| 2010-07-17 | |
Dateline Thurs, July 15, 2010 - Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on Friday will order 224 California National Guard troops to the border with Mexico, fulfilling an earlier commitment to President Barack Obama. Schwarzeneggers order defines the state guards role as supportive, noting that forces, while armed, "will not be deployed in a direct law enforcement role."
Schwarzenegger limits the deployment to one year. In May, Obama launched a plan to deploy 1,200 National Guard troops to the southwest border. | |

| #4 ...why we're importing a second underclass from the failed state on our southern border? Same question applies to the wonder acculturated Somalis. Our Governemnt can't destroy the country fast enough. |

| #3 As Dr. Krauthammer notes, calling out the NG to the border is a time-honored BS maneuver, a redirect favored by pols of both parties when the little folk get too uppity about asking why we're importing a second underclass from the failed state on our southern border. |

| #2 As long as the NG personnel are not federalized, they are not subject to Posse Comitatus and can be used in accordance with state statutes governing law enforcement. |

| #1 Probably they will be handing out drivers licenses, directions to the welfare offices, useful information about sanctuary cities, and other needed things that every illegal immigrant needs. |
