It is not a crime, yet anyway, to not vote for a politician. Unless you know something I don't. LOL BTW, the border is a part of national security not a separate issue. Quit trying to separate the two. That is no different then the Dems trying to separate Iraq from the WOT. They are all included in the same package.

Rep. J.D. Hayworth (R.-Ariz.) said passing a bill could be possible if it focused on enforcement alone. “No if, ands or buts” he said, “and certainly no add-ons from the comprehensive camp.”

I love J.D.

Rep. Steve King (R.-Iowa) said he would welcome appropriations funding for border security but that he’d rather see stand-alone legislation. “Mr. Pence is not going to get his Ellis Island kiosks this year,” he said, referring to the immigration plan being pushed by Rep. Mike Pence (R.-Ind.) that mandates immigrants visit foreign “Ellis Island Centers” to apply for citizenship.“So why don’t we do what we all agree needs to be done and let’s be done,” said King.“

Love the slap to Pence.

That is to shut off the four million people a year pouring across our Southern border and then take up the debate in January.”

Debate, maybe, Amnesty? I'd recommend not.

If by November 8 the Southern border is not secured, King advised voters to “look at the voting records of the candidates on the ballot. If they support House enforcement then stand with them because they are for controlling our borders. If they voted against it, brand them with the scarlet letter ‘A’ for amnesty and vote accordingly.”

I guess you would say Congressman King has committed a crime, here, huh?

I'm glad he and I are on the same page. Re-elect the majority which are border enforcement Republicans. If you are one of those with someone who is not, unfortunately I'm in that number, it's up to you. I'm not voting for my amnesty lovin' Congressman that's for sure. Though I AM helping elect Republicans that stand for border enforcement ELSEWHERE in the nation.

Oh, and Boehner has never been the deal breaker in this amnesty struggle. Hastert's the key to keeping amnesty off the table. He's the one refusing to allow a vote unless the majority of the majority agrees. His is the back I'm keeping an eye on, as amnesty lovers try to outmanuveur him. So far he's stood firm, I pray he stays that way.

Good for him! And any of the other House members that have stood firm againt intense pressure from the Senate, White House, and RNC. I need to send a letter of support to Hastert.

Of all days, one would think that supporting the President in the War would be job one. Guess I`m wrong

You are right, staying home and not voting isn`t a real crime. Allowing the Rats to take over Congress must be OK too. After all, those Republicans need a wake up call. (I`ve been trying to tell my 5 year old grandcritter to stop holding his breath to get his way, but I must be wrong there too)
There is a crime here though, thats not supporting the sacrifices of our troops and their families. Cause thats what the message really is when you stay home and pout instead of being an adult and voting.

I guess that means we need to vote out the GOP senators that want amnesty?

Right. Since it is actually the Senate, not the house that wants amnesty.
