If Obama wasn’t ORCHESTRATING this horror, he would call out the National Guard. Obama is the mortal enemy of America, as we at FR have long known.

Obama is full of it. The immigration law passed by the Senate would do nothing to address this current flood of illegal alien children.

I get the impression that Obama is eager to find somebody to blame for problems. He is so eager to lecture us about who or what is to blame for problems, without exerting leadership himself as to what should be done.

I think I have a political solution for conservatives:

Pass a bill regarding the employment of federal employees.

50000 federal employees will immediately begin training illegal immigrants to take over their jobs. Wages for those jobs will be reduced by 25%. This will result in massive savings.

If federal employees knew that their jobs were explicitly being reassigned to new illegal immigrants the political optics would reverse.

The GOPe Amnesty cheerleaders are just as much to blame as Obama and the Democrats.

Of course there would be a surge of criminal immigrants storming the border.

I’m lost on this “immigration reform” issue. I don’t understand how NOT enforcing existing immigration laws means we need “immigration reform”.

To my perspective to start immediately to enforce our existing laws IS the proper “immigration reform”.

Obama has taken 180 golf days since taking office. He’s not serious about any problem except that nasty slice he has hitting off the tee.

RE: Obama has taken 180 golf days since taking office.

Let’s remind ourselves that he hasn’t taken even a few minutes to CALL the President of Mexico and DEMAND that our marine rotting in their jail for simply making a wrong turn, be released immediately.

But yeah, he has time to exchange 5 terrorists for a deserter.

RE: I could swore it was BUSH’S fault!.....................and Karl Rove....................

Let’s be honest -— George Bush DOES deserve SOME blame. The legal vehicle for the mass child migration is an amendment added by Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Ca.) to an anti-sex trafficking law in 2008. It forced the government to admit into the country any minors, other than Mexicans and Canadians, and reunite them with family or other guardians in the United States.

Bush signed the bill in 2008 that included Feinstein’s amendment.

he 2008 law provided the basis for this mess. Notice that left is very skilled at embedding things into law that Republicans can’t even begin to understand.

Republicans regularly acquiesce to broad legislation with seemingly harmless components because they don’t comprehend the devious and lawless capabilities of the left. The 2008 Feinstein amendment, signed by George Bush, is what caused the border tsunami in 2014.

The Feinstein amendment to the 2008 law was sold as a way to prevent trafficking of minor immigrant children, but it has actually ENCOURAGED it. Leftist open borders groups don’t want to tamper with the 2008 law because their original intent has come to fruition all along the southern border. The only part missing is the mass amnesty in the Senate bill (That’s why we should SCRAP all notions of this so called immigration “reform” ( note the quotes ), especially when the likes of John McCain or ANY Democrats are involved ).

There was one other glitch in the plan: too many came too quickly.

Cue Obama’s request for $3.8 billion to “fix” the problem ( again note the quotes ).

In reality, his request makes it WORSE. For example, the request includes millions from taxpayers to give the aliens free lawyers to help them fight to remain in the United States.

Right now it is against federal law to use federal funds to give illegal aliens lawyers. When Obama promised change, he meant it.

I’m so glad you said the Senate bill would have done nothing to stop this flood. I have been thinking the same thing for months.
If anything the Senate bill is contributing to this problem and so are the stories we see frequently about Boehner being ready to pass the Senate bill in the House if they can just silence the Tea Party wing.

Well, here’s a bit of a clue for you....

Look up Cloward - Piven.

This is just another Manufactured Crisis™ brought about to cause fear and allow the regime to enact *emergency* measures...aka “reform” (remember the financial “crisis”, the healthcare “crisis”, etc? Same thing, here.)

Only this time, these “measures” will completely change the political landscape of our country. These invaders are instantly given government subsidies...and will vote accordingly to keep said subsidies, once they’re given amnesty.

Why on Earth would the Pubbies/Boehner go along with this plan? They’ve been bought and sold by BIG $$. They’ve put power (position) over country.

And, it’s all been done without warning, massive protests or massive outrage. Don’t they feel clever, now? They’re breaking our own laws and seem to be getting away with it.

Barone is imagining this invasion isn't a deliberate and willful act of Obama and the Demovik Party.

He is delusional, just like most of the Washington GOP elites.

Which will tie up the legal system for years to come, which will mean MORE JUDGES are needed, which will mean Obama can APPOINT MORE JUDGES to a LIFETIME position, which will mean they will be there doing the will of the Left, which will mean the Constitution will be torn asunder, which will mean the Republic has fallen..............

And, don’t forget...We the Taxpayers have already ponied up $80Billion to fund this invasion, in the form of grants offered to the Catholic and Baptist churches to house, feed and educate these invaders.

This has been planned since 2010, or earlier. We’ve been hoodwinked in the biggest way...by our own government.
