Thanks Barack: Obama aides were warned of brewing border crisis

[Acebb]

Heck of a job, Barry

The administration did too little to heed those warnings, according to interviews with former government officials, outside experts and immigrant advocates, leading to an inadequate response that contributed to this summer’s escalating crisis.
Federal officials viewed the situation as a “local problem,” said Victor Manjarrez Jr., a former Border Patrol station chief who led the UTEP study. The research, conducted last year, was funded by the Department of Homeland Security and published in March. A broader crisis was “not on anyone’s radar,” Manjarrez added, even though “it was pretty clear this number of kids was going to be the new baseline.”

When your entire "work" agenda is golfing and going to parties, paying attention to this stuff is a distraction.

If Obama was a surgeon his patients would be covered with bandaids. You have to be able to diagnose before you can do anything preventative. When you don't visit the border when you are right there, when you go on fund raisers the day after Benghazi and the Malaysian plane shoot down, then your priorities are there for all to see. He did not want to go to the border just to have a photo op but the truth of the matter is the only reason he would have gone was to have a photo op. Next thing you know he is playing pool in Colorado for a photo op while Israel is under attack. Obama is very simply the scariest version of Alfred E. Newman ever. "What me worry" can be read into every action and every inaction that Obama makes or does not make. And it is all part of his agenda. And from what I hear his golfing is just as bad as his leadership. How many bogies does a leader get anyway.

Thank goodness:

[h=1]Rick Perry to send troops to border[/h]
Texas Gov. Rick Perry will announce later Monday that he is deploying state National Guard troops to the U.S.-Mexico border, according to a state senator.
..
According to an internal memo obtained by the newspaper, Perry will call for a gradual escalation of Guard troops with the potential of reaching 1,000 troops after one month.

Micheal Savage of 'Savage Nation' theorizes that this puts Perry atop of the pack for the Republican nomination. Perry is showing
some leadership. Obama will probably say only the Federal Government can do that and there may be a standoff between Federal & State troops. As I understand it both federal & state authorities may send troops to the border but if the state does they will have to pay for the troops. Good for Perry, someone finally standing up to the Obama machine, not just talking about doing it.

Another scam at taxpayers expense?

Or should we say never let a crisis go to waste?

The Congressional Budget Office has released its score on how President Barack Obama’s$4.3 billion emergency request on immigration will be spent. The big news? The CBO score confirms that the president’s $4.3 billion emergency request is not warranted. CBO reports that only $25 million of the president’s request would be spent in fiscal year 2014 and the remaining funds would not be spent until the next fiscal year or in the out-years.

no worries, jackwagon Rino Perry has it all figured out

he's called up 1000 from the national guard to be planted at the border to stop illegals from entering. except that, ooops, a national guardsman has no authority to apprehend but he believes their visibility will be a deterrent .... uh, well, unless they watch tv or read the newspaper and now know they can walk by the national guardsman and ask him/her for a light then go along their merry way

looking forward to rand paul vs rick perry debate. will be more one-sided than rolltide vs Che666

So a Republican doing their job instead of bitching and whining?? What a shocker!

Would be a disaster come election time.

Shut up commie

Perry is the male version of Sarah Palin. The dude stands no chance at becoming President. Only places with high concentrations of nut job conservatives can someone like that win (aka Texas).

You really think Perry would have a chance? It would be a disaster for the Republican Party to get embarrassed again. Michael Savage making Perry the front runner? Seriously? This is all they got? Embarrassing!
