It looks like the President will be deploying troops to the US border.

Quote:
WASHINGTON - U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords Tuesday announced the White House has agreed to her requests to deploy National Guard troops to the U.S. border with Mexico.

Giffords called for the Guard's deployment immediately after the March 27, 2010, murder of Cochise County rancher Rob Krentz.

Tuesday afternoon, President Obama is expected to authorize the deployment of up to 1,200 National Guard troops to southwest border. He is also expected to request that $500 million be included in supplemental spending legislation for enhanced border protection and law enforcement activities.

What's his deal?!!


Quote:
In a speech Tuesday on the Senate floor, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said the situation on the border has "greatly deteriorated." He called for 6,000 National Guard troops to be sent to the U.S.-Mexico border.

"I appreciate the additional 1,200 being sent ... as well as an additional $500 million, but it's simply not enough," McCain said.

I'm sure this is a result of today's meeting between Obama and the Repubs. Let's hope this troop deployment is part of a deal...Obama deploys troops to secure border and in return, Republicans cooperate with some sort of down payment legislation, aka Dream Act and Agjobs

I used to respect him for standing up to all the racist republican. Now I seem to think he is no different. Him and his bf (lindsey) changes words and position everyday.
