Today on the Glenn Beck radio program he and his team played audio from a recent Obama speech on immigration. I heard this on the way to work and feel compelled to have as many people as possible listen to it. In just a few sentences Obama manages to lie, make stuff up, impose morals and quote scripture. I thought all of that was bad, at least according to the left. It sure is hard to keep things straight under the rule of liberal hypocrisy.
This excerpt is from Glenn Beck’s Insider Extreme access, I highly recommend it. You get live video access to his three-hour radio program, plus a fourth hour of extra content, plus lots of other informative stuff. I’m not paid to say that, I just want to give credit where appropriate. I don’t think he will mind me sharing this short segment in an effort to get the word out about this excellent example Obama’s ridiculous stance on the border and the hypocrisy and double-standard of our liberal administration. If he asks me to take this down I will certainly do so.

Senator Hutchison,
I recently visited Ground Zero for the first time since the 9/11 attacks. I was most affected not by the lack of the towers but by the display of childrens paintings near the site. Two samples are included in this letter.
I wept out loud when I first saw these images. As a father of children aged three and six my job is to do everything humanly possible to protect my children from harm. The government is supposed to play the same role for its citizens. Failure to enforce current laws and thus allow, and even encourage, the open flow of illegal aliens from many nations into our country is a slap in the face to the founding fathers, our soldiers and our patriotic citizenry. Why isn’t our border being secured?
There WILL be another day like 9/11. To think that this is paranoia is blatant denial of an obvious truth. While officials meet to discuss what else citizens cannot carry onto a plane, people from middle-eastern countries that want to kill us (irregardless of our political affiliation) are entering our homeland unabated. They are planning their next attacks on our water supplies, sports arenas, shopping malls and office buildings.
How can you sleep at night knowing that when, not if, but WHEN the next disaster takes place that you have done nothing to make our nation safer? Do you realize the political, personal and legal wrath that awaits all currently elected politicians that will have American blood on their hands when the next 9/11 happens? I literally lose sleep thinking that there is NOTHING I can do as a citizen of a country whose government is supposedly OF the people, BY the people and FOR the people.
In March of this year you stated “We need to enhance security along the border and in the interior, but we also need comprehensive immigration reform.” Apparently it appears that the Senate views border security and amnesty as a single issue. This is NOT an immigration issue and should NOT be tied to amnesty or other Mexican-related topics. This is about NATIONAL SECURITY.
Why must bills be passed with strict dependencies on other topics? Current immigration laws are sufficient but our law keeping forces are not. On this you and your constituents agree. But, to ignore our porous border and suffer another attack while trying to figure out how to appease the Mexican population and those unpatriotic businesses that fuel the flow of illegal aliens would be analogous to a doctor ignoring a severed limb and trying to save the patient by offering him an aspirin and some water. The continuing flow of blood or illegal aliens will kill each victim.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE draft and pass legislation that secures our borders before we suffer the pain of another 9/11. It is not impossible, it is not difficult, and it is not a campaign issue. It is a matter of time, a matter of life and death. Let the citizens of other countries take a back seat for the time being and focus on the citizens that put you into office in the first place.
The president’s own multi-front war on America is keeping political watchdogs busy enough, but we need to stay alert and deal with every attack the left throws out there.
As posted at the Federation for American Immigration Reform, open borders advocate Congressman Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) will introduce a bill in the U.S. House of Representatives that, if passed, would grant amnesty to millions of illegal aliens in the United States. According to La Raza and Gutierrez’ own web site the bill will be introduced on Tuesday.
Legalizing millions of illegal immigrants will not help the more than 15 million American citizens that are currently unemployed. Contact your representative and tell them that you opposed any form of amnesty, especially when so many Americans are already out of work.
