You LIE, Mr Obama.
This isn’t just a little lie. This is a massive lie. Back in 2005 the fence was proposed to run about 700 miles. 370 miles were later proposed. 700 miles of physical barriers were proposed. The virtual fence was suspended on March 16th of 2010. Therefore you cannot have comprehensive immigration reform. Again, see this GAO report.
Tucson, Phoenix, El Paso, are the safest cities in America. Everything is just fine. No.
There are PSAs (public service announcements) on AM radio station KCBQ (San Diego) that indicate what you’re to do when (not if) you receive an extortion telephone call from Mexicans.
Full text of Mr Obama’s May 10th El Paso, Tejas immigration speech here. Fences don’t work in North/South Korea? They don’t work in Israel? They didn’t work in East/West Berlin?
You’re safe. There is no problem. Things are always wonderful. Or — not.
Time to pimp yourself for votes now, is it not, Mr Obama?

Everyday its another load of crap from the Pimp Daddy. What makes me want to puke is the lovefest is about to begin again. I don’t know if I can live through another election year.

Barack Hussein Obama, the most duplicitous, lying, piece of shit, son of a bitch to ever INFEST the Oval Office…
I was in Big Bend national park a couple of years ago, where I found hundreds of miles of the Rio Grande that were about as wide as a city street and about three feet deep. A 12 year old could make it across in about 40 seconds, and all the troops in the U.S. military wouldn’t be enough to stop them.
No amount of “border security” is ever going to keep people out. It’s about time people faced that fact and figured out another solution; that is if they are serious about this issue and aren’t blabbing about it merely as an opportunity to spread more garbage about Democrats.
Green Eagle: you make a good point in terms of the Rio Grande. You, however, make the mistake of thinking that we can’t control our own borders. We CAN control them if we only apply the resources we currently possess along with the WILL to do precisely that.
The issue isn’t about Demorats and garbage; it’s about RIGHT and WRONG and allowing people to simply CHOOSE which laws they will and will not follow. You canNOT keep a sovereign nation just that without secure borders and common threads in that culture, mostly to include language and shared national traits.
You canNOT keep a nation secure and invested when it does nothing more than PROMOTE individual enclaves that do NOT assimilate and, instead, insist on remaining separate and isolated.
With that, you’re insisting on another Europe and history is proving that Europe and “Multi-Kulti” simply doesn’t work.

Zeppelin, I agree with you about this. I an very left wing, but I still believe every nation has a right to control immigration- this is the only country I know of where that is even in question. I just think that, when you have the disparity of income that exists between the U.S. and adjacent countries, there is no way that you are going to control this problem with border enforcement. It serves the interests of multinational corporations to have these low-income sources of labor, but it’s killing the rest of us. Until these people can live a halfway decent life at home, they are going to come here, and there really isn’t much we can do about it.
Obama is such a liar.
And the way he ridiculed those concerned by the border issues! The part about the moat and the alligators, I mean.
He’s really been up on his high horse since OBL was killed.
