If the 2009 Town Halls were bad for Democrats, just wait

Terrorists coming through the southern border

Obviously, DC doesn’t care. Homeland Security Chief Janet Napolitano visited the U.S.-Mexico border (2011) on Thursday to ensure Americans that it’s safe to travel and conduct business across the border, but Republicans from the Southwest suggested the Obama administration isn’t doing enough to keep the region secure. “There is a perception that the border is […]
