HOW COULD THE IMMIGRATION CRISIS IN TEXAS HAVE HAPPENED?





There are so many issues this Sunday (July 13th) but I will start with the current immigration issue that has monopolized the airwaves for the last two weeks and has created a political firestorm.

The issue concerns the thousands of children from Central America (Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala, Costa Rica & Panama) crossing our borders, many without any parents, and overwhelming our immigration system which appears to be at a loss as to what to do with these thousands of kids.

Immigration has been a hot button issue for years and is treated as a political hot potato. Obama wants to address the issue as did Bush before him, but the Republicans said it is a dead issue until after the November elections.

We all seem to agree that we absolutely need “secure” borders but where has that gone…nowhere. I have been to McAllen, Texas on many occasions and to the town across the river in Mexico called Reynosa and I will tell you that the river is basically a stream that anyone can cross including five-year-old kids; which they have been doing in the thousands.

Apart from the big issue of immigration, the immediate issue that needs immediate attention is that of the children from Central America which are streaming across our border because they have heard that once they get here they are in for good and statistics seem to prove that as fact.

Now we must admit that conditions in Central America have to be so horrendous that parents will send their kids towards the American border without them; paying individuals whose business is to transport children into the U.S.

First, I cannot believe that this has been going on for some years and this is the first we are hearing about it; how god-damn incompetent is our government.

Obama is asking for $$$ BILLIONS to send those kids back…really… so they can turn around and come on back?

I have already seen protesters blocking buses transporting those children to places they can be housed (like Lackland AFB where I did basic training in the 60s). These protesters are saying these children are bringing leprosy with them and will infect us all if allowed to stay here…I can see a scary movie out of this.

Bleeding hearts are saying we cannot send them back into the hell holes they came from; it’s inhumane.

This would NEVER even be an issue if our politicians had the balls to SECURE OUR BORDERS FIRST and then decide what to do with the illegals already in our country.

I am disappointed in Obama because I good CEO should always be aware what the fuck is going on in his country and not be surprised on so many occasions. Rick Perry the governor of Texas where the children crossed into is criticizing Obama for not being on top of the issue but it is Perry’s state and why in the fuck did he not know what was going on right under his stupid nose.

No, all the politicians are to blame for this fiasco because we have a dysfunctional political system which only WE can fix with our VOTE.

I am thinking we should throw the bums out…
