Unbelievable. Congressional Democrats gave Mexican President Felipe Calderon a standing ovation after he attacked Arizona.
…Even Obama’s cabinet members who haven’t read the bill stood up!

The “Hate America First” crowd just gave Calderon a “Standing O” for bashing our 48th state.

Via BreitbartTV:

Have you ever seen anything like this?

“It is a law that not only ignores a reality that cannot be erased by decree but also introduces a terrible idea using racial profiling as the basis for law enforcement.”

Mexico is much more intolerant of illegal aliens than the United States.

UPDATE: Most Americans are pretty upset about this.
Here’s the results so far from a FOX Poll:

 

ADVERTISEMENT

  1. O.K. – Each and every bastard that stood and applauded needs to be tried for treason. Standing with a foreign adversary instead of standing with 60% of the nation! Rot in Hell you bastards.

  2. Wolf Blitzer asked Calderon about immigration from the south into Mexico. His answers were hilarious because they were true. No way we let them in, we check papers, we racially profile them, we deport them.

  3. Republicans should use video of that along with snippets of Mexico’s law for ads in Nov election. Outrageous.

  4. If I ever, ever, entertain the thought of voting for a Democrat in my lifetime, please know that it is probably a symptom of the onset of Alzheimers. The Democrats in this country are dead to me, and I don’t care what sort of camoflauge they try to put on.

    I have voted for some Dems in the past, but you are known by the company you keep, and that company is so anti-American now as to be almost open revolt.

  5. An anti-American as a president of USA
    This was bound to happen

  6. This makes my blood boil. First, this sorry excuse should not even be addressing our Congress. We didn’t elect Calderon.

    Second, he obviously hasn’t read the bill or is intentionally misstating what it does. Likely both.

    Third, every damn one of the Dems that applauded this crap MUST be removed from office ASAP.

    I am so fed up with this anti-American pandering from our own government that I can’t see straight!

    UGH!

  7. He just got the loan of the Obama-Speak teleprompter with the latest Obama-Speak speech loaded in it. It was all lies, which is what we have come to expect from Democrats.

    Since when did the USA manufacturer full auto AK-47s?

  8. Democrats have become a seditious anti-American party that fawns over third world despots and marxists of all stripes.

  9. Need to runs TV ads of Obama saying “America is not defined by its borders” then show pictures of Americans that have been killed and raped by illegal aliens(with a voice over) and at the end play the clip of Obama talking in Spanish.

  10. I believe that the president of Mexico should be deported along with the rest of the Illegal Criminals in this country. What Arizona should do is funnel all illegals to the Greyhound bus station and give them tickets to Los Angeles, Chicago, New york, Boston. dump them all.

    Obama is nothing but a worthless, lowlife , rotten , socialist bastage that deserves nothing short of a prison cell along with his husband Michelle.

  11. Illegals are the only hope the Dems have; them and ACORN.

    Expect lots of fraud come November. The Dem Party depends on it now more than ever.

  12. Fellow Americans..

    We have LIFT-OFF!! Obama is NOT king and Obama is NOT an American.

    Time for our Military to step up to the plate.

  13. Richard Bagg #10 “What Arizona should do is funnel all illegals to the Greyhound bus station and give them tickets to Los Angeles, Chicago, New york, Boston. dump them all.”

    EXACTLY! Maybe that’s plan B if the SCOTUS declares it unconstituional. I bet this would be cheaper for the state of AZ than housing, schooling, feeding, curing and incarcerating the bastages.

  14. Run “personal Ads” against Obama

    “Mr. Obama says that America isn’t defined by borders , i’m glad that he has the luxury to profess such things.. My father and family was killed by an illegal alien because of Mr. Obama’s refusal to recognize that it is his responsibility to protect the American people! He took an Oath and has Failed” (Then Obama speaking in Spanish)

  15. the tea party and the immigration law enforcement people represent a real revolution in us politics.

    and i say to calderon and the dems in congress:

    viva la revolucion!

    we will throw you out in november!

  16. I think about the democrats that I know as individuals and most of them i genuinely like as people, then I read crap like this and my first impulse is “I hate all democrats”. This country is going down from within and we all are watching it.

  17. This is as mad as I have ever been at our government! The nerve. The gall. For the President of Mexico to come HERE, to our Senate, and criticize OUR country. And then to have the Democrats APPLAUD him????? After hearing that State Dept wienie who went to China and apologized for the US. WHAT IS HAPPENING TO OUR COUNTRY?

  18. Geez Louise…..if I ever say I’m voting for a Democrat, take me out to pasture.

  19. Why would they give a standing ovation, if they haven’t even read SB 1070 and don’t know what’s in it? That means they were clapping for the bashing of a state by a Mexico president. So are they taking the word of him other than our own federal and state laws? Are they aiding and abetting criminal activity by non inforcement of our own laws.

  20. Calderon is a GUEST in our country. Does a guest come into a house and insult the host? Simply shows what a low life Calderon is.

    Anyone who applauded is a traitor – plain and simply.

  21. We need to hold a national day of mourning for America, wear sackcloth and put ashes on our heads.

    Pray for the destruction of our enemies.

  22. Looks like the folks from Sesame Street were applauding (even though they haven’t read the bill): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQk9t4YzRXY

  23. Despicable bastards. Too bad we can’t load every Dem on the bus and ship them to mexico without papers.
    The Republicans should have gotten up and walked out instead of sitting on their hands.
    To have this little sh*thead standing in our capital and badmouthing our country for inforcing our laws without one of our legislators speaking up for their people is beyond sickening.
    It’s time we took OUR country back and get rid of the liberal a**holes.

  24. since congress is applauding the fact that we don’t enforce our immigration laws, why don’t we stop enforcing our tax laws. A law is a law, enforce them all or don’t enforce any.

    Years ago the “mexican border patrol” was making a raid near the central american border, one of the suspected illegals made a run for it and was shot in the back. Upon further review the suspected illegal turned out to be a mexican citizen, that’s how Mexico deals with there illegals.

    We don’t need a wannabe illegal (calderon) telling a comfirmed illegal(obama) to lecture the american people about civil rights.

  25. I’d be ok with a Petraeus coup about now. Just take Obama and half the Congress into custody and try them for Treason. Voting for the healthcare bill is offense enough. CIVITAS, Tea parties, AFP and others, all need to remain strong. I think we are in a literal battle for our Country.

  26. What utter sleazebags. They do not deserve to call themselves Americans.

    We have our work cut out for us. GET INVOLVED and let’s take back our country.

  27. Keep focused, these people have to be removed in November. Fight against them like your life depends on it. Truthfully it does. Two more years of this crap and we wont recognize the US.

  28. I think it’s time for a real Tea Party. Like back in 1773.

    Calderon is a corrupt bastard who makes the whole Greek government look like saints.

    Time to tar and feather him and send him back to Mexico.

  29. It is also as mad as I have ever been, at anything.

    I never thought I would live to see the day when the president basically declares war on one of the states, and he and the democratic congress members cheer on outsides who are joining in the war.

    And it’s not just a war against one state, its a war against the people of this country. With a goal of having the people and the states at each others’ throats.

    They have zero respect and utter contempt for the majority of the American people, who they want to squash into irrelevancy.

    I never thought I’d see the day when the president declares us the enemy – and so many times, too! – and sides with other countries over the majority of Americans.

    Course, maybe it has happened before, and I wasn’t paying attention.

    In any case, it is clear that we, the people, are simply an irritation. We must be bulldozed aside. For the illegal votes, I guess.

    I’ve had it with it. I’m so angry I can hardly discuss it. I never thought I’d see the day when I, personally, would be dissed and considered the enemy by the president, but that is exactly the way it is.

    He and the democrats intend to win this, too. They intended to make it so that none of us matters. I’m afraid they will succeed.

  30. We are moving toward civil war. Liberal Progressives and Conservatives are too far apart to agree on anything any more. Progressives hate God, guns, America, Capitalism, Democracy, Catholics, Jews, the military, individualism, freedom, women, minorities and most of all the unborn.
    Conservatives are for God, guns, America, American oil, no illegal immigration, strong defense, Capitalism, less government, less taxes, less abortion – and basically everything Progressive Liberals are against.

    This cannot continue much longer without something snapping.

  31. Well, and I’m afraid that when it snaps, we lose. And don’t tell me we’ve got the guns. They’ve got the government.

  32. Wow.

    Just wow.

  33. Everyone needs to read the country of MEXICO’s laws.

    Even NATURALIZED (not natural born) citizens of Mexico have outrageously restricted “rights”, even banning property ownership.

    NON CITIZENS are not allowed ANYTHING, are CERTAINLY NOT EVEN ALLOWED IN, if found are imprisioned and deported (if they are lucky).

    How DARE the president of Mexico lecture US. and even worse, how DARE Mr. Obama whole heartedly agree with him, using Mr. Calderon as a puppet for the “progressive” agenda.

    The fact that the Democrats in Congress applauded and then stood is beyond revolting.

    Are these people really that dumb? I guess we must conclude they are either total idiots or totally evil.

    This move has got to “take the cake” (and it sure was had to top the other moves we’ve seen in the last 16 months).

  34. The Democrat Party must purge itself of this band of miscreants now in control, or we as a people will have to destroy their party before they, in turn, complete the destruction of this great nation. The Democrat Party in it’s present form must never again be entrusted with power. Starting in November they must be consigned to the radical fringe from whence they came – never to return.

  35. First off, this is all political theatre. This makes the Con-man-in-chief look weak, for he can’t win the argument with his colleagues and citizens, so he invites Mexico’s president to come and showboat and grandstand to try and stick it to everyone who believes that people should be here legally, not illegally.

    Second of all, how can Mexico’s leader have such a poor grasp of english. I mean, even the poor and downtrodden, who come to America trying to get a better life speak better english than he does.

    Lastly, I have said this before, but I will say it again. If America really didn’t believe in Immigration rules and laws, and therefore, if they let in everyone who wished to come to the country, America would be overburdened and implode by the sheer mass of immigrants that would flood in from places like India, China, Russia, Poland, Hungary, Estonia, Vietnam, Indonesia etc. Your population would double in about 10 years, all dependants of course, and if you think your budget shortfalls are signifigant today, imagine if you had all these extra mouths to feed. It would represent a pandemic. Of course Nancy would be grinning from her botox left eye to her botox right eye.

  36. I bet not one chicken-s**t Republican walked out.

  37. At the very LEAST the AZ delegation should have walked out.

  38. Volunteer this November – monitor the voting at the actual counting location or the booth. Watch for fraud. Volunteer.

  39. How much tax payer money was used for this?

  40. Disgusting. Do we know what the Republican response was to this offense?

  41. Is there anyway to send a citizen commission of delegates to Congress for a demand to try for treason those enemies of our Constitution both foreign and domestic???

    What can WE do, since there is NO ONE interested in holding America together in Washington.

    I hate our government. There is !!NOT ONE!! member in Congress worthy of their position. I hate them all.

  42. Alana #31 (I have a daughter named Alana).

    Don’t lose heart. It is maddening – as I’m maddened.

    I believe ObowMao has a much bigger plan. He’s coddling the dictators and dissing our friends so when he turns on us our enemies (ObowMao’s friends) will send in support.

    We are in the battle of our lives – we are in Germany – about 1936.

    There is a whole other army in place already. The citizen soldier that served honorably and is true to his country. We are ready and willing to serve again. We have all we need to be self sufficent. Many were specialists in many varied combat modalities. There are many tropies from old wars that function just fine.
    When things are at thier worst, America is at her best.
    God does love us and we are the last bastion of freedom on the face of the earth. powder is dry.

    Fire every last one of the Dem’s that thought El presedente was worthy of a standing O.

  44. Here’s my question, and one I just can’t get around, because it seems we have all gone through the Looking Glass into Alice in Wonderland land.

    As far as I can tell, from studying this thing, the Arizona law is NO DIFFERENT from U.S. law (or California law, for that matter).

    In fact, they went back to make it even more clear than U.S. law is that profiling was not the case.

    Yet we have this Big Lie. This Big Lie that says cops will be stopping everyone based on the color of their skin – while taking their kids to get ice cream or just anywhere.

    And everyone just accepts that, and stands up in Congress and applauds how horrible that is! With foreign dignitaries!

    Yet – that is not what the law says! The law says no different than what U.S. law says! Am I wrong?

    Somehow we’ve got a president and a congress and a mexican president and media everywhere all spouting endless nonsense, based on – a Big Lie!

    Based on a simple, 10-page bill that anyone can read, and anyone can compare to the U.S. law on which it was based.

    Anybody can do that! I have! Have I missed something in it?

    It’s like they are in a parallel universe or something.

    How can so many people go along with this? How can this possibly be?

    It’s like they aren’t even talking about what’s there! It’s like everyone is looking at – oh, I don’t know, say a dining room table – and they are talking about a backyard swimming pool.

    Or something! I mean, we are all looking at one thing, and they are off on it as if it were something else entirely.

    And this stands? How can this stand? What’s next, are they going to try to tell us that what we thought was a hurricane sweeping through the town was actually a telephone book?

    What am I missing? How could I be missing it? Is the thing REALLY a telephone book, and I’ve just . . . gone crazy or something?

    I know that’s not the case. Which leaves me with, how can this be happening?

    How can we all have one thing, right square in front of our eyes, and yet the president and democrats in congress and the media and everybody keeps telling us it’s something else?

    And worse, people BELIEVE that?

    How can that be? What on earth am I missing?

    It’s like the world has gone nuts. I must be missing something. Yet, no matter what I go over or what I read, I’m not missing anything. Am I missing something?

  45. The Democrat party has taken the side of Mexico against America. They probably envy the kind of oligarchy that Mexico has, where all the little people are really kept in their place.

  46. Alana #48 – “How can that be? What on earth am I missing?”

    It’s called Public Schools and the Department of Education.

  47. Democrats are particularly susceptible to a brain disease scientists call Selective Logic Syndrome. Survivors can be identified by statements such as “I will never vote Democrat Again!” I should know, I voted straight Democrat until I turned 58. I’ll never vote for one again!

  48. Radegunda #49 – The Dems sure are trying to reach the same level of corruption that exists in Mexico.

  49. This reminds me of a scene from the Godfather, when Fredo tries to defend Moe Greene to Michael.
    Michael: “Fredo, you’re my older brother, and I love you. But don’t ever take sides with anyone against the Family again. Ever.”

    Democrats may not like the Arizona law, but they don’t have to be such whiny bitches about it that they will side with a foreign leader against their own country. Disgusting.

  50. Well, Kevin, if that’s so, if people no longer trust their own eyes and brains, if they no longer retain any vestiges of logic and reason, then they are sheer sheep on their way to being sheared.

    If people swallow this crock, then what all will they swallow?

    Will they lose their livelihoods, their rights, and even their very lives, just because the leaders are busy telling them they are actually going to a church picnic?

    I keep thinking I may have missed something in this whole thing. SURELY there is something actually wrong with the Arizona bill. But none of the cases made that there is hold any water.

    J2, I loved the Godfather point.

  51. Clearly this was a totally ORCHESTRATED event with the hypocrite Mexican president being all too happy to play his role. He read the prepared script Obama gave him and the race baiting democrats all stood and applauded at the predetermined moment. A truly disgusting thing to do to try con the American people. Obama is only pouring gasoline on the fire of discontent. We don’t have to worry about liberty loving Americans forgetting to go to the polls in November. This garbage only keeps true Americans fired up about taking back their country in November.

  52. Rush Limbaugh played a clip earlier, it was an interview of Calderon by Wolf Blitzer.

    In answer to a question, Calderon stated that Mexico deports illegal aliens from it’s own territory. It illustrated a blatant contrast to what he is complaining about here in the U.S.

    I think this quote may go down the memory hole, but it was one of the most relevant and revealing quotes of the week.

    *sigh*, i don’t believe we’re waking up in time to

    this reminds me of the time my dear (90 + at the time) gram slapped
    me upside my head in front of company for leaving the toilet seat up..

    when i had the chance, i took her to the side & asked her why she
    did that when she knows i never leave the toilet seat up, she said..

    i slapped you in front of the others so whoever
    is leaving the toilet seat up will get the message..

    for lack of precise terminology, i call that illogical logic (albeit may be another example of illogical logic in & of itself, think China Town.. lol)

    gram was over 90, what’s Obama’s excuse for
    consistently slapping US in front of the world??

    Obama is a f’n Liar, an unpresidential POS , he is trying to scare people and divide people racially for political gain, he is a bastard everyone knows it.

  57. What a treat we have today on TV and radio. Just what I wanted to hear. I hope we are allowed to pay more taxes so that we can invite more rude and impolite speakers to our country. Who, you say?

    That miserable piece of crap, midget sissy, half wit mexican president who came to the US to see our corrupt piece of crap, tall sissy, half wit, lying coward of a president obama and his ugly wife and fat children.

    Yea, tell us all, mex pres, about all the ills of the US. And tell us about the promised land in mexico that has never been anything but a corrupt, drunken, whore town, killing field of a country that cannot even feed its own. What a great place to emulate. How many pages are in the book of great mexican men? men that can’t feed their own children, who drink, fight and whore around so they don’t have to go to their pathetic homes, elect more corrupt men to run their ghetto country and then complain about the US while waving their mexican flag and shouting Viva la Raza. Viva la Raza, what a joke. mexican police, federales, mexican army (now that is a joke by itself) are so corrupt they defy description. what is there to say about mexico that is positive? we can pity the poor, honest, hardworking, honorable people of mexico, few as they may be, that have to live in that squalor with so much against them.

    I would say more but I have to go now, I think preident cabron is speaking to our congress.

  60. Do we have specific names?! Was it all Dems? I live in VA, and both our senators are Democrats. I can’t WAIT to vote them out if they stood up for that insult to our nation! Webb, in particular, should know better, as he is a decorated Marine vet.

    Shameful!

  61. DINORight #65 “Webb, in particular, should know better, as he is a decorated Marine vet.”

    He’s also a DemoKKKrat – so in light of John Kerry and this Blumenthal character – were his decorations earned, or did he buy them at the Army Surplus?

  62. By standing up the Dems showed that they consider illegal ailens to be their constituency.

  63. Barack Hussein Obama, his bulldog faced wife, and his entire administration are a clear threat to the stability and safety of our country – and we need to IMPEACH him.

  64. Roll Call: I want to know specifically who stood and applauded. Every stinkin’ one of ‘em.

  65. neomom:
    “I’d be ok with a Petraeus coup about now. Just take Obama and half the Congress into custody and try them for Treason.”

    I wouldn’t give the MSM a pass on this roundup. It has led directly to this:

    palinfan:
    “Liberal Progressives and Conservatives are too far apart to agree on anything any more.”

  66. I have been really avoiding saying this but impeach him, them………this is nuts and our country is at stake.

  67. Our Government has been infiltrated by American hating Socialist who seek to force their own vision of utopia on this Nation. The Left with the help of scum of the 60′s is now convinced they have the momentum to throw out our history and start over. I have no idea if this is stoppable, the schools, and courts are infected, many in law enforcement are either unable or maybe willing pawns in turning this nation into what some call a nanny state, I see a much more perverse institution. Control of health care, banks, unions, the auto industry, media, and the arts is not life in a free society, but life in a company town on a grand scale. Unions received consideration over investors in the GM debacle, think about that. Those who helped bankrupt the company where allowed to keep their spoils while those who provided the capital lost theirs. The President of the Nation belittles the citizens, demeaning their faith, and constitutional rights, and even the Constitution. Pelosi struts like a conquering invader with the passage of the Health Care Bill, laughing at those she defeated. The class of a harlot prancing around in our halls of Government. Those charged with protecting our Country are aiding and abating in its demise. The leadership within the Beltway is without honor and has no intentions of stopping this invasion. That’s just the way it is. The Tea Party is a small hope but ill equipped to respond to a aggressive assault of the left. The courts will never rule in their favor, and government and the progressive hate machine will just up the attacks against them. Face it they want confrontation, it will be the perfect tool to secure their agenda, if we do not provide it they will manufacture it.

  68. I call it the “Obama Doctrine”

    Promoting dissention between the states, undermining police and siding with foreign government. Summed up in “I don’t know the facts but the police acted stupidly.”

    Constitutional failures to “promote domestic tranquillity” and “providing for the common defense.”

    http://sonoranalliance.com/2010/05/20/arizona-meets-the-obama-doctrine/

  69. No. As despicable as his comments were, Republicans and Conservatives should not have walked out of this speech. Mr. Calderon is a legitimate head of state on an official visit to this country at the invitation of (the miserable empty suit) who is our elected President. We should and must exhibit courtesy and class even if our opponents famously do not.

  70. The next time you step into a voting booth and a Democrat is on the ballot, remember this day of disgraceful conduct by DEMOCRATS in Congress applauding an invader insulting the United States and YOU personally with this propaganda hate speech…and remember what Democrats mean when they are caught in a lie and say they “misspoke”. You can challenge them by asking, “Misspoke? Oh, you mean like Dick Blumenthal did when he misspoke to veterans on Nov. 9, 2008 and said, “I wore the uniform in Vietnam”…?

    Can any veteran now remain a member of so corrupt a party as today’s Democratic Party? They need to take back the party or put it out of its misery at the next election…and Blumenthal still hasn’t won anything yet. November will tell a lot about the character of the voters of Connecticut. Unfortunately, running a World Wrestling Entertainment “impresario” (as Ann Coulter puts it) against him says a lot about the hapless GOP.

  71. By the way, I guess I missed all the coverage for the gala State Dinner they held for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu…huh, Obama walked out and left him sitting in an empty room while he went and ate supper with Michelle and his family and some anti-semites?

    Alana, there was this strange fellow. I think his name was Patrick Henry, who said on March 23, 1775:

    “Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!”

  73. How come the Republicans , or at least the Arizona delegation didn’t walk out?? Bunch of cowards. I don’t care if the guy is a “guest”. if the guest misbehaves, the hosts do not have to tolerate it sitting down. They should go to Mexico and try that brand of free speech there and see what it gets them!

  74. “Roll Call: I want to know specifically who stood and applauded. Every stinkin’ one of ‘em.”

    All of the socialist stood up. Two I recognize in the front were Kerry and Holder.

  75. This is the attitude of the vast majority of Mexicans, the Saul Alinsky media, and the anti border security Dems. You heard Obama just the other day say, without hesitation, that “our countries are not defined by our borders”. That is code word for “open borders”.

    The vast majority of Mexicans, the Saul Alinsky media, and the Dems, have a vengeance towards this country, and anyone that believes in securing our southern border.

    This three headed monster is at war, and the war is not on the drug cartels, MS-13 gangs, the Crips, or the Bloods.

    Their war is on the Tea Party, Americans that want border security, and Americans that want enforcement of our immigration laws.

    You know I’m going to say it, so here it goes…

    If the rest of this country doesn’t get educated and wake up to what’s happening at our southern border, the southwest United States will be our Palestine in the next 20-25 years.

  76. Who the “f” does he think he is or do our leaders think they are letting this happen? Where are the Mexican people; they should want their country improved so that they can enjoy their homeland.

  77. Obama and the Dems probably were hoping some Repubs would break protocol so they could use them as examples of [pick any offense Libs love to exploit]. They are beneath contempt.

  78. Wow, posters and commenters here are really nuts, even by the nuttiest wingnut standards. Nuts! Enjoy your apocalypse.

    Andreas @78.

    That’s true. Thanks for reminding me.

    It’s interesting. I used to think of myself as pretty much a sort of cowardly person, in some ways. That is, I was always careful for my physical safety (being a small female); never was one for making unnecessary waves; always a law-abiding citizen; stayed out of dangerous places; etc.

    And marveled at the bravery of others, like our soldiers.

    But during all of this that has happened in the last two years, I’ve discovered that I’m not nearly the lily-livered person I’ve thought myself to be.

    When we were attacked on 9/11, I realized for the first time that I would be happy to die so that my children could grow up in freedom. For the first time for me, there was something fundamentally threatening; something bigger and more important than anything else to fight for and preserve.

    I realized there were some things that actually were more important than my life.

    And now, especially when talking with people on the left, I strike myself as a much braver person that I ever gave myself credit for; and they strike me as the cowards, not wanting to make waves, or lose anything they prize.

    I guess it’s a matter of being backed up against the wall enough, or something. Finding out that there are some things which, when push comes to shove, you are willing to risk all for.

    At the same time, I’ve discovered that there seem to be a lot of people (especially on the left), who don’t have such a wall. They would not give up their lives for freedom. Or, I guess, much of anything.

    So if nothing else, I’ve learned that I’m better than I thought.

  82. It’s the PEOPLE’s House. Not the MEXICAN people’s house. I generally frown on my house guests ripping into my personal life while simultaneously eating my food, drinking my beer, and enjoying my 52″ LCD television.

  83. Racial profiling? Whatever, for pete’s sake, the majority of illegals are Mexicans, so how do you stop illegal immigration of Mexicans if you don’t ask to see their identification.

    Wow, posters and commenters here are really nuts, even by the nuttiest wingnut standards. Nuts! Enjoy your apocalypse.

    Ripley did you forgot your meds again?

  85. So from what I gather, a minority here wants to same Democracy by fomenting a coup? Brilliant!

    Does anyone in here deny that SB1070 would discourage illegal aliens from coming forward to the police about crimes? Does anyone believe that legal residents/citizens aren’t going to be much more wary of talking to police for fear of a family member being deported? I don’t think you’re racists, I just think you’re pretty ignorant of public policy outcomes.

    imagine if you will three circles. Math class.
    circle on the left is the dem’s circle on the right is the repub’s. the circle in the middle encompassing a large part of the left and a good chunk of the right. That is the progressive movement that has infiltrated BOTH parties and has the same goal in BOTH parties. SOCIALISM.
    dastardly simple and it does explain the willfull suspension of constitutional law and no hue an cry of foul. powder is dry.

  87. pardon: same=save

    as an aside; Does anyone know how an Arizona PO would deal with someone who has a license from a state that doesn’t require a BC and no BC with them?

  88. Who needs a Mexican dictator pushing for open borders when there are Jack Asses in the U.S. Senate.

    Senator Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) said the effort to secure the U.S.-Mexico border is like trying to guarantee that “no narcotics and no guns are going to pass illegally” along I-95, a major highway up and down the Atlantic seaboard.

    “The Mexico-U.S. border, almost 2,000 miles long, is the most frequently crossed international border in the world — 250 million people cross annually, one-half million cross illegally,” Durbin said on Tuesday during a hearing on drug enforcement in Mexico and Colombia conducted by the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Human Rights and the Law.

    “So when there are folks who talk about sealing the border it’s like saying, ‘well, we’re going to go out to I-95 and we’re going to guarantee that no narcotics and no guns are going to pass illegally on interstate 95 today.’ Imagine the challenge that would pose to any governmental unit trying to enforce it,” Durbin, the subcommittee chairman, said.

    Close the 3rd eye and open the other two…

    Have a pleasant day….

  90. This administration has waged a war on the American people. Please do not call the POTUS our American President. Would any true blue American man do what this man has done to our country and way of life? No my friends, he is not an American in mind and heart and spirit or in any other form. He and the Democrats in control have set themselves against us, the American people. He has tried to divide the rich and the poor, white and black, illegal and legal and taken over the bedrocks of our economy. This administration and the MSM are all guilty of treason!
    I am a 4’11″ little woman in Texas, but I refuse to give up. I will fight these people until the day I draw my last breath. And one day, with our Lord’s help and guidance we will once again draw the sweet breath of FREEDOM!
    So help me God…

  94. Allowing poor, illiterate, illegal aliens into this country to work for sub-standard wages is a new version of slavery…It is illegal, immoral and destructive…Once again, the democrats are subsidizing the exploitation of human beings…

  95. The democrats let Calderon come to our house and tell us how we should behave…Obama and the dems were unknowingly “shamed” by Calderon. This will play well in Mexico as it adds to his machismo…Disgusting!

  96. It appears that only the governor of Arizona and Sarah Palin have the cojones to deal with the little brown invaders from the South…John McCain, Lindsey Graham and the rest of Republican leadership…Not so much!

  97. stuff like this makes me worried and scared that theres going to be massive fraud this election year because they dont seem to worried about what they do at all

  98. “terrible idea using racial profiling as the basis for law enforcement.”
    has mexico cleaned up their own hacienda enough that they can feel compelled to chastise us? maybe when they do they can come back. a lot of unsavory things go on at
    border crossing time that you think would concern them. like real criminals.

  99. a 2004 article – the mexican elite. imagine that
    and felipe is criticizing us?

  100. As bad a I thought Arizona law was in structure and in timing, the left is actually screwing themselves over this. They must live in a tone deaf vacuum. By taking the criticism international they have violated the family rule. It goes like this. “I can beat up my brother, but the kid down the street better leave him alone, if he doesn’t he’ll have to deal with me.” In political terms it is called leaving politics at the nation’s shores. Not only did the Obama admin screw that up, they did it with an energy that was frankly embarrassing. The Chinese could give a hoot less about how Arizona handles their border. In fact, the Chinese probably think we are too soft, yet some uber-leftie has to jump up and point at it like it was a tumor.

    Watching this is like watching a triple cross spy movie. Bad move to good move back to bad move. If the Republicans hold their position, the left is going to wrap itself up in knots and screw up the opportunity Arizona gave it to excite the Hispanic voting bloc.

    It is all about demographics and Hispanics are about 14.5 percent of the population. Get them to all vote one way and you can swing a lot of elections.

  101. “Does anyone know how an Arizona PO would deal with someone who has a license from a state that doesn’t require a BC and no BC with them?”

    Read the law. It’s only if someone who has been lawfully stopped and either has no ID or obviously fake or stolen ID who is even questioned regarding citizen status. If you are stopped for speeding without an ID in ANY state, what do you think happens??

  102. Hey ripley #85 its time to quit masterb@ting to pictures of nancy pelosi and janet reno in your mothers basement and go find a job.we all know your type,if you did,nt have a credit card you.d have no sex life.

  103. Rush had it right when he described this useful idiot and hypocrite from Mexico as little more than the dummy for ventriloquist Barack Obama. There is something surreal about watching the President of the United States use a foreign head of state as a prop for his racist, propaganda attacks against the laws of the state of Arizona.

    And I’m guessing Ripley hadn’t read so much as a single comment on this thread before leaving his generic little troll dropping in the middle of it.

    Hezbollah Prepared to Hold the U.S. Hostage

    [In 2006, FBI director Robert Mueller confirmed that the FBI busted a Hezbollah cell that smuggled operatives across the Mexican border. In 2001, Mahmoud Kourani, who according to his indictment is a Hezbollah “member, fighter, recruiter and fund-raiser,” illegally entered the U.S. through Mexico before being convicted for providing material support to Hezbollah. Kourani's brother is Hezbollah's chief of military security in Lebanon.

    Hezbollah operatives also infiltrate the U.S. through the Canada. An
    associate of Kourani smuggled 20 to 30 Hezbollah members into the
    U.S. across the Canadian border.]

    That third eye must be the little, brown, hairy one that’s closest to where he keeps his brain. And it’s doing all the looking.

  109. I thought you people were against BIG GOVERNMENT. so how exactly does beefing up security fall into that plan of smaller government. It seems to me that you people are alright with BIG GOVERNMENT just as long as they use that money to harass torture and kill brown people.

    And to any one who has lost their job to an illegal alien.. Maybe you just sucked at your job.

    Its funny too that this article uses a FOX “You Decide” Poll in establishing that 93% of Americans are angry about this. Its a Fox poll It must be “Fair and Balanced” Right?
