Rep. Huelskamp: Trusting Obama with border security is like trusting Bill Clinton with your daughter

The congressman’s tweet followed a strategy session by House Republicans over the senate’s comprehensive immigration reform legislation. Like many other GOP lawmakers in the chamber, Huelskamp doesn’t support the Gang of Eight’s bill, preferring instead that Congress pass a bill that focuses on strengthening the nation’s borders.

Nonetheless, Huelskamp isn’t very convinced that Obama is the man to handle the job of keeping our borders secure:

Although it was definitely out-of-line, Huelskamp’s statement wasn’t the first – or last, for that matter – time he would use Clinton’s notorious sexual exploits to make a point about immigration reform. The congressman later reiterated his tweet to NBC News, although he did admit that it was “kind of off-hand.”

“But trusting Barack Obama with border security is like trusting my daughter with Bill Clinton,” he said. We just don’t trust him.”

Last month the congressman also told POLITICO that “The idea of letting this administration define border security is like letting Bill Clinton define sexual relations.”

The rest of Huelskamp’s Twitter rampage Wednesday night fit right along with House Republicans’ concerns over why the President can’t be trusted to enforce stronger border security practices.

“The American people want our border secured, our laws enforced, and the problems in our immigration system fixed to strengthen our economy,” House GOP Leaders said in a statement Wednesday. “But they don’t trust a Democratic-controlled Washington, and they’re alarmed by the president’s ongoing insistence on enacting a single, massive, Obamacare-like bill rather than pursuing a step-by-step, common-sense approach to actually fix the problem.
