Obama Claims 'Borders Mean Something,' Illegal Immigrants Shouldn't Get Rewarded

On Friday, at the Las Vegas, Nevada high school where then-candidate Barack Obama pivoted to his "Si, Se Puede" (Yes, we can) message in 2008, President Barack Obama celebrated his executive amnesty in which he essentially declared, "Yes, I can."

After announcing his executive amnesty at the White House on Thursday evening that will give temporary amnesty and work permits to millions of illegal immigrants, Obama went to Del Sol High School in Nevada and became the salesman-in-chief. Obama will reportedly try to "aggressively" sell his executive amnesty in the coming weeks across the country, including next Tuesday in Chicago with Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) and Mayor Rahm Emanuel.

He sold his executive overreach by claiming that his executive amnesty was not "amnesty" but actually "accountability" for illegal immigrants.

"It's not amnesty," Obama claimed. "What we are offering is accountability."

Obama also said that illegal immigrants "shouldn't get rewarded for cutting in line" and conceded that "undocumented workers broke our immigration laws." He even conceded that "some are dangerous" criminals. ....

Obama then declared that he thought "borders mean something" and he believed in "secure borders."

Does anyone have a pic of him talking out of both sides of his mouth?

Pinal County, Arizona Sheriff Paul Babeu appeared on O’Reilly the other evening. I don’t watch O’Reilly very often as I feel he goes a bit overboard with the “Fair and Balanced” thing. But I’m glad I watched that show.

Sheriff Babeu made a comment that might have been lost on the casual observer but brought what’s left of my alleged brain to its feet.

According to the Sheriff, Obama’s immigration executive power grab will cover illegals who have been here for 5 years or more.

Sheriff Babeu, Joe Arpio in Maricopa County and many other law enforcement officials out there have a long and frustrating history with fedzilla that goes like this:
Deputies stop and detain suspected illegals. Suspected illegals produce documents indicating they have lived here for 5+ years. Deputies contact Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to report said illegals. ICE asks if illegals presented documents indicating 5 years of residency here. Deputy responds that they did. ICE tells deputies to treat illegals as they would AMERICAN CITIZENS! If no instant crime suspected or observed, the deputies are required to RELEASE the ILLEGALS. Do these overburdened law enforcement organizations have the resources or manpower to VERIFY the authenticity of these documents? I think you know the answer to that one!

When O’Reilly asked Babeu if his officers were presented “forged” documents in these encounters, the Sheriff laughed and responded “All the time”. The typically cunning and sinister nature of Obama’s unconstitutional, Cloward-Piven inspired action becomes obvious.

Obama’s immigration amnesty OSTENSIBLY covers only 4 to 5 million of the 11 to 20 million illegals now in the U.S.! That leaves approximately 6 to 16 million requiring DOCUMENTS necessary to “prove” their 5+ year residency. If you know your way around PhotoShop or similar software (and don’t give a damn that your actions would lead to the final destruction of the country!) at between $50 to $100 each, YOU could get rich producing phony lease/rental agreements, utility bills or other documents! Do the math: At an average of, say, $75 each, 16 million forged documents means there’s around $1.2 BILLION to be made!

BOTTOM LINE: Obama and his like-minded minions in government have effectively “legalized” all 20 million ++ illegals. Because he is doing NADA to secure the border, the ++ is to cover the millions more who will be coming in to line up at the fraudulent document production operations their friends already here will direct them to!

The only thing the border means to him or the Democrats, and sadly many Republicans, is that it’s another way to game the system for whatever their private agenda is.

He to destroy the nation.

Others the same, and to reward businesses at the expense of the nation and it’s citizens.

This is a massive act of treason.

Clumsy attempt at triangulation.

Americans deserve everything they get if they can't see through it.

If you ever watch ‘man on the streets’ interviews you find out how totally uninformed people are - and they don’t care either.

“Does anyone have a pic of him talking out of sides mouth?’’ Yeah but he’s always got it covered up by his pants.
