Why did Obama admit the AZ immigration legislation was a result of failure at the federal level?

And then instead of saying he'd do something about it said I have instructed members of my administration to closely monitor the situation and examine the civil rights and other implications of this legislation.”





So, we won’t enforce existing law, but we’ll keep an eye on the lawmakers and law enforcement officials enforcing this new law.





Is that brilliant or what?|||Obama had to say that because to say anything else would be so obviously stupid as to make him look like a complete fool. Now, having admitted that, instead of fixing the problem of failure of Federal lack of enforcement, he wants to do exactly the WRONG think and look for ways to undermine and prevent what really needs to be done, as in the Arizona law.





Obama is as brilliant as a burned-out light bulb. He and his Administration are doing things that should NOT be done and not doing things that SHOULD be done. He is wrong on both counts.|||President Obama said the Arizona immigration legislation was a result of failure at the federal level because it is.





It is curious that two of the states most seriously impacted by illegals are ARIZONA - represented by SENATOR John McCain for TWENTY THREE YEARS and TEXAS - home state of GOVERNOR George W. Bush 1994 - 2000 - former PRESIDENT George W. Bush for EIGHT years, 2000 to 2008.





This is an OBVIOUS failure of the federal government turning a blind eye to the problem of illegal immigration. Or are we to believe that illegal immigrants did not decide to come to the US until January 20, 2009?





President Obama is wise to monitor the implications of the Arizona legislation. It may provide the answer to how we most effectively remedy the illegal immigration problem.|||There is is again. Actions speak louder than words.





He only wants to punish the ones who try to restore law %26amp; order.





He takes no action to stop the lawbreakers himself.





EVEN THOUGH IT'S HIS JOB.





What does it say when a man refuses to do his job that he was CHOSEN to do, then he only wants to stop anybody else who tries to do his job for him?





HE IS INTENTIONALLY DOING THE OPPOSITE OF WHATEVER COMMON SENSE AND LOGIC WOULD SUGGEST.





He is intentionally doing the opposite of what would improve whatever situation he is addressing.





Obama is intentionally destroying the USA to transform it into a two class third world nation. He wants the USA to be like Venezuela, so he can be like Chavez.





OBAMA = One Big A** Mistake, America!|||It is obvious it wont work if you don't enforce it, that has been the problem since the Mexican American War imo , no administration has cared enough to enforce it|||obama had to admit it was a result of failure at the federal level, Anything else and he would have lied or blamed President Bush. (But that's nothing new to him.)|||Arizona is going to end up like California - massive budget deficits - and the more you try close the deficit the more immigrants will end up in poverty - turn to crime - have more babies - etc
