Not to mention those tax monies taken from fishing, hunting, firearm, ammunition, and boating equipment sales going to the States directly instead of the fed's.

Paace Brother. The States need to start standing up to the Feds in a lot of area. A lot of money is skimmed off at the Federal level with no benefit. The DOE serves no useful purpose the EPA would do well in Germany... in 1939 maybe. Tere are a lot of other examples.

U.S. released more than 2,000 illegal immigrants
 
Apparently the administration was a little off in the numbers (seems to be a pattern). If this doesn't give pause to Americans about the leadership and decisions of this administration, I have no idea what it will take.

U.S. released more than 2,000 illegal immigrants due to cuts: report. Internal budget documents show that they were facing deportation and that another 3,000 are due to be set free in March.

WASHINGTON — The Associated Press has learned that the Homeland Security Department released more than 2,000 illegal immigrants facing deportation from immigration jails in recent weeks because of looming budget cuts. It also planned to release 3,000 more during March.

The newly disclosed figures, cited in internal government budget documents reviewed by the AP, are significantly higher than what the Obama administration acknowledged this week as a “few hundred” illegal immigrants who were released under the budget-savings process.

The budget documents show that Immigrations and Customs Enforcement released roughly 1,000 illegal immigrants from its jails around the U.S. each week since at least Feb. 15. The agency’s field offices have reported more than 2,000 released before intense criticism this week led to a temporary shutdown of the plan.

Another classic example of, do as I say do, no what I do. You think the states at some point would pull there pants up and get out of the bed with federal government. How long before, if ever, will the states become responsible and stop looking for a handout?

Honestly, how long will this country's liberal population and mainstream media allow the Democrats and WH to go ass-mouth ass-mouth on them before they finally wake up and realize the shitty "relationship" that they are in?

Maybe all the free stuff keeps them complacent and pacified:confused:

Could not agree more! Thank you for posting Krauthammer's commentary. He highlights the problem, IMO, in that BHO's agenda is not governance as the POTUS (a leadership role), his agenda, as evidenced by his actions not his words, has been and still is one of dividing and marginalizing the opposition. To be fair, the opposition has been making it rather easy by shooting themselves in the foot at every opportunity.

Political bullshit!!!!!
 
Ok first. ICE or CBP has not released any Prisoners this week. No federal LEO's after arresting a person hold them more than 12 hours. This time is to process them in their agency system and had them over to a BOP detention facility. Normally the process is just a couple of hours off to arraignment and the Marshals have them under their control with the BOP facility.......

This week when the media reported that all the illegals were let out due to ICE cutbacks is BULL....... BOP/USMS let them out. Those releases were already scheduled and it was not a mass exodus. This was a staged political media ploy to fan the fires of the White House Game to paint the Republicans as causing such a crime.

Prior to the signature of the Big O last night No One had to cut funding etc etc..... Had a very eye opening meeting with ICE, BOP and USMS yesterday and they were pissed for being used by The WH in this way.

Yes ICE is screwed up but lets put the lame really where it is deserved.

Sorry for the rant but I am tired of these games.

I hope this sequestration, furrows goes for months so it effects way more than just Federal Employees....... The country needs to get their act together and quit spending what they do not have and get a bunch of those worthless politicians out do DC I the next election.

I'm assuming that you're referring to the speaking gluteal furrows in congress and the White House.

So we have to give up security, fireman, and teachers – it is a small price to pay for those essential services we have been able to preserve...
