor if you ask him nicely.

This is what we give illegals from Mexico when they come here, they should offer Americans exactly the same thing.

Mexican Government Issues ID Cards At A US School

The following was sent to me by someone who was at the below protest.  She's an active member of the California Minute Men.

The Santa Ana , CA , Mexican Consulate set up a mobile Mexican Matricula Consular ID center on  Capistrano School District at the Adult English Language Development Center located at 31351 Camino Real, San Juan Capistrano , CA .

The fee is $27 per matricula consular application.

When the Minutemen arrived at the Capistrano School District Adult School
there was a hub of activity. A mobile Mexican Consulate center was in full swing.

Legal resident Mexicans have U.S. issued green cards, for identification.

Mexican Consulate Mobile Matricula Consular Center

Mexican Nationals in the U.S. ILLEGALLY do NOT have a green card and therefore need a Mexican matricula consular identification card - matricula means: of a like group and consular means: from a consulate.

After the Minutemen had been onsite for about an hour and a half, the Mobile center was shut down - above photo.

Once Minutemen began to observe and report, documenting and photographing, the Mexican  nationals no longer ventured forth to the center and many, who had been in attendance, left the mobile center.

MEXICAN DIPLOMAT TELLS MINUTEMEN - LEAVE!

The Mexican diplomat, above, would not give us her business card nor her name The Mexican diplomat, above, approached the Minutemen as the Minutemen were peacefully strolling about - on United States public school property - observing and taking photos of the event.

Minutewoman - peacefully assembling on public school property. The Mexican diplomat repeatedly said, "This is a private event for Mexicans only…You cannot be here…I am telling you nicely as I do not want to call the police. Please leave."

Minutemen assembled on U.S. school property

Minuteman Project National Rally Spokesman Raymond Herrera said to the Mexican diplomat, "No, we will not leave. We are guaranteed freedom of assembly under OUR Constitution."

I said to the diplomat, "The U.S. should adopt Mexico ’s immigration policy."
"Oh," she agreed. “ Mexico has a very good immigration policy."

The Mexican diplomat was particularly vexed by our photographing of the event.  “DO NOT TAKE PHOTOS," she commanded repeatedly.  Minutemen stated that in the USA , we have the right to photograph in public. "No, you cannot take photos," she insisted. Herrera and the diplomat then entered into a lengthy discussion in Spanish.

GANG MEMBER with application in hand

The man, above photo, displayed gang hand signals and yelled out "THIS IS OUR TERRITORY!" The Mexican diplomat witnessed and seemingly approved of the gang member at the "Mexican Only” event.

He appeared to be filling out an application - in his left hand above.

Many have informally been told that in the Hispanic community only gang members wear black shoes. Note in the photo above, the only man in black shoes is the self-professed gang member.

DIPLOMAT ASSAULTS!

The Minutewoman, above, had been quietly photographing...

Suddenly the door above opened, and the Mexican diplomat, came out yelling. The photo above is just before she lashed out.  To our utter amazement, the diplomat started to strike out at the Minutewoman! We were in a state of shock.  As she yelled, she struck across the Minutewoman's lower right jaw and lip, several times.  The Minutewoman above, in her left hand, used her sign as a shield, while pulling her camera back from the assaulting Mexican diplomat Ten minutes after the assault the Minutewoman still had a "stinging" sensation on her lip and jaw area.

POLICE ARRIVE

Police arrived after the assault.  The police said they had been called by the consulate as they had reported that the Minutemen were inside the building yelling and pushing about. We never entered the building and had been quietly moving outside, on school property.

Herrera spoke with officers then requested they interview the diplomat. Per the officer's request, the diplomat came forward.

"They must leave," she said to the officer. But the officer replied, "No, this is a public school and they can be here."

The diplomat then said that we must stop photographing them.  "Ma'am,” the officer informed her, "You are in a public area and they can photograph."

The officer then asked her, “Do you have the paperwork to use this facility." "Yes," she replied.  "I would like to see it," the officer said,

"I don't have the paperwork with me," she said back to him.

OFFICER ON THE PHONE

"I would like to see your identification," the officer said. "No, you can't," she said to the officer. The officer at this point followed her inside of the building. "I have no identification with me. I did not drive, "she finally said as the officer pursued the issue. At this point, the door shut and the officer remained inside of the building.   After the officer spoke with the diplomat, he returned to his vehicle and spoke on his cell phone for about 15 to 20 minutes.

After he hung up, he met with us. He said the consulate did not have paperwork but that he had spoken to the individual who had granted the use of the school. He said that we could continue to assemble on the school property.  He appeared sympathetic about the Minutewoman assault, but said the Mexican Consulate staff had diplomatic immunity.

CONSULAR VEHICLE







Mexican consular vehicle

Americans must know what is happening behind our backs, in our own country!!  What is a Matricula Consular card?  Matricula Consular cards are identification cards issued by the Mexican government to mainly illegal immigrants living in the United States . Currently, more than 350 financial institutions accept Matricula Consular cards as proof of identification thereby allowing thousands of illegal immigrants to have access to mainstream U.S. financial services.

I'm curious to know just what would the Mexican government have done is this were occuring somewhere in Mexico.

Calderon Hates America...and So Does Obama

Hat Tip Powerline

Obama's Hypocrisy...Part 902

Barack Obama as stridently criticized one of the constituent states of this nation (Arizona) for having the termerity to criticize the national government for not securing the borders of this country.  Arizona passed a law that enables and requires a law enforcement officer to inquire into the citizenship or green card status of individuals who are stopped for any lawful reason.   Many have criticized this law, among them Barack Obama, our president, Eric Holder, the Attorney General and Janet Napolitano, Secretary of Homeland Security, yet have admitted to not having read the 10 page law...that law in part reads,

For any lawful stop, detention, or arrest made by a law enforcement official or a law enforcement agency of this state or a law enforcement official or a law enforcement agency of a county, city, town or other political subdivision of this state in the enforcement of any other law or ordinance of a county, city or town or this state where reasonable suspicion exists that the person is an alien and is unlawfully present in the United States, a reasonable attempt shall be made, when practicable, to determine the immigration status of the person, except if the determination may hinder or obstruct an investigation.

No, Mr. Obama is going to Kalamazoo Central High School in Kalamazoo, Michigan to shake hands with every graduating senior... BUT,

Seniors are being asked to provide their birthdates, Social Security numbers and citizen status to the Secret Service so background checks could be performed. Such a check is required for anyone who gets within an arm’s length of the president, students were told at their senior breakfast Friday.

  ...but he doesn't want Arizona police to do so when they stop someone for any lawful reason to do...yet another example of why "progressives" (the don't like the term "liberal" any more since it has now taken on so many negative connotations) are at heart hypocrits.  That's after Democrats in Congress gave Mexican President Calderon a standing ovation when he called upon Congress to void the Arizona law...this despite the fact that Mexican Illegal Immigration law is much tough than American. 

Under the Mexican law, illegal immigration is a felony, punishable by up to two years in prison. Immigrants who are deported and attempt to re-enter can be imprisoned for 10 years. Visa violators can be sentenced to six-year terms. Mexicans who help illegal immigrants are considered criminals.   The law also says Mexico can deport foreigners who are deemed detrimental to "economic or national interests," violate Mexican law, are not "physically or mentally healthy" or lack the "necessary funds for their sustenance" and for their dependents.

More importantly, Mr. Calderon denied this fact when interviewed by  Wolf Blitzer on CNN propaganda network,   

BLITZER: So if people want to come from Guatemala or Honduras or El Salvador or Nicaragua, they want to just come into Mexico, they can just walk in?
CALDERON: No. They need to fulfill a form. They need to establish their right name. We analyze if they have not a criminal precedent. And they coming into Mexico. Actually …
BLITZER: Do Mexican police go around asking for papers of people they suspect are illegal immigrants?
CALDERON: Of course. Of course, in the border, we are asking the people, who are you?  And if they explain …
BLITZER: At the border, I understand, when they come in.
CALDERON: Yes.
BLITZER: But once they’re in …
CALDERON: But not — but not in — if — once they are inside the — inside the country, what the Mexican police do is, of course, enforce the law. But by any means, immigration is a crime anymore in Mexico.
BLITZER: Immigration is not a crime, you’re saying?
CALDERON: It’s not a crime.
BLITZER: So in other words, if somebody sneaks in from Nicaragua or some other country in Central America, through the southern border of Mexico, they wind up in Mexico, they can go get a job …
CALDERON: No, no.
BLITZER: They can work.
CALDERON: If — if somebody do that without permission, we send back — we send back them.
BLITZER: You find them and you send them back?
CALDERON: Yes. However, especially with the people of Guatemala, we are providing a new system in which any single citizen from Guatemala could be able to visit any single border (INAUDIBLE) in the south. And even with all the requirements, he can or she can visit any parts of Mexico.

So...as you can read for yourself...the Democratic party and their media enablers are charecterizing the Arizona law as something it isn't and attempting to whitewash history and Mexican corruption in a far different light.  As I said in the post title hypocrisy...

Response to Mexican President Calderon

Mexico's "Fair" Treatment of Illegal Immigrants

Mexico's President, has slammed Arizona for it's recent law on illegal immigration...that's from a country that has far harsher laws than we do here.  Here are a few of their regulations: 

• An illegal immigrant who sneaks into the country, or fails to file his papers, will face fines, jail, deportation, or a combination of the three.
• An illegal immigrant who forges his documents, or falsifies them by lying when he fills them out, will face fines, jail, deportation, or a combination of the three.
• An illegal immigrant who takes a job faces fines, up to six years in prison, and deportation.
• All immigrants must provide proof of their legal status if the authorities demand it. Failure to do so will result, once more, in fines, jail, deportation, or a combination of the three

But of course...they'd never ever do as we here do...
