When making the case for the Obama administration’s legal challenge to Arizona’s new law against illegal immigration, White House senior adviser David Axelrod said “no administration has been tougher” on immigration enforcement than the Obama administration.
“We can't have - we can't have a patchwork of 50 states developing their own immigration policy,” Axelrod told host Chris Wallace on the July 11 edition of “Fox News Sunday.” “I understand the frustration of people in Arizona. They want the federal government to step up and deal with this problem once and for all, and that's what we want to do.”
“But no administration has been tougher on enforcement,” said Axelrod. “No administration has gone after employers the way we have, who have broken the law by hiring these workers.”

That ain't saying much. There hasn't been an administration concerned with immigration enforcement for decades.
Then you simple minded Axenuttttt, enforce the Federal policy and protect our citizens. What an ass!!!!!!!!!!
Nothing but horse hockey from Axisofevilrod.
Is this moron sniffing glue?
Axelrod should read up on Eisenhower and Operation Wetback and about The Mexican Repatriation and about Pershing and Pancho Villa.
The Mexican Repatriation refers to a forced migration that took place between 1929 and 1939, when as many as one million people of Mexican descent were forced or pressured to leave the US.
The list, ping
Any “toughness” the administration might want to hold out as an example is traceable back to measures set up by Congress several years ago, such as increasing BP staffing.
Kapos surround and attempt to hide the truth about their false God.
Greta on Fox TV last night interviewed a protest leader outside the All Star Game.
I noticed in the background behind the protester a 8’ fence that kept him outside the game. Brilliant Conception: enter Legally or stay outside!
MLB today now cancels next years scheduled ASG in Arizona! ( IRONIC )
If the obammy’s are a talking ya know they b lying.
Pure unadulterated BS. Eisenhower....Operation Wetback
Why not include Reagan as well? He's the one that threw open the gates and posted WELCOME signs all along the border with his damnable amnesty!
Yes, and he was sorry he did it. He was lied to by the democrats and he should have known better.
ROTFLOL! I nearly wrote those exact words in expectation of any reply.
Congressman Joe Wilson said it best:
He really must be taking serious hallucinogens.
“Look officer, it’s clear the current system is broken. And that’s why I fully support Comprehensive Speed Reform; because what are we gonna do? ticket every driver who crosses th’ speed limit? That’s clearly impossible. So until we have comprehensive speed control, we just hafta allow people to keep on speeding.”
1. PRESIDENT BUSH was not "hot" to grant amnesty. What he wanted, and campaigned on twice, was an orderly guest worker program so we would know who was in our country, why, and for how long. It was the writers of the legislation -- MeInsane and Uncle Teddy -- who were "hot" for amnesty.
2. Your memory did fail you. Reagan granted amnesty to nearly 4 million illegal invaders in 1986 promising to secure the border in the future. Of course the future never came.
This quote by Uncle Teddy should have been hung around all their necks in 2007:
“This amnesty will give citizenship to only 1.1 to 1.3 million illegal aliens.
We will secure the borders hence forth.
We will never again bring forward another amnesty bill like this.” (1986)
3. IIRC, and I may not, there were lots of immigration "adjustments" passed allowing for increased H1B visas and such. Why on earth would Clinton push for amnesty when the paperwork was still being done on the extra millions from a couple years before he took office?
