   Or maybe Bush should finally start protecting the borders?

   Pfffttt.. Mexico's GDP (2006) was 1.09 trillion dollars (13th biggest economy, and has a bigger GDP per capita than 65% of the countries of the world). Illegals sent home 23 billion dollars (2006)... So that's just 2% of the total GDP. Don't be such a drama queen. Perhaps you should read more and investigate how he got that rich (hint: a monopoly with high phone rates paid mostly by the growing Mexican middle class). Money sent by illegals usually is used by the poorest to pay for food and basic services, NOT internet, cellphone plans, a telephone line, or other stuff that Slim owns down in Mexico. I'm not endorsing ANY political opinion here, just hate when someone gives false information. Someone as uninformed as you could make a similar but opposite claim: "But Mexican pesos are going to big American companies (example Wal-Mart that makes billions of dollars in Mexico)"
