Its not really a complicated problem. Secure the border. Enforce the law. And over time the problem resolves itself.

A government that won’t secure the border can’t be trusted with anything more.

If O won’t enforce immigration laws, O is avoiding his duty by breaking the law!

Workplace raids: Why don’t we call it what it really is, going after the pockets of big business.

No; but it isn't the problem that Obama sees. The problem he sees is how to make these people legal...if not by November 2010, then certainly by 2012.

If Bush and McCain had their way we would have no chance of getting Obama and the Crats out now.

Below is a video of Obama in 2006, he advocates deporting illegals. Today he seems like an activist for illegals.

The flip flop makes him appear to be a puppet.

Repair the Fence - "That would make it harder for the poor innocent people that just want to make a life for themselves get into the country"

Prosecute Illegals - "RACIST"

Workplace Raids - "They just want to support their families and instill good family values"

Check Social Security Numbers - "Now that's just going to inconvenience legal Americans"

Use Local Police - "Racial Profiling"

Track Visa-holders - "That would bother and offend to many people and would not be worth it. Plus, if they become citizens that's more votes for the dems"

These are all the responses that I have heard from people, I'm sick of it. I live in Arizona about 30 miles from the border. The rest of the country doesn't see the trash they leave behind when they come here illegally, they don't hear about the crime they commit, they don't hear about the medical costs they bring on the tax payer, they don't hear about the attacks on the Border Patrol... It's just a feel good feeling for these spineless, gutless, pieces of crap in office to make it "LOOK" like they want to help these poor mistreated individuals.

"...the unwillingness of Congress to pass an amnesty law."

Bullshit Barack!

Enforce the law. You swore an oath to the people of the United States of America to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States, and enforce the laws of the land.

Selective law enforcement leads to anarchy.

So if it wasn’t enforced in the past, no need to do so now? I fault Bush 43 and Obama for not securing the border and fully implementing the US Visit program to track and deport visa overstays. After 9/11, it is a matter of national security.

Also from Human Events

• 15% of Arizona’s state prisoners are illegal immigrants;
• The number of kidnappings in Phoenix, Ariz., has exploded as the Mexican drug cartels have brought their violence North of the border;
• Two Phoenix police officers have been killed in recent years by illegal immigrants;
• A cattle rancher near the Mexican border was recently killed by a drug smuggler;
• Just last week a deputy sheriff was wounded in a gun battle with men suspected of being drug smugglers from Mexico.

Hospitals ,schools and police are also dealing with the large poplulation of illegals.

I think part of O’s reaction is also the state using its powers to counter the Fed lack of action. He seems to try and by-pass the balance of power set-up by the constitution.
