White House Lying About Most Deportations in History Claim

It's gotten to the point that nearly everything released by the Obama administration needs to be examined and then re-examined for accuracy and truth.  The issue at hand is President Obama, who is a serial liar.  His administration follows his ideology and motives very closely, which is why so little truth comes out of the White House.  The Department of Homeland Security, led by Big Sexy, Janet Napolitano, along with the Justice Department, claimed that the Obama administration had deported more illegal aliens than any administration in history.  This was coming from an administration that instituted backdoor amnesty through executive order because the front door amnesty bill, the DREAM Act, couldn't pass.  Well guess what?  The White House lied about this, too.

National Review Online's Mark Krikorian dismantled the White House's claim:

The administration released the preliminary FY 2011 statistics for “removals” (the largest part of which is deportations), described as “the largest number in the agency’s history.” But when you look at history, the “largest number” is only about 1,700 more than two years ago; in fact, once the final numbers came out last year, the total had actually dropped slightly from the previous year, even though the agency had touted the preliminary numbers as the “largest ever” and had cooked the books to be able to make that claim. More importantly, the increase in deportations that continued pretty steadily under both Clinton and has stopped dead under Obama.

Back in December, the Washington Post actually picked this myth apart, showing that their was a process used by the Obama administration to cook the books, so it appeared that illegal aliens were deported, when in reality, they were allowed to legally return.  In other words, the illegals were told to go home for their statistics, but then come back and it wouldn't be a problem.  

When ICE officials realized in the final weeks of the fiscal year, which ended Sept. 30, that the agency still was in jeopardy of falling short of last year's mark, it scrambled to reach the goal. Officials quietly directed immigration officers to bypass backlogged immigration courts and time-consuming deportation hearings whenever possible, internal e-mails and interviews show.

Instead, officials told immigration officers to encourage eligible foreign nationals to accept a quick pass to their countries without a negative mark on their immigration record, ICE employees said.

The option, known as voluntary return, may have allowed hundreds of immigrants - who typically would have gone before an immigration judge to contest deportation for offenses such as drunken driving, domestic violence and misdemeanor assault - to leave the country. A voluntary return doesn't bar a foreigner from applying for legal residence or traveling to the United States in the future.

In case you haven't noticed, if something smells funny that's being pushed by the White House, it's because it stinks; it's fecal matter.  The Obama administration can use all of the Febreze they want, but non-liberal drones can smell this crap a mile away.  The mere fact that Obama is obsessed with open borders and amnesty - for the sole purpose getting the HIspanic and labor union votes - there was no way in hell that deportations of illegal aliens were at an all-time high.  Go to about four minutes into the clip and listen to Mark Levin.  He's spot on with his assessment.

Another day, another lie by the Obama White House.  At this point, it's unclear what truth they've actually told?
