Even if we began deportation hearings today, which we are not going to do, and secured the border right now, which we are not going to do, there is no way, by law and by simple logistics, that all of these illegals will be out of here by tomorrow.
We should do those things, but they still leave us with a lot of people in our care for some period of time, some of whom are children.
Gov. Palin is right that we don’t want the government caring for them — but someone has to, and if we don’t want our tax dollars going for this, that means churches and private charities have to do the job for whatever time these children are here. And they can do it more efficiently, too.
So if you don’t want them on the public rolls, then you ought to support Beck and others in their private activities to take care of the kids while they’re here — while working to support all measures to get them home ASAP and stem the flow of new people into our country illegally.
And we're doing that by turning charitable actions into publicity stunts?
I'm not buying it. This is not an "either or" kind of situation. We are just throwing the door open and Beck, along with Cruz, are aiding to that perception. Funny how many "conservatives" will further undermine the republic with some token teddy bears and soccer balls in the name of compassion.
