No worries. She says the borders already as secure as its ever been, even though her department has given up trying to measure that. Marco Rubio recently claimed that 10 million new illegals would cross the border over the next decade if theres no new guest-worker program in place. Maybe Napolitano could quantify border control that way. Are things secure enough now to ensure that only nine million of them would make it? Eight million?
I think that once people really look at the whole system and how it works, relying on one thing as a so-called trigger is not the way to go, she said at a Christian Science Monitor event. There needs to be some kind of certainty in the bill so that people can know when they can legalize and then when the pathway to citizenship, earned citizenship, will open up.
HuffPos under the impression that the Gang of Eight has agreed that improved border security is a prerequisite to the amnestization part of comprehensive immigration reform. Is that right? My understanding is that theyve agreed security wont be a prerequisite to probationary legal status. Thatll be available after the bill is enacted, provided illegals pay back taxes, show they have no criminal recorded, etc. ....
White House press secretary Jay Carney on Tuesday refused to say whether linking a pathway to citizenship to border security metrics would be a deal breaker for the White House, hours after Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said she did not think such a provision should be included in a final immigration deal. ....
I think what she was saying, and the assessment we do agree with, is that there are a variety of metrics by which you can measure and we do measure progress on border security, Carney said Tuesday.

Sorry, read the original at link. Some of them were excerpt, and some of them were Allahpundit's writing.
and the idiots in Arizona elected her GOVERNOR!!!
And McLAME too!!!
Janet Napolitano: We shouldnt wait until the the submarine dives to install the screen windows.
And we've put them in charge.
What Difference Does It Make!?!?!
No, “We” did not put them in charge.American haters, self hating Whites, parasites, fools, and “The Pepsi Generation” put them in charge. A choice that one day they will pay with their lives for making. when those that they put inpower decide that they no longer of use to them.
Rewarding the lawbreakers while punishing people who want to come here legally. What could possibly go wrong? /sarc
That does it... I am moving to the moon...
At least if we all move to the moon we can launch rocks at the earth and laugh at the socialist fools for entertainment....
>>> Holy Shiiite!
IF Napolitano is indifferent about the border security, disband DHS then.
Why keep the agency and her fat job?
Probably true, but that's not really saying much; it's never been very secure.
Still, the question remains unasked (by our "stellar" news media), "Why should we legalize people who came here illegally? Just because the majority of them tend to vote Democrat?" I'd like to see a Dem or "media" person admit to that!
"The [immigration] bill will not flood our cities with immigrants. ItYou all lie.
will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the
standards of admission. It will not cause American workers to lose
their jobs."
- Ted Kennedy, 1965
"This amnesty will give citizenship to only 1.1 to 1.3 million illegal
aliens. We will secure the borders henceforth. We will never again
bring forward another amnesty bill like this."
- Ted Kennedy, 1986
"Now it is time for action. 2007 is the year we must fix our broken
system."
- Ted Kennedy, 2007
Yeah, because by THAT time, we'll BE Mexico.
You know what...
Maybe we should start “undocumented businesses” and then when arrested take it all the way tot he supreme court saying that if they are not enforcing the immigration laws why should they be enforcing business laws....
Maybe I should drive an “undocumented car” live in an “undocumented house” and get healthcare at an “undocumented hospital”, and maybe work at an “undocumented job”....
Since laws are not being enforced we are currently living in an anarchy, an anarchy caused by selective enforcement and government beracracy.
Where did they find this corpulent idiot? Under a rock? God...a brain is a terrible thing to waste, and she shows us the result. MEGAHACK!!
TK is now where he belongs. Much too late. Hope he’s sweating his ass off.
Or, put another way:
Why keep her fat and the agency job?
Leftists are filthy people.
Maybe we should just give up our citizenship but continue to live here. Then, we could also be “undocumented” citizens. LOL!
If we do not close the borders first the Hispanics and Democrats in Congress in 10 years will have to pass another amnesty.
When the border is properly secured a Gila Monster won’t be able to cross without being caught.
