59% of Public Blame Obama for Children and Toddlers Crossing Border Into US
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, July 1, 2014, 8:18 AM
Let’s face it. There is no border security under this president.

378 toddlers were able to cross into the United States last year.
Tens of thousands of unaccompanied children have made it across the border this past year.

Nearly 6 in 10 Americans blame Barack Obama for the current immigration crisis at the southern border. 6 in 10 also say the children the be ordered to leave the country.
Investor’s Business Daily reported:

The public largely blames President Obama for the flood of children who have poured over the border in recent weeks, creating a growing humanitarian crisis, according to the latest IBD/TIPP Poll released Monday.

The late June survey found that the public largely blames Obama policies for the crisis in Iraq and believes the lost IRS emails are an administration effort to cover up wrongdoing at the agency.

The poll found that 59% of those closely following the immigration crisis agree that “current administration policies and lack of focus on securing the border” are behind the human tide of illegal crossings. Six in 10 say that the children should be ordered to leave the country. (The survey found that 73% of Americans are following this story closely.)

Hoping to quell public outrage, Obama formally asked Congress on Monday for $2 billion in emergency funds to improve border security, provide more detention space and return children to their native countries.
