JOHN CORNYN: AMERICA NEEDS TO CARE FOR 'DUMPED' CHILDREN
Breitbart ^ | 10 Jun 2014 | CHARLIE SPIERING

Posted on 06/11/2014 4:40:46 AM PDT by Nickname

Sen. John Cornyn criticized President Obama for creating a “human magnet” with his unlawful approach to immigration enforcement, but admitted that Americans had a duty to care for the children that were flooding into the country.

“They need to be taken care of, I mean they’ve been left, basically dumped at America’s doorstep, and we need to treat them compassionately we need to make sure they get the care they need,” Cornyn explained to reporters on Capitol Hill on Tuesday afternoon.

As usual, no leadership from Cornyn. Just more standing around with his hands in his pockets, complaining about Obama and wondering what he's going to do.

Sure - let's care for them.
Let's give them a P&J sammich and a carton of milk as they load into the bus to take them to the border.

Hey John. Ever thought of asking Mexico’s Nieto why they are dumping their children?

This American cares about how they got here. They sure as hell didn’t walk a thousand miles.

There is a solution.

The EXEMPT in Congress shall give up their homes
and finances for this quagmire THEY created.

The EXEMPT shall take in a quarter in their homes
these “children” they have INVITED, themselves.

With this statement of his, I am hoping for a “Cantor take 2” on runoff day!

JOHN CORNYN: AMERICA NEEDS TO CARE FOR ‘DUMPED’ CHILDREN,


WTF?

In the marginally sane world I inhabit, when you find a twelve year old child who has gone missing from his parents, you return that child to his parents.

What is so hard about that?

Only in Washington it seems that the solution is to build a ware house to keep the kids until such time as you can relocate the parents from Guatemala to the USA, buy them a house and get them started on welfare payments.

This is why they’ll never be deported. Nobody holding public office is willing to have a “that racist deported CHILDREN” narrative hung around their neck.

They’re not “dumped”. They’re sappers - moles and infiltrators. Half to push our resources to the limit, and the other half as new recruits for MS-13 and/or Reconquista.

These children have not just been “dumped”. Pretty soon we will be hearing sobs from the left to bring the parents in to reunite with their children and give them every benefit that is denied to US citizens and vets.

Sadly, Cornyn survived his primary election. Texans did oust a few RINOs locally tho, so hopefully there will be more solid conservatives up and coming to challenge him in the future.

Put them on school busses and ship them back.

My mother was not allowed to immigrate with her parents when a US immigration official thought she was “sick”. She had been crying about leaving her home. She had to go back and live with her grandparents while her parents went ahead to the US. She had to wait 8 years before she could see her parents again.

My dad’s family had to wait 15 years for the quota after their dad applied for immigration from Mussolini’s Italy. In the meantime, his father died, his sister died, and his mother died waiting for immigration approval.

My mom an ddad worked hard all their lives and put us through college without ANY government assistance.

Cry me a river.

Take care of their immediate needs and then send them to the embassy in whatever country they came from.

This is a question that needs to be asked: Just how did so many children end up crossing the border unaccompanied?

Did they find their way there themselves? that's unlikely, isn't it?

If they had help, where did it come from? And why?

And, of course, did the Obama administration somehow orchestrate the affair???

Actually, we need to send the children back home and dump John Cornyn in his next primary 6 years from now.

Enjoy you last term, Johnny. Try not to embarrass yourself and just shut up and vote as Cruz tells you.

I thought Cornyn actually won his primary.

I’ve been wondering why we don’t have the various embassies handling their own citizens.

What I believe needs to be emphasized here is that our border security is SO lax that helpless,unaccompanied CHILDREN are breaching it.

Just my 2¢
