Well, isn't this something?....

The following was forwarded to me by my good buddy 'Sniper Bill':
.
"On the same day as the defeat of the "test balloon" of "migrant amnesty" in the US Senate, this was found on in a paper via Fox News: Glass House.pdf "
.
"From the document summary:"
.
"Quote:
In brief, the Mexican Constitution states that:
Immigrants and foreign visitors are banned from public political discourse.
Immigrants and foreigners are denied certain basic property rights.
Immigrants are denied equal employment rights.
Immigrants and naturalized citizens will never be treated as real Mexican citizens.
Immigrants and naturalized citizens are not to be trusted in public service.
Immigrants and naturalized citizens may never become members of the clergy.
Private citizens may make citizens arrests of lawbreakers (i.e., illegal immigrants) and hand them to the authorities.
Immigrants may be expelled from Mexico for any reason and without due process."
.
"If this is the standard by which Mexico treats non-citizens, WHY IS VINCENTE FOX PRESSING FOR "HUMANE" TREATMENT OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS TO THE US?"
.
"Please pass this along to all interested parties - and use it against anyone claiming that we need to be more humane towards "undocumented workers".
.
You know, now that I think about it. If Mexico treats it's Constitution, like OUR government treats the U.S. Constitution. Then it probably really doesn't mean what is so clearly written...right?
.
And now, Ladies and Gentlemen, the (former) President of the United States...
.
"In the first place we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the man's becoming in very fact an American, and nothing but an American... There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag, and this excludes the red flag, which symbolizes all wars against liberty and civilization, just as much as it excludes any foreign flag of a nation to which we are hostile...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Hmmmm.......

(Note - The original post had included just the quote from President Roosevelt. Because of the bearing of the additional information, concerning Mexico having arrived after the original post, it was included. However, in so doing I combined the two posts in an incorrect fashion, and deleted the post that had contained comments. Would like to extend my apologies to Omar, with whom there was communication. And, advise that the commentary was not intentionally deleted).
