BlogBlurb - America, Watch Out!
The Associated Press - you know, "they" - just reported that Mexico officially opposed the construction of a 700 mile border fence *gasp!* along a stretch of our border with Mexico, by reading a statement at the Organization of American States. Based in Washington, DC., this diplomatic organization is comprised of representatives from each of the American states in the western hemisphere.
Being supported by 27 other sovereign nations, "the declaration [was] read aloud Wednesday at the OAS headquarters in Washington, and said the barriers would not solve the immigration problem urging the U.S. government to rethink its position, according to press releases from the OAS and Mexican foreign ministry."
When I first read this statement, I felt a twinge in my gut and said to myself "man, I'm so tired of the United States having a negative image in the minds of other nations when we're only doing what's necessary... what now? But then I read on; would you like to know who those 27 nations were that Mexico has rallied against the evil United States?!
This is going to shake you off your chair. If these nations turn against us, where else do we have to turn? In fact, if we're not careful, they just may deem the U.S. an unsafe global neighbor and impose sanctions and God knows what else to put us in line...
In an incredible, indelible, undeniably intimidating show of unity against our "shameful Berlin Wall" (as Vicente Fox calls it), the following nations are holding our necks against the wall with a warning: *shiver*
Antigua
Argentina
Barbados
Belize
Bolivia
Brazil
Our good friends, Colombia
Costa Rica
Chile
Ecuador
Stable little El Salvador
Poor little beat up Granada
Guatemala
Guyana
Haiti, with all their integrity
Honduras
Jamaica
Nicaragua's quasi-communists
Panama
Paraguay
Peru
The imposing San Kitts and Nevis
San Lucia
San Vicente
Suriname
Uruguay
And of course, the always dependable foe, Venezuela.
President Bush, you have a "coalition of the willing" that have stood against you; beware your actions and be quaking in your Tejano snake skin boots every time you see an illegal immigrant.
They have the world behind their cause!

Public Agenda's latest Confidence in U.S. Foreign Policy Index (http://www.publicagenda.org/foreignpolicy/index.cfm) shows there is a marked dissatisfaction on immigration. Nearly eight in 10 Americans give the United States low grades (http://www.publicagenda.org/foreignpolicy/foreignpolicy_reportcard.htm) for protecting U.S. borders from illegal immigration. And eight in 10 worry (http://www.publicagenda.org/foreignpolicy/foreignpolicy_worries.htm) that it may be too easy for illegal immigrants to come into the country.
