Democrats stop bid to send 6,000 troops to border KLP Note: As of today, as far as I'm concerned, ANY murder, rape, any crime committed by an ILLEGAL alien, will be DIRECTLY CAUSED by the DEMOCRATS…..!!! This is their watch, they have dragged their feet, hemmed and hawed, and generally turned their backs on ANYTHING that looked like help to the AZ citizens….. And for that matter, to ALL US citizens….we don't really think that these people who have broken our laws to get here are going to stay in AZ do you? They are on their way to your neighborhoods. Maybe they should all converge on the WH and the Democratic House and Senate offices….these folks seem to want them to stay in the US so badly………LET them deal with the ILLEGALS. Democrats stop bid to send 6,000 troops to border May 27 10:36 AM US/Eastern Comments (183) Email to a friend Share on Facebook Tweet this WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama's Democratic allies in the Senate have repelled a move by presidential rival John McCain to send an additional 6,000 National Guard troops to the U.S-Mexico border. The Arizona Republican says the security situation along the order has deteriorated so badly that 3,000 guard troops are needed just to help protect his state. But McCain failed to muster the required 60 votes for his plan as the Senate continued debate on an a war funding bill. Obama on Tuesday promised to send 1,200 Guard troops to the border to support efforts to block drug trafficking and temporarily supplement Border Patrol agents until more agents can be trained. Former President George W. Bush sent thousands of Guard troops to the border in 2006.
