    Immigration's Surprise Villain Felepe Calderon

    Bryan Curtis Bryan Curtis – Wed May 12, 12:04 am ET

    NEW YORK – How Mexico's President Felipe Calderon helped bring us the awful Arizona immigration bill. By Bryan Curtis.

    Who should we blame for Arizona’s anti-immigrant law? Governor Jan Brewer, who signed the thing. The Tea Parties, which have dragged our politics to the right. And the U.S. Congress, which has gone three years without acting on immigration reform. But, today, let’s train our animus on a politician who has thus far escaped much scrutiny: Felipe Calderon, the president of Mexico.

    Calderon’s war on drugs, now wobbling into its fourth year, helped turn the U.S.-Mexico border into a bloody slaughterhouse, complete with kidnappings, torture, and beheadings. You can draw a straight line between the border’s climate of terror and the political opportunism in Arizona.

    “Calderon’s failure has created a situation of completely unjustified overreaction,â€
    You cannot dedicate yourself to America unless you become in every
    respect and with every purpose of your will thoroughly Americans. You
    cannot become thoroughly Americans if you think of yourselves in groups. President Woodrow Wilson

    Is this the Mexican version of "Bush did it"?
