Thread: Dems Blasted for Border Bill

"Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, Schumer and McCaskill told reporters in a conference call Friday that the bill paves the way for consideration of a comprehensive reform bill. "

Why am I not surprised. The next thing out of Nappy's mouth will be "see the border's secure, amnesty for all."

And Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), who vowed he wouldn’t consider a comprehensive reform bill until he is convinced the border is secure, said he’ll push for more funding to tighten enforcement.

"I believe we have a lot more to do, but this will contribute to our effort to get our border secured," McCain said on the Senate floor.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), the only Republican still willing to work with Democrats on a comprehensive bill, told POLITICO last month that the passage of a stand-alone border security bill would help break the logjam.

Then why did McCain and Graham both run away from HR4437 in 2006 and create a comprehensive plan with the Democrats, instead of passing the House enforcement bill in the Senate in 2006????

Please don't take offense, but this man (Obama) is nothing but smoke and mirrors. He doesn't do anything that isn't in his own best interest. He is doing absolutely nothing about the problem, and I don't expect him too, and neither should anyone else.
