Watch President Sellout
From Yahoo News:
President Barack Obama stepped up his criticism of Arizona's controversial immigration law Wednesday, calling it "misdirected" and warning that it has the potential to be applied in a discriminatory fashion.
Speaking at a joint news conference with Mexico's President Felipe Calderon, Obama called for overhauling the nation's immigration laws and said that can't be done unless Republicans support it.
The controversy over the Arizona law, which would make it a state crime to be in the country illegally, hung over Calderon's visit. Both leaders oppose the law, with Obama directing the Justice Department to review it for possible civil rights violations, and Calderon's government issuing a travel warning for Arizona, out of concern that Mexicans face an adverse political environment there.
Calderon made good on his pledge to take up the immigration issue during his meetings with Obama. He said the Arizona law criminalized migration and could encourage discrimination. He also called for the U.S. and Mexico to work together to solve the complex, politically sensitive immigration issue.
"We can do so if we create a safer border, a border that will unite us instead of dividing us, uniting our people," Calderon said. "We can do so with a community that will promote a dignified life in an orderly way for both our countries."
Almost twice as many people support the Arizona law as those who oppose it, according to an Associated Press-GfK poll this month. It found that 42 percent favored it, 24 percent opposed it and another 29 percent said they were neutral.
Obama has asked the Justice Department to review the law for possible civil rights violations. He said Wednesday that he expects a final review soon, after which his administration will decide how to approach the law.

Incredible!
This president so hates his own country, eh…maybe it’s not his own country really, but once again he kowtows to a foreign leader by continuing to misrepresent Arizona’s immigration law that his own attorney general Eric Holder hasn’t readand even his homeland security sectary Janet Napolitano hasn’t read the law eitherI don’t think Obama has read it either but that’s not stopping him from shamelessly mischaracterize a law that expressly prohibits racial profiling.
But, the facts don’t matter to Obama and the Democrats because they know they can manipulate the great unwashed masses that are representative of their base.
And their suck up hookers that make up the main stream media is dutifully repeating the lie to fool the public.
But, that okay really because the joke is on President Obama who continues to expose what he really is.
