Little is being said about actually improving border security, even from Repubicans. They shouldn’t give Obama a penny without some immediate shoring up along the border, such as thousands of National Guard troops.

It’s hard to tell the difference sometimes.

We have McCain saying the conditions aren’t good enough, I guess they should all be awarded brick houses on cul-de-sacs with full time maids or something

GANG OF EIGHT REPUBLICANS JOIN SENATE DEMS TO KILL BORDER SECURITY FENCE

Sens. Marco Rubio (R-FL), John McCain (R-AZ), Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Jeff Flake (R-AZ), the four “Gang of Eight” GOP senators, joined Senate Democrats on Tuesday to kill an amendment to their immigration bill that would have required a double-layered fence to be built along the U.S. border with Mexico.

And spend the money needed to build an effective fence/barrier while you are at it.

Tell him to take it from the EPA, IRS, NSA, CIA, DHS, Justice department budgets as well as all the foreign aide going to Palestinian terrorists.

Here comes the surrender.

Obama doesn’t need his pen & phone cause Boehner/Mcconnell will do whatever he wants.

My prediction:

Linseed will ‘officially’ switch parties before the 2016 election.

This will be so he can jockey for position in Hillary’s cabinet, after the GOPe gives us Ronney as the nominee for the 2nd time....

We are so screwed it ain’t funny.

What’s another $3.7 billion down another Obama rathole when you’ve secured your primary in a state obviously overflowing with morons?

“But if you don’t address the root cause of the problem, you really accomplish nothing other than throw money at it.”

The “root cause of the problem” is sitting in the White Hut. Throw the mongrel out, problem solved.

Some congressman was on FOX this AM and said that they aren’t allowed in the detention centers without an appointment, and no cameras or talking with staff or children; and then the administration turns around and wants them to approve billions of dollars in aid.

Where did that idiot sprout from? How can one person be so dumb all the time? Send him to the zoo, along with Obama. They would fit in nicely with the animals..

So, does anyone want to tell me I’m disloyal for voting for Graham’s opponent in the general? He’s becoming as arrogant and haughty as Obama, for pity’s sake!!

Not another dime for the border. Not a penney. Let Obama own this thing. The optics are already really bad for him. Rick Perry is playing this like a fiddle. The GOP should follow his lead.

South Carol vageyenaina gave us McLame in O8 and keeps foisting Goober on us all again.

Congress needs to write one sentence law back dated to the 2008 bill:

All children not from Mexico and or Canada, entering illegally into the United States of America will be sent 1st class back to countries of origin.

Then Congress will pass a bill funding UA/American/all others airlines to send the children back to country of origin.
