......do some people say that President Obama doesn't want to enforce immigration laws or not want to do anything about border security? Isn't this a great start?

National Guard force is up to full strength at state border with Mexico

The National Guard has completed its deployment of more than 500 troops in support of border security agencies along the Arizona-Mexico border.

The deployment, known as Operation Copper Cactus, was initiated on Aug. 30 and had set a deadline to complete deployment by Oct. 1.

A total of 560 guardsmen will act in supportive roles to U.S. Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.

“They’re putting us where they need us,” said Sgt. Ed Balaban of the Arizona National Guard public affairs office.

The majority of the guardsmen will be assisting Border Patrol agents as part of entry identification teams positioned between ports of entry in the Tucson Sector, according to a news release announcing the completion of the deployment.

Answer 1

They were waiting for more GOP members to be elected so they can give them the credit. LOL! Obama is doing a great job, but fake News channels like Fox News like to smear the truth, and idiots fall for that.

Answer 2

at the beginning shall we handle who does what with the national shield. the guy States are on top of issues of their very own national Guards. the only time they become an arm of the DOD Federal is while they have been delivered into the lively accountability place as asked via the dep. of protection. until then The President has fairly no Command and administration of the national shield of any state in this union. it incredibly is as much as the sitting governor of a Border State to apply his national shield in a lively State Police ability, that would desire to require the Governor to swear in his shield individuals as State law enforcement officials. that would fairly be completed. i in my view believe you over all in this subject.
