Read it and weep …. Thankfully the November election is only 60 days away … What a “spin job” …Guard troops to deploy to Arizona border on Monday
PHOENIX – The first of 532 National Guard troops are set to begin their mission in the southern Arizona desert on Monday under President Barack Obama’s plan to beef up U.S.-Mexico border security, although they won’t have any law enforcement authority.About 30 troops will start their jobs on the border Monday, and waves of more troops will be deploying every Monday until all 532 are expected to be on the Arizona border by the end of September. In May, Obama ordered 1,200 National Guard
Shhh ... but They Won’t Have Any Law Enforcement Authority…
troops to boost security along the border…. [120 days to deploy 30 troops who are reporting on station without the authority necessary to do the job ... what a Commander ... what a Leader ... you've heard the old saying, "Never send a Community Organizer to do a man's job ...]
The troops will be “extra eyes and ears” for U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents, and though they will have guns for self-defense, they will not have the authority to arrest anyone, said Arizona National Guard spokesman Lt. Valentine Castillo. [Exactly what are the "rules of engagement" - see the first video below]
He said if troops spot illegal immigrants, they must report them to the Border Patrol, whose agents would make the arrest.
The troops will be stationed in the desert at “strategic locations” along the border, he said, but did not provide specifics.
Mario Escalante, a spokesman for the Border Patrol’s Tucson sector, said the troops will use binoculars, night-vision equipment, remote cameras and computers to conduct surveillance on the border, and will have radios to communicate with Border Patrol agents.
They’ll be set up at high points in various locations in the desert, he said.
Obama Secure Borders Two Step - OLE'

and this report
We need an Administration that will be serious about securing our borders … Vote in November …
