Tens of thousands of people flocking to the U.S. border from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador have stirred anger into the boiling immigration debate, but U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham said Sunday that the crisis confronting federal, state and local governments is not an immigration issue.
Its a humanitarian problem, but its apart from immigration reform. This is a specific problem created by an impression that if you get to America, you can stay, Graham said on CBSs Face the Nation.
Weve got to turn that impression around, send these children back to their homelands, tell the countries in question if you dont keep them and take care of them, were going to cut all aid, said Graham, a Republican from Seneca.
Nevertheless, the growing wave of humanity, including more than 52,000 unaccompanied children detained since October, has ignited protests against undocumented immigrants, including one in Murrieta, Calif., that blocked buses bound for a Border Patrol processing center. The buses carried women and children who had been flown to California from the overwhelmed border state of Texas.

What a disingenuous prick!! Golly gee, Lindsey, why do they think they'd be allowed to stay?? Maybe the "Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2006" or the "Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2007" or the "Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2013" all of which you voted for?? Maybe it's the Secure Fence Act that was defunded and gutted so the flow wouldn't stop, or the "virtual fence" that never happened. Or your speech before La Raza calling for the "bigots to shut up"??
Maybe they think they can stay because politician after politician, on Sunday show after Sunday show, continually say that "we can't just deport 11 million people, we must provide them with "a pathway to citizenship" or a "pathway to legalization"
Arrogant, lying prick!! This man needs to be removed from power one way or the other!
I can’t wait to vote you out in November, even if I must vote Democrat for the first time in 42 years.
Boy I wish I could be down there to help you! I’m hoping Ravenel gets a plurality or the democrat wins.
So I assume he’s willing to bet his life on the premise that none of them will stay illegally, and that not one of them will ever illegally vote Democrat in an election?.........[crickets]
The EXEMPT: "You can trust us."
Lindsey we already know it has nothing to do with immigration..
and there’s nothing humane about committing crimes against America and her citizens...
Here we go...
Who didn’t see this coming - especially from Linda :-/
It is better to have a known enemy at your front than a traitor at your back.
Hmmm...a fresh coat of lipstick for the illegal immigration pig.
The same despots who own little bath house barry own Pansey Graham. Graham’s obsequious service is exposed as the lie it is because the current regime began planning for the ‘escort service’ for these diseased invaders back in January! The regime had coordinated the invasion via their drug cartel friends! Graham needs to be removed so he can no longer enable the evil that is aborting America.
Sure didn’t take this guy long to accept his marching orders from the U.N.
Isn’t there an Independent on the ticket?
Who created that impression, Linseed?
You, Obama and all your other Democrat friends did, that’s who.

How does Pelosi do it? Her puppet Lindsey speaks and her mouth never moves.
FU Grahamnesty, you worthless DemocRat.
What a contradiction in terms!
Worse, he hasn't the guts to admit it is a political problem constructed by obama and D.C. politicians, for which he has some responsibility.
