This video is from a town hall in Arizona on Friday, and it’s at once shocking and no surprise at all. It’s a video of Sen. Jon Kyl (R-AZ) discussing illegal immigration and potential government steps to put a stop to it.

At the 3:17 mark of the video, you find out why few if any of those steps are being taken…

According to Kyl, President Obama won’t secure the border in the Tucson Sector in Arizona because by doing so he loses leverage on “comprehensive immigration reform” – which is publicsectorese for making Democrat voters out of illegal aliens.

This is a man for whom playing politics trumps doing his job.

Which is not a surprise. We’ve known that all along.

But it’s still amazing that someone like this could possibly be president of the United States, no?
