Are Republicans Really Going to Shut Down
Posted: Feb 23, 2015
With their terrible concern with ISIS and the handling of terrorist activities, they will risk the shut down of DHS? This just doesn't make sense.
Republicans are willing to risk the security of the U.S. homeland to make a political point on immigration. Once again, the Republican party is divided on their own approach.
"If the agency is shut down, about 15 percent of its 230,000 employees — roughly 30,000 — would be furloughed. The rest, deemed essential, would be expected to continue working, but without receiving their regular biweekly paychecks. Transportation Security Administration officers at airports, Border Patrol agents, front-line law enforcement officials and members of the Coast Guard would be required to report to work."
(This sounds like MT, no work, just sit and wait, no pay, just sit there. At least they get to do something with no pay?);
I hope so. They are funded now and their best (sm) - Idiots in charge

I agree. This sounds like a good idea to me. Let the courts deal with immigration that Mr. O tried to get through by EO
The borders are a moot point anyway thanks to BO. - He does not care.

Bring in the immigrants, any and all. He wants/needs more people obliged to his clown party to get more votes to keep more people oppressed to have more government control to.....He believes in communism, marxism and socialism! He does not respect the U.S. Constitution. Period!

Obama Should Keep His Arrogant Trap Shut.Mar 08, 2010There's really just one conclusion to be reached, which is that the majority of Americans are coming to fear and hate Obama. He's shed independent voters at a rate never seen before since tracking began.
When Obama opened his big yap about healthcare, his rating was crappy at -12 (Rasmussen). Since then, it's dropped even further to -19. Now, I don't know if you realize it or not, but that puts Obama right smack dab in the middle of Bush territory when the financial cri ...
