That is not a hard one to figure out. Obama has been against Border Security from Day One ignoring the requests of the Arizona Governor and Senators Kyl and McCain as he was pushing the Immigration bill that grants amnesty. We believe that Obama would prefer Open Borders because when he finally agreed to send in the National Guard to Arizona to help they are desk people not boots on the ground. It suits the Obama and Democrat agenda of getting more Democrat voters if more illegals cross the border, give them amnesty, and a path to citizenship to become a Democrat voter. Doesn't take rocket science to figure out what Obama is up to with his plan for illegals.
The Democrat Party has no intention of securing our border so the fact that Obama told Kyl that he won't secure the border until Congress moves on immigration is no surprise to us. We believe the Democrats looks at illegals as a perpetual source of new Democrat voters not people who are in this Country illegally.
Kyl: Obama Won't Secure Border Until Lawmakers Move on Immigration Package

President Obama is refusing to secure the border until Congress reaches a breakthrough on comprehensive immigration reform, Arizona Sen. Jon Kyl said at a recent town hall meeting.
The No. 2 Senate Republican, in a clip posted on YouTube (below) showing the senator speaking to a local Tea Party crowd on Friday, said the president told him during a one-on-one meeting in the Oval Office that he was concerned he wouldn't win GOP support on immigration legislation if he took care of border security first.
"The problem is, he said, if we secure the border, then you all won't have any reason to support comprehensive immigration reform," Kyl said, as the crowd in the room gasped loudly. "In other words, they're holding it hostage."
The White House denied the claim on Monday. Spokesman Bill Burton and Communications Director Dan Pfeiffer both said Kyl "knows" Obama did not make that comment to him in their meeting.
"The president didn't say that and Senator Kyl knows it," Pfeiffer said in a written statement. "There are more resources dedicated toward border security today than ever before, but, as the president has made clear, truly securing the border will require a comprehensive solution to our broken immigration system."
Burton repeated the claim at the press briefing Monday afternoon.
But Kyl's office stood by the senator's account. Kyl spokesman Ryan Patmintra said, "There were two people in that meeting, and Dan Pfieffer was not one of them." He said Pfeiffer's call for comprehensive immigration legislation "only confirms" Kyl's story.
And later, Kyl himself affirmed to Fox News the accuracy of his version: “I portrayed our conversation totally accurately ... The president cannot say that what I said was incorrect.”
