So, let me get this straight, if those mean republicans will only work the omniscient and compassionate Big O, and agree to pass an amnes. . ., I mean “immigration reform” bill, then all this influx of illegals will stop??

Right - and if you believe that one you’ll also believe that the dead will stop voting democrat.

This is weird because I blame providing foreign aid to Central American countries for this “border crisis”. Knock of the foreign aid and this crap will stop.

“Mr. Perez and Mr. Hernandez suggested that more U.S. aid to their countries would help solve the problem.”

Uh huhh....

Is that called ‘blackmail’?

To: MeshugeMikey; All

Where are the FOX News Network’s “Fair and Balanced,” on-the-ground, Live and in Color, News Reports on the horrific, violent events in the Central American Countries that the hordes of Illegal Obama Wetback “Children” are escaping from with only the ‘clothes on their backs?’

Does FOX News Netwrk even bother to question whether of not there is ANY truth to the Obamalie of “Central American Violence?”

Certainly, ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD, the human trafficking of “children” across international borders would have been an irresistible magnet for journalists to reveal the facts of such horrific abuse of children especially to the most pity-filled Liberals.

Did I miss this famous “Fair and Balanced” reporting on Gretchen’s “Real Story,” Shep, Neal, “The Five,” Bret, Greta, Billy O’, Pretty-Face Kelly, or Hannity?

Where is the unique “We report, you decide” documentation by the FOX News Network?

Surely there was an hour-long “Special on the Famous 2014 Central American War on Children” that I somehow missed?

The pity-filled Liberals would have cried all hour as the FOX Journalist interviewed victimized family after victimized family - - - a sure way to boost ratings, among pity-filled Liberals.

Why is FOX’s CEO Roger Ailes helping Obama hide this horrific REALITY side of the story?”

Did Rupert Murdoch ban any on site interviews from Central America?

It is one thing for the Democrat’s Left Stream Media to swallow the con-artist words of Jarrett, Holden, Reid and Obama, but quite another for FOX News Network not even trying to be “Fair” OR “Balanced!”

Right...AS IF any of the US money would be applied to the problem!!

We know better than that. I remember reading about the Central American country that received tens of millions in US aid and built an big fancy airport.

They had no commercial air carriers of their own and NO military to speak of. NICE (I think it was back in the 60’s)

I won't say which country, because I don't trust my memory on THAT.

Last time I checked, guatemala and honduras were not US states or territories, so they can go pound sand.

Oh, and send them back their “children” that they are so concerned about.

My guess is that Obie suggested...that they make these comments....

He may in fact have offered them a gratuity....for doing so.

I don't disagree.

It’s our fault these countries can’t fix themselves. We need to become just like them.

Most of these countries need their own Augusto Pinochet. Pinochet was a rare blessing; he was the kind of person who recognized the power of the free market and the kind of person who did not tolerate Leftist opposition whatsoever. If our Republicans had the same conviction and grounding in realism Pinochet had, our country’s problems would be few in number.

They’re sort of right. If we didn’t hire them, they wouldn’t come here.
