‘Trusting Obama with border security like trusting Clinton with your daughter’
Most House Rs agree w/ most Senate Rs and Americans. Trusting Obama w/ border security is like trusting Bill Clinton w/ your daughter #tcot

Ouch!
Predictably, there were two kinds of reactions on Twitter. The first kind of reaction was “loved it”:
Classic!!!! KS Rep. Huelskamp: ‘Trusting Obama w/ border security is like trusting my daughter w/ Bill Clinton’ – @NBCNews

The second type of Twitter reaction was “offended that Huelskamp doesn’t think Obama’s strong on border security”:
@politicsnation Pls call out this despicable behavior. RT “@ericlewis0: @LiberalPhenom Huelskamp http://t.co/pmTKVPrMTx”

A third school of thought was that Huelskamp’s rather dated joke in regards to a former president who was impeached for lying under oath about “sexual relations” with an intern in the Oval Office is evidence that he thinks about sex too much. And by “he” we mean Huelskamp:
@rosierifka Wow. Just wow. They can't take their minds off #sex for one damned minute. Rep #Huelskamp is a #RWNJ

As Huelskamp’s quote makes the rounds, here’s some predicted media perspective:
