GOP Establisment: Congress Should Give Obama 'Blank Check' to Address Border Crisis
Breitbart ^ | July 12, 2014 | Tony Lee

Posted on 07/12/2014 1:28:47 PM PDT by lilyramone

While liberal activists keep pushing Democrats to make more concessions regarding the flood of illegal immigrant children across the border, GOP consultants in D.C. are suggesting that Republicans roll over and approve President Barack Obama's request for $3.7 billion without any concessions.

And they are doing so to liberal outlets like the Huffington Post.

Since only $400 million of those funds would actually go to strengthen border security, Republicans have been wary of giving the Obama administration a "blank check" without getting some concessions, like having National Guard troops on the border or changing a 2008 law that prevents the federal government from immediately deporting illegal immigrants who are not from Mexico or Canada.

None of that money will go to border security, even the $400M is probably a lie

FU GOP! We should be carpet bombing Mexico for aiding and abetting illegals. What a bunch of p*ssies we’ve become, allowing Hispanics to realize their dream of Aztlan. THIS IS WAR. This is black Obama using Hispanics to crush the white race!

Of course they are. Just like they suggested Republicans roll over and approve obamacare, and TARP, and the GM bailout, and every other worthless socialist idea obi-wan-idiot has come up with.

Which begs the question, what is it that makes them REPUBLICAN consultants, since they're no different than the Demorat consultants who are urging the same thing?

DC may claim to want to fix this border crisis with $3.7B. But truth be known that this will merely be a drop in the bucket on future taxes required to sustain the invaders. I hope no one around has any romantic notions of ‘Private Property’ in the near future. You know what ‘educational programs’ do to property taxes.

It’s like the question I always ask,
“If Republicans behave like Democrats, why do we need two parties?”

To keep you from voting for someone who's not in on it.

Are they stuck on stupid?

They aren't stupid. Their economic interests simply are not aligned with ours.

Maybe it’s time to declare war with Mexico, unless of course, No-brains-bama made a clandestine agreement with them to implement this Guatemalan “share the love” thing; then, WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?. It does seem, though, that the 2 countries to our south arranged this program assuming that we would cave in and agree to it. Perhaps this is why Dim Bulb refuses to do anything about deporting the invaders. THIS STILL PISSES ME OFF BIG-TIME.

Like the Stimulus, the money will vanish into a dark hole, and the MSM will tell us it’s all fixed.

The States could do it on their own under Article 1, Section 10 of the US Constitution -

No State shall, without the Consent of Congress...engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay.

I can’t stand the Republican Party. I’d rather have the Democrats control everything, so people can fully digest how radical their policies are.

The folks with money for ads (Rats and GOPe) support the invasion.
