Thank you for posting this. I was just asking Mr. OG last night some of these same questions. Why? What are we getting out of it, obviously someone is benefitting but how? I know Obama wanted to get his “immigration reform” passed - so is that why? He didn’t get his way so he’s forcing the issue? That’s all I can think of but the disaster it’s created doesn’t make him look good and we all know it’s all about him looking good. None of it makes sense.

EDDIE: Longtime listener, Rush. Thanks —
RUSH: Thank you, Eddie.
EDDIE: I'm very concerned about the health care crisis that we're facing and these illegal aliens that are coming into the United States. Doctors are being asked not to talk to the media, they're on gag orders, both doctors and nurses, and we got a big problem because there are a lot of diseases that can come through this border bringing all kinds of stuff —
RUSH: Eddie, I just read that in some cases the lice are so bad you can see them crawling down the faces of some of the kids.
ANN: Yeah, the lice won't kill you, but Ebola will, and so will gonorrhea and there's syphilis and AIDS and hepatitis and diphtheria and polio, meningitis, and this new coronavirus coming in from the Middle East, so —
