Yesterday, President Obama gave a speech on immigration in which he announced the following: "There are those who argue that we should not move forward with any other elements of reform until we have fully sealed our borders. Our borders are just too vast for us to be able to solve the problem only with fences and border patrols. It won't work."
My question: How would Obama know? since he became President, Obama has not done anything to improve the enforcement of the border. The fence that had previously been approved by Congress was stopped. No new border agents were added. The number of employers arrested for hiring illegals is dow over 85% from the last year of the Bush administration. National Guard troops were ordered with great show to the border, but none of them has actually gone there and the orders require that when and if they arrive, they will not try to stop illegal entry. In short, Obama has not tried to carry out his responsibilities to control the border.
This is yet again an instance where Obama just says something that is not true and acts as if his statement resolves the whole matter. The man has no shame. He also has no competence or talent besides using a teleprompter. About a year ago, there was a parody on the web with regard to TOTUS or Teleprompter of the United States being in charge of the government. At the time I thought it was just funny. Now i realize just how truthful and scary it is.
