There has been a lot of spin that somehow the Republicans are blocking the funding of the Department of Homeland Security. This gives new meaning to the word obfuscation. I suppose. or disingenuousness. The truth is the House of Representatives has fully funded the Department of Homeland Security. It has provided the level of funding the President asked for. It has kept all accounts in Homeland Security as approved through the congressional process. It simply says: Mr. President. we considered your billthis amnesty billthat would provide work permits. photo IDs. Social Security numbers. Medicare benefits. and Social Security benefits. and you cant do that.
