Who’s To Blame For The Border Crisis?

An overwhelming surge of tens of thousands of illegal alien children crossing our southern border has been happening in the past few months, everyone is looking for a scapegoat. Rather than seeking out a solution to end this surge, most would prefer to just point fingers. The blame game is a lot like sex. It sells. Unfortunately, most are rather biased in how they point fingers. Democrats blame Bush. Republicans blame Obama. Libertarians blame our open border as not being open enough. It’s never really that simple; however, as there are many areas to place blame, so we’re going to play this “game” right. What’s causing all these illegal alien children to come here so suddenly?

Obama and DACA

In all fairness, Obama is the chief executive of this country and oversees all border security and immigration departments. On June 15, 2012, the Obama administration announced rule changes called the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). As you can see in the video below, Obama made the announcement publicly in the White House Rose Garden. According to him, the children brought here against their will are Americans “in every, single way but one, on paper.” The rule applies to nearly every illegal alien who was under the age of 31 as of June 15, 2012, was under 16 when they came to America, and has resided in America continuously since 2007. While the last exception should rule out the thousands of illegal alien children that have come across the border over these past few months, this rule, when reaching the ears of Central Americans, could be easily misinterpreted as a free pass.

However, it’s very likely that most will receive a free pass, even those who do not qualify for DACA.

The money is for payment to the responders to the JANUARY 2014 government ad for escorts for unaccompanied invaders. Would you say that a vast majority of the responders are DEMONCRATS?

Tell us how it is that L4B (that little bath-house barry bastard boy) knew there would be more than 60,000 illegal alien children arriving at our Southern Border this summer, way back in January of this year when he had the fedzillaadvertising for ‘escorts’ for 65,000 unescorted children ‘immigrants’. Perhaps Bush arranged that, too? If you actually want an answer to that query you will have to figure out how to get the records of Brennan’s CIA thuggery embrace of the drug cartels released for exposure.

How about you tell me why GWB did not attempt to close the border, build a fence, enforce the law, or beef up the law to get rid of illegals when he had both houses of congress and he was the President?

Why don't you tell me why he was constantly shilling for Amnesty for those who came here illegally, committed all kinds of felonious ID Fraud, and stole social services they had no right too, causing in large part, the deficits that have plagued the states for years?

If he had actually done the moral thing, the righteous thing by closing the border, WE WOULD NOT BE FACING THIS ISSUE TODAY.

You answer my questions first and then I'll answer yours.

pingaling to remember ...

The answer is quite simple really, The North American Union plan. And do you remember under whose rule that little poisonous dart arose?

[longfellowsmuse]

Fear of failure is not a reason to abandon truth and law. I see you have adopted the common excuse of republican leadership. Here is the problem with a congress that accepts defeat.

The American People are watching. When your leaders whom you elect refuse to even attempt use their constitutionally granted powers to reign an out of control executive branch it results in depression and voter apathy among your constituents. Why go to the polls, why even bother to become involved in fighting for the truths that founded our nation when your elected leaders give up, while they look to the capitol exits for their next lobbying job. The American people will follow a leader who stands up to tyranny, even if he or she loses a couple of battles along the way. Yes, indeed they are inept at understanding that Americans want a leader who stands for us not a group of passive frat boys who golf with a tyrant while Rome burns.

Imagine if Washington had employed such a defeatist attitude. Surely the British army was a more formidable foe than Harry Reid.

Somehow, someway they will blame Bush....................

Isn’t that a very stupid question here on F.R.???

Well, since your the once trying to make that case, why don't you enlighten us?

Bull-loney.

As it pertains to the current crisis of tens of thousands of children and other illegals streaming across the borders; this is 100 percent Obama’s fault.

From his ads last January seeking escorts for these children - to his collusion recently with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto - to many other well documented and recent actions - this is all on Obama.

Not Bush.

there’s no such thing as stupid questions. Maybe its just unnecessary.

[Biggirl]

Obama.

Garbage!

If GWB had closed the border when he could because he had both houses of congress, we wouldn't even be facing this issue today.

Don't stick your head in the sand because you are either way too loyal to GWB or the GOP or both.

Stick to principles.

It’s true, GWB should bear some responsibility,
however, is he President NOW? Was he president
the last six years? The responsibility is Obama’s.
He refuses to enforce the laws already in place and
exacerbates the situation with his actions.
Where is the pressure on MEXICO to stop allowing these
people to transit their country?

Close the border, then we can talk about immigration.

This was the correct response.

[Responsibility2nd]

You’re getting emotional.

You wanna play “what-if”? Fine. IF Bush had closed the borders and more....

What would have kept Obama from - YEARS LATER - softening the stance on the Border issues and creating this type of manufacted crisis that is now staring us in the face?

Pal - you have the worst case of BDS I’ve seen in a long time.

The refusal on our part to hold our own accountable first, is one of the reasons why the GOP-E is able to maintain control of our party.

Pal - you have the worst case of BDS I’ve seen in a long time. Now whose getting emotional?

[blueunicorn6]

Obama is playing pool and raising political money.

He’s flipping off the people of The United States.

He should call an emergency cabinet meeting and tell them, “Be back here in four hours with things your department can do to help fix this.”

He hasn’t. He’s just giving us the bird. We are governed by vengeful, greedy ten year old Democrats.

[MHGinTN]

You are being an asshat. The following reveals your snooty agenda on this issue. Stick it: "This was the correct response."

You aren't god enough to be telling freepers what is the correct response to your loaded 20 questions game.

Hey, where did you get that Freeper cloak you are wrapping yourself in?

I want one of those!
