Gus > And I'm curious to know what jobs there are that "workaholic" white gringos won't do

I don't think the term "workaholic white gringos" aptly describes the Mexican illegal immigrants -- as I see them, they're hungry -- anyway, hungry enough to do unpleasant or menial work for low pay -- work which apparently Americans won't do. And I imagine that's what Vicente Fox meant, only he expressed himself in a very politically incorrect way -- but definitely a way that he knew would appeal to the right-wing white audience he was speaking to.

I can see why you feel South African expats would be happy in Mexico. Maybe I should learn Spanish?!

Gus, what is your opinion about this?

>>Did We 'Capture' Saddam - Or One Of His Doubles?

Sajina claims that the person she encountered was not her husband, but his double. If someone were to say for sure that it was not insinuation, it would have been easy to believe the wife with a 25-year experience. It is also possible to assume that Saddam has simply changed since the day of his sons' deaths, June 24 2003. This however is highly unlikely. In case we believe Hussein-s wife, all DNA testing of the ex-Iraqi leader should be considered a mere fake. Overall, today there remain more questions then there are answers.<<
