Another set-up. Guess who is paying for her therapy?

I'm cheering too.

“Thank you for being here, and thank you for coming forward and speaking…the answer still kinda remains the same: we have laws and we need to follow those laws, and that’s where we’re at.”

So basically the headline was for sensationalism.

No bias here...

The anti-immigration advocates in the crowd reportedly applauded and cheered in response as Josie took her seat, head down.

Did you see the source?

[Nachum]

Is Martin Bashir here legally?

[elpadre]

deportation should include entire family - anchor kids included. The kids shouldn’t be able to claim citizenship until 18 years of age.

I have a gift for Jessica, too. It’s a really small violin...to soothe those lonely therapy sessions.

[Navy Patriot]

yeah, I'm gettin’ tired of these setups as well.

The anti-ILLEGAL immigration advocates in the crowd reportedly applauded and cheered in response as Josie took her seat, head down.

Corrected to remove the MSNBS lies.

Doubt it.

“I have a dad who’s undocumented. What can I do so he can stay with me?”

The guy blew it, and came off as totally dogmatic nd insensitive. The right answer might have been...

"We all know how important it is for all of us to remain together as a family. That is commendable.
"However, since we have laws, and without them we are all much poorer, the alternative to keep a loving family together is to go with him. That is easily arranged. Thank you for asking."

Pathway to citizenship: Go to your home country and apply for a green card.

“I have a dad who’s undocumented. What can I do so he can stay with me?”

Uhhhh. . . Go home with him?

Or wait till he's sorted his legal thing out, like kids from Italy 70 years ago— whose fathers came to America from Italy (legally) to work for several years, sent money home, and then rejoined their families back in Italy? And maybe immigrated together later? There are all kinds of possibilities.

Or is your family too special for that? You demand better service than what Americans got?

[latina4dubya]

Exactly! That would have been the perfect answer in more ways than one...

[Trueblackman]

I am sick and tried of these career politicians trying to put these invaders before Americans and those who have come here legally.

[2ndDivisionVet]

How about “We’ll do the same thing the Mexican government would do for an illegal alien family in similar circumstances.”

I’ve noticed recently that the MSM networks (CNN and MSNBC in particular) have hired an inordinate number of immigrants for their shows. Some can hardly speak understandable English and none of them have read the Constitution or understand American concepts of law.

[Balding_Eagle]

I’ll bet, upon reflection, he wishes he had said exactly that.

[Hostage]

I have to say I ‘feel’ for Josie. But she needs to assign the hurt and pain she is experiencing to her father who broke laws and to the organizations such as La Raza that encouraged the lawbreaking. Josie can accompany her father back to his home country and if she likes she can apply for a green card to the USA.

And MSLSD should present the story just as I described it above /pigs flying
