A Gratuitous Insult from the Mexican President
Ordinarily when a foreign leader visits the United States you can expect platitudes, not insults. Yet insults are what Americans got when Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto recently visited California.
The young (48) president, with what one biography touts as “movie-star good looks”, was on his first state visit to the United States since being sworn in as president of Mexico two years ago. His first and only stop was described, with no irony intended, as the “immigrant-friendly [state of] California”, where he held meetings with the state’s Democratic governor, Jerry Brown.
His two-day tour began with a speech, in Spanish, to Mexican immigrants in Los Angeles. And like any good Mexican president running for re-election, “he pledged to make life better for his countrymen living on both sides of the border.” Mexico considers its nationals Mexican regardless of where they live or their immigration status.
Interestingly, when the Mexican president met with members of “his community” before his speech, their reported concerns were (1) economic development in Mexico so that immigration could be “a choice, as opposed to a forced choice”, and (2) cartel violence. Mr. Nieto did not address a group of demonstrators outside his speech, “who said they were upset with his recent move to open Mexican oil and gas reserves to foreign and private investments.”

Says Nieto who’s middle name is ‘Penis’.
Well, that’s a change from tbe usual “Mexican Trash Comes to America, President Talks”.
Went directly to Cali? So that wasn’t a state visit in the classical sense?
Did he bring Sgt. Tahmooressi with him? No?
Throw his ass in jail and arrange a prisoner exchange.
Talking trash about the USA? Uh oh, Obama’s got
competition.
His cartel bosses only let him travel out of Mexico because, like Snake Pliskin, they’ve implanted an exploding chip in his skull they can detonate at the first wrong word.
I have no idea if it’s true. But let’s see how fast it becomes an Internet meme.
The mexican jackass should be appearing in a coloring book soon.
Pena Nieto is just another lily white lefty pushing for amnesty to get votes to keep power.
Dark skinned Mexicans ( Native Mexicans) are hated in Mexico by the Spanish invaders that have all the money and power and they want them gone. Pena Nieto is just another whitey getting that done.
Does this guy look like the guy next door with the weedwacker?:

Jerry should mandate clear garbage bags should be placed at the curb. That way the mexicans can go window shopping instead of digging through dark garbage bins. It’s a humanitarian thing that will make lives better.
Two slimy politicians using the same pawns to get re-elected. Unfortunately, California and the United States get the raw deal.
And WTF is growing on Moonbeam’s nose?

Brown wants to run for President of the US.
Which is quite a promotion from being the Vice President of Mexico.
Hold him until our Marine is released
Irish is spot on, hold the trash until our Marine is released. Worse yet, give Mexico Jerry Brown.
@ mcnorman- Y’mean “better yet?”
Another Mexican that should have been sent back across the borer immediately.
Yes, Boobie…better for us and worse for Mexico. 😉
Let them have Jerry and all his glorious self.
Have him serve the drinks after he cleans the pool.
