Maybe I missed it. How many are in DC where they might have to go to school with Hussein’s kids?

So what did New Mexico do to get a break on the illegals? They kinda stick out like a sore thumb among southern border states.

I wonder what’s to stop say Texas from gathering up the Children and renting a tour bus, drive them to Sacramento and just leave them there.

The map maker has a sense of humor.

Mexico is pure white.

If we had a law-abiding administration Mexico would be a shade of green so dark it would be hard to distinguish from black.

Our supposed “conservative” governor Nathan Deal has not said a word. He is the worst Federal dollar Ho you can dream of. There is no Federal dollar he won’t lap up. I am sick of it. Maybe we should just let the Dem take the governor’s race in the Fall. What would be the difference? Common Core? nope Deal is for it.

Of course there is plenty of blame to go around. Our so called conservative rep from the 7th Dist has never said a word either. He is afraid of losing his plum committee assignment.

Those numbers add up to 27,000 give or take a few. Where are the remaining
30,000 or so that supposedly has been taken in during the past few months?

One of the many things that bothers me is since these kids risked their life getting here it’s foolish to think they will voluntarily attend immigration hearings knowing it’s possible they will be deported — and have to make the horrible trek again.

They may be poor, illiterate, and diseased. But they aren’t stupid, or they would never have made it across the Rio Grande in the first place.

They’re not “migrants”.

They’re not just passing through.

They are here in violation of our laws.

When I’m caught violating the law, I’m punished.

I guess it’s because I’m white and not from a block that will someday vote liberal Democrat.

from the article:

"During the first six months of this year, 4,280 children awaiting deportation proceedings were placed with families in Texas. Just one went to Montana. The uneven distribution of children can be traced to the uneven distribution of Central American families. Children who travel to the U.S. illegally alone from countries other than Mexico and Canada are placed with sponsors, usually their families, while awaiting deportation proceedings to unfold."

Looks like these are the ones that have been "placed" already (during Jan-Jun 2014), doesn't account for all those not yet placed. (But as with all gubmint-provided stats, big grain of salt should accompany.)

They are invaders, for whom Obama made ‘arrangements’ way back in January. The hidden facts regarding how many are MS13 gang members and other drug cartel workers is something Brennan at CIA will not allow the media to know or report.

And now Obama is making plans to let them apply for asylum in America from their own countries so they don’t have to make the dangerous trip north.

Apparently we’re also going to pay to transport them here.

“So what did New Mexico do?”

I think they just get routed to the motor vehicle division to get instant citizenship and pre-absentee vote a few times.

Arrangements were being made a lot further back than January. This story from 2013 says that Bethany "Christian" Services contracted with the office of refugee resettlement back in 2012.

Escape from Honduras

Last year (2012), the Office of Refugee Resettlement (Health & Human Services) in Washington, D.C., contracted with Bethany through our collaborative relationship with Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Services to open a transitional/residential facility to provide shelter for unaccompanied children over the age of 14. The facility, aptly named Bridgeway, provides shelter, educational and social/emotional assessment, elementary education, and ESL services to unaccompanied minors. Bethany is presently the largest unaccompanied refugee minor resettlement agency in the nation and the Office of Refugee Resettlement has announced that they are estimating a 44 percent increase in unaccompanied minors seeking help in 2013.

Each child is in care for an average of six weeks. Family reunification is Bridgeway’s primary goal, and our success rate has been more than 90 percent: since October 2012, 24 unaccompanied children have been cared for through Bridgeway, with only two unable to be reunited with their family. Both children are currently in foster care through our Unaccompanied Minor and Refugee Foster Care program.

If I stood here and encouraged a group to beat up people I didn't like, that would be a crime.

If I discussed how to rob a bank and the guys I was with went and did it, I'd be culpable.

If I was talking about a violent revolution and the gang I was with started shooting up government offices, I'd be held responsible.

BUT OUR MEDIA CAN SIT HERE AND CHAMPION AND CHEERLEADER FOR PEOPLE TO COME INTO OUR COUNTRY ILLEGALLY???????????

Isn't our media guilty of CONSPIRACY?????
