American's Need Gator Filled Moat to Protect Truth from Obama's Lies

Obama is in campaign mode.  If you thought the truth was as foreign as his father, than you haven’t heard the latest spittle that has stained the teleprompter.  Speaking before a constituency that votes well over 60% Democratic, the anointed one demonized Republicans for not granting amnesty to those poor unfortunates who were brought into the United States against their will.

Obama said with a straight face, that the border is safe and secure.  The whole premise for  “comprehensive immigration reform” is based on that simple declaration; once politicians have made that determination they will grant citizenship to all of those American lovers who fly Mexican flags and display LaRaza bumper stickers on their cars.

And how did the Anointed One come to this conclusion?  Here’s border security according to Obama:

64% more weapons seized

Apprehensions of illegals cut 40% from 2 years ago

31% more drugs seized

Southern border cities safest in nation

Now let’s take a look at some of these claims, starting with the weapons seizure.  The DOJ has been accused of selling guns to drug lords.  Here is an excerpt from a Washington Times editorial:

DOJ claims information on law-abiding gun owners might help prevent Mexican drug cartels from obtaining American weapons. At the same time, DOJ and ATF are actively resisting a subpoena from a congressional committee demanding information regarding the ATF’s own role in promoting actual sales of guns to drug lords. One of these weapons was reportedly used in a December ambush that claimed the life of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry. To date, Justice has allowed House Oversight and Government Reform staff to view a handful of redacted papers, but an April 8 letter from DOJ’s legislative affairs office claimed the rest of the material was confidential and wouldn’t be released because it was related to ongoing criminal investigations.

Now for the claim of apprehensions of illegals; the bad U.S. economy should deter anyone from coming here, but apparently there is a quota for allowing illegals to come into the country, not to mention drugs.  A Sheriff from Cochise County, Arizona made the following accusation in a House subcommittee hearing:

“There are policies in place that establish thresholds for quantities of drugs and numbers of illegal aliens before consideration for prosecution can be entertained,” Dever said in his written testimony before the Subcommittee on Border and Maritime Security. “In at least one Federal District in Texas, if you are caught smuggling less than 750 kilos (1,653 pounds) of marijuana, you will not be subjected to prosecution.”

“If you are caught smuggling fewer than 6 illegal aliens, you will not be subject to prosecution,” Dever said. “And if you are a lone illegal border crosser, you get at least seven chances before you are even charged with a misdemeanor.”

And if the border cities are safe, than why are these signs posted:

I was driving down I-77 yesterday, and something curious struck me.  To the left of me, to right of me, and in front of me I noticed that I was the only American amongst these travelers.  And Obama says are borders are secure.
