(Mexican President) Calderon said the Arizona law, which is meant to stem the tide of illegal immigrants into the state, primarily from Mexico, "introduces a terrible idea that uses racial profiling as a basis for law enforcement."

"I am convinced that a comprehensive immigration reform is crucial to securing our common border," the Mexican president told lawmakers in both parties gathered for the speech. "However I strongly disagree with your recently adopted law in Arizona."

The socialists applauding should be used as a video by campaign opponents.

Particularly given the fact that a majority of Americans support the law.

History was made today. The supreme commander of an invading army dictated terms to Congress.

Republicans are not warriors.

They don’t even know it is a war.

It sure felt that way when I was watching it on TV.

I thought an oath was given to protect and to serve the constitution of the US? No oath this time around? Did these guys miss that day?

RINOS are not our only problem....there were plenty of Conservatives in OUR House today.

And those Conservatives did nothing.

How dare he come into our country and attack our laws. He should be run out on a rail along with the pretender in chief. And, the demonrats applaud him. God help us.

Too bad the Republicans did not have the cojones to create an international incident and walk out on Calderon’s statement.

What is Mexico gonna do about the hypothetical insult?

Invade?

Oy. So mad, AREN’T should be ARE!!! Why are the Republicans even there? And if they are, I would like to see each and every one of them reading a book, texting/playing with their cell phones, anything during the speech. This bandito from Mayheeco wants to come into MY country and insult us time and again, while that piece of crap in the WH agrees?!?!?!?!
