yep, it all boils down to “don’t ask any politician any questions and they won’t tell Americans no lies”. I’ll die fast when it starts but remember everyone ... Each of us was warned because of the Internet. Hi nsa ....

Beware... Boehner the RINO is getting ready to throw some more TURDS into the punchbowl.

Don't worry folks... it's ALL in the spirit of good Kabuki theater.

They’re not “chilrens” and MANY are likely not even latin/hispanics.

Under Obama, any money provided would only go to liberal non-profits like La Raza.

Boehner never sounds reassuring. What he should have said is that they will give sufficient funds to put the National Guard on the border and then when its locked down they will take another look at the other stuff.

Hey Glenn Beck is delvering soccer balls and teddy bears so its all taken care of anyway.

"Speaker John Boehner on Thursday said Republicans will not give a “blank check” to President Obama to deal with the crisis on the border."

Given that that states have never delegated to Congress, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate immigration, immigration a 10th Amendment-protected intrastate power issue, corrupt Congress shouldn't be laying takes for such purposes anyway.

“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.

So state revenues that the border states could be using to deal with border problems are being illegally sat on by the feds at this time.

As a side note concerning the federal government's constitutionally limited powers, please consider the following. The states would sure be a dull, boring place to grow up and live in if parents were to make sure that their children were taught about the federal government's constitutionally limited powers as the Founding States had intended for those powers to be understood. /sarc

How can we get this picture into wider circulation? It is worth a thousand lies that this is for the “children.”

I will send it to those I know.

Thank-you.

Regarding the “2008 human trafficking law” that Zero hinges everything on and is pointed to as really being a Bush created problem - I believe that the “law” actually hearkens back to the Clinton era and was essentially expiring in 2008, so the extension with whatever baggage was what happened then.

The real bottom line is that the law - whoever it can be blamed on irrelevant - is not being followed at all. Given that some sort of extra scrutiny is required under the law for minors before deportation - OK, Zero - show us anyone that has been through the process and deported. Just not happening. Why give more money to make a system that is not effectively deporting minors found to not be part of “human trafficking” at the heart of that law.

I can tell you this: We're not giving the president a blank check," Boehner said.

Hell, no! He can have that $3B now, but gosh darn it, he'll have to come back and get a second check for the NEXT $3B.
