President Obama’s promise to put 1,200 new troops on the border is as empty as the national treasury. Turns out those troops won’t be used to stop the flow of illegal aliens.
AFP has a full report on Obama’s empty promise:
US National Guard troops being sent to the Mexican border will be used to stem the flow of guns and drugs across the frontier and not to enforce US immigration laws, the State Department said Wednesday.
The clarification came after the Mexican government urged Washington not to use the additional troops to go after illegal immigrants.
President Barack Obama on Tuesday authorized the deployment of up to 1,200 additional troops to border areas but State Department spokesman Philip Crowley told reporters, “It’s not about immigration.”
He said the move was “fully consistent with our efforts to do our part to stem, you know, violence, to interdict the flow of dangerous people and dangerous goods — drugs, guns, people.”
He said the extra troops would be used to free up civilians engaged in support functions so that law enforcement personnel can be increased along the 2,000-mile-long (3,200 kilometer) border.
How can you explain Obama’s constant kowtowing to the president of a corrupt third world country against the overwhelming opposition of the American people?
Felipe Calderon must have photos of Barack Obama in compromising positions with farm animals. It’s the only possible answer.

Obama couldn't find his balls with both hands in clear weather on the best day of his life. I smell vinegar every time I see him on TV.
@John
They'll be handing out stockings and chocolate bars and flowers.
Oh, and signing them up for membership to the Democratic party and registering them to vote in any blue state -- vote twice if they want.
Um, Um, Um .... REMEMBER IN NOVEMBER .... Um, Um, Um
So what do the troops do as illegals come across, hand them water bottles and say welcome?
@SCDiver:
Or carnival cotton candy ?
Hey, I agree with ya, but back off the cotton candy man! LMAO At least some people "like" cotton candy!!!
Churros! You Gringos!
Hehheh--yeh, that's actually a very good comparison. All puff and no substance.
Once again, Obama's proving to have all the substance of a soy burger.
LOL!!
Obama and Calderon are butt buddies? Didn't Congress just repleal "Don't Ask, Don't Tell?"
Perhaps he's ordered the National Guard to prevent Arizona from enforcing their new law.
Doh! I miss-spelled,Richie Daleys vernacular must be rubbing off on me dammit,I meant spinal-bifida...Stick that up your you know what Richie!
Obama knows damn well if he does do anything significant to stop the tide of illegals coming into OUR country,the labor unions (mostly the restaurant and hotel crowd),which we all know damn well are run by organized crime,will either put a hit on him,or at the very least,turn off the cash spigot come election time because they need their cheap exploitable, & compliant (too chicken-shit to bitch about rediculous "union fees" and not getting payed overtime for working over 40 hours,(oops that one might get a hit put on me,oh well)...Typical Chicago (scumbag) politician (see George Ryan,the puppet master himself Richie Daley & his whole family which of course are on the city's payroll for doing nothing.Rod bag-o-shit blagoyevich,the list goes on and on and on.I lived in Illinois for over 25 years and looking back now,the best thing I did was leave for Florida.I will never return to that corrupt stink-hole.Anyone that thinks Chicago is a beutiful city never had to live there,unless maybe they were Lincoln park yuppie snobs.The rest of the city is a cesspool of crime and violence.Oh but lets not forget,It the guns fault! BAHAHAHA.Mayor Daley you are a f***ing idiot! I think maybe you may have snia-bifida as well and just dont know it
This doesn't surprise me in the least. He doesn't want to offend Mexico. He doesn't want to offend Islamic terrorists. He doesn't want to offend North Korea. About the only thing Obama is willing to offend continuously... is the American people.
