Obama Gives Criminal Illegals A 'Budget Pardon'

[Wehrwolfen]

February 27, 2013

Budget: ​

Even before sequestration hits, the administration has been releasing hundreds of illegal aliens scheduled for deportation, jeopardizing public safety in a demagogic attempt to scare us into not cutting spending.

'I'm appalled to learn the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has begun to release hundreds of illegal aliens from custody, the first of potentially thousands to soon be freed under the guise of federal budget cuts," said Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer on Tuesday in response to the release by Immigration and Customs Enforcement of hundreds of "low-risk" illegal aliens from detention.

Well, so are we.

We are appalled at the bogus warnings that our food supply will be tainted, our transportation security jeopardized and the like by slowing the rate of growth by the federal behemoth by a paltry $85 billion.

And now this — the release of criminal illegal aliens before sequestration even happens is a cynical and unnecessary political ploy. In Pinal County, 70 miles north of the U.S.-Mexico border, Sheriff Paul Babeau told Newsmax, the release of hundreds of detainees over the weekend was "outrageous and unacceptable, because there's a direct and immediate impact to public safety of families in my county."

Babeau noted: "These are criminal illegals. They were headed for deportation — but now, they have received a budget pardon."

An ICE spokesman said the detainees selected for release were "noncriminals and other low-risk offenders who do not have serious criminal histories."

Well, that depends on how you define "low risk" and "serious." We view all crime as serious and law enforcement and border security as an essential, not optional, function of government.

[Mr. H.]

American businesses across the board have had to streamline and budget in order to survive.
And most have survived. Sure they've laid off employs, but they've also become more efficient at what they do in order to keep their heads above water.

This is smoke and mirrors, honk and jive, dog and pony.

Bless the Republicans for standing up to this sorry excuse that continues to defame the most prestigeous Office in the land.

 

[Clementine]

Yea, they are releasing all them because they are just looking for a better life. So what if they kill and rape some Americans.

Obama Terrorizes Public with Illegal Alien Releases

February 28, 2013
By Arnold Ahlert

In one of the most politically despicable moves ever perpetrated by a sitting administration, federal immigration officials have released hundreds of illegal aliens from prison in anticipation of budget cuts produced by the sequester. “As fiscal uncertainty remains over the continuing resolution and possible sequestration, ICE has reviewed its detained population to ensure detention levels stay within ICE’s current budget,” said agency spokeswoman Gillian M. Christensen in a statement. Immigration officials further warned that even more releases are possible, if the anticipated cuts are realized.

In Arizona, Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu, who revealed that more than 500 inmates were released in his county alone, put this ploy in the proper perspective. “President Obama would never release 500 criminal illegals to the streets of his hometown, yet he has no problem with releasing them in Arizona. The safety of the public is threatened and the rule of law discarded as a political tactic in this sequester battle,” he said.

Words can't illustrate how fucking low this bastard will stoop. Punish your enemies by releasing violent criminals to terrorize the public. One can only imagine how much more damage this country will have to absorb over the next 4 years (and probably beyond).

I wonder how many on the government dole monitor this forum.

No stupid libtard yet to defend this act of extreme stupidity be the extreme stupid leader.

That is a dirty damn lie. They are not criminals. The only crime they are guilty of is entering the country illegally. Being detained is not the same as being convicted of a crime and imprisoned.


Many illegal immigrants released from detention centers
ICE won't say how many people are out or where they took place, but immigration advocacy groups say illegal immigrants were freed from Alabama lockups. The cases against the immigrants haven't been dropped; ICE officials say they are on supervised release. ICE says the detainees released are low-risk offenders who do not have serious criminal records. Lawmakers on Capitol Hill feel blind-sided.

He is playing the hand he was served. By 60 years of illegal immigration ignored.

Then maybe they should be released into the custody of Mexican officials... sent directly home, no passing GO.

NOT released into the general population of the U.S.

Supervised release...what does that mean? They are tracking their every move when they released them? If so, where are they getting the money to do that if they can't afford to hold them?

Whistle Blowers Say Obama Releasing Violent Illegal Aliens

March 14, 2013
By Michael Volpe

...

We do have very reliable information from “Whistle Blowers” within ICE that the “non-violent” offenders that the federal government keeps stating were the only ones released is not the truth.

The whistle blowers within ICE have contacted Sheriff Babeu with information that some of these detainees are inside for crimes against children; manslaughter, aggravated assault of officer, weapon offenses and other such violent crimes.

...

We are deeply concerned that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is using sequestration as a vehicle to further the Administration’s disregard for enforcing our immigration laws. Specifically, we are troubled by recent reports that DHS has released hundreds of illegal immigrants, rather than finding cost savings elsewhere in the agency.

Your agency’s decision to release “low-risk” illegal immigrants back into the public under the guise of saving money is extraordinary, unprecedented and dangerous. We understand that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), like all federal agencies, must find cost savings in order to comply with their new budget allocation. However, it is frankly irresponsible that your agency chose releasing detained immigrants as its first effort to control spending.

This is really despicable. Especially since he controls what is cut and there is billions in waste in our government.

Do we really need to study what lesbians are fat? That's a good use of our money but keeping criminals behind bars or deporting illegals who commit crimes is something we can't afford? Seriously? Does anyone really buy this nonsense?

And he doesn't even have the guts to take responsibility for his decisions. He blames canceling the White House Tours on the Secret Service. As if the White House has no say in the matter. Then Carney contradicts him hours later saying they made the decision. Why is it so difficult to just man up and take responsibility for your choices? It's not like he can get voted out of office. He should take responsibility for his choices and explain his decisions. These political games are messed up and people could end up dead because of them.

BTW, on what planet is throwing the people paid to protect you under the bus a wise decision? Especially with all the nut cases out there. It's insanity.

Will you still feel they are low-risk if a family member is killed by a drunk driver who was one of the ones released?

 

[RoadVirus]

If Obama has a Willie Horton moment, it's going to be a long and ugly second term for him.

 

[bitterlyclingin]

Anything and everything to make the sequestor as painful as possible for the people. That'll make 'em stick it to the Republicans in 2014. Even if it means letting murderers, child rapists and drunk drivers loose on a "Dollar down and a dollar when you catch me" promise, so be it!

Obama Admin Met Radical Groups Before Mass Release of Illegals

March 21, 2013

...

Neither the ICE Public Advocate nor any of the groups that hosted any of the “roundtables” would answer FrontPage Magazine directly whether or not they advocated in these meetings to the Obama administration the mass release of thousands held in ICE facilities as is currently being implemented. While it’s not entirely clear what, if any, influence these meetings had on public policy, there is more than enough evidence to demand full disclosure.
