Texas Rep. Lamar Smith: Not 'a Single Penny' to Obama Until He Secures Border
Breitbart ^ | 8 Jul 2014 | Caroline May

Posted on 07/09/2014 8:04:50 AM PDT by Cheerio

Congress should not provide the Obama administration with any additional funding until it uses current resources to secure the border and confront illegal immigration, according to Texas Republican Rep. Lamar Smith.

“This isn’t a funding problem, it’s an enforcement problem. Rather than enforce our nation’s immigration laws, the President has chosen to ignore them. Instead, he continues to call for massive amnesty for millions of illegal immigrants,” Smith said.

Tuesday, President Obama submitted his emergency funding request to Congress – seeking $3.7 billion to deal with the ongoing influx of unaccompanied children and family units illegally entering the United States.

Since October, more than 52,000 unaccompanied children and 39,000 women with children have been detained illegally crossing the southern border. The vast majority are from El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala – and come believing they will be allowed to remain in the United States.

“The President has no one to blame but himself for the current crisis on the Southern border. He granted amnesty to illegal immigrant minors by promising not to deport those brought to the U.S. illegally by their parents,” Smith said. “As a result, tens of thousands of illegal immigrants are now flooding across the border.”

The operative words here are "Congress should not ... but they will not follow through. We all saw how the Media, the clown and his party, and the GOP-e leadership treated Cruz and Lee for allowing Reid and Zero to shut down the government for 17 days.

Obama brand extortion. How much will filter to his cronies and his off-shore bank accounts? I think Obama wants to be the natural successor to George Soros, using his ill gotten gains to control politics when his term ends.

IMPEACH

Mathew 7:15 “Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. “You will know them by their fruits.”

As Obama’s 2008 Political Campaign received unprecedented endorsments of world depots such Chavez and Iran’s Ahmadinejad, there were many unanswered questions about Obama’s history. The dubious endorsments and concerns were drowned out by an adoring media and equally influencial Hollywood machinery. Concerned Americans were ridiculed in the media, labeled “birthers”, and alarming facts were dismissed as “neocon” racism.

The link between drugs and crime, including violent crime, would be hard to overstate in Chicago. Eighty-six percent of adult males arrested in Chicago last year tested positive for drug use. Chicago, with a population of 2.7 million, had 506 murders in 2012, the highest per capita among the four most populous U.S. cities.

Banning the teaching and speaking of Spanish in Public Schools would expel many Illegal Alien Invaders from US Public Schools, and thus reduce the financial impact to US Taxpayers whose taxes pay for Public Schools.

The failure of the Obama Administration to protect the Citizens of the US from the expenses and job losses caused by the Invasion of Illegal Alien Invaders from Spanish-speaking countries proves that this Obama-caused “Dreamer” Invasion was implemented by Obama to “Fundamentally transform the United States of America.”

Even if he did secure the borders today, 3.7 Billion ? They have to question how that number was arrived at, and what is it going to be spent on.
The country needs more business people in charge of the finances and a lot less lawyers.
Especially lawyers who have lost their ability to practice the law

I have some good Mexican friends in Corpus Christi, US Citizens, and they absolutely hate wet-backs!

Last year, we had a big dove hunt and BBQ and they and their friends really surprised me, actually used the term wet-backs.

So not all US Mexican citizens support illegal immigration, I'm sure they in the minority.

I also have a good friend from Mexico, who is not yet a citizen, but is married to one. She also has used the term “wetbacks.” So, it must be a derogatory term for Mexicans to call others this.
