Mr President - is it true you let over a hundred murderers go free?

"It's estimated that over 80 percent of the folks who are here on an undocumented basis have been here 10 years or longer," Obama said. "You know, these are folks who are woven into the fabrics of our communities. Their kids are going to school with our kids. Most of them are not making trouble."

President Obama has made a couple of important points. One is that most of them are not making trouble. Another is that they have been here for ten or more years. So there is no urgency to pass amnesty. This group of hard working, tax paying, law abiding (except immigration law), people can continue on "auto pilot" until after we secure our borders, deport the convicted criminals, and those with no skills and no jobs.

After securing our borders and stopping the flow of illegal immigrants into this country, we can come up with a plan to legalize the illegal aliens in a way that is acceptable to those legal immigrants who waited in line.

President Obama should support securing our borders, and then take whatever time is necessary to come up with comprehensive immigration reform that is acceptable to both those who waited and the American people.

WHAT is it with Barry and his use of "folks"? Is this some poll tested word which is supposed to make him seem folksy?

For Obama they’re not making trouble... he lives in the freakin’ White House... Other liberal elites live in safe buildings and houses with expensive security systems... Jeb Bush isn’t worried either...

Too bad there’s millions and millions of us who are NOT elites...

ALL illegal immigrants are lawbreakers by definition, and that is trouble enough and shows an inherent disrespect for the Rule of Law, a trait they share with Obama.
If there's ONE report of a murder, rape, drunk driving homicide of a US citizen it is too many, and we know that such reports are constant and numerous.
They are NOT doing the jobs Americans won't do, government is destroying the private sector jobs, unemployment is rampant, and will only get worse as ObamaCare kicks in --- just one of the disastrous consequence of the government forced nationalization of the healthcare system without any positive benefit for the citizens, though the greedy political elites do get more power/control over the American People.
The illegal immigrants have been instrumental in destroying the economy of California. They are largely living off the public trough, causing hospitals along the border to shutdown because of financal stresses, educating children in public schools --- all so that Obama's Demmunist party can steal elections through vote fraud.
Just ANOTHER Obama lie.

On a personal note I have had two air conditioner units stolen by a band of illegal immigrants operating on the fringe of the construction industry.
