News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources.

MEXICO CITY – Mexico's escalating political crisis threatens to erupt in the newly installed Congress tonight when leftist legislators angered by the outcome of the July 2 presidential election say they will block President Vicente Fox's state-of-the-nation address.

With Fox vowing he will not be prevented from delivering his last message to the nation before leaving office, his opponents are bracing for a showdown.

“They're looking for some bloodied heads,” said George Grayson, a Mexico scholar at the College of William & Mary. “They want some martyrs.”
