Obama’s Political Gesture Is Good Sign — But Not Close To What Is Necessary To Secure Borders

Pres. Obama definitely blinked today in the face-off between pro-enforcement and pro-amnesty Americans.

Yesterday, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) took the extraordinary step of writing a letter to Arizona Governor Jan Brewer, asking her to delay implementation of Arizona’s new immigration law in order to give the Senate a chance to pass comprehensive immigration reform. The Governor’s quick reply: “No.” Sen.
