McCain Invites Obama to Visit Border
ABC News ^ | 2010-07-04

Posted on 07/04/2010 9:36:57 AM PDT by rabscuttle385

In an EXCLUSIVE interview on “This Week,” Senator John McCain, R-Ariz., invited President Obama to the Arizona border.

“[Sen.] Jon Kyl and I invite the President to come to the Arizona Sonora border. The violence is incredibly high,” McCain said. “The human smuggling and drug cartels are at a level of violence where 23,000 Mexican citizens have been murdered in the last few years. … There is a level of violence which has increased to a significant degree which makes the situation far different than it was in 2007,” he said.

“We have to secure the borders,” McCain said. “We can get it secure then we can move on with comprehensive immigration reform. But I invite the President to come to the border and he can see for himself the absolute necessity of getting our border secure.”

Lying old fool. He KNOWS how bad it was in 2007...he did NOT care! And not one word about the thousands and thousands of dead Americans, like Rob Krentz, murdered in his home state, not to mention our consulate employees.

FLUSH THE JOHN! (To the tune of Frankie & Johnnie)

Johnny and Teddy were Senators
On opposite sides of the aisle
They got together and drafted a bill
Guaranteed to make illegals smile
Amnesty was their game – and they had no shame

Johnny and Senator Feingold
Gave campaign finance a try
But then the highest court in the land
Said the 1st amendment must apply
Gotta play by the rules – now Johnny looks like a fool

Johnny and Mr. Obama
They both agree Gitmo should close
But bringing terrorists into the USA
Is a plan that we oppose
No, they don’t belong – and Johnny’s got it all wrong

Now Johnny and Senator Lieberman
Got together on cap and trade
Anemic hands across the aisle
Gonna send the country to its grave
It’s time to let him know – old Johnny’s gotta go

Johnny believes Global Warming
Limousine Liberals and all
Congressional junkets to Copenhagen
Everybody’s havin’ a ball
Just ask Al Gore - Johnny knows the score

S & L Man Charlie Keating
He came to Johnny one day
Said “the government boys are sniffing around
How much to make ‘em go away?”
Did Johnny take a bribe to join the Keating 5?

Now fast-forward 20 years later
Banks are in trouble again
Johnny says, “Let’s bail ‘em out
It’s just a trillion – or maybe ten.
Let’s put some wind in their sails – ‘cause they’re too big to fail.”

We know there’s oil in Alaska
Drilling won’t cause any harm
But Johnny agrees with the tree-hugging geeks
Gas is gonna cost a leg and an arm
Johnny why can’t you see what’s good for you and me?

Now everyone knows about ACORN
They get lots of taxpayers’ dough
Prostitution rings and voter fraud
And home loans to any old schmoe
No matter ACORN’s crimes – Johnny thinks they’re just fine

We’re tired of hearin’ your flip-flops
We’re tired of hearin’ your lies
You may think we’re all dummies but you can’t
Pull the wool over our eyes
You’re career’s hit a snag - so start packin’ your bags

‘Cause Johnny, you’ve worn out your welcome
It’s time to bid DC goodbye
Go write a book or learn to cook
And eat a little humble pie
Just ask Sheriff Joe – he says you gotta go

Yeah, go Johnny, go – it’s time to hit the road.
Good-bye

“FUJM!”

I like that!

Here I was all set to fire off a “Get Bent, Juan-Boy!”.

You did good!

at a level of violence where 23,000 Mexican citizens have been murdered in the last few years.

Mexican citizens? Hey, Juan, that's YOUR priority - NOT The Constitution and NOT the Americans living in AZ and those that were killed and harassed by those you want to protect.

Get lost traitor.

McCommie is a POS who has no clue what it’s really like on the border. Honestly, I’m not even sure how often he’s personally lowered himself to visit the actual border (not just BP or city offices). And even if he had, he’d have to stay awhile, talk to ranchers, see the trash, the rape trees, etc.

We saw a billboard yesterday north of Tucson with his mug on it, claiming he’s for border security. *vomiting*

I’m generally a big Palin supporter, but this new “first secure the border” nuance from the McCains of the world has me worried about her approach of securing the border before discussing anything else on immigration.

Even Obama claims not to ‘support amnesty’ because he says he’d require back taxes and fines. I hope the Native American streak in Todd’s family hasn’t somehow led her to reflexive Latin American sympathies—whether or not illegality is involved.

That's exactly right. It was already too violent at the end of 2006, when I stopped going down there completely.

We were shut out of many hiking trails in '98 when the long lines of criminals started in earnest, but there were still areas we could go and camp until about 2004. Well, we could still go there now and it'd practically be like camping in Baghdad...

move on with comprehensive immigration reform.

Alas, McCain has no intention of supporting effective reform -- deportation; cutting off the welfare freebies; fining illegal-hiring employers; rescinding the 1965 Immigration Act and anchor baby laws.

Until the border is secure, they will keep coming,

I don't remember Obama ever visiting the border. I guess Arizona, New Mexico and Texas don't have good golf courses.

And leave the Secret Service at home... after all the border is “the most secure it has ever been,” right?

NObama probably has consulted Peggy West, the Milwaukee City council member, for his travel plans.

She doesn’t think Arizona is ‘on the border’.

EXACTLY! McCain wants amnesty. Securing the border is only PART of the solution. Illegals still come in on tourist visas and just stay. We need to enforce ALL immigration laws that you suggest.

Maybe they should BOTH go to the border, there's a nice little park down there, uh - "Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge"? Perhaps they could go for a stroll through the beautiful park together and enjoy the sights and sounds of our beautiful Southwest.

Sights: Illegals Running around

Sounds: Gunfire
