Impeachment Time? Obama Holds Border Security Hostage
David Horowitz's NewsReal Blog ^ | June 21, 2010 | Matthew Vadum

President Obama told a U.S. senator he will refuse to do his duty and enforce America’s immigration laws unless Congress cuts a deal with him to allow amnesty for illegal aliens.

The president told Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) that he will not make efforts to secure America’s porous borders until such time as Congress passes an amnesty for the estimated 12 million illegal aliens in the country, Connie Hair of Human Events reports.

Kyl said Obama pointed out to him in a private meeting that Democrats would lose their leverage for an amnesty if the government stepped up security at the border. “The problem is if we secure the border, then you all won’t have any reason to support comprehensive immigration reform,” Obama allegedly said.

I have a few choice words for Obama, but it would get me banned.

Only Presidents can be impeached. BO/BS cannot be impeached since he has not fulfilled the natural born citizenship requirement in Article 2 Section 1 of the Constitution and therefore is not President.

That’s basically McCain’s long time stance. He’s held border security hostage to amnesty for years! We cannot allow another amnesty for 20 some million illegal aliens, which is what Obama, McCain and Kyle want.

I see McCain and Kyl went to the border this weekend. And that McCain is up to his usual ‘it’s not amnesty’ hedging with we’ll let the border governors say it’s secure before amnesty....Except for Brewer, they’ll all say it’s secure!

[snip]McCain thinks immigration reform should only take place after the border has been secured to a point where the governors of the border states certify that it is secured, he said.

“None of us ever will forget that we cherish our Spanish heritage in Arizona, Spanish was spoken before English, we cherish immigrants into our country,” McCain said, in his closing remarks. “The reason why America is the great nation it is, is because of a constant flow of new blood and vitality that’s coming to our country, but it must come legally.”

Hell yes it’s time for impeachment, but there is NO dimrat politician who will go down that bunny trail. The stimulus money (our taxes) are being used as a carrot to buy their loyalty. If the repubs win a majority in November, they don’t have the cajones to bring about impeachment. I think we are stuck for a while.

“The problem is if we secure the border, then you all won’t have any reason to support( the kind of) comprehensive immigration reform (we want to see implemented),”

Semantics, it’s all in the missing words.

"...for the estimated 12 million illegal aliens in the country..."

More like 30M. They breed like rabbits.

Well, this is disgusting and outrageous, etc., but does anyone remember the Secure Fence Act of 2006? That act provided for the construction of 700 miles of double chain link fencing along the US-Mexico border.

And what happened after that bill became law? Do we have 700 miles of double fencing? This crap has been going on for years and the last Republican president was no better than Obama on securing the border. And W’s administration just danced around and played games, and was never serious about implementing the Secure Fence Act. They had two full years to implement it, and did everything they could to not implement it.

Both parties are responsible for the current situation on our southern border, and John Kyl deserves no medals or letters of commendation concerning his stances on border security and his pro-amnesty efforts since being reelected in 2006.

This is an effort to get Juan McCain reelected. Kyl and McCain are not the place to look for leadership on any aspect of the immigration issue, unless it’s another big amnesty push after the August 24th Arizona primary vote, whether McCain wins for loses.

If Barack Obama started rounding up and killing only liberals, by the 100’s of millions, the current Congress and Senate (made up of those same liberals) would not impeach this Pres__ent.

If Obama can’t be impeached, what do you suggest to get rid of him?

Impeachment is far to light a punishment

It has been happening for more than a year. Go to www.americangrandjury.org for more information. I suggest reading it thoroughly as there is a lot to digest.
