Thankfully, no food was thrown: A lunch between President Obama and Republican Senators grew heated on Tuesday, with Tennessee Senator Bob Corker attacking the president's "audacity" in using the GOP as "props" while he pushed through his initiatives with "party-line votes." A source says that Obama told Corker, "just because Corker didn't get what he wanted he shouldn't get so mad." But Corker wasn't the only one to butt heads with the president. His old rival, John McCain, says that he told Obama, "We need to secure the borders first. He didn't agree"—which seems odd, considering Obama followed up the meeting by announcing plans to send 1,200 National Guardsmen to the Mexican border. The Daily Beast's Bryan Curtis floated the Rio Grande to see the immigration war's biggest flashpoint up close.
Politicians, like flags in the wind. The Arizona immigration Law is to be questioned because it did not originate "here". Now an effort to do something. What that will be remains to be seen. Perhaps the guard will be there to assist people to come across?
Yesterday I heard McCain describe what was going on in Arizona as "Violence beyond description"...But when he visited Iraq at the height of a "war" where an estimated 1 million people have died he described it as "safe and stable"...Lol
A Phoenix police officer was shot and killed around 1 a.m. at a gas station-convenience store. If the suspect turns out to be an illegal alien, get ready for some real fireworks.
