[AnaAndDaniel 0]

what's the fuss about? canada/usa/mex = north american union or sumtin like that anyways. just look at that super highway being built from mex through texas upt to canada (not to mention I-5 all ready does via california oregon wash but i digress). then we will just make the dollar official currency in canada and mex and wala NAU > EU.

aren't we bad assssses?

so chill folks, drink your absolut, tequila along with some horton donuts.

I love, love Mexican food. That's gotta count for something.

but what do YOU consider Mexican food? Taco Bell (yo quiero Taco Bell)? Tex-Mex?

SoCal has some good Mexican food and New York has none. I've lived in both places.

Ain't that the truth.

I plan to eat some today - perhaps wash it down with an absolut vodka and tonic.

The distillers of Sweden's Absolut vodka have withdrawn an advertisement run in Mexico that angered many U.S. citizens by idealizing an early 19th century map showing chunks of the United States as Mexican.

...

Defending the campaign last week, Absolut maker Vin & Spirit said the ad was created "with a Mexican sensibility" and was not meant for the U.S. market.

...

A war between Mexico and the United States from 1846 to 1848 started with Mexico's refusal to recognize the U.S. annexation of Texas and ended with the occupation of Mexico City by U.S. troops.

At the end, Mexico ceded nearly half of its territory to the United States, forming the states of California, Nevada, Utah and parts of Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico and Wyoming.

Mexicans remain sensitive about the loss and the location of the border.

The article says they're "sensitive" about the border. So I chalk up all the illegal entries to emotional problems.

We don't need a fence at the border. We need shrinks.
