The Nation Magazine reported “Beyond the undiplomatic opinions … the WikiLeaks cables revealed the astonishing degree to which the United States exercised its power and influence at the highest levels of the Mexican government. In some cases it appears that an essential part of the decision-making process on matters of internal security is actually designed not in Mexico City but in Washington. For Mexicans, the cables have reinforced once again that famous adage ‘Pobre Mexico: tan lejos de Dios, y tan cerca de los Estados Unidos.’ Poor Mexico: so far from God and so close to the United States.”

What is the necessity of this little excerpt? First, Mr. Acuņa's "Pinches Gringos" mentality is showing...pretty strongly. Second, I don't think Mexico City should be trusted for anything. And third, it's not like people care about what Navarrette writes.
