Pelosi: Dreamers’ parents ‘did a great thing’ in sneaking them into U.S.
The Washington Times ^ | Sept 20, 2017 | Stephan Dinan

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said Wednesday that illegal immigrant parents who brought their children to the U.S. in defiance of the law “did a great thing,” giving the country an infusion of successful young people.

Mrs. Pelosi’s comments strike a dissonant note from many analysts, who while saying the Dreamers are sympathetic since they had no say in the decision, say the parents do deserve blame for creating the problem.

He comments came after she was shouted down by protesters earlier this week who interrupted her at an event, and demanded she do more to protect all illegal immigrants. Mrs. Pelosi, at her weekly press conference in Washington on Wednesday, said she does want to protect a broader swath of illegal immigrants, but that’s not the debate at this point.

Good post. Every taxpayer in the country should study that map, they’re the ones paying the bill.

Here's the Oath she took. She's in clear violation of said Oath.

I’m sure some of the dreamers are an asset and some are not, but their parents did not do any great thing at all, they broke the law and used their kids as a sort of insurance policy that the law would not be enforced.

That’s not a great thing.

If my parents rob a bank is that a great thing Nancy ? We have laws here prohibiting their illegal entry ,,, they broke the law and I don’t feel they should be rewarded any better than a bank robber who breaks the law .

I agree. She's never been the brightest bulb in the fixture but her mental slippage has been noticeable since she became Speaker.

Breaking Laws that Americans support is a GREAT THING isn’t it Nance?

Which other laws are a “great thing” to break? Child Molestation laws perhaps?

How can we be so selfish to deprive Mexico and other countries of these wonderful, educated, ambitious young people?

Send them home so their home countries benefit from their stolen education.

Yeah, Nancy, they’re such great kids that they’re utterly useless had they been born in their countries of origin?

As far as the Constitution is concerned, dreamers are aliens. They were not born here nor were they legally naturalized.
