Senate (GOP) rejects amendment to build border fence

All along Republicans have been saying that before anything happens on Immigration Reform, the border needs to be secure. Today, Speaker of the House John Boehner told NBC that the Immigration Reform Bill's reinforcement of the U. S. border with Mexico was "laughable." Remember it is up to the Speaker to decide if a vote is held on anything in the House. Boehner plans to keep Immigration Reform off the House docket. From what I am reading, it looks like Republicans will keep Immigration Reform off in 2013.

Based on the election promises made to Hispanics by President Obama, it has been reported that the president is furious. This will be the president's second broken promise to Hispanics on immigration.

Yes, there are outlying areas where this is all the fencing
between the United States and Mexico.​
 
None of this really matters, the house will never pass the senate bill.

If all the democrats vote for it and a number of Republican dupes agree, they sure will.

Congress was never going to pass Obamacare either. They still deemed it passed and pushed it through.
 
Nah, can't build a fence. We don't have the skilzz or the nads.

Lock and load- You're going to need it.

Senate rejects amendment to build border fence | The Daily Caller


and you rino's thought voters sat home during Romney, you ain't seen nothing yet.

Thank goodness, it was a stupid and very expensive idea.

Yeah making sure our borders are secure so drug lords cant come over the border and kill our citizens is a stupid expensive idea.

We could never build a fence high enough to keep them out if they want to get here bad enough. Back to the drawing board.

Put reserve troops and drones on the border. Also, new blimp technology can assign a transponder 'squawk' code to a person and follow these guys no matter where they travel.

It's just we don't want too

Yeah we could. We put a man on the moon. You think we cant build a freakin fence that works?

So you realize that the fence isn't a viable option then? We need updated ideas and the GOP doesn't seem to be forthcoming. You all want safer borders, stop the partisan bullshit and get to work.

Even nutball scum bumble into daylight once in a while.

The only way to stop illegal immigration is to prosecute corporations hiring illegals.

For what it's worth, when the fence IS built, it will be as much to keep people in as out.

Corporations seldom, if ever, hires illegals. It's the little guy. The gardening service, construction company, neighborhood restaurant, a busy person looking for a nanny or housekeeper. Fortune 500 companies don't. Farmer's hire field workers. Bring back the bracero program.

There is absolutely nothing unviable about it. The fact that we realize we need to do more than just that doesn't mean we think it's unviable.

Right now, people can just walk across the border. A fence would make that more difficult. There may be some peopel who still find a way to get through, but making it so people have to think creatively to get through will deter more people. So will making legal immigration easier.
