WASHINGTON (AP) - The Obama administration has met many of the border security benchmarks Congress set in 2007 as a prerequisite to immigration reform and now it's time to change the law, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said Friday.

Napolitano, designated by President Barack Obama to lead the administration's immigration reform efforts, said many members of Congress had said they could support immigration reform, but only after border security improved, Napolitano said.

"Fast forward to today, and many of the benchmarks these members of Congress set in 2007 have been met," she said in a speech to the Center for American Progress, a liberal think tank.

The Border is more secure, the budget has been balanced, the Middle East problems have been solved, Social Security is sound, our country is more united.........

...[border security]...as a prerequisite to immigration reform and now it’s time to change the law.”....

Of course. Exactly what they would think and say, with the confusion to be blamed on those who continually shouted border security “FIRST”.

I doubt ANYONE meant..secure our border and then we’ll vote for amnesty.

“The laws themselves need to be reformed,” she said. “

No. The laws themselves need to be ENFORCED!!!

Attrition through enforcement. Nothing else is acceptable.

Can you imagine the collective sigh of relief that went up from Arizona on the day she left? Finally they weren't the only ones to bear the burden of her imbecility.

Can Napolitano cook? I mean, she has to be useful at something!

Dang, that was easy, and cheap. Why didn’t we think of that before?

IMO, "liberal think tank" is an oxymoron.
