Seems like Mexican Presidente Felipe Calderon is getting just as tired of waiting for U.S. immigration “reform” like the rest of us. So much so, that he’s decided to push his own immigration plan and just in time to show it off for an upcoming visit by President Bush.

And even Thalia is down for it.
After making a few adjustments in her calendar, Thalia will participate in the reunion of the ex-members of, the band with which she took her first baby steps in the music industry and this year celebrates its 25th anniversary.
Kind makes you feel old, huh?

LeVine went on to say that some of “these people” often expect the state to subsidize their mistakes when they have large families that they can’t afford to support.
