| Mexican Official Wants Border Eliminated |
| 2004-06-30 |
| A new man is in charge of border relations for Mexico and he has some radical ideas for change at the border with the United States. Arturo Gonzalez Cruz, a 52-year-old Tijuana businessman, says many improvements are needed at the border to benefit trade, including creating more lanes and adding border crossings. Ultimately, Cruz says flat out, he wants to see the border disappear... About 3 million illegal immigrants cross the border from Mexico into the United States each year...The last man who had Cruz’s job resigned quietly after complaining his colleagues in Mexico City didn’t have a good understanding of the border. American elected officials are similarly "challenged" when it comes to understanding what borders mean, especially seeing border control being an integral part of our national security. |

| #3 Well, if the California Democrats ever manage to convince Schwartenegger to sign a bill giving illegals drivers licenses, then motor voter and the ever eager registrars will insure enough new Democratic voters to help this fellow in his quest to eliminate the border by making it irrelevant. |

| #1 In the interest of good relations, I am willing to meet them half way. Take down the fence and replace it with mines and sniper towers. Any illegal who makes it across that gets a lottery ticket, cause it's his lucky day. |
