Going to Mexico!

This was in my mailbox this morning.....makes sense!

MR. PRESIDENT, I'M HEADED TO MEXICO


   Dear President Bush:

  I'm about to plan a little trip with my family and extended family,  and I would like to ask you to assist me. I'm going to walk across the border from the U.S. into Mexico, and I need to make a few arrangements.   I know you can help with this.

   I plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports, immigration
quotas and laws. I'm sure they handle those things the same way you do here.
   So, would you mind telling your buddy, President Vicente Fox, that I'm on my way over? Please let him know that I will be expecting the following:

   1. Free medical care for my entire family.
   2. English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I might need, whether I use them or not.
   3. All government forms need to be printed in English.
  4. I want my kids to be taught by English-speaking teachers.
   5. Schools need to include classes on American culture and history.
   6. I want my kids to see the American flag flying on the top of the  flag pole at their school with the Mexican flag flying lower down.
  7. Please plan to feed my kids at school for both breakfast and lunch.
   8. I will need a local Mexican driver's license so I can get easy
 access to government services.
   9. I do not plan to have any car insurance, and I won't make any effort to learn local traffic laws.
  10. In case one of the Mexican police officers does not get the memo from Pres. Fox to leave me alone, please be sure that all police officers speak English.
   11. I plan to fly the U.S. flag from my house top, put flag decals on  my car, and have a gigantic celebration on July 4th. I do not want any complaints or negative comments from the locals.
   12. I would also like to have a nice job without paying any taxes, and don't enforce any labor laws or tax laws.
   13. Please tell all the people in the country to be extremely nice
and never say a critical word about me, or about the strain I might place on the economy.

  I know this is an easy request because you already do all these
things for all the people who come to the U.S. from Mexico. I am sure that Pres. Fox won't mind returning the favor if you ask him nicely.  However, if he gives you any trouble, just invite him to go quail hunting with your V.P.
 
Thank you so much for your kind help.
Sincerely,
ME

I got that one in an email yesterday. That is so strange they have all those rules and then their people don't follow any rules or laws whatsoever here. Helen

I'm with you on this. I think that we as a nation have really let ourselves go to the dogs. Talk about not taking care of number one first hahaha But then, that "Bush" guy did buy the presidentcy so we must deal with his dictatorship a while longer. Maybe the next person to buy his way into office will think more about this country first and then everyone else.
