I disagree with him on this as well but -
Do you think it will get the do nothing Rs to get off their butts and finally allow an immigration bill? I don't.
Obama has been deporting illegals since he took office and the right has been lying about it just as long.
RWs here wanted the kids sent back until they found out that's what Obama was going to do. Now, suddenly, they're against it.
How SICK is that?
I have no idea what you mean that RW'ers don't want the kids sent back now. EVERYONE wants them sent back NOW... Including Hilliary and the Dick-tater. Obama lied about the border being closed. He toured the country bragging about it. OBVIOUSLY -- it's not closed.
He has also cooked the books on deportations, just like the books are cooked on employment numbers and ObamaCare.
Republicans don't want to discuss amnesty. Not until the border is closed and ALL OF the immigration laws are enforced. How can you trust a guy that just up and decides to mouth off and DECLARE that HE will not attempt to prosecute under 18 kids? You can't trust when he says the border is closed and he's deporting more than ever. And you can't trust him to ENFORCE the laws that Congress passes.
Hell, RWs didn't even know about the law requiring we place them in foster homes. Doesn't matter though because, to the right, they're just a political football.
I wouldn't trust even one word from the right because, since Obama took office, all they've done is lie.
To my knowledge, there is no REQUIREMENT to place ANY of these kids into foster homes. Mexican unescorted minors can be deported. These new C. Amer. Kids are entitled to an immigration hearing to plead asylum or produce their cause. They will be TEMPORARILY released to legal relatives in the States OR i suppose can accept a foster placement, until their court date. But the fact is that over 90% of them NEVER SHOW for their court date.
So -- not only did they break the law by coming here, they break the law by ignoring the terms of their release. And YOUR SIDE DEMANDS amnesty and a path to citizenship to REWARD this behaviour? No wonder there is no immigration bill...
