New Audio: In 2004 Obama Advocated “Trading” Border Security for Amnesty


Who’s telling the truth, Jon Kyl or Barack Obama?

Following up on Jon Kyl’s remarks, which I broke here at RedState this weekend, (that President Obama told him in a private, one-on-one meeting, in the Oval Office, that he would not secure the border because if he were to do so then “you all” would have no reason to support “comprehensive immigration reform”) and what Sen. John McCain said on the floor of the Senate today (that a few weeks ago President Obama told all 41 Republican Senators the same thing he told Sen. Kyl in the Oval Office) (hat tip to Cubachi’s blog), we learn today from Naked Emperor News (hat tip to Redstate’s Caleb Howe) that an audio tape exists from September, 2004 on which can be heard Barack Obama explaining that his strategy for solving the illegal alien immigration problem requires that “the trade off is going to have to be improved border security.”

Video below the fold. (Hat tip to Naked Emperor News!)

So, who do you think has been telling the truth?

Candidate Obama, back in 2004, and Sen. Kyl and Sen. McCain?

Or President Obama in the last few weeks?

I think it is safe to say now who’s been telling the truth.

For Liberty,
ColdWarrior, PC (that’s “precinct committeeman,” not “political child!”)
Conservatives, UNITE! CHANGE the Republican Party and save the world by UNITING INSIDE the Party as precinct committeemen. NOW! (133 days until Nov. 2 — what are YOU DOING to help get out the vote in your precinct?)

American first, conservative second, Republican precinct committeeman BY NECESSITY!

ThePrecinctProject, so you can say, “I became a precinct committeeman before it was cool.”

Obama LIED about Sestak and he LIED about focusing on jobs and PUSHED through Obamacare……he is simply a LIAR!

 

This needs to be on the Front Page! nt

Can we get that...

“We know whose *** to kick!” on a T-Shirt? That’s PERFECT!

Sorry to be off topic…

 
 

Front Page and National TV!

Send a link to this to every talking head on every station, see who’ll play it. Should be able to get some air time for it, since the flap over Kyl’s statement and the WH denial hasn’t died down yet.

 

If Obama is proven to have said he refused to enforce border security

renny (Diary) Tuesday, June 22nd at 10:51PM EST (link)

is that impeachable, not that Dems. will impeach him?

There are plenty of issues this President

dwscho Wednesday, June 23rd at 9:37AM EST (link)

has failed to handle for the benefit of America. Your comments about whether refusal to secure our borders is an impeachable offense is one. His refusal to accept help from other countries to clean-up the oil spill is another. His gross mis-management of the nations finances is certainly another. Also, his deflamatory comments about America made around the world is certainly another.

Is there a way we can help create a groundswell of support to call on Congress to initiate impeachment procedings on the basis of gross incompetence, dereliction of duty, public expression of anti-American views, etc. etc etc?

I AGREE

and we can see your skinny little butt.

 

I'm starting to wonder if our President...

kateusa Tuesday, June 22nd at 10:55PM EST (link)

is a sociopath. The man seems to have little compunction about lying or apparent concern for Americans. He has impeded cleanup, and has been utterly unaffected by the misery and devastation going on in the Gulf. Beyond the political fallout to Democrats, he has been unaffected by the millions of unemployed Americans, many of whom have been displaced by illegal aliens. And, he has refused to protect Americans despite the murders, kidnappings, mayhem, and drug cartels running amok in the border states and now threatening law enforcement. That he could even hint at withholding border security and trading American lives for amnesty is despicable.

 

Congrats CW...

on breaking such a big piece of news! Sorry you didn’t get the credit from everyone that you are due.

 

Non-denial denial

katesmith (Diary) Tuesday, June 22nd at 11:12PM EST (link)

After the Kyl incident, The White House blog entry states that securing the border requires comprehensive reform. Meaning the same thing Obama said to Kyl, ie, you can’t have one without the other.
From B. York includes quote from White House blog by Dan Pfeiffer(following).
After Kyl’s statement went viral on the Internet, the White House issued a sharp denial. “The president didn’t say that and Senator Kyl knows it,” communications director Dan Pfeiffer wrote on the White House blog. “There are more resources dedicated toward border security today than ever before,

but, as the president has made clear, truly securing the border will require a comprehensive solution to our broken immigration system.”

Kyl is not backing down. “What I said occurred, did occur,” he told an Arizona radio station. “Some spokesman down at the White House said no, that isn’t what happened at all, and then

proceeded to say we need comprehensive immigration reform to secure the border. That is their position, and all I was doing was explaining why, from a conversation with the president, why it appears that that’s their position.”"

 

He covets

pamela1631 (Diary) Tuesday, June 22nd at 11:31PM EST (link)

Power
He covets the increase of others as his own, and declares it his by right to use as he sees fit.
He covets the adoration of the masses
He covets devotions in gold and praises sung to his name.
He covets all he surveys.
He covets and in doing so, is damning us all.

He would have called the four horsemen friend and companions in his great venture of the fundamental change of America.

And he has yet to plug the hole and securing the borders is not on his dance card any time soon.

What a suprise! He told a lie!

Surprise Indeed

Oops! Pardon me, my sarcasm is also showing.

 
 

Arizona Rino's

Before you get all huffy against Obama and supporting Kyle and McCain, REALIZE it’s just DC games. McCain and Kyle will support AMNESTY after the border is secured. Obama not trusting the RINO’s wants a “Comprehensive” do it all at the same time plan, amnesty with border security and then forget the border security. The do it all at the same time plan was curiously the earlier Bush-McCain plan. It’s all pre-election pandering they will all be “friends” after Nov.2 2010.
How many times does it take to figure this out?

Agreed

edingerb Wednesday, June 23rd at 7:49PM EST (link)

You are right about them, but we can use this tussle just as effectively as any other.

The main thing is to keep reminding people about this and every other lie. And make sure they hear the word LIE. Before the 2010 elections and all the way up to 2012 (if he hasn’t been impeached, charged with/convicted of treason and hung before then.)

A little strongly worded

edingerb Wednesday, June 23rd at 7:53PM EST (link)

I don’t think we still hang traitors.

I think a number of good cases can be made for treason and a plethora of other crimes.

After his conviction, they need to get all of his speeches and put them in an endless loop and force him to listen to his own, smug voice as a part of his punishment.

A little strongly worded?

tinab Thursday, June 24th at 11:02AM EST (link)

Ahhhhh… But perhaps we SHOULD still hang traitors. Methinks that if did enforce CAPITOL PUNISHMENT for treason that perhaps it might be a teensy weensy deterrant? If it wasn’t for the fact that we’ve become a bunch of lily-livered weenies nursing our poltical correctness every hour of the day then we likely wouldn’t be in the mess we’re in.
