Ted Cruz blames immigration surge on Obama order
Naples News ^ | June 21, 2014 | AP

MIAMI — Republican Sen. Ted Cruz says the Obama administration is to blame for the waves of immigrant children crossing the border illegally.

The potential presidential candidate told reporters at a Republican fundraiser in Miami on Friday that Obama's 2012 decision to defer the deportations of some young immigrants who were brought to the country illegally creates a perception of an incentive to cross the border.

The Texas Republican calls Obama's executive order a "lawless act" that grants "amnesty."

I believe that Soetoro, Valerie Jarrett and Rupert Murdoch are all in on this. All three should be arrested and tried in the world court for causing this “humanitarian tragedy”.

0bama would love to turn the USA into a third world country. Much easier to control the masses that way.

How about the fact that Obama hosted an event last week honoring illegal aliens?

I have no doubt that the White House has been directly involved in encouraging the current invasion of “minors” to an extent that should lead to impeachment and treason convictions.

These people have gotten a lot of practice in covering their tracks, but how can they explain away the “Request For Information” posted on FedBizOpps.gov looking for vendors to help escort unaccompanied alien children in January?

That’s very true. What I don’t understand is why nobody sees the cynicism and ruthlessness behind Obama’s order.

BTW, I’m in favor of changes to our immigration system...mostly to undo Obama’s executive orders in his very first week as president, which took away legal entry for people from Latin American countries and gave it to people from “Muslim nations,” especially those in Africa (think Somalia).

Obama hates Latin Americans and is just using them very cynically to disconcert his opponents on his immigration non-policies. People here jeered at the wife of the president of Honduras who said she would pay for the repatriation of Honduran children, but she was clearly one of the few who realized what Obama was actually doing with this cruel trick.

Never has the obvious been so carefully avoided by so many.

There is a reason the whole of the world is flooding us with their children. They want those children to be given U.S. citizenship and Obama has all but promised that.

Do you want to stop the surge of children being sent from Central America? Start posting in their online news comments that the kids will be offered for adoption by homosexual and lesbian couples.

That should cause a furor.

“Never has the obvious been so carefully avoided by so many.”

Steve’s edit:

“...or commented/acted on, by so few...”

Very Churchill-ish of your original version...I applaud your statement, whether it was intended, or not, to be similar to a very historical portion of a good man’s speech...

I’m waiting for Rand Paul’s followup where he defends Obama, and blames it on Bush.

Sadly I suspect that is something Obama would do.

I would not give ‘credit’ to 0bummer as much as Jarrett and Soros. That said he is evil but does have others to think for him . Was Jarrett born in Iran? Does someone have a succinct but thorough write-up on her?

Barack Obama is the reason for much lawlessness these days. He purposefully encouraged illegals to swarm the border. There is no other reality.
