Jose Jacques Medina in D.C. to demand amnesty
Sylvester (CNN): Mexican officials are pressing to keep an open border that has allowed millions of illegal aliens to filter into the United States. Members of the Mexican Congress are visiting Washington and Chicago this week to push for a U.S. guest worker and amnesty program.
Medina (through translator): We are starting our business here in Washington, looking to integrate ourselves in the solution of the immigration problem. We don't want to see ourselves as a problem. We are here as a solution.
Krikorian (CIS): This is a direct interference in American domestic policymaking. And it's part of a long pattern of Mexico's violation of our sovereignty in the area of immigration.

On the November 14 edition of his CNN Headline News program, Glenn Beck interviewed Rep.-elect Keith Ellison (D-MN), who became the first Muslim ever elected to Congress on November 7, and asked Ellison if he could have five minutes here where were just politically incorrect and I play the cards up on the table. After Ellison agreed, Beck said: I have been nervous about this interview with you, because what I feel like saying is, Sir, prove to me that you are not working with our enemies. Beck added: Im not accusing you of being an enemy, but thats the way I feel, and I think a lot of Americans will feel that way.")
