           CONDEMNING MEXICAN PRESIDENT FOR LEGALIZING DRUGS

  (Mr. KELLER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. KELLER. Mr. Speaker, Vicente Fox, the president of Mexico, is at 
it again. Yesterday, he said he would sign into law an irresponsible 
law legalizing the possession of drugs. As a result, millions of 
American young people who travel to Mexico for summer vacation will now 
legally be able to use cocaine, heroin, ecstasy, and marijuana.
  How much is okay? Two ecstasy pills, four joints, four lines of 
cocaine and 25 milligrams of heroin are now all allowed, according to 
Vicente Fox. Who is advising this guy, Courtney Love?
  What a year President Fox is having. Earlier this year, his Mexican 
government provided maps to illegals to help them cross our borders. 
Then, his Mexican military soldiers got caught providing an armed 
escort to Mexican drug smugglers into Texas. Now he wants Congress to 
reward millions of illegal aliens with amnesty and permanent 
citizenship so they can earn money here and send it back to Mexico.
  Vicente Fox says he's our friend. With friends like these, who needs 
enemies?
