Umm…please pay no attention to the fact that Mexico is playing a larger role <\/a>in our president’s border security, immigration, employment and law enforcement policy than his oath of office, the constitution, existing law and the American people’s outrage.<\/p>\n

Because the press isn’t.<\/p>\n

Mexico to lobby for immigration reform<\/strong><\/p>\n

MEXICO CITY \u2014 Mexico plans to begin an aggressive lobbying effort in the United States to secure an immigration reform agreement, the country’s new ambassador in Washington said Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Mexican consulates in the United States will talk with state and federal lawmakers, business chambers, civic organizations and “all actors of U.S. society” who support comprehensive immigration reform, Arturo Sarukhan said.<\/p>\n

“There are few matters so important to the future of this country,” Sarukhan told reporters in Mexico City before departing for Washington.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The ambassador said Mexico has a brief window to convince Washington to approve immigration reforms <\/a>before campaigning begins for the 2008 U.S. presidential election.<\/p>\n

We are going to put into place the same kind of diplomatic and lobbying effort that we did in the early 1990s when NAFTA was being decided,” said Sarukhan, referring to the North American Free Trade Agreement.<\/p>\n

Mexico wants Washington to usher in reforms to create a guest worker program, provide a legal path for millions of Mexicans living in the United States and allow for the reunification of families split by immigration laws.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

President Bush supports giving Mexican migrants temporary work visas he has failed to win support in Congress.<\/p>\n

Note from D.A. – This is absolute nonsense. There is nothing “temporary” about the visas tha president is pushing for…they all lead to a permanent jackpot path to citizenship for the illegals aliens …not to mention amnesty for the illegal employers. <\/em>More from the AP article here….<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
