Does anyone know who wrote this letter to President Obama?
Dear President Obama:
I'm planning to move my family and extended family into Mexico for my health, and I would like to ask you to assist me.
We're planning to simply walk across the border from the U.S. into Mexico , and we'll need your help to make a few arrangements.
We plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports, immigration quotas and laws.
I'm sure they handle those things the same way you do here. So, would you mind telling your buddy, President Calderon, that I'm on my way over?
Please let him know that I will be expecting the following:
1. Free medical care for my entire family.
2. English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I might need, whether I use them or not.
3. Please print all Mexican Government forms in English.
4. I want my grand-kids to be taught Spanish by English-speaking (bi-lingual) teachers.
5. Tell their schools they need to include classes on American culture and history.
6. I want my grand-kids to see the American flag on one of the flag poles at their school.
7. Please plan to feed my grand-kids at school for both breakfast and lunch.
8. I will need a local Mexican driver's license so I can get easy access to government services.
9. I do plan to get a car and drive in Mexico , but I don't plan to purchase car insurance, and I probably won't make any special effort to learn local traffic laws.
10. In case one of the Mexican police officers does not get the memo from their president to leave me alone, please be sure that every patrol car has at least one English-speaking officer.
11. I plan to fly the U.S. flag from my housetop, put U S. flag decals on my car, and have a gigantic celebration on July 4th. I do not want any complaints or negative comments from the locals.
12. I would also like to have a nice job without paying any taxes, or have any labor or tax laws enforced on any business I may start.
13. Please have the president tell all the Mexican people to be extremely nice and never say critical things about me or my family, or about the strain we might place on their economy.
14. I want to receive free food stamps.
15. Naturally, I'll expect free rent subsidies.
16. I'll need income tax credits so that although I don't pay Mexican taxes, I'll receive money from the government.
17. Please arrange it so that the Mexican Government pays $4,500.00 to help me buy a new car.
18. Oh yes, I almost forgot, please enroll me free into the Mexican Social Security program so that I'll get a monthly income in retirement.
I know this is an easy request because you already do all these things for all his people who walk over to the U.S. from Mexico . I am sure that President Calderon won't mind returning the favor if you ask him nicely.
Thank you so much for your kind help.
You're the man!!!
From one of your fans.
Mr Fed Up.

Don't know who wrote it but I applaud the writer. You should forward this to the White House.

The Mexican social security program is the one administered by DC. Mexicans come to the US, drop babies at taxpayer expense, return to Mexico while the infant is in the US hospital, then come back, take the new American citizen home and never spend a dime in a US hospital.
These Leftist idiots who think the use of the term, "teabagger", is cute are typical of brain-dead Democrats who get their info off the Rosie O'Donnel show. There is a serious money drain into Mexico caused by the Democratic Party and ignored by the Black Moses and they want to bash Limbaugh.
No wonder we've become a third world country .

Oh what a tangled web we weave, when we practice to deceive. I'm afraid the criminals are going down, and you won't be able to talk your way out of it that easy. People are waking up to the ripoff on Wall-street and in business, Ayn Rand not withstanding. She was a genius, but she let her emotions get in the way in her personal life. The market will not save you. It has no brain. Can you imagine. She used the dollars sign as her sign? Why not a light bulb or something? Money trickles up, not down, until they have all the land and all the ocean is next. Where will we all go then?
If you can't see the handwriting on the wall as to where all your Bernanke type theories lead, I can't help you, only God can. Oh, that's right you don't believe in God either. Hard to please is it?

After doing a little research, I have determined that this letter was written by one Mister FedUp. I am still researching the ethnicity of the surname FedUp, to determine whether he deserves my courtesy and respect. In the meantime, if he doesn't receive the solace he seeks in Mexico, perhaps he could keep walking to Tierra Del Fuego, keep going, and be eaten by penguins.

Probably Rush Limbaugh, because he is so biased and uninformed, that he may actually believe half of that stuff is true! See, illegal immigrants don't get any of that, because they are illegal. Oh, they might get medical care if they were in such bad shape that they dared enter a hospital, but they would be deported afterwards. But they can't get social security, or food stamps, or welfare, or a driver's license, or income tax credits....
My Bad. I keep forgetting there were no illegal immigrants while George Bush was in office.

It's just one of those scurrilous e-mails floating around, probably written by some misinformed wing nut.
