He's not mocking Republicans who want the border secured, he's mocking Republicans who constantly move the goal posts.
considering that you claim to beleive that all politicians suck, I'm guessing that what you you are on Obama's side on this one then?
Sand. . .er. . . Diane. . . Not a shame. Walls don't work in the long run. Which is not to say that they can't be effective in specific zones. Better to target the businesses that attract and exploit the migrants. Deal with those, and there will be no incentive to come to the US. Also, your solipsism brings several thoughts to mind: Are the Republicans beyond reproach? Is making fun of them off limits? If so, why? Are the Republicans such whiny little bitches that they can't handle a POTUS doing what all POTUS's do to the opposing party? And. . . have the Republicans not done the same thing--in return--to this president? ~String
The whole immigration problem is retarded. Building walls and beefing up boarder security has been ineffective, yet that is all they think they can do. The problem is they aren't targeting the cause of the problem, which is illegal immigrants come to the USA because they can get jobs, make it so they can't get jobs, by targeting the employers, fine and even imprison anyone who hires an undocumented worker, and work for illegals will dry up quickly, and illegals will go home. After that legal immigration and foreign worker programs should provide for anyones dreams.
If the immigrants learn to speak the language (English); get jobs; and honor our history and traditions; then I have no problem with immigration.
We have enough citizens here. We don't *need* immigrants--especially illegal ones. We have a shortage of jobs. When plants are raided and illegals taken off jobs, lines form of real citizens applying for said jobs. Obama wants citizenship for all the illegals because they will vote for him.
Obama Wants 12 Million Illegals to Get Citizenship http://economictimes.indiatimes.com...-immigration-overhaul/articleshow/8223018.cms http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88jb4zWw1RY http://www.huffingtonpost.com/social/tcsosebee/obama-pressing-for-immigration_n_859720_87705776.html
The only source that repeated your talking point was Newsmax, the internet equivalent of Fox, the rest only mentioned a path to citizenship, which is something even Ronald Reagan endorsed. Many children that grew up here and go to school here should be considered for citizenship.
So then "Well Ronald Reagan wanted to give millions of illegals citizenship." Has a nice snappy ring to it.
Not only did Ronald Reagan support it, so did George II and a number of Republican senators including the former Republican presidential nominee, John McCain. It was that great Republican icon Ronald Reagan who signed the massive amnesty for illegal aliens too.
Presidents who will not support/enforce our laws regarding illegal immigration have no business in office.
Deportation of illegal immigrants increases under Obama administration That article is from late last July. Has Obama drastically reversed course in the last 10 months and I just missed it?
If you have tens of millions of people blatantly ignoring a nation's borders and what it stands for, then that nation's sovereignty is most certainly under attack.
No, not really. Doing one thing right while fucking up everything else doesn't earn the vote of a rational person.
He has something to lose: the support from the tens of millions of Americans who don't want amnesty. And only a fool would believe that this group is solely made up of TEA Party folks.
