Obama Claims He’s Done All GOP Wanted on Border Security, Now They Must Pass Amnesty Tuesday, May 10, 2011 By Fred Lucas
Obama lame duck
(CNSNews.com) – President Barack Obama told a border crowd in Texas today that he had addressed the border security concerns of Republicans, and now was calling on GOP lawmakers to support his push to grant legal status to the nation’s estimated 12 million illegal aliens. Obama made his remarks in El Paso, which is just across the border from Juarez, one of the most violent cities in Mexico.
“So, we have gone above and beyond what was requested by the very Republicans who said they supported broader reform as long as we got serious about enforcement,” Obama said to a supportive crowd. “But even though we’ve answered these concerns, I suspect there will be those who will try to move the goal posts one more time.”
“They’ll say we need to triple the border patrol,” said the president. “Or quadruple the border patrol. They’ll say we need a higher fence to support reform. Maybe they’ll say we need a moat. Or alligators in the moat.”
The president offered essentially the same proposal that was considered by Congress in 2005 and 2007.
“The question is whether those in Congress who previously walked away in the name of enforcement are now ready to come back to the table and finish the work we’ve started,” he said. “We have to put the politics aside.”
At one point in the speech, Obama said, “They wanted a fence,” which prompted boos from the crowd before he said, “Well, that fence is now basically complete.”

what’s he been smokin’?!!!
Impeach the lying POS
The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
He lies. He campaigns. Theres no difference.
I hope he continyas with this jive talk. His poll numbers will tank. We don’t need no stinking illegal aliens when our own people have 10% unemployment rates.
A vile man with a vile philosophy speaking lies to the stupid and ignorant. He will get his just rewards.
Pass that infliction along to Barry.
PAWLEEZE!
Alligators! Moat! Grand idea, ole chap!
Seriously, get the border effectively sealed to at least the do-it-yourself people smugglers (99%+ of the problem) before even talking about an official policy change.
He’s right. He’s done all the Republicans wanted.
But he has not done what is right and what the people want.’
Give the guy a break. He has seven more states to deal with than past presidents.
