PHOENIX - Gov. Janet Napolitano on Wednesday ordered more National Guardsmen posted at the Mexican border to help stop illegal immigrants and curb related crimes.

National Guard troops have worked at the border since 1988, but Napolitano signed an order authorizing commanders to station an unspecified number of additional soldiers there to help federal agents.

Once the funding is approved, the troops will monitor crossing points, assist with cargo inspection and operate surveillance cameras, according to the order.

"They are not there to militarize the border," the governor said. "We are not at war with Mexico."

About 170 National Guardsmen are already posted at the nation's busiest illegal entry point, where they assist with communications, fence construction and anti-drug efforts.

Napolitano did not say how many additional troops would be stationed at the border and referred questions to the National Guard, which did not immediately return a call.

Napolitano has asked the military to pay for her plan, but said she would commit state dollars if necessary.

The governor declared an immigration emergency last summer in Arizona's four border counties, citing security shortcomings by the federal government.

Whoop-De-Friggin-Doo! Total lip service.

I hear Phoenix is overrun with wetbacks with more coming everyday

"They are not there to militarize the border," the governor said.

No kidding, the wets will keep doing what they always do, which is walk around the checkpoints.

"We are not at war with Mexico."
We should be.

I totally agree with all your points.

Lip service is at least a start. Support the Minutemen !

Even this lip service is more than Boy Jorge and Nepotism NeoCon Chertoff are doing....

but then you have to realize Boy Jorge's lips are busy with Vincente...

praising his fine leadership, of course.

I think you're 100% correct. napolitano is pro-mexican immigrant. and she's just posturing. the troops will do nobody any good, otherwise she wouldn't have sent them.

and yes, Phoenix is over-run with Mexicans. to the point where if you work a construction trade and english is your language, then you're disadvantaged for not speaking spanish when looking for a job.

here's some news of significance from phoenix. today there were light sprinkles in various parts of town. But the weather people say the rain was too light and it doesn't count as rain. that means that we've had no measureable rain still for about 140 days. Every day is a record.

Unfortunately, she don't get it. We need two divisions on the Arizona border alone.

Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.
