A government that fails to secure its borders is guilty of dereliction of duty. A government that fails to care for our men and women on the frontlines is guilty of malpractice. A government that puts the needs of illegal aliens above U.S. veterans for political gain should be prosecuted for criminal neglect bordering on treason.
Compare, contrast and weep:
In Sacramento, Calif., lawmakers are moving forward with a budget-busting plan to extend government-funded health insurance to at least 1.5 million illegal aliens.
In Los Angeles, federal bureaucrats callously canceled an estimated 40,000 diagnostic tests and treatments for American veterans with cancer and other illnesses to cover up a decade-long backlog.
In New York, doctors report that nearly 40 percent of their patients receiving kidney dialysis are illegal aliens. A survey of nephrologists in 44 states revealed that 65 percent of them treat illegal aliens with kidney disease.
In Memphis, a VA whistleblower reported that his hospital was using contaminated kidney dialysis machines to treat America's warriors. The same hospital previously had been investigated for chronic overcrowding at its emergency room, leading to six-hour waits or longer. Another watchdog probe found unconscionable delays in processing lab tests at the center. In addition, three patients died under negligent circumstances, and the hospital failed to enforce accountability measures.
In Arizona, illegal aliens incurred health care costs totaling an estimated $700 million in 2009.
In Phoenix, at least 40 veterans died waiting for VA hospitals and clinics to treat them, while government officials created secret waiting lists to cook the books and deceive the public about deadly treatment delays.
At the University of California at Berkeley, UC President Janet Napolitano (former secretary of the Department of Homeland Security) has offered $5 million in financial aid to illegal alien students. Across the country, 16 states offer in-state tuition discounts for illegal aliens: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Kansas, Maryland, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Utah and Washington. In addition, the Rhode Island Board of Governors for Higher Education, the University of Hawaii Board of Regents and the University of Michigan Board of Regents all approved their own illegal alien tuition benefits.
In 2013, the nation's most selective colleges and universities had enrolled just 168 American veterans, down from 232 in 2011. Anti-war activists have waged war on military recruitment offices at elite campuses for years. The huge influx of illegal aliens in state universities is shrinking the number of state-subsidized slots for vets.
In 2013, the Obama Department of Homeland Security released 36,007 known, convicted criminal illegal aliens, according to the Center for Immigration Studies. The catch-and-release beneficiaries include thugs convicted of homicide, sexual assault, kidnapping, and thousands of drunk or drugged driving crimes.
The same Department of Homeland Security issued a report in 2009 that identified returning combat veterans as worrisome terrorist and criminal threats to America.
In Washington, Big Business and open-borders lobbyists are redoubling efforts to pass another massive illegal alien amnesty to flood the U.S. job market with low-wage labor.
Across the country, men and women in uniform returning home from Iraq and Afghanistan have higher jobless rates than the civilian population. The unemployment rate for new veterans has spiked to its worst levels, nearing 15 percent. For veterans ages 24 and under, the jobless rate is a whopping 29.1 percent, compared to 17.6 percent nationally for the age group.
A Forbes columnist reported last year that an Air Force veteran was told: "We don't hire your kind."
And last December, Democrats led the charge to reduce cost-of-living increases in military pensions -- while blocking GOP Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions' efforts to close a $4.2 billion loophole that allows illegal aliens to collect child tax credits from the IRS, even if they pay no taxes. The fraudulent payments to illegal aliens would have offset the cuts to veterans' benefits.
America: medical and welfare welcome mat to the rest of the world, while leavings its best and bravest veterans to languish in hospital lounges, die waiting for appointments, and compete for jobs and educational opportunities against illegal border-crossers, document fakers, visa violators and deportation evaders. Shame on us.
MAS deportations! MORE help for our veterans.
Bump
Apparently America WANTS to die.
The world is clearly upside down.
This admin knows how vets vote and how their illegal darlings will vote next year when they all get their amnesty.
They can’t kill off our vets fast enough.
We giave benefits to illegals, and we fast track traitors to have sex change operations, but we don’t take care of our veterans. Where are our priorities? Do illegals and the LGBT peoples always get priority? Are we that politically correct nowadays?
Take back OUR country....................
I’ll bet that the staff of “The Speaker of the House” are protecting him from this information.
Guessing the vets don’t parade & picket in sufficient quantities to get the attention of the right people. It is totally insane that this nation would prioritize the illegals higher than the vets who served this country. They say the “squeaky wheel gets the grease”. In this case the “wheel” on the wagon crossing the border seems to be the only one really getting any attention. The others get lip service. Get enough ilegals on the dole for various services,not just medical care,& pretty soon nobody gets anything. The wheels don’t squeak any more because they have fallen off the wagon & everything sets on the ground.
Any Politician Siding with This Tragic Reality is Unfit for Office.
Compliance with these un-American acts in this Obama Era deserves the scorn of citizens; we will do all we can to oust those who follow the Obama/Pelosi/Reid lead on disgusting treatment of our military and red carpet treatment of their law-breaking chosen ones.
I see this invasion by illegals everyday, yet because our Veterans represents a Smaller Voting Block than Law Breakers, they are ignored.
Does anyone you know even care about our soldiers in Afghanistan? Or are they more outraged if I were to called someone a Fag on National TV?

Sarah’s a real gem.
And illegals don't have to show ID to vote, hence the rabid fight against requiring voter ID.
My husband never voted while he was in the Army. Both he and I registered in 1979 after he retired and we never missed an election. Ronald Reagan was the first President we both voted for.
Compliance with these un-American acts in this Obama Era deserves the scorn of citizens; we will do all we can to oust those who follow the Obama/Pelosi/Reid lead on disgusting treatment of our military and red carpet treatment of their law-breaking chosen ones.
Yeah, but - like, 12 years ago or something like that, Sarah Palin might have said Gracias, or something. And she was on O'Reilly, too.
So, saying Gracias is like her policy, dontchaknow.

Send ‘em home and spend the money on our vets.
“borders on treason”? The regime is controlled by traitors, each snf every one of them.. For, by doing nothing, the btstanders are as guilty of treason as the perpetrators.
Drill baby drill! Deport baby deport! Go Sarah go! Woohoo! Rebellion is brewing!
