Top Oklahoma Republicans are outraged that the Obama administration will begin housing as many as 600 illegal immigrant minors at the Fort Sill Army Base as early as Tuesday—at an estimated cost to taxpayers of $252 per child per day.

“Our nation has an immigration problem and a national security crisis, but I don’t believe the answer is for our military facilities to be transformed into a center that houses, feeds, and cares for illegal immigrants,” Sen. Jim Inhofe, the ranking GOP member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said in a statement on Friday.

“This only encourages parents to send their children unaccompanied over the border and, with the average-aged child being between 13 and 17, it exposes our military facilities to unknown security concerns.” …

And send the bill to the respective countries with a sizeable mark-up along with the little ones.

So if I get this straight, we have a Border Control police force thru DHS tasked with securing the border and preventing illegal entry. We spend billions on that agency and it's related DHS components.

Next, we have government agencies acting as travel agents for illegal entrants who we then house, clothe, feed, and provide medical care in government facilities for them at three times the cost of a nice hotel room per night? We spend billions on that as well...............

We are a nation of fools and our government is proud of it. The media loves it. How much will we the people pay out for more democrat voters thru illegal immigration who's sole purpose is to keep up big government spending, pushing a mop or a leaf blower?

Ariz. rushes supplies to site holding migrant kids

Arizona immigrants who are in the country illegally, Arizona officials say they
are rushing federal supplies to a makeshift holding center in the southern part of the
state that’s housing hundreds of migrant children and is running low on the basics.

Conditions at the holding center are so dire that federal officials have asked the
state to immediately ship the medical supplies to the center in Nogales.

These are known as refugee camps. And we know the cost will exceed $252/day/refugee, don’t we? When has a government cost estimate ever resulted in an actual cost equal to or lower than the estimate?

America needs no refugee camps. We need secure borders and a constitutional president, congress and judiciary.

Ah, but Mexico ain’t as nice to illegals as the good old USA is. Remember when Felipe Calderon had the nerve to criticize the USA in Congress for stuff like Arizona’s “low” regarding border security, while he was building a border fence with Guatemala the whole time too?

The insult. The army responsible to defend borders and terror are made to help the enemy denounce us.

Meanwhile our veterans and soldiers are getting sub par housing.

Medical supplies for 60,000 warm bodies...that will take care of a lot of American veterans...
