[Peace-discuss] Que tal Vicente Fox?

[Phil Stinard]

Julio and I were discussing Mexican president Vicente Fox's recent gaff in 
which he said that Mexican workers are willing to do jobs in the US that 
even blacks wouldn't do.  My comment was that no one in the US would change 
their minds about Fox because of this.  Right-wingers already love him, and 
leftists hate him.  I continued, "However, if Fox had said, 'Mexican workers 
are willing to do jobs in the US that even Condoleezza Rice wouldn't do,' 
things would be different."

Julio's reply:  "Condoleezza Rice isn't black."

PS -- Que tal Newsweek?  My prediction:  Newsweek will either go out of 
business, or it will become another US government lap dog.
