This morning I read two articles in The New York Times. One was about the growth of Immigrants by 16%. The other was an interview with the Mexican president.

Despite some videos shown on television proving that some ballot boxes were opened on July 11, Mr. Fox and Mr. Calderon refused to accept the facts.

Usually Mr. Fox statements had been frivolous and a source of scorn; for instance he had said:

“¿Yo Por qué?” (Why me?)When asked his opinion about a judicial conflict between two Mexican TV networks.

"Yo sí necesito mi pensión porque no he robado, yo sí la necesito, de eso vivo (...), porque regresar ahorita a buscar chamba está cañón, está grueso"("I really need my pension because I haven't stolen(…) To return right now to look for a job, it’s knotty, it’s uphill…”) Entrevista concedida a J. López Doriga el 13 de febrero de 2006

“You eat, and then you leave” ("Comes y te vas"), to Fidel Castro, when inviting him to the Summit of Monterrey

I remember another Mexican president talking about his critics saying:

“I Neither see them, nor do I hear them”. Ni los veo, ni los oigo

Since last April newspaper denounced the control of the Mexican electoral institute’s computer system by the company of Calderon’s brother-in-law.

Mr. Fox said “There is nothing hidden”. Indeed, there is nothing hidden, there are videos and tapes. There are also newspaper informing on the facts.

Court's Decision a Setback For Populist López Obrador

By Manuel Roig-Franzia

Washington Post Foreign Service
Sunday, August 6, 2006; Page A12

…The decision was announced just before noon by Chief Magistrate Leonel Castillo, who appeared in a dark suit before a packed chamber in the tribunal's headquarters in southern Mexico City. Few here expected Castillo to announce a full recount. A month before the election, he told Milenio magazine that the court would reject any recount request, a statement that would likely have led to demands for a recusal in a U.S. case…

A local newspaper informed last may 9 about the new wave of Mexican immigrants, no more peasants, but immigrants with degrees. Even Calderon, the notice pointed out, frequently said he has a cousin and a brother in law in the United States. As Mr. Fox said in one of his interviews “If people don’t get a job here in Mexico, they go abroad to found it”.

New Data Shows Immigrants’ Growth and Reach

By RICK LYMAN

Published: August 15, 2006

The number of immigrants living in American households rose 16 percent over the last five years, fueled largely by recent arrivals from Mexico, according to fresh data released by the Census Bureau.

...More of America’s immigrants, legal or not, come from Mexico than any other country, an estimated 11 million in 2005, compared with nearly 1.8 million Chinese and 1.4 million Indians…

As a comic said on a TV program:

“No se vale que el interés de un partido esté por encima de los intereses de un país”

It's not fair that a political party's interests be above the country's.
