Proud Tiger 4,261 Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Trump haters are pounding him on his DACA decision, which seems very humane and logical to me. But why does Hillary get a pass? Dumb question on my part. I know thw answer. .http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/09/08/flashback-clip-shows-clinton-saying-illegal-immigrant-children-should-be-sent-back.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homersapien 11,425 Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 You're right. That was a dumb question on your part. (Hint: Hillary ain't president and never will be.) Let's worry about the now and the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was talking about kids who are old enough to cross the border on their own and were sent to the border to do so. DACA covers kids who were brought here by their parents, most of whom were too young to make such a decision on their own. But I don't really care. Hillary isn't president. I didn't vote for her and so I don't really care what she has to say about anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No he wasnt, unless you mean by the cuban govt. According to Castro's daughter, on Nightline, The cuban govt demanded return of their property, Elian, and that was the reason he was returned. His father and his $2000 Armani suit was just window dressing. Elian worked on a farm as a laborer at age 5. He was not in the custody of his mother or father.

No matter how you spin it, his father wanted him back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKW 86 7,438 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Let me get this straight: You think it is American thing to do send refugees back with total disregard for the realities of what lies back home? So you, of course, want all Syrian refugees deported just like Elian? You are a cold heartless man.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKW 86 7,438 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Circa 2006: NEW YORK (Reuters) — Cuban President Fidel Castro was furious when Forbes magazine estimated his fortune at $550 million last year. This year, the magazine upped its estimate of the communist leader's wealth to a cool $900 million. Tell me again how evil the slave owners were back 150 years in the US because they benefited from the free wages of the slaves....Please! Enlighten us on the difference...
