Obama to GOP Congress: Don’t Jeopardize Our National Security

Obama made a budgetary threat regarding DHS. If the Congress doesn't fund this, then DHS will continue working at their jobs without pay.

Wait a second - isn't that slavery?
I guess BHO is not down for the struggle.

    Nah! They're a Federal Union arrangement, they can't strike, but to quote Saddam, It will be the mother of all slow-downs, the backed up border traffic at Laredo, TX will reach the Panama Canal.
    And B.OB, Ph.D. (Piled Higher and Deeper) [His Initials changed to protect perfectly innocent body odor] can't be serious with that complaint, he hasn't left any national or border security to jeopardize.

    Its always 'MORE MONEY" from these guys. As we know, any government stoppage just means they dont get paid now, and get retroactive pay later- courtesy of the people who had to work while the government people were off

    If DHS is mostly about drugs and illegal immigration, then they should NOT be doing "their jobs." Fire them and send them all home. Or at least call Obama's bluff so they can have a nice long vacation.

    Real national security would be security against un-called-for government.

    And I read that they are behind in the rent, so Barry will have to "sweep for food".

    My guess is that he is prepping for a role in the U.N. after he gets the eviction notice from the WH.

    A few weeks ago I said that this lame brain would try to have dippo relations with North Korea, lo and behold it is being reported TODAY that they the US and NK have been having talks about having talks. And the congress is going to jeopardize national security. this human excrement has destroyed US relations with ALL of our allies and friends in the world so all he has left are the dregs of humanity. Maybe he is looking for a place to retire too.

    He's just mad because a JV team is making his national security team look like a middle school squad.

    So right!
    It doesn't take a Sherlock Holmes to figure out that at least one of his former students would be bragging about this all over the internet.

    Good point.
    I have read several articles published in medical journals that state that a large number of doctors nearing retirement age, will go ahead and close their practices early, rather than become 'government workers' under socialized medicine.

    It is not entirely a matter of being able to afford the care. It will also be the availability issue. As we know from the dismal records of healthcare in socialistic Canada and the UK, the waiting list will be just too long and that will take its toll.

    And the part that really sucks about that number is it is just a few of us paying it. So many that do not contribute at all and the rest of us pick up the tab. Grrrr.
