Wasn't it something to see all the commies in our Congress get up and applaud? Pelosi did the jack in the box thing again. Over one half of the U S Congress acted like the U N General assembly. Calderon speaking before congress are the very reason why we need to clean house in November. It showed how badly out of touch these moronic fools in Washington really are.This looks an awful lot like conspiring with the enemy to me.

@salmer666 this man has no courage he lets drug cartels run freely and when he put the military in his own country and didn't even call for martial law that was his first mistake and second when his own soldiers do the raping and the killing of inocent Mexican citizens and they cant defend themselves and then he blames the united states on the violence that is a coward move. we as Americans can defend ourselves cause we have those laws that we could buy any weapon we want,

Mr. Calderon should be aiming his energy toward providing economic opportunities in Mexico rather than criticizing US citizens for trying to protect our communities. No decent person "wants" racial profiling. We just don't want tens of millions of newcomers (even w/ positive personal qualities) entering our nation (w/limited land & water) against our will. Instead, we should assist our Mexican neighbors build farms, fisheries, roads, schools, hospitals, etc. That is the solution. Peace.
