“The move comes in wake of Arizona’s passage of a harsh immigration law, which ignited a national conversation about illegal immigration.”

Wow so politico doesn’t know that the AZ bill is actually softer on immigration then the federal laws? AZ basically just allows the federal law to be enforced by state officials (while removing the ability to profile which is still allowed in the federal law) and it’s a “harsh” immigration law.

What happened to Napolitano saying that the border is the safest it’s been in a long time. If it’s so safe, why does national gaurd presence need to be stepped up. Thanks for the gesture Mr. President, but does this mean you’ll apologize to the good people of Arizona for passing what is obviously a necessary law?
