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. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

CITY (AP) -- Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who has refused to accept his slim loss to President Felipe Calderon in July's election, launched a weekly TV show Tuesday mocking the government's battle against crime and unemployment and promising to promote a law targeting Mexico's monopolies.

"Mexico is the country of monopolies," the former candidate and Mexico City mayor told viewers of "Let the Truth be Told" on Mexico's Azteca TV network, which aired at 1 a.m. local time.

Lopez Obrador said members of his left-leaning Democratic Revolution Party, or PRD, already submitted a bill in Congress aimed at lowering the price of products and services through increased competition.
