Mexico consul general in Oregon profiled

Janie Har of the Oregonian offers "Mexican consul walks a fine line" about Mexico's consul general for Oregon, Fernando Sanchez Ugarte. Despite having five screens (!) to work with, there is very little of interest to those who've, for instance, watched how the government of Mexico has been able to obtain political power inside the U.S. by sending us people and by their resulting aggressive actions to make sure those people have everything they need to keep sending their money home.

The only slight nod to our reality is this:

About a year ago, critics began protesting the weekend sessions that Sanchez's office hosted around the state for Mexican nationals. The consulate offered information on worker safety and Oregon driver's licenses. It issued "matricula consular" identification cards, which opponents say are used by illegals to get state services... Under pressure, Gov. Ted Kulongoski pulled state agencies from participating at the weekend events. Ever diplomatic, Sanchez shrugged off the move, saying it was Kulongoski's call.

We do, however, receive the urgently important news that:

He is dressed in his usual suit and tie, his brown hair tinged with silver. He wears a pair of stylish gray Gucci eyeglasses, selected by his wife. She's dressed casually in slacks and a white knit shirt, black earrings dangling against her blond hair.

Despite that, on the GushOMeter this only gets a "6", and we suggest that Janie Har and the Oregonian try harder next time. (For reference purposes, OCRegister columnist Yvette Cabrera gushing over (her) Mexican consul scores an "8" on the GushOMeter, although some judges on the panel wanted to give it a "9").

I take pity on those who think the Oregonian is a news source and not just a propaganda vehicle.
