Gosh, and he worked so hard to represent America's interests

"Asa Hutchinson to resign from Homeland Security Department":

Undersecretary Asa Hutchinson, in charge of border and transportation security issues, submitted his letter of resignation to the White House early Monday morning, said a DHS official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the resignation had not yet been announced.

Hutchinson is a former Arkansas congressman and former federal drug czar who is believed to be considering a run for Arkansas governor next year. His resignation is expected to be effective March 1.

"It was just a good time to change for me personally and for the department," Hutchinson told the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, which first reported his plans...

Hutchinson has not been looked upon kindly by those of us who think the U.S. has borders. However, he was basically just a symptom. The underlying disease is "compassionate conservatism" and the main carrier is Our Leader who, unfortunately, will not be resigning.

Maybe Hutchinson believed the things he said or maybe he didn't but Hutchinson was basically just doing what he was told.
