President Calderon is ok with deployment of National Guard troops to Arizona, “If the National Guard helps toward a common purpose of having a safer border and if they can do this without detaining Mexican migrants”.
If this was Fox News I would think that maybe they just hired a biased interpreter, but it’s from Reuters.

With one lawmaker citing President Lincoln’s respect for the rule of law, the Massachusetts Senate passed a far-reaching crackdown this afternoon on illegal immigrants and those who would hire them, going further, senators said, than any immigration bill proposed over the past five years.
In a surprising turn of events, the legislation replaced a narrower bill that was passed Wednesday over the objections of Republicans.
The measure, which passed on a 28-10 vote as an amendment to the budget, would bar the state from doing business with any company found to break federal laws barring illegal immigrant hiring. It would also toughen penalties for creating or using fake identification documents, and explicitly deny in-state college tuition for illegal immigrants.
The amendment would also require the state’s public health insurance program to verify residency through the Department of Homeland Security, and would require the state to give legal residents priority for subsidized housing.

Dude we are already pumping billions into his crooked government and arming his murderous military helping Mexico descend further in to chaos and ruin so him getting pissed about the border is not that big a deal.
Oh wait! We are fighting a war on drugs. SEND MORE MONEY!!! The death of the Mexican people is worth the .0089% drop in drug use.
