Border Security Laughing Matter to Obama in 2011

In a speech near the U.S.-Mexico border in El Paso, Texas on May 10, 2011, President Barack Obama noted the steps taken by his administration to strengthen border security, but said Republicans in Congress were never satisfied and mocked that they will want a “higher fence” and then “a moat,” and then “alligators in the moat.”

“So, here’s the point,” said Obama, speaking outside to a crowd in El Paso. “I want everybody to listen carefully to this. 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. All the stuff they asked for, we’ve done.”

“But even though we’ve answered these concerns, I’ve got to say I suspect there are still going to be some who are trying to move the goal posts on us one more time,” said the president.

Obama lies everytime his lips are moving. He has never tried to secure the border.

This has been going on for 30 years, it has escaladed during Obama's reign due to his policies.

People are getting apprehended at the border instead of crossing undetected.

That means that the border IS secure.

10.35 Don't kid yourself about apprehension, the kids are simply turning themselves in. Under Obama, that entitles them to shelter, food, medicine, clothes and transportation into the USA. They then disappear.

Hasta manana Senor!

BULLSH!T you dumb moron. I bet you are a big Obama supporter. Are you at the border as we speak? NO! You just run your mouth in defense of Obama because you drink Kool Aid and you can't think for yourself.

The border is not secure. Thousands of kids are turning themselves in at the border. Then they receive food, medical and other needed services at taxpayers expense. Then they are transported to many different state even Maryland and turned loose to be a burden on that particular state, They should all be sent back to where they came from.
