Napolitano: Obama’s taken ‘most serious’ actions to secure border in ‘history’ [VIDEO]
The Daily Caller ^ | 01/30/2012 | Nicholas Ballasy

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano praised President Barack Obama’s administration for taking the “most serious” and “sustained actions” to secure the border in U.S. history.

“The Obama administration has undertaken the most serious and sustained actions to secure our borders in our nation’s history. And it is clear from every measure we currently have that this approach is working,” she said in her second annual “State of America’s Homeland Security” address Monday at the National Press Club.

Her remarks come after the Obama administration announced that it will begin reducing the number of National Guard troops on the U.S.-Mexico border. (RELATED: McCain bashes Obama border cuts)

According to the Justice Department’s “National Drug Threat Assessment” for 2011, Mexican drug cartels remain a major threat to America’s security.

The report says the National Drug Intelligence Center assesses with “high confidence” that Mexican-based cartels “control distribution of most of the heroin, marijuana, and methamphetamine available in the United States,” and production of these drugs in Mexico “appears to be increasing.”

In her address, Napolitano also pushed for passage of the DREAM Act.

Actually, she speaks the truth; but not for the reason stated. brocko has actually remedied the border situation by wrecking the US economy so bad it makes Mexico look good.

I guess that by suing the state of Arizona because they want to enforce immigration laws is more than anyone else in history has done to secure the border. They forget the regular people aren't stupid like their voters. What a joke.

The propaganda is “fast and furious”. The Administration wants the public to believe their dream world.

I would REALLY like to know what sort of drug cocktails are issued to these people when they first report for their Obama Regime job, that makes them so delusional that their reality has no grounding in the normal world.

she doesn’t worry about how foolish she looks or what an effing liar we all know she is, her skin is so thick it’s referred to as hide.

I am from Arizona and supported Rick Perry and will always support Joe Arpaio. Nappy and this administration makes me ill.

Romney’s buying of the election so far also makes me ill.

The United States is really at a crossroad at this time. We have already dumbed down the education system. I could go on and on, but......
