Napolitano: Feds should take lead

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said Saturday that Congress should be responsible for tackling the nation’s illegal immigration problem, not the individual states.

Countdown until Obama leaves Office: 620 days as of May 8, 2011.

Obama-Napolitano-2sm

Obama - ''Let me be clear, as clear as mud; there are no reports of any trouble with the border. Nothing to see here. Security efforts are working just fine and the border is open for business. We've got it all covered, just ask Janet. Now please go back to your business as usual, trade in that SUV and just relax. When we see a problem we'll say something.''

Hope and Change.... Tragic.

Butch is a joke on the border issue. Everybody knows it. She was a disgrace to Arizona as AG and as Governor, and now she’s America’s problem.

“The Fed should take lead. Does that mean the feds should be shot?”

Well Abe says, “Where do you want this killin’ done ?”
And God says. “Out on Highway 61”.

Someone should be responsible, and it should be the feds. However, the feds are being irresponsible in not doing their job, so they should not interfere if the states do the feds’ job for them.
