Napolitano Rejects ‘Secure Border’ Precondition for Progress on Immigration Reform Bill

ABC News’ Devin Dwyer reports:

An animated Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano today said the need to intensify efforts to secure the southwest border should not be a precondition for progress on comprehensive immigration reform.

She made the comments after at least one Senate Republican suggested the White House was holding off on implementing stronger enforcement measures so that they could be a bargaining chip to lure Republicans to the table.

“The notion that you’re going to somehow seal the border and only at that point will you discuss immigration reform – that is not an answer to the problem,” she said.

“The border is as secure now as it’s ever been, but we know we can always do more and that will always be the case,” she said. “It’s a big border. It is 1,960 miles across that southwest border. It’s some of the roughest toughest geographical terrain in the world across that border… You’re never going to totally seal the border.”

    That wo—–man is sickening. They all are. Where and the heck are the warriors? I am beginning to understand very clearly why the MOST HIGH used a 17 year old girl to lead the French to victory way back then. It is pathetic that these people even get air time. I’m sorry I forgot the Zionist, Jesuits own our media. They own everything you are allowed to know. Even in your churches. You say you know the truth but FATHER wants me to tell you that you are clueless to the truth. You still believe the earth is only 6,000 years old and you think you know how everything came about, but you don’t know. May HE the MOST HIGH help us. Have you ever wondered why Christ only called HIM FATHER? There is a reason folks.
