Obama’s Silence On 5 Americans Murdered in Mexico Becomes Deafening
David Horowitz's NewsReal Blog ^ | M. Catharine Evans

Posted on 11/05/2010 7:33:07 AM PDT by Michael van der Galien

The first family, along with an entourage of 3000, head for India on Friday.

The traveler-in-chief leaves the United States with no statement on the bloodbath that took place this past week in the border city of Ciudad Juarez, roughly two miles from El Paso and 5 minutes by car from the center of the Texas city.

Last May, Mexican President Felipe Calderon, visited Mr. Obama at the White House. The two stood united against Arizona’s audacious attempt to protect its borders and save American lives. The Department Of Justice led by Eric Holder sued the state in July claiming that SB1070 violated individuals’ civil rights. None other than President Obama laid the groundwork for the lawsuit when he said this on May 19th:

We’re examining any implications especially for civil rights because in the United States of America, no law abiding person — be they an American citizen, illegal immigrant, or a visitor or tourist from Mexico — should ever be subject to suspicion simply because of what they look like.

The following day foreign leader Calderon addressed the Congress stating:

It is a law that not only ignores a reality that cannot be erased by decree but also introduces a terrible idea using racial profiling as a basis for law enforcement…core values we all care about are breached.

Calderon received a standing ovation from the Democrats for his objection to SB1070, a bill that merely enforces long-standing federal immigration laws. Last spring Obama colluded with Calderon to initiate the fight against Governor Jan Brewer and other law enforcement officials in Arizona. Their comprehensive immigration reform has long been a code phrase that includes amnesty for illegal aliens, open borders and entitlements.

What could 0bama say? I mean, it is pretty much common knowledge at this point that traveling into Messico for any reason is hazardous to your health.

“Urgent national security issues like illegal immigration and brutal murders of American citizens will not deter the Obama family from spending a cool $2 billion visiting India.”

This is unsubstantiated and very probably untrue, sure wish people would check the facts before using them in argument. As it stands, the White House doesn’t back up the original claim allegedly made by an Indian official and reported by an alleged journalism school graduate.

No one is discussing the terrorists walking across our border or those residing in Mexico waiting to cross!!!

The new House must be woken up to this reality. Anyone know how we can do this?

Calling Col. West! Freepers that worked on campaigns, please contact whomever you know that can help make this an issue. One would think that Americans being murdered in Mexico or on our border is an issue!

Apparently, the King and Queen going to India is more important or perhaps a round of golf. The GOP should use any extra monies to run national TV ads exposing this disaster. Exposure, exposure, exposure is what Liberals detest and fear the most. Always, always remember that.

Now listen if anything is done to the Mexican savages then Obama would not get his monthly kick back of drug money he gets every month..What other reason is there that the oaf doesn’t do anything about our borders..Also his law sute is still going on against Arizona..Now that one really needs to be looked at closely..If the borders were not secured then he would get more money,a;pmg with his communist Czars..They are all getting money..

Looks like I’ll be spending quite a bit of time in Mexico City over the next few months. Anyone with local knowledge have any suggestions?

What does he care?

He's suing Arizona to prevent them from securing our border.
He's allowing Hilary to sic the UN on Arizona for wanting to carry out a very common sense law.

“Twelve Americans are murdered every day by illegal aliens, according to statistics released by Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa. If those numbers are correct, it translates to 4,380 Americans murdered annually by illegal aliens. That's 21,900 since Sept. 11, 2001.”

I'm certain that the actions of Obama indicate that his attitude must be, “What's five more? Big deal. I have to push my hated, unwanted, Obamacare plans, and other Marxist ideas. I need to cause utility prices to necessarily skyrocket based on good old Al Gore's highly successful hoax, and I have this really cool trip planned for India at the the Taj Mahal. Now that's really livin’!

Too bad about those dead guys...I guess.”

Oh no not racial profiling!

That is SO much worse than having 12 Americans killed by illegal aliens every day.
