He’s Back At It; Lindsey Graham Says GOP Needs to Pony Up Emergency Funds to house Obama’s Illegals
thegatewaypundit.com ^ | 7/9/14

Now that the primary election is over RINO Lindsey Graham can unload again on Republicans.

It must feel good to be free.

It seems like it was just yesterday that Lindsey Graham was scolding Republicans for not passing amnesty.

Graham told the radical La Raza organization, “We’re going to tell the bigots to shut up.”

Today Graham told reporters the GOP needs to ‘pony up’ emergency funds to house Obama’s illegal alien children. The Hill reported:

Republicans will take the political fall if they don’t provide emergency funds to address the immigrant crisis at the southern border, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) warned Wednesday.

A number of conservatives on Capitol Hill are pushing back hard against President Obama’s request for almost $4 billion to manage the spike of immigrants — thousands of them unaccompanied minors — that’s hit the Texas-Mexico border in recent months.

But Graham, a long-time supporter of an immigration system overhaul, said a failure to provide the funds will exacerbate the crisis while handing Obama and the Democrats a political victory ahead of November’s midterm elections.

“If we do that, then we’re going to get blamed for perpetuating the problem,” Graham told reporters on Wednesday.

The people of SC should be the first to “pony up” in honor of their Lindsey.

Give Obama another $4 billion in slush money and no one will blame the GOP for the border mess

My guess is that Hussein Obama and El Presidente de Mexico are in cahoots...

‘REPORT: GUATEMALA-MEXICO BORDER WIDE OPEN’

CNN National Correspondent Gary Tuchman reported live from the Guatemala-Mexico border, where many of the illegal immigrants entering the United States being their journey, that passage from Guatemala into Mexico is “easy” because the border is unsecured.

Conservatives will never learn or accept the fact that they are wanted in the Republican Party only to the extent they accept, support, and vote for the Party’s Liberal nominee.

Not to house them.

Any funds expended should have only one purpose - repatriation to the country of origin. And a general warning to all who would attempt to “return” to US soil - serious detention time under rigorous conditions, in an unpleasant environment.

There is a very easy way to avoid such detention - don’t attempt to jump the line again. There is an existing path for legal access to US soil, and it is expected that every visitor will abide with that path.

Save our funds for a REAL emergency when it comes up. Like when the MS-13 infiltrators band together again within the US borders and start their predations on the local community. Or the Islamic jihadists who are using the same cover to slip in.

The only way to get rid of these rinos is to help elect democrats. Then the next election run a conservative who’ll beat the democrat.

The only thing any Republican should be saying about this is to demand that Obama take immediate action under existing law to stop the illegal entrants. Such as, put thousands of National Guard troops on the border.

And after Obama has stopped the flow off illegals he caused, they can discuss measures to provide for and then send home those already here.

I heard on talk radio that 300,000 have crossed into the U.S. since April.

250,000 of the total are adults, according to the caller.
I don’t know if these figures are true.
