Obama: Give Me $3.7B to Fix a Border I Said Was Secure In 2012
Investor's Business Daily ^ | 07/08/2014 | IBD Staff

Immigration: During his re-election campaign, President Obama said emphatically that the southwestern border was secure. Now he wants billions to cope with the flood of illegals crossing that very border.

According to various news accounts, the number of illegals coming across the border has surged to 35,000 month. In just the past few months, more than 50,000 unaccompanied children crossed over, creating a huge humanitarian crisis.

How can this possibly be happening?

After all, didn't Obama tell us when he ran for re-election that the border with Mexico was secure?

As a matter of fact, he did. Many times.

This money is NOT to help curtail the invasion influx of these illegals in any manner.

This money is for temporary upkeep and processing (so he can still give hundreds of millions to the Muslim Brotherhood around the world in foreign aid) of these invaders.

It is to get them lawyers to argue their refugee status, to get them government sponsored coyotes (escorts) to irretrievably disperse them around the country like a metastasized cancer.

Congress: Your marching order should be NOT ONE MORE DIME!

And of that $ 80,000, $ 7,999.99 will go to the Democrat politician’s pocket[s]. i.e. back to obama.

not one more dime

One-way flights back to their homelands would be acceptable. Anyone who snuck into the country isn't a "refugee".....refugees identify themselves and apply for that status. If they were really "refugees" they'd be in the first country they came to.

NOT ONE of them should stay. Let the do-gooders go back to the homelands with them and care for them there.

Beyond disgusted...

You can put them in the back of military cargo planes and chalk the flights up to aircrew training.

You are also correct on the refugee thing. First border you come to is usually as far as you need to go.

The ba$tard created this problem himself and NOW he wants us to give him money to “fix it”? OUTRAGOUS!!!!!!!

The only way to fix the problem is to turn the illegals away and send them back to where they came from. Stop all planes entering here that are full of illegals and send them back to whence they came. Close the borders and rehire all laid off border patrol, if more are needed (job creation) do so. I, like millions of other Americans, are sick and tired of odumbo’s BS. Get rid of him as well. It has past time to start a revolution.

The real cost is incalculable. They will eventually cost us our freedom. They are the undisputed tipping point for politics here.

I say take it out of the SNAP allocations - make it really hurt for the Democrats to create new voters.

Dave, what is happening is no accident. It was carefully planned months, if not years ago, just not executed until now. Laws were in acted for the purpose of enabling it. And for every, "child" and "mother" let in, 10 future terrorist , not including the "children" and " mothers" get in and a good number of the "children" and "mothers" will morph into terrorists.

What you are watching is the planned, systematic destruction of the United States of America. What is now happening has been planned and executed by individuals in the highest level of Government. They are also assisting and enabling also.

Actually, we can probably just take the money out of the DEA and the war on drugs. With the boarder essentially unguarded, there is no sense in even pretending that we can stop the flow of drugs.

Kind of pathetic when you think about it, isn't it? How many pounds of human being have just walked into the country during the last month? I'll bet the weight of all the drugs imported in a year is less than one twentieth of that amount!

I agree 100%. Barry's low information freeloaders should feel at least some of the pain. Maybe they won't be so quick to shoot off their big mouths all of the time.

We study politics and intel that comes “across our desk” daily and have seen way more than enough evidence to know this truth but what about the LIVs. They don’t have a clue. The type information we know (and develop) needs to be distributed through social media that they watch because we can’t depend on our own limp wristed (R) senators / representatives to o what is right. They are not affected by this mad man’s action. They are given very nice salaries and perks and live in the lap of luxury plus are a protected class that is much like the (D)s they pretend are their enemies. They are exempt from Obamacare. They have no reason to stop him unless they are men of integrity and strong moral fiber who understand the importance of honor and duty. Given their cushy lifestyles they have obviously grown complacent and apathetic. Only the citizens can force the impeachment of The One now. It will take using his own people against him to get this accomplished IMO. They’re going to have to be educated.

Not one freaking dime until the borders are secure and then only appropriations for deporting every last illegal trhat can be found and caught! Put them up in those so called FEMA camps until then.
