Not long after Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer singed the new immigration legislation into law. Mexican President Calderon has been touring Washington, D.C. with the intent to lecture Congress and the American people that he disagrees with Arizona's enforcement of Mexico's southern U.S. border - while apprearing to deny the way his own country cracks down on illegal immigrants entering Mexico.

The Mexican government has repeatedly citied the State of Arizona for violating immigrant human rights from Central Latin America. However, Mexican law made illegal immigrantion a criminal offense - anyone entering Mexico illegally is arrested for the violation and will be penalized and imprisoned for 2 years and deported. Illegal re-entry into Mexico can be imprisoned for 10 years. Appearently, Mexico's immigration laws reads the same as Arizona's.

President Calderon's address to Congress in Washington, D.C. was inappropriate and disgraceful to the American people, while President Barack Obama and the Democratic Party gave him a standing ovation, showing disregard for U.S. severienty.
