The first I heard of this was from the mouth of Vincente Fox: http://aftermathnews.wordpress.com/category/resistance/ Vicente Fox admits to wanting a North American Union on Jon Stewart Show Stewart’s applauding audience believes flooding the US with illegals, surrendering our sovereignty to Mexico (and vice-versa) and ripping up the US constitution is a good idea apparently [video] So, if all this giant conspiracy with George Bush involved really exists, why haven't all the Democratic candidates made a major issue of it? I just heard about it and did some research. As it was Clinton, as I recall, who signed NAFTA, how can Democrats tactfully pursue this issue? I suspect we will hear more about this issue as time goes on because of Fox's comments being broadcast. Vincente Fox seems willing to tell all: http://www.billmaher.com/?page_id=213 MAHER: Oh, if only we would have – if only we would have presidents just disappearing. [laughter] But…but I – I know you have very mixed feelings about President Bush. I know you are friendly with him because he came and visited you during his early days in office. That was a very gratifying thing for you. But that doesn’t really stack up against some of his giant boners like the Iraq war, does it? [laughter] FOX: No. MAHER: [overlapping] And – and you’ve called him a “windshield cowboy”? What is that? FOX: Yeah. You know, in that visit, I noticed when I took him to see this beautiful stallion that I ride, and having rided [sic] all my life since I was two years old, I noticed that he was a little bit trembling, a little bit afraid of touching the horse. [laughter] And then I invited him to ride it. He said, “No, no, no, security would not allow me to ride that horse.” [laughter] [applause] And then…and then I paid a visit back here in Texas, and he invited me to go around his farm there. By the way, a very modest home that he’s got there. And he was driving this pickup, beautiful pickup. And so I could notice that he knows how to drive a pickup, but he doesn’t know how to ride a horse. [laughter] [applause] MAHER: Well…and – and a couple— FOX: He’s a good friend, huh? MAHER: Yeah, well, if you like a friend like that, sure. [laughter] But, I remember a couple of years ago, at one of the correspondents’ dinners in Washington, his wife, Laura Bush, got up and told a story— FOX: [overlapping] Great lady. MAHER: What? FOX: Great lady. MAHER: Great lady. Well, sure, look who she’s standing next to. [laughter] But – but she said that – she told a story that—[he laughs]—and she said that she remembered an instance where the president – before he was president – tried to “milk” a horse. [laughter] And she said it was a male horse. [laughter] Which is an unsettling image on either side of the border, I think you’d agree. [laughter] http://tpmelectioncentral.com/2007/0..._of_horses.php Vicente Fox: "Cowboy" Bush Is Scared Of Horses By Eric Kleefeld - September 21, 2007, 9:20AM Here's another fun detail from Vicente Fox's upcoming autobiography: He says that despite President Bush's cowboy image, the man is actually scared of horses. Fox tells the story of the two men meeting in Mexico in early 2001, in which he invited Bush to ride a large horse. Bush nervously backed away. "A horse lover can always tell when others don't share our passion," Fox wrote. Fun fact: Bush's Crawford ranch, purchased in 1999 in order to help create a down-home image for his presidential campaign, does not have any horses. Fox was the first President of Mexico in twenty hears that was not part of the corrupt party that held power there for so long. But they aren't dead yet: http://aftermathnews.wordpress.com/category/resistance/ http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/...n3365380.shtml Protestors Tear Down Vicente Fox Statue Statue Of Former Mexican President Destroyed Right Before Dedication BOCA DEL RIO, Mexico, Oct. 14, 2007 (CBS/AP) Opposition protesters have torn down a bronze statue of former Mexican President Vicente Fox, just hours after it was erected this morning. Workers put up the commemorative 10-foot statue before dawn in the city of Boca del Rio, in Veracruz state. But by midmorning a crowd of about 100 angry protesters began egging the statue, fastened a rope around its neck and pulled it to the ground. Many were members of the centrist Revolutionary Institutional Party, which governed Mexico for much of the 20th century until Fox (of the conservative National Action Party) won a presidential election in 2000. The statue's inauguration ceremony, scheduled for tomorrow, has been canceled. |
