Obama on Illegal Aliens to Illegal Alien: We Don’t Want to Deport Them; 'We Want Them To Succeed’ Monday, March 28, 2011 By Edwin Mora
(CNSNews.com) -- When questioned by an illegal alien student today who showed him a deportation letter, President Barack Obama said he did not want to deport illegal alien students like the one who questioned him, he wanted them to succeed.
The exchange came during a town hall event sponsored by the Spanish-language television network Univision at a Washington, D.C., school. An illegal alien student, who appeared via Skype, asked: “My question for the president is, why [is the government] saying that deportations have stopped or the detention of many students like me, why is it that we are still receiving deportation letters like this one?”
Obama answered, “We have redesigned our enforcement practices under the law to make sure that we’re focusing primarily on criminals, and so our deportation of criminals are up about 70 percent. Our deportation of non-criminals are down, and that’s because we want to focus our resources on those folks who are destructive to the community.
“And for a young person like that young woman that we just spoke to who’s going to school, doing all the right things, we want them to succeed," Obama said.

Why would an illegal alien Kenyan give a damn about American citizens and their rights?

“And for a young person like that young woman that we just spoke to who’s going to school, doing all the right things, we want them to succeed," Obama said.Utter madness.
And even crazier, saying so makes one an extremist.

What Obama was really trying to say was “We don’t want to deport them, we want them to stay here so they can vote Democrat in 2012”

When questioned by an illegal-alien student today who showed him a deportation letter, President Barack Obama said he did not want to deport students like the one who questioned him, he wanted them to succeed. The exchange came during a town hall event sponsored by the Spanish-language television network Univision at a Washington, D.C., school. An illegal alien WITH a deportation letter passed the security clearance to meet with the President of the United States?
Obama is batsh*t crazy.

It’s a slippery slope.
First they enter the country illegally.
Second they steal someone’s identity to obtain “papers”.
Next they do not report cash income (wired back HOME to Mexico) while the apply for welfare services.
How many crimes are they permitted to commit “just to get a job”?

The repugnicans have done nothing to secure the border. They want third world labor prices here.

What part of his obligation to uphold the law--about which he swore an oath upon his inauguration--does he believe in and meet with proper performance? Instead, he breaks the law and court judgments right and left, and suborns further lawbreaking in others!
He's way beyond deserving impeachment and removal!

Obastard and his minions care nothing for the law except when it can be used to destroy a political enemy or destroy the country.

George Bush was just as bad. Every single president is a sell out on illegal aliens except for Ronald Reagan, he made an effort but the Amnesty Law that got written was awful. Was never enforced
