The border crisis isn't Obama's Katrina -- it's worse
2014-07-14
"Bush's approach to Katrina was criticized by his allies and opponents alike, and some of that criticism was deserved, but he never treated the situation in New Orleans as though it was a political opportunity. That is a grotesque abuse of the public trust, but this seems to be the calculation the president and his advisors made."

#6  For all the outrage heard from occasional Border patrol agents, until they decide to quit en masse; this will not get the MSM coverage, however slanted they would then spin it.

#5  Reagan cut a deal with the devil and agreed to amnesty for those illegals that were here. One of his great mistakes thinking that he could trust the Donks and that would be the end of it. The trouble with allowing illegals to enter this country and stay is that: 1) It is not fair to those who are going through the legal process, and 2) It is a poison pill that continues draining this country forever. Securing the border should be a priority for any president; it is a matter of sovereignty and national security--two Constitutional duties of any president.

#4  Good article, but until it gets picked up by the NY Slimes or WaPo, it's just Hot Air.

#1  No matter how "stupid" or "moronic" the Demoleft accuses GOP-Republican POTUSES of being, the US was never left in as high an existential threat as it is under the Bammer.
