If the Mexican government spent half as much time on efforts to improve their country, as they do whining and begging the U.S. to keep their underclass, perhaps they wouldn’t have to rely on the U.S. to provide a livelihood for more than 10% of their citizens. Clearly, they have no shame.

Mexican and Mexican-American leaders of U.S.-based immigrant-advocacy groups urged President Barack Obama to issue an executive order halting deportations until a long-promised immigration overhaul is approved.

"If there's not going to be immigration reform, then halt the deportations and stop separating our families," Angela Sanbrano, with the Chicago-based National Alliance of Latin American and Caribbean Communities. .

"Separating their families"? Who is doing that? They have the option of returning to their homelands with the whole family in tow.

Of course they do. However, then, they wouldn’t have a sob story. I am still trying to understand why they are not separating families when they abandon spouses and children to come here, and often never return after starting “new” families. But, somehow, we are separating families when we return them to their homeland.

So, who separated the family when one family member left for the US leaving the rest behind? They are so desperate to live off the US tax payers their enablers have resorted to flat out lies.

They exhibit the entitlement mentality we see far too often
today and the sad part is to many Americans seems to support
this UN-AMERICAN idea

And sadly it's the Democratic Party that appeals to their emotions with promises they can not afford or keep
