      A little historical perspective on all those deportations under Obama. At the time he was trying to secure comprehensive immigration reform, which combined heightened border security and enforcement with a path to citizenship for almost all undocumented workers & their families.

      The landmark bill got through the Senate but Republicans were saying Obama would never secure the border or crack down on illegal immigrants, even with criminal records. So he flexed and deportations increased dramatically.

      What happened next? Republicans did not make good on their end of the bargain. With rank and file conservatives in revolt, GOP leadership declined to even take up an immigration bill. Take what lesson you want from Obama’s experience.

          This leaves out A LOT. There is a complete lack of trust on the part of Americans that our leaders actually intend to stop illegal immigration. All evidence from 1986 on indicates that they are not holding up THEIR end of the bargain.

          And "landmark" bill you cite reduced illegal immigration by only 25% according to the the CBO. While increasing legal immigration by a large amount. The entire goal of the establishment is to force more immigration on Americans while disguising or obscuring what the intent is.

          No. This is not what happened. People who closely study this issue understand that the Obama enforcement numbers were bogus -- arrived at by changing the definition of "deported." How does someone at the Newspaper of Record not know this?!

          And you don't see that the Democrats and the lions share of Republicans have both been in on this together, right?

          Tell that to the people he deported! Would be great if for once you could criticize both sides for this insidious behavior. But with obama the end always justify the means.
