Immigrant rights groups blasted President Obama on Wednesday for breaking what they called his "personal commitment" to change Bush-era immigration raids after U.S. authorities raided an engine machine shop in Washington state and detained illegal immigrants.
The Obama administration itself seemed taken aback by the raid by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, with Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano vowing to Congress that she would "get to the bottom of this."

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano vowing to Congress that she would "get to the bottom of this."In other words she will see to it that aliens run loose with impunity.

After seeing her reaction to the news, I suspect it will be the last raid we see.

They were illegal aliens so what's next is deportation.

Check out what one of these dildos did in Phoenix today.
According to Sheriff's Office spokesman Doug Matteson, one man was cited for carrying a concealed weapon after he made verbal threats against Arpaio. He reportedly was also carrying handcuffs and a Los Angeles police department badge.
Put that boy on "the path to citizenship!" He'll make a great "U.S. citizen." A crappy American but a great "U.S. citizen."

While this may be (I hope it is) a nail in Obama’s coffin, the problem is that the Democrats can do a tremendous amount of damage by the mid-term elections. In all likelihood, the nation — or what will be left of it — will never recover, if it survives physically.
To: ihatedemocrats
ICE agents simply enforce the law based on gang-sourced tips, with good evidence of legal violations, and its the ICE agents who are in trouble. We are all in trouble with Obama in charge. Look for the nutwork news orgs to all hide this one.

Last week it was an illegal who impregnated a 9 year old girl who walked out of a Phoenix courthouse.
