I wonder what Mitch means by "more than an assurance" from Napolitano, considering that the govt. has never honored enforcement provisions in any amnesty in any meaningful way?

McConnell then says he'll look to Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano for more than an "assurance": “I’m going to need more than an assurance from Secretary Napolitano, for instance, that the border is secure to feel comfortable about the situation on the border. Too often recently, we have been reminded that as government grows it becomes less responsible to the American people, and fails to perform basic functions either through incompetence or willful disregard of the wishes of Congress. Our continued failure to secure major portions of the border not only makes true immigration reform far more difficult; it presents an urgent threat to national security.

Mitch is a lying sack of shiite. Nappy told a senate committee in April, regarding border enforcement:

“Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano declared that she, President Barack Obama and other political officials at the top of this administration have the authority to decide which laws to enforce, and which ones to ignore.”
