Dems Stand and Cheer as Calderon Bashes Arizona Law
**Posted by guest-blogger Doug Powers
If Jan Brewer had been the territorial governor of Hawaii in 1941 and these same Democrats were in charge, they would have applauded the Pearl Harbor attack, had a State Dinner for Hirohito, and the memorable quote from Obama’s post-attack speech would have been, “The only thing we have to fear is that the Hawaiian authorities will start profiling Japanese.”
Think about it — a foreign leader comes to the U.S., bashes a state within the U.S. for doing something that it’s well within their constitutional rights to do, and Democrats stand and cheer. This isn’t surprising but it never ceases to be amazing.
Also look for Attorney General Eric Holder at about the 23-second mark, who slowly stands up to applaud the President of Mexico for bashing an American law he hasn’t even read (h/t Freedom’s Lighthouse):
Any real American president would have shoved this guy out through the garbage exit yesterday, but not this bunch.
Look at Plugs and Blinky, who were absolutely enamored. Pelosi looks like Calderon just handed her a complimentary fistful of Botox:
Of course, there was that one low-key part where Calderon had something nice to say about the United States:
I was told they wouldn’t introduce Calderon to Robert Byrd, because the last time they did, Byrd looked up and said, “Why aren’t you in the Rose Garden weedin’ the hostaces, son?” An international incident was barely avoided.
So, sides have been chosen, and nothing should scare voters more than this kind of continual evidence that Democrats will stand for foreign leaders over one of the states in their own country. And to top it off, a state that did something that the vast majority of Americans agree with.
Update: Rep. Tom McClintock responds to Calderone.

More! More! Please!!
Everytime this ship of fools picks on AZ the more the American people join in solidarity. Wish someone would look up to see how Arizonans voted in the 2008 election for Obama. Those people must be getting riled up too.
I think incumbents should be scared.
Talk about campaign fodder…WOW these Dems are a gift that keep on giving. I just got off the phone with my mother and law and my wife’s Grandmother (both big ultra libs from the Bay Area). They both wathced the speech live and called me to tell me how upset they were. They could not believe that the Dems would allow a foreign leader to talk this way about any part of Amercia.
My mother in law put it best when she said, “And here I thought this kind of thing was only acceptable at the UN.”
There is no ass the socialist progressive liberal Democrats won’t kiss and come November they are going to be kissing a lot more on their way out the door.
Secede! We already have in spirit.
Are we moving to anarchy? Are we a country of laws or a country of selected laws? How can people like those cheering Democrats ever get elected? What is wrong with America?
So was this Calderon’s “Mr. Obama, tear down this wall!” moment?
T-Bone, I can’t believe that Americans can continually vote for liberals. They don’t deserve the country that our forefathers fought for. I’m concerned only for my children and grand children. We deserve the government we have, but they don’t.
That photo of Biden and Pelosi:
Fawning traitors of the most treacherous kind.
Listening to Hugh Hewitt interview Jonathan Alter of Newsweek the other day, it finally dawned on me what the mainstream medias love affair with Obama reminds me of:
The photojournalist and Colonel Kurtz in the movie “Apocolypse Now”:
Photojournalist:
Hey, man, you don’t talk to the Colonel. You listen to him. The man’s enlarged my mind. He’s a poet warrior in the classic sense. I mean sometimes he’ll… uh… well, you’ll say “hello” to him, right? And he’ll just walk right by you. He won’t even notice you. And suddenly he’ll grab you, and he’ll throw you in a corner, and he’ll say, “Do you know that ‘if’ is the middle word in life? If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you, if you can trust yourself when all men doubt you”… I mean I’m… no, I can’t… I’m a little man, I’m a little man, he’s… he’s a great man! I should have been a pair of ragged claws scuttling across floors of silent seas…
It was as if Rod Serling was about to step out from behind the flag at any moment – truly a disturbing a moment for the US and a disgraceful one for Democrats!
Gotta love Robert Byrd
Indeed. I can envision a whole series of spots beginning “Remember this…?”
“Stimulus” that only stimulated unions and Dem cronies.
“Bailouts” of Gubmint Motor, etc.
“Cash for Clunkers” where a $3500 benefit cost the taxpayers $8000.
“Health sCare” jammed down our throat.
Voting for massive bills without reading them.
Actually, in the first pic, it looks like Calderon has reached out & squeezed the witch’s teat right out of its brass brassiere! And she’s screaming with delight!
Read their party program, and it all makes sense.
Welcome to Senator Joe McCarthy’s nightmare…
there are not only Communists in our government,
the Communists control 2 of the three branches of our government (and are only 1 Supreme Court Justice away from control of the third branch)!
It’s for our own good, Doug.
The Dems are going to show us racist, Nazi xenophobes the way into the light.
This behavior is infuriating!
the berlin wall was to keep people in…we want one to keep them OUT!!!
Why the hell didn’t republicans walk out??? This really ticks me off.
Off to write more letters.
Report out of W. Memphis has two officers dead, two wounded, and two dead perps.
It is suggested in reports that the killers were Hispanic, but I cannot vouch for that.
I hereby formally invite ALL REAL AMERICANS to move to the ONLY REAL STATE LEFT …
Arizona …
Where we still stand for the ideals and freedoms on which this once great country was founded, and where we are still willing to fight to defend all that America stands for …
LONG LIVE ARIZONA !!!

Repeating something I said yesterday, we won the Cold War internationally, but we have been losing the Cold War domestically… on college campuses where people like Bill “Education is the motor-force of Revolution” Ayers have been brainwashing and indoctrinating students for decades.
Ideological subversion is a well-documented (and repeatedly used around the world) 4-step process to “fundamentaly transform” a country from freedom to Communism.
We are dangerously close to step 4: Communist “Normalization”.
We must realize that Communists have always dreamed of world-wide Communism. The only thing standing in their way is the U.S.A.
That is why the Communists have been doing everything in their power to weaken the U.S., and make us dependent on Communist countries (for oil, for financing our debt, etc.).
The Communists have been at war against this country for decades. It’s time for us to defeat them once and for all.
AND Oklahoma
How unfortunate this didn’t take place on Monday. Or would PA-12 have voted the same?
All of these POS’s need to go. November can’t come fast enough.
I’m emailing the link to this to everyone I know. I will do it again next Thursday and every Thursday through the end of October. I would send it every day but I don’t want people to get immune to it.
Every one of those a-holes who stood up and applauded needs to be singled out and defeated. Don’t let them get away with this atrocity! Who the hell does Calderon think he is coming to our sovereign country and blasting our laws when his are clearly worse. If we changed our laws to be like Mexico’s laws, any illegal alien would be put in prison just for being here. There is no better proof of the kind of corrupt administration we have in charge than to see this display of ignorance and treason. I am sorry to have to say this, but I’m afraid civil war is on the horizon. We can’t let the progressives get away with what they are doing to this country and they don’t seem to be about to loosen their deadly grip. What is our recourse? After the November elections, some hard decisions will have to be made as to the next step to get our country back.
MissCheryl …
TRUE …
Born and raised there …
We the People of the United States of America have the right to have our borders and our laws respected and enforced.
Citizens of other countries illegally in our country have no right to demand anything from our government. They most certainly have the right to petition the governments of their home countries for change if they are unhappy with their home country. If they want to be Americans, we have a path to citizenship, more generous than any other nation, and it starts in their home country.
We need to insist on the equal protection, application and enforcement of the law or devolve into anarchy. Our Republic only functions if everyone follows the same rules. We should not change the laws to accomodate those breaking them.
If America annouces to the world “We can’t stop you, so come on in” with another amnesty, the deluge will be overwhelming. If 3,000 a day didn’t get your attention, then wait until it’s 10,000 a day. We cannot sustain this influx and survive as a nation. We must speak up and speak to each other about this and not let false claims of racism or bigotry be used to intimidate us into silent assent. America is not Congress’ to give away. America belongs to We the People. Speak to your neighbors, speak to your coworkers, but please speak up to your Congressmen and Senators. It’s O.K. for us to enforce our laws, no really, it is.
Someone please tell Sen. McCain.
I hope Gov. Brewer is getting a lot of letters of support!! Everyone needs to write and call and give her a boost. She needs to know the American people are behind her! God bless that woman and give her continued courage!
We are living under a banana republic and Tyranny.
GM and other businesses unconstitutionally taken over by the federal Government-check
Over 30 Unconstitutional appointed Czars-check
Trillions of unaccountable dollars unconstitutionally stolen form the federal treasury-check
Unconstitutional Obamacare enacted over the will of the people-check
Current President is ineligible to be the President not a natural born citizen-check
Enough is enough. In my humble opinion it is time to either impeach this president or start criminal proceedings against these commies.
You are right ITookTheRedPill, this is exactly what Joseph McCarthy warned us all about but was ignored by the Rockefeller elite in the CFR/Trilateral Commission.
Flippy stands in front of the US Congress, disparages 73% of our citizens and every moronic Democrat stands up and cheers?!? WOW, what a graphic gift this is for the coming elections. The question that all voters must be asked upon viewing the event (over & over again) must be; Exactly how do you vote for a Democrat and still be an American?
Calderon also managed to claim that the US is actually his peoples land. He claimed his peoples claims go back 1000+ years. From this perspective, it is clear that the Mexican intention is to reclaim what this leader is claiming as his land.
After watching this Mexican president today, it is clear to me that he is simply abusing language and words to promote an invasion and eventual destruction of the USA.
We need to send the military to the border and DEPORT ALL illegal aliens.
‘America is not Congress’ to give away’
Thank you Virginia Patriot, this would make a great rallying cry, slogan for an event, or poster.
http://www.wmctv.com/Global/story.asp?S=12515206
Police shooting in W. Memphis, AR…apparently drug transport…lots of firepower.
I think there are a few Apache / Commanche / Kiowa and *numerous* other tribes who might have an issue with that.
When we speak of Tyranny and Treason, these are not just idle words of anger, they are legally binding.
Every single one of these people that stood and applauded a foreign official on American soil took an oath of Office.
“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”
By standing an applauding unlawful behavior, they are violating their oath of office and committing treason. IMHO
The Apache, Navajo, and other tribes out of AZ may have a problem with his claims to their tribal lands.
The mind reels. Despite the blatant evidence on display here that something is wrong with the current Democrat party, leftists (esp including the “reasonable” leftists that some here love to laugh and giggle with as if ultimately we’re all “on the same team”) continue to put these contemptible fools in office to the detriment and ultimate ruin of our nation.
I’ll say it again folks, we’re in a cold civil war. The type of attitude that the Democrats displayed at this event is forever antithetical to the conservative understanding of America. It’s really that simple. Either these anti-American Democrats get voted out and banished permanently to the backwater/fringe of American political life or America as we knew it is done as an experiment.
Amen. Yes, how? I’m going to start asking.
Shay #35, they say great minds think alike (native people of the SW). You’re quicker on the draw.
Oh and where is Gov Brewer’s response to this arrogant clown who had the temerity to talk trash while a guest in our own country??
I hope she rips Calderon a new one.
American Democrat = Oxymoron
My guess is two reasons
1. They feared alienating the illegals they hope to get to vote for them.
2. They fear the wrath of Nancy Peolosi’s menaingless censures…..
To put it simply the Republican party looks to have been nuetered…Time to take the party back through the power of our vote.
I can not believe what I just watched.
Is this even the USA? Sickening…and
that is an understatement. I just could not believe that they all stood up and cheered…like, they were fighting against their own country but
they are supposed to patriotic to this country and its’ laws. What the heck!
Major O … Jan Brewer is supposed to be on with Greta tonight … I would not be surprised to hear that question asked …
Jan Brewer has more spine and cajones than the entire government in D.C. …
I just wish at least one politician would publicy say to Calderon what we are all thinking:
If you don’t like our country’s laws then you can see your way out and make sure the door doesn’t hit your A$$ on the way out!!!!!
24Klady, I know a few Native Americans who don’t hesitate to set straight anyone who says such garbage in their hearing!
Thank you Scotty Dog, #36
Does this qualify as treason to the existing laws of this country?
This is stunning. All Americans should recognize tyranny when they see it — tyranny was standing an applauding to the words of a parasitic despot. NEVER FORGET this dispicable behavior! How is this not worthy of a revolution?
If you love this country, and the rule of law, you can’t be a Democrat, and you can’t support this White House or Congress. This just makes me sick.
Actually, while you were writing your #35 I was visiting BadEagle.com to see if Dr. Yeagley had commented on the past two day’s assault of our sovereignty. He hasn’t but it’s something he has done so well in the past, I was hoping. No, I’m not Native American, but for part of the year, live rather close to several reservations.
Watching the tape, you can see the Dems following Nancy’s lead. If she claps, they clap. If she stands, they stand.
The next time her plane is here over at Hickam A.F.B., I’m painting a broom on the rudder.
I’m sure that was a rhetorical question, but anyway, the reason is liberals/democraps.
My #51 was meant for Shay #47. I’m operating without caffeine. I need Coffee!
The Arizona delegation should have gotten up, walked out, and yelled “Eff you” on the way.
Disgraceful. The fact there are still millions of people willing to vote for these traitors and saboteurs is proof to me that America is doomed.
Broomstick 1 I love it!!!
Wow, this image will stick with me. Might as well been cheering Perez. If they are trying to piss us off, they are doing a great job.
I see the Democrat Party as an Anti-American conspiracy that we must defeat asap.
Yeah, but they didn’t read it…
I swear there’s a nuke in the basement somewhere in DC. The Russians stick one there and rent it out to bozos like Calderone, and Chavez and dinnerjacket, and for the length of time you have it rented you get to make Congress and the President dance like a $2 puppet. Nothing else makes sense.
That should be an ad in every congressional race this fall. If they can find them, the camera should zoom in on the face of the Dem candidate cheering. Then voice over Exactly how do you vote for a Democrat and still be an American?
Of course Calderon would bash the U.S. Why not.
Every despot/czar/tyrant/genocidal maniac on earth is using nObama’s agenda as a playground to further their own takeover of my great country…and then standing around murmuring to each other “Who’d'a thought it would be this easy” while snickering up their sleeves.
Is there anyone in this treacherous administration who is a loyal American? I don’t know of ANY.
If memory serves me correct I don’t remember Bush showing any Mexican any exit, did I miss something? Guess he wasn’t a “real” president either, birth certificate and all.
Hey Felipe, on the occasion of your insulting speech before congress, I took the time to finally learn a few words of Spanish:
Viva los 1070.
Have you folks been watching Glenn Beck lately? The connections between our POTUS and a whole lot of VERY corrupt people is conclusive. I mean, he is right smack in the middle of the worst corruption this country has ever seen. And NO ONE in the MSM is paying any attention! Watch his show from today…please. This has GOT to be stopped! We have the mafia running our country and we have to get rid of them…fast!! This country is too precious to allow these evil people to use it like their own personal cash cow.
The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican form of Government, and shall protect each of them against invasion.” Article IV Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution.
According to Webster’s dictionary, fifteen million illegal aliens constitute an invasion.
A person (including a group of persons, business, organization, or local government) commits a federal felony when she or he: assists an illegal alien she/he should reasonably know is illegally in the U.S. or who lacks employment authorization, by transporting, sheltering, or assisting him or her to obtain employment, or encourages that illegal alien to remain in the U.S. by referring him or her to an employer or by acting as employer or agent for an employer in any way, or knowingly assists illegal aliens due to personal convictions.” Federal Law—Section 8 USC 1324.
In addition, the members of Congress committed a second criminal violation of their oaths of office regarding an Article V Convention call. 5 U.S.C. 7311 clearly specifies it is a criminal violation for any member of Congress to advocate the overthrow of our constitutional form of government. The definition of the word “advocate” is to: “defend by argument before a tribunal or the public: support or recommend publicly.”
The definition of “advocate” is further specified in Executive Order 10450 which for the purposes of enforcement supplements 5 U.S.C. 7311. One provision of Executive Order 10450 specifies it is a violation of 5 U.S.C. 7311 for any person taking the oath of office to advocate “the alteration … of the form of the government of the United States by unconstitutional means.” Our form of government is defined by the Constitution of the United States. It can only be “altered” by constitutional amendment. Thus, according to Executive Order 10450 (and therefore 5 U.S. 7311) any act taken by government officials who have taken the oath of office prescribed by 5 U.S.C. 3331which alters the form of government other by amendment, is a criminal violation of the 5 U.S.C. 7311.
IMHO-They are guilty
Excellent post!
Add that to the War of Words between Arizona utility regulator Gary Pierce and Los Angeles’ dimwitted mayor and pretty soon the words will turn into something much uglier.
These democrats are purposefully provocative, they need to tone it down fast or we’ll be re-living the riots and chaos of 1968 before they know it.
I’ve been trying to tell people for years that the biggest threat on amnesty isn’t the Democrats.
Voting for Republicans who support amnesty is going to get you amnesty.
What a bunch of pathetic liars. Calderon, too dumb to know how dumb he is.
Let’s adopt Mexico immigration laws.
Saw the Chicago thug brigade up close and personal for 9 years of living in the burbs. There is nothing like it. Chicago politicians have taken corruption to a fine science. They make the mafia look like boy scouts. Bho could never have been elected without them and he owes them big time.
I looked at the video but all I could see were Democrats/socialists. I guess BDS still lingers for some people.
swmntman,
The fact is Bush did reduce border and interior enforcement from the inadequate level of the Clinton administration. When people could not ignore it anymore and pressed the House to pass HR4437, an enforcement bill, is when Bush and the Senate GOP tried to jam the first McCain/Kennedy down. And it was a jamdown. Secret negotiations behind closed doors with The National Council of The Race. No commitee hearings (thanks Arlen). It was appalling.
Then they tried it again the next year. Bush did some good things. Southern border wasn’t one of them.
And if your memory serves you correctly you won’t remember a Mexican president coming here during Bush’s tenure and bashing an American state while addressing our congress, either.
Happy- I DVR Beck everyday. It really is getting scary and it seems no one is paying attention. The only good that may come of this is taking back our Country.
The scary thing now is all they need is Snowe, Collins or Gramnesty to flip and make it happen. Only hope is they won’t want to tackle another toxic bill before elections – which seems realistic.
her call sign should be “witch-1″
Oh well, good to know my “representative”, John Spratt does something other than sit on his fat ass all day. Hopefully we will give him plenty of time to sit on his fat ass at home come November.
The Democrat Party long ago ceased to be representative of the United States of America. Why anyone votes for these traitors is beyond me, but things like this show just how much of a snow job these bums have been able to foist of the good hearted citizens. I really feel sorry for the next generation or two, because the Democrats intend to destroy the greatness of America and they have a lot of dupes who will go along with them thinking that this is really great. Wait till the hangover shows up and the next generation realizes that their liberties have been stolen or sold for a few votes.
And less I miss Republicans here – the have abandoned their principles to get elected and they have betrayed their base and the ideals of the founders.
The change Obama brought is to have OPEN and Blatant tyranny, treachery and treason to this country. He needs to be impeached for opening the floodgates and inviting even more Illegals to pour over the border. I have had it with these sick, evil twisted traitors!
Utterly disgusting and loathsome.
*As I have said many times, the Democrat Party is the “Death to America” Party; It is evident in all that they do on a daily basis, and this is no different; A POTUS who actually loved the USA would flush this little pinch back to the third world toilet he has emerged from; It will all come to a head someday, regardless of what happens in November, so be prepared to defend your country.
Nah that would only confuse her…..
Please pardon the repeat of part of a comment I made yesterday,
but it’s worth repeating…
And speaking of Caesar Chavez, did you know that “Yes, We Can!” originated with him?
“Yes, We Can!” –> “¡Sí se puede!” –> Alinsky Radicals –> Lucifer
http://www.investors.com/NewsAndAnalysis/PhotoPopup.aspx?id=533661
I bet Calderon at least read the law unlike the Regime officials.
Caeser Chavez was very much against illegal aliens. He correctly saw that they undercut his farmworkers wages.
On May 20th, 2010 at 9:32 pm, Virginia Patriot said:
I’ll take your word on that. But that doesn’t change the fact that he was a disciple of Alinsky, who literally gave tribute to Lucifer.
Is a Communist who was very much against illegal immigration all that much better than the current Communists who are very much pro-illegal immigration?
No.
Maybe a little.
This is nothing new. Earlier, in my lifetime, Congressional Democrats pulled traitorous, treasonous acts with the fragility of our national security by inviting communist d-bags, like Daniel Ortega, to fly up to DC for black-tie dinners, just to try to infuriate President Reagan as he attempted to curb the growing influence of Soviet aggression inside of the western hemisphere.
I’m admittedly numb to Democrat insanity by now. Their Party overplayed their hand years ago.
Major 0, I didn’t say Pres. Fox did bash an American state, he didn’t get the chance either. Don’t forget Bush and Fox were good friends, both were working hard for a comprehensive immigration plan…right up and until the American public it down. That said, Bush didn’t show any Mexican the exit door, did he?
Major, by the way Pres. Fox just stuck it to the whole country telling us how wrong we were to have such draconian immigration laws …seemingly forgetting about his own countries immigration laws.
I have nothing additional to say in condemnation of these traitors. Everyone here has already said it. My sixth grade teacher was prescient in 1964 when he told us that if America were to be destroyed, it would come from within.
God have mercy on us.
Why couldn’t Al Qaeda have hit the DNC headquarters instead of the WTC?
Oh I’m sure they will find a couple more ways to twist the knife before November.
The Democrats have just trashed 60% of the U.S. public. Fine.
As of today I refuse to cooperate with government and corporations who support illegals in any way, shape, or form. When asked to show identification I expect to have the same right of refusal as any illegal.
If arrested for it, I will file a civil rights complaint, sue if it is a corporation. Everyone in America has the Constitutional right to equal protection and treatment under the law.
If illegals are afforded special rights, then I demand the same thing. If enough of us to this we will bring the machine to its knees. It is time for civil disobedience.

A lot of really great people would be alive today.
We might as well have elected Adolph Hitler. Oh! Wait, I think we did.
But why would they want to hit their biggest fans?
Once again, Americans, blinded by party politics, elect and re-elect traitors, Democrats and Republicans alike, wondering why they are being betrayed. Fact is, politicians, save statesmen like Tom Tancredo, are selling out American borders, security and soverignity for votes.
Also note that only a common man gets looted, raped and murdered. Never a politician or his/her family, even while feeding off of taxes paid by the same common man who gets looted, raped and murdered…. if you get the idea.
what the dems really liked was that calderon makes pelosi look smart.
My basset hound makes Pelosi look stupid, and sometimes he forgets to breathe.
This should be a bumper sticker…
