Outgoing Mexican President Vicente Fox has condemned it as "shameful."

I think folks will like this above knowledge.

Hutchison had hoped to offer an amendment that would have allowed the Department of Homeland Security to determine location and need for border fencing after consulting with state and local officials. But Senate leaders decided not to allow amendments to avoid sending the measure back to the House, where it would have likely been rejected.

Apparently some Senate leaders wised up.

House and Senate leaders assured Hutchison that they would allow modifications to accommodate her concerns after lawmakers return for a so-called "lame-duck" session after the elections./i>

uh-huh. We'll see about that.
