Mexican Foreign Minister Claudia Ruiz Massieu said in a speech on Monday that America needs to bring down the wall of racism and fear that has made immigration, legal and otherwise, a difficult prospect for incoming Mexican migrants.
Her calls for a more tolerant and accepting American immigration policy fall flat against the reality that America already has porous borders. Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, of illegal immigrants cross into America every year. Barack Obama extended amnesty for millions of them last year, and the Democratic presidential candidates have made promises or hints of promises at reforming the naturalization process to make the path to citizenship easier on legal immigrants.
Mrs. Massieu seems to be making empty calls for reform from a United States so far past the point of no return on illegal immigration that the raising the subject is considered political suicide for anyone seeking to make the process any easier than it already is.

Hypocrisy

It is not racist to enforce immigration laws! Mexico must stop promoting this lie and take care of her citizens. It is their disgrace that their citizens have to leave for a better life.
You peopile cost this country too much.you are not benifical to us.
She just wants those money orders and checks to keep coming south!
And they reserve the right to take your property without paying you a dime.
No way Josita!
And Mexico,embraced the Inmigration ?
What racism?
