Border Insecurity
Obey calls for "compromise" on securing our borders.
Rep. David Obey, D-Wis., said the House is dominated by "100 hardheads who think it is a mortal sin to compromise,"
Let's remember that Obey voted against the House immigration bill which effectively calls on the United States to secure the borders and create real enforcement for employers first. I think most people saw the failure of the 1986 amnesty to secure our borders and want some tangible evidence that the enforcement measures will be put in place before compromising on a temporary worker program again.
While Obey was in Congress in 1986, he apparently conveniently forgot that it didn't work very well the first time.
P.S. Can anyone name a time when Obey compromised with a Republican on anything he believed strongly in? We didn't think so.
