If you look closely you can see a tiny piece of puppy between his teeth.
Due to the nature of the current Republican Party. The mainstream Republicans have been positively paralyzed by the batshit Teabag wing to the point where they don't dare propose any solutions to any problems, lest they be accused of trying to make government work. Since they have been effectively "self-expelled" from the policy arena, the only thing they can do to get people to vote for them is to gin up hatred of "others". Immigrants make a handy target for them, so they beat the drums about how the Hispanic Horde is going to come north and take jobs away from us and vote for those socialist Democrats. Since their tent is shrinking, Republicans have no choice to drum up hysteria among that shrinking base in order to get them motivated to vote.
Even without the Executive Order, the current incoming kids have been sheltered from deportation by a bi-partisan bill signed in 2001, the DREAM Act. INS and its related courts are currently so overwhelmed by the sheer numbers that it is taking up to two years merely to get a kid into court to be deported.
I would not say that DACA has had no effect, but it is not the primary cause of the current crisis regarding young people. Obama's E.O. addressed kids who had already been in the country for many years, being brought in as infants or very young children, and who have been effectively assimilated. The huge numbers of current kids are not actually affected by the E.O., but are waiting due process thanks to the bi-partisan, Bush-signed, law from over a decade ago

More Ignorance.
- Way to get your head to explode on conjecture -why don't you wait to see what is done before foaming at the mouth.

- Believing that another American who has broken no laws, yet has different beliefs than you, should be tried and shot is the most un-American thing I can think of.
- I wish we'd attack this issue at the source. Have vigorous enforcement and severe penalties for businesses and persons who employ illegal immigrants. If you cut off the source of revenue, the vast majority will simply not come to the US.
I think it's pretty clear what industries and businesses employ a ton of these folks. 100K fine per person per occurrence sounds about right to me. If local law enforcement even did the once in a while sweep of Home Depots to arrest and fine people who pick-up/hire the immigrants waiting in front, I'm pretty sure this practice will disappear immediately.
Why?

In general, 46 percent of juveniles don’t show up for their immigration court hearings, according to Capitol Hill testimony recently from Juan Osuna, who directs the Justice Department’s immigration courts.
Reasonable and intelligent people are dissuaded from posting in the P&N due to the prevalent culture of 'batshit' crazy and extremism. If they do post their points are mostly ignored or dishonestly twisted around into the snippet of a talking point of the day.Well written for a lurker :thumbsup:

Rational and sane conversations are not possible when faced with excessive screaming of lies, misrepresentations and gutter speech.
This forum isn't representative of society as the unhinged and unchecked loons rule the roost.
compared to your irrational behavior......everybody on these forums is a sane down to earth rationable person......Please show me a rational liberal on these boards?
Oh wait, the liberals here do represent nearly all of the left wingnuts out there. Don't bother going after the issue, just attack the messenger.
Disagree with Obama, you must be a racist.Disagree with a liberal you must be an idiot.
Are you saying the Hispanics typically vote republican?
so your including all the illegal immigrants into the hispanic republican voting percent? why would these people vote for the same party that would be the ones deporting them instead of allowing them to stay here
Are you saying the Hispanics typically vote republican?
I say go for it. Then wait for McOwned to start a thread crying that he's been replaced by someone that was given amnesty.
Are you saying that the Republican Party is incapable of appealing to Hispanics?
I don't see Canada opening their doors/borders and welcoming them in with open arms.
:hmm:
nah I've nothing it's just to hard to try responding it's so ridiculous.....

I notice that you didn't answer the question.
