I heard on the radio why all the kids are being sent to the US all of a sudden...

The Coyotes are telling mothers that America will soon close their borders so if they want their kids to enter the US they have to go immediately.

So WHO is responsible for pushing the government to close the borders immediately therefore creating rumors that are causing this sudden mass exodus to the US?

You know who.

So it's not caused by Obama easing restrictions as the Republicans claim.
It's the REPUBLICANS who are responsible for this disaster -- once again.

Sigh.

When will they ever get out of the way and let our country start resolving problems instead of instigating new ones?

it's time to start calling them what they are. refugees fleeing a war zone. the plight of central and south america that we helped create with drug and trade policy is FINALLY spilling over our borders in ways that cannot be ignored. They are babies fleeing a freaking war zone. what else would make a mother send a 4 yr old through the desert? severed heads popping up in your neighborhood every week, people kidnapping kids for gangs, look up cuidad Juarez. these people need refugee status.

On one end, you have gun nuts who are hoarding guns and ammo because they fear the guvmint is coming after them.

And on the other, the fear that Republicans are going to close the border is behind the influx of young undocumented children rushing to get across the border.
