What I said about 'ol Vicente is indeed true, he is exporting his problems to

Emigration is the problem of the Mexican economy. It has been a problem for
many decades. As the agrarian policies of the 30's reduce the size of family
farms each generation by subdividing already small holdings among children,
many rural poor either migrate to big cities or to the US. Mexico City, 6
million in 1060, is now 23 million, with most of the growth due to internal
migration from the farms of rural Mexico. This is not Fox's problem, it is a
problem of a less wealthy nation on the border of a wealthy one.

Illegal immigration is one of the most serious problems we face here in
the USA.


The problem is one of enforcing our existent laws and controlling our
borders. Right now, lax enforcement is like a big "welcome" sign. It is our
fault, not that of Mexico.

I agree with many of your points, however, Vicente Fox is doing absolutely
nothing on his side of the border to alleviate any of the problems that plague
Mexico, nor is he doing anything to stem the tide of illegals into the USA.

Mr. Rickets spoke earlier of riots here in the USA due to 'poorly' conducted
elections, my feeling is that the riots will break out due to illegal
immigration.

The time is coming, and as a Nation, we must all work to stem the tide.

The number of illegals here has probably reached the number of unemployed in
this country, and it is time to do something about it.

I said it before, and I say it again... Vicente Fox is a stinking piece of
Mexican ****.

I firmly believe that to be true, and you have presented no facts to refute my
claim that he is actively engaged in exporting his 'problems' to the USA. Why is

It is not the job of a free country to restrict the exit of its citizens or
residents. Restricting migration or emigration produced the Berlin wall.

Vicente Fox and the Mexican government have no obligation to prevent
emigration, as that would be a restriction of the rights of the citizens of
any free nation. It is the responsibility of each nation to decide how to
handle those who want to come in, not those that want to leave.

For these reasons, I can not produce any facts because there is no
requirement that any nation prevent its citizens from leaving.

LOL, that may indeed be the case, however Vicente Fox, as I've stated already is
in the business of exporting his 'problems' to the USA.

What we need to do here in the USA is to ensure that Mr. Fox gets his 'problems'
back, in one condition or another.

Then perhaps, he will attempt to create better conditions in Mexico.

It's time to get tough.

You both have a major perception problems in your descriptions.

There are no national programs (that I know of anyway) that even try to
achieve a 100% rational + compassionate approach to the problems the US
and world face. Hate and irrationality and downright stupidity come
washing in tsunami waves from both sides. Anybody with an objective
bone in his thick skull can hear it, day in and day out, relentlessly
pouring out of "got mine, now get out" Limbaugh and those Marxist
ninnies on Air America. I have not yet heard Al Franken's show, and I
generally like his perspective (with some reservations), but the guys
on Fox and *some* of the Public Radio guys are just as warped.

Commercial radio is flaccid...no worthy perspective at all

There is no decent across-the-board reporting on national airwaves
these days. A person just has to listen to as much as he can stomach,
and try to sort it out himself. Hopefully, the people of the US and
world are still intelligent enough to achieve this...
Although I doubt that too.

Mexico is much stricter than the US, but English content seems not to be

When I was at XTRA that was true. It probably still is. I had
interaction with the President at the time and liked him, but couldn't
imagine anyone, except Castro, speaking for hours at a time.

Is it considered cussing if the words don't exist in the country's
official language?

Under Noble, that would have been forbidden because we followed both
country's regulations. Things happen. Wardrobes malfunction. I suspect
most stations have had various slips of the tongue the delay didn't
catch.

At WOR we had a food fair called "The Taste of New York" held at
Lincoln Center. We decided to do the Joan Rivers Show live. Various
restaurants set up booths with samples and it cost $10 to get in. Joan
began the show with a comment about how great it was to get free food.
A woman in the audience piped up and said they paid for it. Joan's
response: "You paid $10 to eat this sh*t?" It was so close to the open
of the show the delay hadn't built up and it went on both WOR and the
network.

Joan had a chat with management the next day. Fortunately there were
so many people there making so much noise, the vendors never heard it.
The food was terrific.

I've listened to some Air America programs (limited, admittedly),
hoping for a demonstrably solid front to to counteract the blatant
follishnes sof the Limbaughs out there. I tend to the left of center,
but I am not truly a "leftie" on average...I want to hear some common
sense and rational approaches to problems that this nation faces that
the conservative cuckoobirds cannot even begin to fathom in their
jingoism. After reading some of Al Franken and simply seeing the
pathetic showing of the Right's arguably elected leader, I was hoping
AA would get to it.

I was disappointed, that's all. They're too far left to be believable,
even when they are correct. Their socialistic tendencies cloud the
issues. They even advertised themselves as being "red" (in the
communist sense) for God's sake - who is going to buy that?

If you want to bring a nation together in a state of rationality, you
don't find ways to tear it farther apart, even when you tell the hard
truth - the Americans obviously don't really want to hear it, or else
cannot fathom it because it is beyond them. You offer simple realistic
solutions that appeal to the middle-class, sometimes compassionate,
sometimes tough, but always smart and sober, that middle America can
get into. *Nobody* is doing that.

I haven't listened to any of those guys on either side for awhile out
of disgust - maybe it has changed, I don't know. I do know that
something needs to close the rift in the USA, and crackpot radio isn't
going to do it.

You need to start listening to stations to the left of 92.0 FM if you expect
to hear factual discussions of issues.

Commercial radio, as long as they have zero obligation to broadcast in the
public interest anymore, will never do any programs that they don't feel
will sell regardless of how important the issues are to their community or
how well documented the content.

Crackpot radio isn't going to have any effect at all. Radio is not
where people form their political or social opinions. At his highest
point, Talk Radio's most listened to personality had a 4 rating
(percentage of population). Simple aritmetic tells us that 96% of the
population was doing something else. Most of that 4% were listening
because he used to be funny or to reinforce what they already
believed.

I really wish Talk Radio had that kind of influence. I simply doesn't.
The only influence it's had on you is to make you turn it off. It's
intended at entertainment. If you make your voting decisions by
listening to Sean Hannity, you'd probably be willing to allow a
proctologist to perform brain surgery on you. A proctologist would be

If it had no effect on you, I wouldn't worry about the efffect it has

Right Wing Radio is a very important piece of the Republican Noise
Machine. They use it to program automatons and Zombies who then
dominate the days water cooler conversations.

I just think it's creepy the way the same talking points make the

I find Air America relies more on actual facts and humor than the
Wingers, who tend to work fear and half-truths to anger people. I'd
rather laugh than be ****ed-off all the time.
