A Fool's Errand -- Graham Sent to Convince Republicans on Amnesty

A Fool's Errand
Graham Sent to Convince Republicans on Amnesty

American Border Patrol Comment -- March 5

We're going to tell the bigots to shut up... (the entire Republican party?)

    Last Monday, Barack Obama met with Senator Lindsay Graham and others to lay out a plan get a new amnesty bill passed through Congress (L.A. Times).
    According to the Times, the new bill would include "improved border security" and that Obama's support for the bill was "unwavering."
    While Graham was huddling with Obama and Senator Schumer, the Washington Times hit the street with a story on just how badly the Department of Homeland Security had managed the discredited "virtual fence" system. The Times story also included a map, developed with the help of American Border Patrol, showing what kind of "fencing" actually exists along the border - exposing DHS lies about what it had built.
    Obama had voted for the Secure Fence Act - a fact that irritated his Latino allies.
    Faced with increased drug violence along the border, Americans are demanding greater security, but instead Obama has proposed cutting funding for border security and is opposed to completion of the border fence.
    Senator Graham is now on a mission to convince Republicans that, despite devastating unemployment, meltdown of the "Illegal Immigration State," border laxity and rising violence in Mexico, they should vote for an amnesty bill that would legalize twenty million illegal aliens setting off a flood of new illegal immigration. This is a fool's errand indeed.
