Axelrod: no prez tougher on border than Obama

The outcry over illegal immigration in border states notwithstanding, President Barack Obama has taken as strict an approach to the issue as any other president, White House Senior Adviser David Axelrod insisted Sunday.

"No administration has been tougher on enforcement," Axelrod said on "Fox News Sunday." "We have more manpower there than ever before--more equipment drones, helicopters, airplanes. We're doing this in a smart, more efficient way and we're produing better results."

Host Chris Wallace then said "there were some facts and figures that contradict what" Axelrod said. However, when interviewing Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Ariz) moments later on the same show, Wallace took a different tack. "The fact is that the Obama White House does have a story to tell...Hasn't this president improved border security?" the Fox host said to Kyl.

"There have been improvements," Kyl conceded. "There have been additional people sent to the border. Nobody woduld deny that. There is a federal government effort going on here but it's not enough.…The fact that you’ve done more doesn’t mean that you’ve done enough."

Come on, nut up Kyl.

He should have come out guns blazing on this issue.

Yeah ... the the sheeple probably blame Bush for it too!

No Pres has hated this country more or been more aggressive in literally destroying our country than Obama. No Pres has been more of a laughing stock of the world than Obama either.

Actually, Axelrod is telling the truth.

Only, the truth is that many of our presidents have failed to protect the border.

So, yeah, President Obama is just as tough on the border as every other border failure president we’ve had.

Axelrod the Kapo could do stand up comedy on SNL.

Even if true, it would take a lot of research to verify that. And it would be really hard to determine which president starting with GHWB has done the most to make sure we had no effective immigration law enforcement.

It that's true, and it actually may be, it's testimony to the woeful inaction on securing the border of all administrations, including the present regime.

This piece needs some serious editing. Total scribble. Can’t understand if it was Wallace or Axelrod speaking.

Other than that we know Ax is liar. And Kyl can be counted on as a squish.

The regime said it, sooo ..., soon we will hear this?

“NOW HEAR THIS! ! Operation WetBack II Will Commence At 0 Dark 30 This Morning. That Is All.”

I can dream, can’t I?

Newly uncovered correspondence quotes a purported communist activist claiming he served as political mentor to President Obama’s Senior Adviser David Axelrod. The correspondence is highlighted in a brand-new book that exposes evidence of Axelrod working closely with a pair of communist activists who boasted of aiding Axelrod’s political career..

It seems that all of Obama’s little trolls have communist back grounds..what are we going to do about it folks? These trolls will stop at nothing to get their god reeclected and that includes opening the borders and letting all the illegals come in so they can vote for the Muslim Commie..

James K. Polk was probably tougher, he was President during the Mexican-American War.
