Hey Barry! Why don’t you and your ‘RAT comrades hold a few fundraisers and raise the 3.7 billion yourselves? Why should the American taxpayers get stuck with the bill for your fiasco? Better yet, the refuse down at the U.N. dinosaur referred to Barry’s Kids as “refugees”. “Refugees” paying “coyotes” five to twenty-five grand to smuggle them into the land of the big piñata is new. If these invaders are “refugees”, why the hell doesn’t the bozos at the UN pick up the bill for this invasion?

Can’t the House re-appropriate the Funds from say the White House travel budget??

$3.7B

Oppty for the repubs.

Come up with a specific detailed and timelined $3.7B plan to finally fix this immigration problem. Pass it in congress and then tell obama that they have agreed to pass his amount, and it is ready for his sig. Wait for fireworks....

[SpaceBar]

Won’t work. Bambi will sign it, take the money, and spend it the way he wants.

[MaxMax]

Help.. Anybody have a link to the bill?

[Engedi]

How about stopping millions of dollars to those countries. Dollars that we give them to help with their border security.

Congressmen should go to the camps and hospitals, talk to the doctors and kids before allocating any money.

I live in Kalifornia, that fax would be useless.

$3.7B spread over 65,000 illegals is roughly $60k per kid. There's certainly far more loot, payoff, graft, corruption in that than an average Low Information Voter can do anything beyond drool over.

No way should "dealing with" this problem--for the moment ignoring who's responsible for foisting a fix onto US taxpayers--cost such an amount of money.

Corral, feed, cloth, clean, house, transport the boat anchors: $50/day/kid. Send 'em back to points south: $300/kid, hence a total of $1k/kid before they're back in their mother country.

Looks to me as if 1/60th of their requested money really ought to do it. That is, $62M, OK, $100M with generous overhead.
