US vows ‘minimal’ effect of migrants, Housing of young immigrants not a burden, advocates say
Boston Globe ^ | July 28, 2014 | By Peter Schworm

In Massachusetts and across the country, residents have balked at the prospect of hundreds of immigrant children coming to their towns, angry that public money is being spent on illegal immigrants and worried that the influx would burden local schools and social services.

Yet the federal government insists the impact would be minimal, and many immigration lawyers and advocates describe the emergency shelters established in other states as worlds apart, secure, secluded facilities that quietly serve as way stations for thousands of young migrants.

The US Department of Health and Human Services, which operates the shelters, says it “pays for and provides” all services for the children, including food, clothing, and medical screening.

Advocates for immigrants have raised concerns about how the emergency shelters are being run and whether the children are receiving proper legal advice, given their numbers and relatively short stays. The children need a lawyer to help them navigate the immigration process and eventually represent them at a hearing on their status.

“The US Department of Health and Human Services, which operates the shelters, says it “pays for and provides” all services for the children, including food, clothing, and medical screening.”

All paid for by the US taxpayer.

But, this is all part of the meme propagated by the left that your money is not your own. It belongs to the government.

each child admitted to the US represents about a dozen relatives in the near future, and each of them another dozen, and on and on - get serious people!!

Of course. How could hundreds of millions of $$ that could otherwise be spent on citizens (or not spent at all) be a burden on the US taxpayer? That’s just crazy talk.

Its really simple.

Every time this Administration makes such a claim, simply assume the following

Exactly the opposite is true.

Whatever issue they are trying to minimize is very important to their plans

They want to provide media propaganda cover for their plan and keep Americans from catching on to their plan until it is too late to stop.

Advocates for the border immigrants say the "children" need lawyers to help them navigate the immigration process and to represent them at a hearing on their status.

Any lawyers assisting the uninvited "children" should be reported to the state bar association.....for eventual disbarment.

US justice system does not dispense justice to those who come before the courts with "unclean hands" (a legal term).....that is to say those who have broken US laws cannot apppeal to the US justice system for a remedy.

Well thats a relief. I thought the taxpayers might have to pick up the bill.

I'm beyond sick of this state sponsored *hit they try to pass off as news.

What about the Environmental Impact of the Millions of Illegal Aliens? The West is having a severe drought, we have endangered species everywhere, we have to build windmills for power, our cars can never get enough mpg, etc, etc. The 12 Million Illegals will have a bigger Environmental Impact than a Thousand Keystone Pipelines ever will and Obama has spent over 5 years doing an Environmental Impact Study on that project alone. Shouldn’t we be having Listening Tours all over the country before anymore are allowed to cross the border?

The invaders were coached to parrot phony political asylum claims by some of the same people deciding their hearings!
I know it’s smart to be patient just a little while longer, but this guy should have been impeached and removed from office years ago.

Cornyn: House to Pass ‘Skinnied Down’ Bill to Aid Border Crisis
Monday, July 28, 2014 07:14 AM

By: Melanie Batley

House Republicans intend to pass “skinnied down” emergency funding legislation this week before the August recess to address the border crisis, but it is expected to fall far short of the $3.7 billion requested by President Barack Obama, said Sen. John Cornyn.

The Texas Republican, along with Texas Democratic Rep. Henry Cuellar, intend to include changes to a 2008 law that prohibits the deportation of minors without a court hearing, something the GOP has argued would speed up deportation and stem the tide of new arrivals.

“Fortunately, it sounds like the House of Representatives is going to move a piece of legislation this week, which would actually offer a solution. And it will include something along the lines Henry and I have proposed,” Cornyn said on ABC’s “This Week,” according to the Christian Science Monitor.

Specifically, the bill would ensure that all new arrivals from Central America are treated the same way as minors who cross the border illegally from Mexico and Canada: instant deportation.

Massachusetts is bearing the brunt of the invasion---NRO reports gray-haired men are registering to attend high school, saying they're 17 years-old and have no documentation.

School policy is to check w/ families---who verified the gray-haired high school student was, in fact, a 35 year old adult.

More likely drug-cartel members planning drug businesses on campus---business plan is to give the kids free samples to get them hooked.......could also be practiced latino sex traffickers---looking to sell nubile young kids for predators and pedophiles.

==============================================

You can bet Obama'll get lotsa help from lock-stepping loyalist Democrat Gov Deval Patrick. Let's not forget Deval was the one who obstructed the public's right to know---Deval ordered Massachusetts govt agencies NOT to disseminate the welfare haul of the Boston bombers and the tax-sucking Tsarnaev family.

INMMIGRANTS CASH IN---FORCE TAXPAYERS TO FINANCE THEIR DIRTY DEEDS---Sources who saw 500 pages of welfare documents requested by a state legislator told News Center 5 that the entire Tsarnaev family, including (1) the two bombing suspects' parents, (2) the two suspects themselves, (3) their sisters, (4) the widow of the suspect killed, and, (5) their child -- received "every conceivable public benefit available out there." (Excerpt) Read more at wcvb.com ...

======================================================

The hot NY political buzz is prez wannabe Andy Cuomo is considering Massachsetts Gov Deval Patrick as his running mate. Gov Deval is busily trying to up his name recognition, hoping to score brownie points with Cuomo.

Here, vice-president hopeful Deval applauds at the installation
of the state's new police chief--- wearing her spiffy Commandant Herman
Goerring uniform circa 2012 (not photoshopped).

Gov Deval's personal bodyguard.

Thanks for the informative post.

================================================

Any Republican immigration bill MUST give taxpayers the ability to obtain wire-transfers, hard drives, electronic and paper, correspondence from Valeria Jarret's office to the DNC, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, etc.

NO tax dollars to Central America for emptying their decrepit villages to give Obama new Democrat voters.

MESSAGE TO REPS---NO TAX DOLLARS TO CENTRAL AMERICA--- US taxpayers handout billions in foreign aid to these do- nothing Third World hellholes--specifically earmarked to subsidize their poverty-stricken populations.

Time to cut off US aid to these corrupt, do-nothing governments. US aid should be suspended until the countries tell us where the aid money is going......and demand they put out appropriate messaging to counter the ads said to be fueling the horrendous surge at the border from Central America.

============================================

WHITE HOUSE SCAM-A-RAMA FIESTA News reports say Honduras Juan Orlando Hernandez and Guatemala President Otto Pérez Molina (and their first ladies) "say" they want their children back....... and they’re "willing to cooperate" with us to send their children back as quickly as possible........ that is to say.....will cooperate "for a price"......

Honduras is actually demanding the US finance a mini-Marshall plan. Extortion comes to mind....and kickbacks. They emptied out their villages with greedy visions of billions in remittances expected.

Now they want to cooperate? Call this a Third World scam by opportunists who smell money.....a scam Chicago criminals like Obama know very well.

===========================================

NOTE WELL: US Aid foreign figures here do not include military aid and "humanitarian" aid from other US agencies: El Salvador: $280.4M Honduras: $680M Dominican Republic: $223.7M Mexico: $958.2M Guatemala: $391.8M

SOURCE http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_foreign_aid_received

=============================================

This report shows US aid $’s for the past few years (see page 9 (US Assistance) and pages 25-30 show various other agencies providing aid (DOD, etc.) (needs more research)

If the HOR "conservatives" were really on our side, they'd defund HHS immediately and provide one way transportation for the hordes to be returned home.

They're probably waiting to use this as a campaign issue.

Ted Kennedy on the 1986 Simpson-Mazzoli Bill: “This amnesty will give citizenship to only 1.1 to 1.3 million illegal aliens. We will secure the borders henceforth. We will never again bring forward another amnesty bill like this.”

Ted Kennedy(2007) on the McCain/Kennedy immigration proposal: “The plan will strengthen our borders and our national security while providing a tough but fair path to citizenship for millions of people.”

Have our borders and national security been strengthened or secured from any of these bills/proposals? Have our cities not been flooded? Has American culture and society not been disrupted by such balkanizing, multi-culti phenomenon? And lastly, what happened to “We will never again bring forward another amnesty bill like this.”...?!?! Lies and damn lies...

Ted Kennedy pushed SEVEN amnesties into law. None was followed by a reduction in illegal immigration.

1. In 1986, Ted Kennedy’s blanket amnesty for 2.7 million illegal aliens promised a lot more enforcement but did not set any requirements for actual reductions in illegal immigration.

2. In 1994, Ted Kennedy’s Section 245(i) Amnesty gave legal residence and jobs to 578,000 illegal aliens. It was a temporary rolling amnesty primarily for extended family members of immigrants who instead of waiting in line, come on to the country illegally.

3. In 1997, Ted Kennedy’s extension of the Section 245(i) rolling amnesty was followed by an increasing flow of illegal immigration.

4. In 1997, Ted Kennedy also won an amnesty for close to one million illegal aliens from Central America. Illegal immigration sped up some more.

5. In 1998, Ted Kennedy won an amnesty for 125,000 illegal aliens from Haiti.

6. In 2000, Ted Kennedy got the so-called Late Amnesty, legalizing another 400,000 illegal aliens who claimed that they missed out on Kennedy’s 1986 amnesty.

7. In 2000, Ted Kennedy also won the LIFE Act Amnesty for an estimated 900,000 illegal aliens. It was another reinstatement of the rolling Section 245(i) amnesty...an estimated 900,000 illegal aliens. Illegal immigration accelerated.

See, it’s never-ending...no matter how much they say “never again.”

The never-ending Ted Kennedy lie

Yet, the expect DO us to be:

The Meals On Wheels
The Soup Kitchen
The Peace Corps
The Flop House
The Emergency Ward / Hospital
The Mayo Clinic
The Betty Ford Clinic

and so on and so on,

for 3rd / 2nd world trash to flood into,and be fed,clothed and cured of their diseases - no matter how much of a strain and drain it is on the paychecks of the middle and working classes( NEVER The Upper Classes, especially not the Upper Class LEFTISTS )

Traitors,all of them.
