Obviously hasn't aired yet, but here's an excerpt...

quote:

In an exclusive interview with Meet the Press moderator Chuck Todd, President Barack Obama defended his decision to delay executive action on immigration, saying the summer’s surge of unaccompanied children at the Mexican border changed the politics of the issue.

“The truth of the matter is that the politics did shift midsummer because of that problem,” Obama said in the interview, which will air on Sunday’s Meet the Press on NBC. “I want to spend some time, even as we're getting all our ducks in a row for the executive action, I also want to make sure that the public understands why we're doing this, why it's the right thing for the American people, why it's the right thing for the American economy.”


Kind of like you explaining to the public about Obamacare and promising the open debates to be aired live on CSPAN


Look, I'm all for immigration reform and a path to citizenship for a good number of the people here... But Obama is disingenuous about this whole fiasco, just like he was disingenuous about the Healthcare push.

It's because he knows what's best for the dimwitted masses.

It actually should read…

Total bullshite from Obama. They were talking about issuing an EO LONG AFTER the kids from Central America crossed the border.

It's a convenient excuse. When Obama finally does what he's going to do, ask yourself one question; "What part of this action was affected by the influx of kids from Central America?"

I strongly suspect that the answer will be.....nothing.

Chuck Todd has gotten in shape. Looks like he is about 30 pounds lighter than a year ago.

That was the sign that he would be tapped for the spot.

Scarborough's mug during his introduction was priceless.

Good get for his first show.

I hate Obama. More blaming the House and Republicans. It just never stops.

I'd bet that if you were from another country that applied to immigrate 3 or 4 years ago, you would feel much differently

Why would you advocate for citizenship for those who aren't following the system and are here illegally? What about those who have tried for years to do it by the law?

Hello,

My wife and daughter are going through this now and I can't even begin to tell you the money and paperwork we have gone through so far. Not to mention our 4 year legal fight with the IRS. Yea, she has done it by the book and has worked in the US for 5 years. She came legally but gets frustrated watching the president allows special groups a cut in line. She was born Asian, unfortunately for her.
