THE MESSAGE

President Obama spoke of "the twisted logic that caused these events" when he spoke of the 2009 rampage that killed 17 in Ft. Hood. He is likely to use similar words today when he memorializes those killed and wounded in the Arizona shootings last week.

But the President has no right to convey such thoughts when he, himself, refuses to enforce immigration laws that he is being paid to enforce and that is his responsibility to enforce under the Constitution, which he swore to uphold when he took office. That failure on his part allows a flood of criminals and terrorists to pour into our country, endangering our safety, and contributing greatly to the ever increasing frequency of criminal violence in our country.

The first thing we ought tell the world is that our laws to protect our lives and our way of life will be enforced...rigidly, vigorously, uncompromisingly.

That is the message the President ought announce today...and begin imposing today. It would be the best way to honor the victims in Arizona.
