Sen. Durbin: ‘Fed Up’ with House GOP Criticizing Admin over Immigration (VIDEO)
Mediaite ^ | July 6 2014 | Evan McMurry

Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) told Face the Nation host Bob Schieffer Sunday morning that he’d had enough of congressional Republicans criticizing the Obama administration over immigration policies when they’d refused to take up the bipartisan immigration reform bill passed by the Senate last year.

“I am really getting fed up with some of the critics of this administration, particularly from House Republicans,” Durbin said. “They had the opportunity for one solid year to call the immigration reform bill, and yet they refused to. Now they’re arguing we need more enforcement at the borders and a lot of other things? When are they going to accept their responsibility to govern?”

Just a few minutes before, Schieffer had asked Senators John McCain (R-AZ) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) how it felt to be members of a party that refused to act; both said President Barack Obama’s alleged preference for executive actions made bringing aboard House GOP members more difficult.

Stand up GOP.

Stop the illegal immigration flood.

Now. America needs borders. Real borders.

This is a very large issue. Stand up now.

I am completely fed up with the idiot Dick Durbin thinking he is so brilliant that there’s no aspect of human activity he can’t run — from credit card fees to medical insurance and everything in between.

His support of a traitor and dictator like Obama would have earned him a richly deserved coat of tar and feathers had he lived in colonial America.

Thank goodness for gridlock with liberal dolts like Turban Durbin in office. I loathe his sanctimonious unctuousness.

They already tried, he rejected the move. Another rat NIMBY, after forcing them on others.

I am fed up with the inability of Republicans to expose democrats and their accomplices in the media. How hard can it be? Existing laws on the books are not being followed. The administration is encouraging people to break the law and then prohibiting agents from complying with the laws. Until that is done why even discuss new laws?

When are they going to accept their responsibility to govern?”

Turn to your President Mr. Durbin and ask the same question. Rule of law or rule of man.

“Prosecutorial discretion” has been transformed into “enforcement discretion” is the reason the House will not bother to entertain any new immigration laws.
