Mexico: Our Closest Enemy

The Mexican government is threatening to use international courts to stop Arizona law from limiting public benefits and voting eligibility to legal residents of the U.S.

Mexican officials have repeatedly complained about Proposition 200, which went into effect Tuesday. The statewide measure denies most taxpayer benefits to illegal aliens and requires state workers to report applicants for such benefits who may not be eligible. It also requires anyone registering to vote in the state to show proof of citizenship and bring a government-issued ID to the polling place.

AP reported Derbez expressed regret that, according to polls, about 40 percent of Mexican-Americans in Arizona supported Prop. 200. The measure passed with 60 percent of the vote.

Can you believe the audacity of these people? An American border state takes action to defend itself against bankruptcy caused by such criminals, and the Mexican government tries to thwart this reasonable endeavor.

Here's another beautiful story, on similar subject matter.

MSNBC.com research and government reports suggest hundreds of thousands of American citizens are in the same spot -- unknowingly lending their identity to illegal immigrants so they can work. And while several government agencies and private corporations sometimes know whose Social Security numbers are being ripped off, they won't notify the victims. That is, until they come after the victims for back taxes or unpaid loans owed by the imposter.

An undocumented immigrant worker managed to use Steve Millet's Social Security number for more than 10 years before the incident was discovered. Millet said the imposter managed to obtain a dozen credit cards, buy a car, and even a house using the stolen number and his own name. All the while, that imposter paid taxes, paid into Social Security, and took out loans using the stolen Social Security Number. All of those agencies had a record of the abused SSN; none bothered to tell Steve Millet.

Our government is trying to scare everyone to death about Islamic terrorists. Certainly, they're a serious problem, and should be dealt with. The terrorism situation--as it affects us domestically--is only a corner of a bigger picture. The immigration issues plaguing this country are a far more nefarious, corrupting problem. As I have said before, Mexico is not our friend. Its government is making active, unsubtle attempts to destroy our way of life. It has declared war on the United States, whether our government admits it, or not.

If we fall, it won't be due to the efforts of Islamic terrorism. America faces a much greater threat, right here, at home. Our "leaders'" response? Do nothing. Just ignore it. Be obedient little drones and focus on winning the "War on Terror." Good grief.
