    He did allow firearms carry in national parks, though I dare say he didn't really want to.

    CBP is stopping them at the border, so ICE has fewer to find and deport. Good job, President Obama.

    Rep. Lamar Smith, the Texan who runs the committee, said the Obama administration has for the past several years been mixing some Border Patrol apprehensions with the deportation statistics from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the agency chiefly responsible for interior enforcement and for deporting aliens.

    His investigation found that when the Border Patrol numbers are subtracted, deportations actually have gone down every year since Mr. Obama first took office in 2009, dropping from about 395,000 that year to about 330,000 in 2011.

    And 2012 is shaping up to have even fewer deportations once the Border Patrol figures are subtracted, the committee said.

    “It is dishonest to count illegal immigrants apprehended by the Border Patrol along the border as ICE removals,” Mr. Smith said. “These ‘removals’ from the Border Patrol program do not subject the illegal immigrant to any penalties or bars for returning to the U.S. This means a single illegal immigrant can show up at the border and be removed numerous times in a single year — and counted each time as a removal.”

    ICE did not directly dispute Mr. Smith’s claim but defended its enforcement strategy.











    So...we're being lied to - again.
