Lindsey Graham: Obama Releasing Criminal Aliens Blow To Immigration Push
Breitbart Big Government ^ | 13 May 2014 | by CAROLINE MAY

WASHINGTON—One of the leading Republicans pushing for amnesty in the Senate said leaked documents revealing the Obama administration has released thousand of immigrants with serious rap sheets from detention has set back efforts to pass a major immigration bill.

“This sets everything back. I don’t think many Americans want an illegal immigrant who has been convicted of a felony to stay in the country and sure as hell not released from jail,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) told Breitbart News.

Graham, a member of the “Gang of Eight” that helped push a comprehensive immigration bill through the Senate last year, expressed anger at the Obama administration's actions.

“It’s a terrible way to handle immigration,” he said. “You don’t let people out of jail who have been convicted of crimes — and these are crimes apart from violations of immigration law.”

other than Cruz, Mike Lee, and maybe a couple more, there aren’t any GOP senators that are worth squat.

Well. At least he recognizes that people such as the many Middle Eastern and African criminals, combined with wealthy druggies from Latin America and everywhere else, that Obama has let into the country (legally), no matter what their crimes, are doing no favors to improving matters for other immigrants, legal or illegal, who simply want to make a living.

Anything or anyone who holds Obama accountable for anything is doing the right thing. And a wuss like Graham doing it matters a lot.

My complaint all along has been the type of LEGAL immigration we’re getting, thanks to Herr Obama.

That is a fact. Most of them have been there WAY too long.

Miss Lindsey is surprised that Obama acts counter to the best interests of the country. He’s shocked because he is an idiot.

Just saw up at Drudge the question on whether letting 35,000 serious criminals loose is impeachable.
