Fox said the oil find would help both the U.S. and Mexico deal with their respective "migration" problems.In other words, maybe he'll share some of the proceeds with the Mexican people, giving them a reason to stay home.
Funny, the Mexicans will be pulling tons of oil out of the Gulf while we put up with flim-flam tinhorns in Venezuela and the Middle East. The only thing that could scuttle this discovery is an attack by environmentalists. Is there a Mexican version of Jacques Cousteau or Al Gore? Somehow I can't imagine it.
Bush is heading down to Cancun late this month for some golf, sun and world leader meetings. Let's hope he makes things crystal clear with Fox on immigration. While they're at it, and since the new Canadian PM will also be there, they might consider discussing additional ways to put the screws to Hugo Chavez. Canada has a lot of oil shale coming onto the market, and with the Mexicans increasing crude exports, well, let's just say I don't like Vincente Fox very much, but in this case...let it flow, amigo!
