Obamnesty's Secret Catch-And-Release Order

Border Security: President Obama's executive amnesty doesn't just spare the illegals who "mow our lawns" and "make our beds." It also springs from local jails criminals held for deportation, putting them back on the street.

In a just-released fact sheet, the White House describes Obama's "immigration accountability executive action" as "cracking down on illegal immigration." The president's actions, it intones, "will help secure the border" and increase the chances that illegals "will be caught and sent back."

In fact, Obamanesty increases the chances they'll commit dangerous crimes in our cities.

According to a new memo from Department of Homeland Security chief Jeh Johnson to ICE officials, the administration is gutting an immigration enforcement program — Secure Communities — responsible for identifying and deporting tens of thousands of dangerous criminals who are in the country illegally and already in police custody for other crimes.

Didn't hear about that during the president's speech? That's because he doesn't want you to know about it.

"I am directing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to discontinue Secure Communities," Johnson wrote in his three-page memo. This is a bad omen for public safety and national security. Secure Communities links ICE with sheriffs' offices across the country and is one of the main ways criminal immigrants are ID'd and deported.

Last year, more than eight in 10 illegal immigrants kicked out of the U.S. had been convicted of crimes committed in the U.S. And most of them were ID'd through the Secure Communities program, which was started under the Bush administration.

Now that Obama's scrapping it, what's left of immigration enforcement? Answer: not much. The program was so effective that pro-illegal immigration activist groups, led by La Raza and Acorn clones, had lobbied the White House for years to kill it...

These are the actions of a government at war with its own citizens and which intends to change the population to one that is more accustomed to a corrupt banana republic.

Well said, there’s no doubt about it.

The turkey warned our entire nation when he ran in 2008 of that and the idiots elected him in spite of it.

"The president's actions, it intones, "will help secure the border" and increase the chances that illegals "will be caught and sent back."

I hope the incoming congress can pass legislation that will assist the president to those ends.
