Who's Dressed Better? The First Spouse, or Whitney Houston?
Who looks better, in context?
The current first spouse, wearing a costume to a state dinner…or Whitney Houston in “The Bodyguard”, wearing a similar getup while performing a song?
Question: How appropriate is it for Mexico to question US law enforcement policy, when Mexico's law enforcement and immigration policies are at least 10 times more invasive and harsh than America's?
We believe this current White House should not hold any more state dinners — because they lead to disasters of epic proportions.
The India state dinner was an amateur-hour affair that embarrassed the nation, due largely to the incompetence of Desiree Rogers, the prima donna who’d rather spend the night partying down than standing up to do her job and ensure a smooth and respectable event.
This was followed by the Mexico state dinner on Wednesday, which produced the remarkable remarks by Mexico’s president criticizing American law enforcement policy, while claiming there are no borders between the United States and Mexico.
Mexico’s president proved himself to be a schizophrenic at best, and a damn fool and liar at worst — because he’s ignoring Mexico’s own immigration and law enforcement policies, as pertains to the third world countries that share Mexico’s own southern border.
When Guatemalans, El Salvadorians, Costa Ricans, Columbians, you name it, try to filter up through Central America and enter Mexico, the way Mexicans have been invading the United States, these people are met with a harsh rebuke by Mexican border troops. If they make it into the country, Mexican police hunt them down, then Mexico jails and ultimately deports them. It’s routine for Mexican authorities to demand paperwork from whomever they want to see paperwork from.
Mexico’s president has no problem with this.
He also has no problem exporting all the Mexicans he doesn’t especially want in his own country, so that they can be someone else’s welfare drain.
Mexico should be humiliated that, as a country, it’s so terrible people risk their lives swimming rivers, crossing deserts, and breaking the law to leave.
It is highly inappropriate for Mexico, and its president, to come to the White House and criticize American immigration and law enforcement policy.
It’s downright repugnant that the current American president has the audacity to stand there and agree with him — a foreign leader — as he trashes our country.
We don’t know what Obama hopes to achieve by continually attacking the country that elected him president. Maybe he really is running for UN Secretary General and sees this stint at 1600 Pennsylvania as just a stepping stone to becoming some sort of “President of the World”.
Why else would he keep behaving so unpresidential by attacking America every chance he gets?
