What say you?

[GraceG]

I am fine with helping the children who are younger than 10 years old. Then shipping them home to their country of origin...

By using summer vacation empty Public School classrooms as holding pens for the Illegal Hispanic Children Invaders, Obama has insured that these classrooms will not be de-loused and fumigated in time for Public School to start by Labor Day, 2014.

This planned disruption of the normal Public School year was carefully timed to disrupt the Fall Election Campaign, on a number of different topics, not the least of which is to provide a major distraction to numerous Obama scandals, mismanagement, and the total six year failure of the Democrat Party’s Obama as a leader, both Foreign and Domestic.

Did Obama time this Illegal Alien Invasion with the cooperation of the Mexican Drug Cartels, or was this just careful planning by Obama, and staff?

If so, how many US Taxpayer Dollars were paid to these Mexican Drug Cartels?

Should Speaker Boehner begin Articles of Impeachment on Obama before or after OUR children start Public School after Labor Day?

[Boogieman]

“What Glenn Beck is doing is the kind thing to do.”

Sure, it’s kind. However, being kind to those who participate in an organized invasion of your nation is called “giving aid and comfort to the enemy”.

[SoConPubbie]

Ship them back to their parents.

That is the Christian thing to do.

[kabar]

When you reward something, you get more of it. Almost none of these "children" are going back to their home countries. They are being reunited with their illegal alien relatives in the US.

More are on their way knowing full well that as long as they get here, they will be received and allowed to stay. This has nothing to do with border security since the "children" are walking up to the border patrol and turning themselves in. We can add more BP who will act as the welcoming committee along with the hundreds of lawyers who will defend them at taxpayer expense. The average case takes over 500 days.

[skeeter]

I say we shouldn't assume that all, or even most, of these 'children' are arriving yearning to 'breath free'. They are being attracted by the carrot being offered by our government.

Nor should we assume that most of them are even 'children'.

No law, no country, anarchy. Bottom line.

[SkyDancer]

The Christian thing to do is obey Caesar - the laws of the country you're living in.

[Catsrus]

I say people are misunderstanding the Scripture on this - the word sojourner in the Bible means one just passing through - not staying permanently in a country. Once again - the bleeding hearts use the Bible to justify what they do.

[Salvation]

Beck is not a Christian anymore. He is a Mormon.

[Jane Long]

I’m all for churches, groups or individuals donating to provide boxed meals and return bus trips back to Mexico. Anything more than that is aiding and abetting.

[knarf]

There are those in need and there are invaders that want stuff.

Scripture commands us to watch out for the one(s) that does not enter in the proper gate.

Just as some may find divorce in Scripture (but I don't) ... there will be those that find amnesty for the criminal

[sakic]

The children are not the enemy.

They are true victims in every sense of the word.

[lormand]

“Look mom, free citizenship, free food, free shelter, free tuition, and now, free toys!!”

[mulligan]

Why not the same ‘kind’ approach to real honest to God Americans.? Criminals belong in jail or back to where they came from. It is that simple.

[defconw]

I agree with you. These kids are just pawns in an adult game. They need to go home, but they have already been through an ordeal. A ball or a bear will not hurt.

[LostInBayport]

The children are not the enemy. They are true victims in every sense of the word.

I assume your comment excludes the "children" with moustaches and tattoos?

[.45 Long Colt]

He’s not a Christian and he never was a Christian. No one goes in and out of Christianity because no goes in and out of the new birth. People have either been born again or they remain dead in their trespasses and sins. The problem with Rome’s gospel is it puts salvation in the hands of the sinner. In contrast, in biblical Christianity, salvation is by God’s grace (Ephesians 2:8-9), it is “of The Lord.” (Jonah 2:9) Those truly born again “were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” (John 1:13)

[2ndDivisionVet]

Is Glenn getting the younger kids a bike and the older ones a pick-up truck? What about new clothes? iPods? Jordans?

[newnhdad]

They are using their children as a pretense to invade our country and take it down from within. I don’t like the fact that children are being used this way but we can’t encourage this anymore. Glenn should rent buses or planes and send them back to where they came from.
The American people are fed-up.. My sympathy is all used up, my charity is all dried up and the arm on my give-a-damn meter broke off a long time ago..
