Illegal aliens are deciding to “self-deport,” which is the best possible outcome. Of course, Reuters treats this as some kind of cruel hardship which is the fault of the gringo Bush. But here’s the paragraph that jumped out at me (my emphasis):

“It is still just a thought, although we are preparing to leave,” said Ernesto Garcia, a carpenter from Caborca in northwest Mexico, who stood in line at the Mexican consulate in Phoenix this week for paperwork that will allow him and his family to resume their lives south of the border.

So, you can run across the border south to north with no papers, no fence, no restrictions, but to get back you need papers from the Mexican government??!!
