Freepers the BILL IS GOING TO GET SIGNED. For those here at speculate it will not, relax, step back and take a deep breath. It will get signed.

The Secure Fence Act maybe one big snow job to obtain votes in the up coming election. Read the following:

A Pocket Veto can only take place after Congress adjourns at the end of a session, not during a Recess. Not signing it does not veto it. It would be an incredibly stupid move but it is NOT a veto.

Can some explain this to me. The House Republicans defy the White House and the Senate, they refuse for months to compromise 1 inch and then finally get to a point where the Dems do not dare to fillibuster a Border bill cause it is too close to an election. They get the bill thur and NOW the Always Angry say it just a fraud? That after all the struggle and strife the House GOP just sold them out? That makes NO sense. IF the House GOP was going to do that why did they bother killing the Senate bill? There is such a thing as being irrationally paranoid folks.

The White House considers this bill a front-and-center accomplishment and wants the boost to last all the way through Election Day.

A bit disingenuous ... if it were up to the White House, this never would have happened.

Nonetheless, proponents of a secure border don't need to be so cynical that we can't accept a victory when we get one.

This is a good first step. Any further steps are utterly dependent on the GOP retaining Congress.
