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.
Graham said Democrats also attached conditions to the Iraq war funding, leading all Republican senators on a conference committee to refuse to sign the panel’s report.
“I’m incredibly disappointed,” Graham said in an interview. “Congress would serve itself well if we funded border security as my amendment proposes, and it would help us move the immigration debate further down the road.”
As HotAir notes: “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. Graham planned to hold a news conference Wednesday with other senators.
Cowards!

Look at who voted no in the Senate and then see if that *sshole is on the conference committee. If they are, you have the person to hang.
And it is shown once again that the Degenocraps are intent on destroying what is left of traditional America.
How can anyone, any intelligent person who considers themselves an American vote for a POS Democrite?
Border security is intragal to the defense of this country.
