But you don't really want the problems to be fixed in a bi-partisan manner.
You want what you want.
You and the House of Reps have forgotten it takes compromise to govern a nation like America.
For the record, I'd probably not smile either if I were Governor Perry. It is a serious problem and it takes the Legislative and Executive Branch to fix the problem.

Red light camera's? Who's talking about red light camera's? Stop trivializing and making jokes of the issue.
Yes, it's been a problem for DECADES. It became a problem when Reagan allowed amnesty in exchange for what he believed would be tougher enforcement. The Democrats went back on their word, watered down the enforcement aspect, and Reagan later regretted the bill.
Congress HAS done this. Republicans HAVE tried to pass bills. Unfortunately, Democrats refuse to vote on any bill which includes border enforcement. obama has also signaled he would veto any bill which isn't exactly as he wants.
You want to whine about compromise, you need to address the lack of compromise with obama and the Democrats. Yes, the Republicans should go halfway....but even if they go halfway, the Democrats and obama refuse to budge at all.
There's enough Republicans to pass immigration in the House...even with a path to citizenship -- provided the bill includes enforcement measures. Democrats refuse to allow that.
Who's not willing to compromise?
Too bad obama's laughing like it's all a big joke. He doesn't care. He's too busy play pool and drinking beer in Colorado to visit the border.
BTW...what would've happened if GWB was seen playing golf during Katrina?
It's a double standard.
