All this time, we’ve been wondering how illegal immigration has gotten so bad. At this afternoon’s press conference, President Obama revealed the answer:
Obama: “Our system is so broken, so unclear, that folks don’t know what the rules are”

And of the surge in child border crossings, Pres Obama says "Our system is so broken, so unclear," that folks don’t know what the rules are"

Oh, so that’s what it is. Well, rules are hard … and nobody understands that better than the reluctant rule breaker in chief:

Like Him? RT @DavidMDrucker: "Our system is so broken, so unclear, that folks don't know what the rules are." @BarackObama

Why should we expect immigrants to follow the rules when the president regularly sets such poor examples?
Obama: "Our system is so broken, so unclear, that folks don't know what the rules are." AND WHOSE FAULT IS THAT? #headdesk

@markknoller Nope, laws are pretty clear. This administration REFUSES to enforce the laws we have

@markknoller We know the rules. It seems Obama is the one who is having a problem with law.
