Mexican official pleads for US welfare for illegals

In an AP story, the interior secretary of Mexico, Santiago Creel, is quoted as saying the following:
  • "It's [the Arizona ballot initiative passed recently which restricts government services for illegals] incompatible with human rights and does a disservice to both countries, the United States as much as Mexico,"
Restricts human rights? How about the rights of Arizonans and Americans to provide for their own families instead of illegals?

A disservice to the United States? Because the lazy American welfare bums might have to take the restaurant jobs or pick lettuce?

I can fully understand the desire of the Mexican government to ship the sick and unskilled Mexican people here, but what I cannot understand is the Republicans who are willing to go along with the scam. Doubtlessly, some of the GOP Congress people think their "base" will vote for them no matter what, but they are wrong.

Americans are getting more tired all the time of funding the education, health care, and welfare checks of illegals. I'm tired of funding those programs for everyone.
