The White House on Monday insisted most of the thousands of unaccompanied minors flooding across the border will be deported. The firm position came as President Obama was set to travel to Texas, the center of a growing firestorm over the nation’s inability to prevent illegal immigrants from entering the country. Obama is set to hold fundraisers in Dallas and Austin during the two-day trip, but he has no plans to visit the border, where officials have struggled for months to contain a wave of minors seeking refuge in the United States. The president has come under criticism from members of both parties over the wave of immigrants, who have filled detention centers and overwhelmed a court system ill-prepared to handle the surge. Rep. Raúl Grijalva (D-Ariz.), the co-chairman of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, on Monday said “the borderlands deserve a presidential visit.” “I think a visit by the president is reaffirming that the borderlands along the Southwest border are vital and important to this nation,” Grijalva said during an interview with MSNBC. “So I think it would be important and very symbolic.”

They will be deported?

Believe it when I see it.

I have a lot of compassion for these kids, btw. They have been used as pawns by all the people who have greedily profited at their expense.

Shame on the parents, too. How could they do this to their children?

I know this describes the vast majority of politicians, but BHO has taken it to a whole other level.

No doubt in my mind he's lying about this issue too.

As Obama’s trip approached, the White House insisted Monday it was “not worried” about the optics of the president raising cash with Texan donors without going to see the developing crisis firsthand, even as Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) pressured Obama to go to the border. “The president is very aware of the situation that exists on the southwest border,” White House press secretary Josh Earnest said Monday. Obama has the difficult task of arguing that he does not “have to be there in order to see the problem and deal with it effectively,” said Southern Methodist University political scientist Cal Jillson. “They have to work the optics as best they can because going to the border with Gov. Perry would provide him an opportunity to grandstand, which he would almost certainly do,” Jillson said.

One way we can inside this never happens again is to fund a secure border by using the illegal immigrants as the labor force and award them with amnesty when the project is complete. During construction, we would use the national guard of the border states and kill anyone coming across unlawfully.

If these kids are deported, they will be back within a month if we do not have a secure border and we will be back here in six weeks saying the same thing all over again. I don't want to hear shite from an empty suit until it includes a secure border.

Republicans won't like this very much. Just give them a few days to figure out why.

Good luck with that

Shooting illegals would spark the largest, most violent protests in American history. It would make the Rodney King riots look like a schoolyard slap fight.

Dude I accidentally up voted you. We don't kill people for crossing a border. Please say you were joking.
