I would really love some consistency in the outrage reactions going on here.

Seems that there were articles written about the 2013 event and much concern about it.

There is probably more, that was the one used in the FOX article that claimed that no one complained when "obama did it".

And of course these were border control agents...not the military deployed by Obama.

And in 2010?

Quote:Obama will also request $500 million for border protection and law enforcement activities, according to lawmakers and administration officials. The moves come as chances for action on comprehensive immigration reform, Obama's long-stated goal, look increasingly small in this election year. But Obama is under pressure to do something with the issue front and center after Arizona's passage of a tough crackdown law.

The National Guard troops will work on intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance support, analysis and training, and support efforts to block drug trafficking. They will temporarily supplement Border Patrol agents until Customs and Border Protection can recruit and train additional officers and agents to serve on the border, an administration official said.

So, not "crickets" just a better thought out and executed plan.

It seem that the right would like to pretend that Obama was never challenged or questioned without actually going back to see if he was.

I guess pointing out what really happened is misinterpreted as "railing against" people who have opinions and not facts at their disposal.
