Uh oh!  This is coming from liberal USA Today!  I just can't believe that the B.O. administration would actually lie about something like this.  The Dems are toast.  When the GOP takes the Senate we need to be very diligent in holding their feet to the fire.

U.S. misinformed Congress, public on immigrant release

New records contradict the Obama administration's assurances to Congress and the public that the 2,200 people it freed from immigration jails last year to save money had only minor criminal records...

The records, obtained by USA TODAY, show immigration officials released some undocumented immigrants who had faced far more serious criminal charges, including people charged with kidnapping, sexual assault, drug trafficking and homicide.

The release sparked a furor in Congress. Republican lawmakers accused the Obama administration of setting dangerous criminals free. In response, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said it had released "low-risk offenders who do not have serious criminal records," a claim the administration repeated to the public and to members of Congress...

Why can you not believe it?  At this point, I'd believe anything.

So, let's see what is done about it.  I say NOTHING.

The only real surprise is, the truth came out.

Excellent!!!

Time and time, and yet time again, we have seen instance after instance where officials within this administration, including none other than the AG, Sec State, Sec def, and the President himself.

Have bald faced, lied to the Congress.

And even more egregiously, have lied to the American people.

And what's been done about it? Nothing, zip, nada.

Even when such lies clearly violate the enumeration of powers and limits upon government as codified within our Constitution, even when those lies clearly violate Federal statute, even when those lies violate both the individual State's, as well as the individual citizen's rights....again

Nada, zip nothing done.

This is yet another example, of why it is, we as a nation, we as citizens must to preserve our Republic, not only get serious, but remain for the rest of our lives serious.

About using the power we the people hold as the utmost political authority in this nation.

By casting our votes to not only elect those who will be honest, and uphold our Constitution and our laws.

But also by casting our votes to elect, only those who will act, to impeach anyone holding public office, who behaves in the fashion this President, and one after the other of his appointees have.

IF we as a people, are willing to tolerate, and elect, and then re-elect criminals and liars.

Then we as a people neither deserve, nor will we ever have, better than,,,,well what we have had and have seen from our so called "elected officials" for the past few decades.

Continue straight ahead over the gorge.....just navigate the 100-year-old rope bridge carefully.  No running or skipping, with ear buds and dark shades.
