Thread: Congressman Boren's Response Concerning Border Patrol Agents

I wrote my Oklahoma Democratic Congressman Dan Boren to let him know I felt betrayed that not one Democrat in our Congress or Senate, had the guts to stand up for our 2 border agents being sent to prison for doing their jobs, I told him I guess in the future we could only depend on the Republicans to try to do the right thing, when it comes to defending our Border Agents against a drug dealer, who was caught not once but twice bringing in drugs, and given immunity to testify against our agents! This is my response.

Thank you for contacting me regarding the case of two imprisoned border patrol agents. It is always a pleasure for me to hear from my fellow Oklahomans.



As you know, I am opposed to illegal immigration. I also feel strongly that our first priority should be securing our borders so that we know who is entering our country. This is a matter of national security and cannot be dismissed lightly. In addition, it is important to protect hardworking Oklahomans from unfair competition in the job market. I also believe that our existing immigration laws need to be enforced more strictly, and I have supported increased funding for state and local law enforcement and the Border Patrol to deal with the issue of immigration.



For all of these reasons, I will continue to closely monitor the situation involving these two border patrol agents. I assure you that during my tenure in Congress, I will do everything I can to secure our borders and safeguard quality jobs for hardworking Oklahomans. I encourage you to continue sharing your views with me on this or any other matte.

I am hoping everyone on here will contact their democratic Congressmen and Senators, to put them on the spot for not standing with the Republican leaders for these agents. Now I guess we will soon have another agent railroaded into prison, this time for murder for daring to defend himself against an illegal who was ready to brain him with a rock! I would like to hear what other democrats have to say about this, even if you didn't vote for them. I would contact them all myself, it is really hard to get them to write back if you are not from their state!

I'm still trying to figure out what your Congressman said.

Sounds like the standard boilerplate blah blah blah letter to me.

"GOOD MORNING, WELCOME TO THE UNITED STATES"
"Press "1" if you speak English."
"Press '2' to disconnect until you can .

I would be interested to find out if Barack Obama has ever written anyone. I have never received a response from him.

Mike,
Shouldn't that say "Press 2 if no comprende"?
Then after pressing it just hangs up.

Face it while we have the current president and democrats in power it is an up hill battle to get justice for border agents. DOJ is supporting everything that drug smugglers and illegals say. But again look at who the AG is and what he believes in. Giving American land to Mexico.

You are absolutely right Count, I didn't make myself clear in my post, I thought it just a bunch of crap myself, wanted to see what other democrat leaders had to say about it!
