On Sunday, a day we as a nation set aside to honor fathers and the bonds of family, I was among the millions of Americans who watched images of children who have been torn from their parents. In the six weeks between April 19 and May 31, the Department of Homeland Security has sent nearly 2,000 children to mass detention centers or foster care. More than 100 of these children are younger than 4 years old. The reason for these separations is a zero-tolerance policy for their parents, who are accused of illegally crossing our borders.
I live in a border state. I appreciate the need to enforce and protect our international boundaries, but this zero-tolerance policy is cruel. It is immoral. And it breaks my heart.
Our government should not be in the business of warehousing children in converted box stores or making plans to place them in tent cities in the desert outside of El Paso. These images are eerily reminiscent of the Japanese American internment camps of World War II, now considered to have been one of the most shameful episodes in U.S. history. We also know that this treatment inflicts trauma; interned Japanese have been two times as likely to suffer cardiovascular disease or die prematurely than those who were not interned.
Americans pride ourselves on being a moral nation, on being the nation that sends humanitarian relief to places devastated by natural disasters or famine or war. We pride ourselves on believing that people should be seen for the content of their character, not the color of their skin. We pride ourselves on acceptance. If we are truly that country, then it is our obligation to reunite these detained children with their parents and to stop separating parents and children in the first place.

Separating children from their limbs and head in the *womb* breaks MY heart.
Me too.
She endorsed the destruction of the Natural Family and Truth (God) by promoting males who sodomize others and a “equal” (Marxist) system which denies a child his natural mother or his natural father.
She and her evil husband celebrate people who sodomize each other and “think” there is a “right” to buy and sell little babies AND KILL THEM if you want. She “thinks” people who desire to sodomize and masturbate each other “Love” each other.
She is a Luciferean, like her Secret Society husband who masturbates (and worse) in coffins. She should NEVER speak of MORALITY-—period. She glorifies Satan, sodomy, baby-selling, and baby-killing.
Dallas Texas 2006, during war time, under Republican George Bush.
500,000 illegal aliens march on Dallas Texas pushing foreign flags in our faces and while making demands and threats. All while Bush celebrated Cinco De Mayo up in the White House each year...During war time. Tens of millions entered during the Bush era and the co$t and victim toll is horrific.
Laura is A OK with knifing a baby out in pieces and sucking it out of a woman’s uterus and can go to hell
Laura Bush it’s their parents and insincere Presidents faults. Individuals who wouldn’t do their job. May God curse them for their sloth.
The Bush family continues to reveal that they are unworthy of our respect.
They are. That is one thing that slows down the whole process. The minors are often not related to the adults they are detained with. The minors are sent with coyotes, friends, whoever. Some are being trafficked for prostitution. The minors and adults will lie about their connections over and over, and show false documents. They will also lie about where their parents are; some of their parents are still in their country and some are already living here illegally. This has to be sorted out, it is difficult and time consuming.
The truth is the illegals separate families as a matter of course through the whole process.
Why didn’t she voice concern when her
husband demanded home loans for millions of unqualified minorities, just a couple years priors to the historic housing crash?
Here is audio of a Bush speech a few short years prior to the crash, demanding home loans for unqualified minorities.

Mrs. Bush, what about the children separated from their parents in this country through death, divorce, incarceration and other reasons?
I figured as much. Why else would President Bonzo refer to them as “unaccompanied minors”. I knew that was liberal BS all along.
She and her husband tolerated Barrack Obama painting them as Nazis without a whimper. Obama does this policy and not a peep as well. Now the media plays her and she lets them.
Very disappointed if she does not ream them for misusing her like this.
STOP accepting ANY person who comes to the border to get citizenship or any kind. Tell people that applications for asylum or citizenship will ONLY be accepted at American Embassies in their home countries.
Then enforce that fact.
Anyone who shows up at the border will be sent home...One free bus ticket for them and their children. Children traveling alone will be escorted back to their home county and returned to parents, relatives or the State.
She's right on this - they should be packed up, given a bus ticket and sent home.
The whole thing is all part of an act, they are all playing their parts and the media tries to convince us it is real. She is not being “misused” it is all part of the game they play.
She never complained when Obama was doing this.
Well, all the murders, driving over people, and other heinous crimes by illegals break my heart even more...
She offered no solution.
