                              PREACHER FOX

  (Mr. POE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. POE. Mr. Speaker, a hypocrite always practices what he preaches 
against. And while Vicente Fox took a whirlwind tour of the United 
States acting like an old-fashioned revival preacher preaching open 
borders, trying to intimidate Americans into allowing the illegal 
invasion of his people down Mexico City way, the gospel of truth comes 
out.
  Mexico, it seems, wants its southern border locked down. The Mexican 
Government says too many illegals are sneaking into Mexico, especially 
those Guatemalans. The Mexican Government says that illegals are taking 
jobs from Mexican citizens. Sound familiar?
  While Mexico is demanding open doors into the rest of North America, 
they have got their own dead bolt on the door to the rest of the world.
  Preacher Fox, practice what you preach. Your immigration laws are 
even tougher than America's. Why don't you open up your southern border 
to illegals? And meanwhile, preach to your own people that illegally 
entering the United States is just wrong. Quit trying to be self-
righteous and telling America what to do.
  The words of hypocrites are seldom heard, especially the words from 
preachers.
  And that's just the way it is.
