Came across an odd e-mail in the state department area of Wikileaks. Apparantly after the big earthquake there in 2009, former PA Governor Ed Rendell was trying to get Haitian orphans out of Haiti and into Pennsylvania. He had, according to several earlier e-mails, gotten many out but there were 14 that the Haitians gave permission to go but who for some reason the State Department wouldn't let him bring back. This played out over months and at least one died waiting.
Some exceprts:
"I just spoke to Gov. Rendell, and he is strongly urging the WH/State Dept. to allow the orphans into the US. He claims Haitian Government has signed off on it, and US is now standing in the way. He is not open to the argument that we need to follow protocols, and claims we are being bureaucratic. He says if another orphan dies, it will be on us."
Caitlin/Nora - although the decision has not been finalized, Gov Rendell has probably figured out that the 12 children from the Bresma orphanage will not be approved for humanitarian parole. His staff is stating that one of the orphans slated to go to the U.S. has died "within the last few days." I understand that a child at the Bresma orphanage died within the last couple of weeks; that child, reportedly, had been matched with a French adoptive family. In any event, Gov. Rendell is pushing very hard for the USG to permit the children to travel, and dismissing our reasons for not having done so as "bureaucratic."
Hillary is in this e-mail chain personally and in one e-mail says she wants to discuss it when she arrives so it wasn't some low level flunky blocking this. So my question: why did Hillary let orphans die in Haiti but wants to let limitless numbers of muslims from Syria in?
I absolutely agree with you. She and Obama don’t seem to have such scruples about the illegals and the muslims.
My point is that I don’t think you will nail Clinton in this case for her heartlessness, even though she clearly is. The prime minister of Haiti agreed that the vetting protocols should be enforced.
I saw that. Definitely worth watching.
The philanthropist who is one of few who are actually bringing in aid to them states that there is a media blackout about the hurricane aftermath in America because Hillary is vulnerable because of the theft she did following the earthquake.
The situation there is DIRE. God please help those suffering souls.
