at least he is capable of using the word "wait" in a sentence.  that's more than I would have suspected.

Changes to Immigration Must Wait, Obama Says

GUADALAJARA, Mexico — President Obama said Monday that efforts to change immigration rules would be a major focus for his administration only next year, after other major priorities were accomplished, including passage of a new health care system.

”It’s very important for us to sequence these big initiatives in a way where they don’t all just crash at the same time,” he said, according to The Associated Press.

Mr. Obama, flanked by the leaders of Mexico and Canada, spoke here at a news conference after an annual trilateral summit meeting. Responding to a range of questions on domestic and international issues, he also said the United States was committed to the return of the ousted president of Honduras, Manuel Zelaya.

Mr. Obama offered a spirited defense of Mexico’s fight against drug traffickers, brushing aside suggestions that some American financial assistance ought to be withheld because of human rights abuses by the army.

Repeating a line used often by President Felipe Calderón of Mexico, Mr. Obama labeled the drug traffickers causing so much violence in both Mexico and the United States as the biggest violators of human rights.

I am surprised that he would touch this at all before the midterms.  one more piece of "shut up and take it.  washington knows what is best for you" legislation isn't going to do anything but stoke the fire.
