If you’ve ever wondered why Congress has such a bad reputation, just listen to Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee’s laughably misinformed comments about America’s Southern Border:
“The president has spent $108 billion on border security, and we have been successful,” Jackson Lee said in a Homeland Security committee markup Wednesday. “Oh we’ve had our moments, but we have been successful.”
She went on to claim Obama had everything under control when thousands of unaccompanied minors flooded into the country last summer.
“I know we had a disagreement,” she said, referring to Republican critics who blamed Obama’s policies for the flood of immigrants. “They had operational control,” she said.
