Border Wars

As we’ve covered in recent days, the government and private citizens are competing to see who can do least to protect the border.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, a Republican from South Carolina, said Tuesday that Democrats had stripped from a defense spending bill a $3 billion border-security amendment that the Senate passed overwhelmingly last month.

On a serious note, the Senate passed that amendment 95-1. So who yanked it?

Aides to Democratic leaders of the Senate and the House failed Tuesday evening to return phone calls seeking comment on Graham’s claims, or said they didn’t know anything about the issues.

I believe the exact quote was “Hamana-hamana-hamana-hamana.”

Advantage, government. (Or should that be disadvantage?)
