Vicente Fox Censored in Mexico

From the early-morning AP story:

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Vicente Fox was forced to forego the last state-of-the-nation address of his presidency Friday after leftist lawmakers stormed the stage of Congress to protest disputed July 2 elections.

It was the first time in modern Mexican history a president hasn’t given the annual address to Congress. Instead, Fox handed in a written copy of his report, and his office said he would address the nation in a televised speech later Friday.

A text of the speech Fox had planned to deliver to Congress called on Mexico to mend deep divisions that he said threatened the country’s newfound democracy.

“Whoever attacks our laws and institutions also attacks our history and Mexico,” he said, a thinly veiled reference to leftist presidential candidate Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.

The opposition lawmakers took over the stage in Congress, waving Mexican flags and holding placards calling Fox a traitor to democracy. They ignored demands that they return to their seats, shouting “Vote by Vote” - a rallying cry for Lopez Obrador’s bid for a full recount in the election.

They raised up leather-bound copies of the Mexican Constitution and flashed the victory sign. Fox left without entering the congressional chamber and the session was adjourned.

I knew it, I KNEW it! You can’t have a wussified leader and maintain control of your country! Vicente, you had no balls and couldn’t control immigration, and now you can’t even control your own house. Everything is going to come back to bite you in the ass. You just wait and see.

More from the AP:

The standoff came six days before the top electoral court must declare a president-elect or annul the July 2 vote and order a new election. So far, rulings have favored ruling party candidate Felipe Calderon, who was ahead by about 240,000 votes in the official count.

Lopez Obrador has already said he won’t recognize the electoral court’s decision, and he plans to create a parallel government and rule from the streets.

Fearing violent protests, authorities earlier surrounded Congress for up to 10 blocks with multiple layers of steel barriers; attack dogs in cages, ready to be released; water cannons; and riot police in full protective gear. Entire neighborhoods were sealed off, preventing some of the city’s sprawling markets from opening, and nearby subway stations were shut down.

Police used mirrors and dogs to inspect cars for explosives before allowing them to pass, and opposition lawmakers said police even tried to prevent them from arriving despite their credentials. Some said they were pushed and shoved by authorities.

“It’s completely militarized around here. It is completely illegal, unconstitutional,” Democratic Revolution congressman Cuauhtemoc Sandoval told The Associated Press. “Vicente Fox started out as a president, and is finishing up as a dictator.”

Dictator? Is Jihad Cindy down there working for Obrador? What the FFFFF is their problem? Don’t get me wrong, people, I’m no fan of Vicente, but Obrador is a worse situation, and it seems the people of Mexico are buying his leftists, ‘I’ll-take-care-of-the-poor’ crap. No they won’t! Their poor will continue to stream over our border, work without tax consequences, and send trillions back over the border to the Mexican government.

When will this insanity stop? Please??? Please, God, make it stop. We are a sovereign nation, and we are letting Mexico invade us every day. Figures from Illegal Immigration Counters, these are the statistics today, this moment 3:15 a.m. EST:
