U.S. Senate Funds Wall, Mexico Vows to Not Like Us

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30 (UPI) -- Congress has ordered construction of 700 miles of fence along the U.S.-Mexican border in a move Mexico says will hurt relations between the two countries.

The Senate voted 80-19, with 26 Democrats joining 54 Republicans in support, Friday night before recessing for the fall political campaigns.

President Bush has said he would sign it.

Mexican President Vicente Fox called it "shameful" and compared it to the Berlin Wall, which divided Germany.

Wrong again Fox, you Masonic bigamist. The wall in Germany was designed to keep people "in" against their will and it divided a single country. The wall on the southern border between the United States and Mexico will keep people out and will divide two seperate countries.

Mr. Fox, you're not suggesting that you own Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California, are you?

From Reuters:

"The Mexican government strongly opposes the building of walls in the border area between Mexico and the United States," President Vicente Fox's spokesman Ruben Aguilar told reporters. "This decision hurts bilateral relations EXACTLY! , goes against the spirit of cooperation needed to guarantee security on the common border SAY WHAT?, creates a climate of tension in border communities," he said. That's the way we like it.
