(in-ep-toc'-ra-cy) - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

Mr Obama: Keeping Your Border Safe


From FoxNews.com (thanks, Chris!):

An Arizona sheriff says U.S. Border Patrol officials have repeatedly told him they have been ordered to reduce -- at times even stop -- arrests of illegal immigrants caught trying to cross the U.S. border.

Cochise County Sheriff Larry Dever told FoxNews.com that a supervisor with the U.S. Border Patrol told him as recently as this month that the federal agency’s office on Arizona's southern border was under orders to keep apprehension numbers down during specific reporting time periods.

And the truth will out:

The senior supervisor agent is telling me about how their mission is now to scare people back,” Dever said in an interview with FoxNews.com. “He said, ‘I had to go back to my guys and tell them not to catch anybody, that their job is to chase people away. … They were not to catch anyone, arrest anyone. Their job was to set up posture, to intimidate people, to get them to go back.”

Dever said his recent conversation with the Border Patrol supervisor was the latest in a series of communications on the subject that he has had with various federal agents over the last two years. Dever said he plans to relay the substance of these conversations when he testifies under oath next month before the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs.

“I will raise my hand to tell the truth and swear to God, and nothing is more serious or important than that,” he said. “I’m going to tell them that, here’s what I hear and see every day: I had conversation with agent A, B, C, D and this is what they told me.”

Oddly enough, USBP "officials" had a different take on the matter:

Dever’s charges were vigorously denied by a commander with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Finally, Big Sis weighs in:

There is a perception that the border is worse now than it ever has been," Napolitano said at the El Paso border crossing last week. "That is wrong. The border is better now than it ever has been."

As everyone knows, Big Sis always tells the truth.

Read the rest of the story; other people may disagree with that just a tad.

Is there anyone in the Obama Administration with any credibility? I can't think of one. Maybe Gates.

There IS a twisted logic behind what he's being told... if arrests are down, it MUST be safer, since arrests are down... lather, rinse, repeat...

They are only coming here to get guns from the ATF and DEA! Really, I'm sure they will all go back home very happy with their US Government approved weapons...

And when a border 'incident' starts to see those US Government supplied arms used against US Government Border Patrol and/or local police, why I'm sure the US Government will swear it didn't know what it was doing.

NFO, that's what I think the point might be. Arrests are down (crows Big Sis!) = the border is the best its ever been!

AJ: of COURSE that's the way it will be. Of course.
