Who made him God? Much less King?
Where is it in his power to do so?


Execution is too good for that crook against the nations sovereignty.

It needs to be slow & painful, just like he has created for Americans in the last 5 years of his lack of leadership.

Ok, I will give you my honest answer without trying to be partisan and then hope you will do me the same favor. I do feel sorry for the little children coming here, especially making that far a journey. Having said that, we have so many of our own children living in poverty or in families that are just living paycheck to paycheck. We cannot take care of every child that needs help in the world, that is a statistical fact. I would like to see the money that has been and will be spent, go to children already here. Do you realize the money that has already been spent could have provided food, clothes, etc. for kids here that desperately need it?

Come on let's hear your reasoning and how you explain your so-called conservative compassion?
Yep, my party is better then yours and so are my illegals. Cubans support {R}s and are welcomed and Hispanics support {D}s so they are welcome. Wilkie had it right " there is not a dimes difference between either party"

They are finding out more than 3/4 have families here illegally. They coming on orders from the parents and brother & sisters already illegally here, to get here fast.

If YOU use illegal drugs, hire illegal workers or buy products made by illegal workers YOU are the problem.

True, but how many on this board does that apply to?

Hey, that is an insult!
There is some of the best pot in the world grown in the mountains around Northern California, and the basements in Albany NY.
No one wants that Mezgin Swag.
You can make opium & heroin from the poppy bulbs that grow along the train tracks all over the SW US.


Ever been to a farmers cow pasture in the spring? Shrooms!

There is some peyote to be had all over SW USA.

Obama is what he always has been a law braking president and continues to do what he wants when political reasons are a play and advantages.

Otherwise he is on the golf course.

When your sending US planes to other countries so you can fly them in is just plain wrong.

What about the topic at hand? Should we send these kids back to violence riddled communist countries, or should we grant them Liberty and Justice here in the US?
