President Obama has wanted to trade secure borders for a form of amnesty for illegal aliens for at least six years, an apparent recording of an interview on Chicago Public Radio reveals.
The issue erupted last week when Sen. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., said to a town hall meeting in Arizona that Obama personally told him he would not secure the border because Republicans then would have no reason to support comprehensive immigration reform.
Today, the blog Naked Emperor News posted on YouTube.com an audio recording apparently of Obama making a similar statement in 2004:
Obama comments that the "system" is "unfair" for a lot of people and says there would need to be a way to secure the borders, track individuals coming into the U.S. "who may be engaged in terrorist activity" and "provide a pathway" for citizenship.
"That's going to be a difficult conversation to have and it's going to have to be bipartisan," he said. "The tradeoff is going to have to be improved security of our borders at the same allowing those who are already here to reach out for that American dream," he said.
Kyl told the Arizona audience he had a one-on-one conversation with Obama about the issue:
"I met with the president in the Oval Office … just the two of us," Kyl said. "We had a discussion. Here's what the president said. The problem is, the president said, if wesecure the border, then you all won't have any reason to support comprehensive immigration reform.
"It other words, they're holding it hostage," Kyl said, prompting gasps of surprise or possibly outrage in the room. "They don't want to secure the border unless and until it is combined with comprehensive immigration reform."
White House Communications Director Dan Pfeiffer issued a statement to Fox News stating,...

Obama needs to esad! Dirty crooked bastage!
Never let a crisis go to waste. :-(
For someone who is supposed to be internet savvy, shouldn’t he know that his own words were recorded and put out there for all to know?
Didn’t they try this about 25 years ago? Traded secure borders for amnesty? My memory is, the amnesty happened but the secure borders got lost in the shuffle.
agreed and if i posted what i want to post i would most certainly be banned
"This amnesty will give citizenship to only 1.1 to 1.3 million illegal aliens. We will secure the borders henceforth. We will never again bring forward another amnesty bill like this." - Ted Kennedy, 1986
Ted Kennedy again. Who despised the western Christian origins of our country with a burning hatred, apparantly a trait inherited from his father. What gave rise to it I have no clue.
You want to kiss him? I would ban you for that.
i dont kiss rats

I am in favor of “comprehensive immigration reform”, but I suspect I define it much differently than they do. I welcome those who come here to become Americans. I accept them keeping pride in their heritage, as did the Italian and Scandinavian immigrants of days gone by, as I do in my Irish heritage.
Seal the border tight, then we can talk about who to keep and whom to eject. Deportations now are not helping; those who want to come back do so at will.
The list, ping
It’s like the battered wife syndrome for the ‘progressives’.
Obama asks, “Who you gonna believe? Me or your own lying eyes?”
