Yesterday, the White House denied a claim made by Arizona’s Republican Sen. Jon Kyl that he was told personally by President Obama that he would not work to secure the Mexican border unless it was part of comprehensive immigration legislation.<\/p>\n

“The president didn’t say that and Senator Kyl knows it,” White House Communication Director Dan Pfeiffer told POLITICO yesterday<\/a> in their story which includes video of Kyl’s claims being made to supporters in Phoenix.<\/p>\n

Today, Media Matters has a long list<\/a> detailing Kyl’s well-documented history of blatantly false claims.<\/p>\n
