Dreamer's threatens to leave the country

**oldno7** · 02-09-2018, 06:29 AM

A group of DREAMers, young illegal immigrants fighting to stay in the country following the Trump Administration's refusal to extend the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) executive order, say they'll leave the country if a deal isn't reached . . . err . . . to keep them in the country.

Speaking to CNN, one of these DREAMers, Alex Velez, said, "I will leave. I will leave America as soon as possible,” claiming that she would prefer to depart the country on her own terms than wait for the United States to collect and deport her.

The theory appears to be that, if DREAMers suddenly disappear, Americans will notice their absence. Velez and her sister claim they own businesses, pay tuition, and hold jobs, and that America has a duty to keep them here in order to maintain their contributions.

The problem is, for the Velez sisters, striking against the United States for refusing to accommodate them isn't a plan with a likely payoff. The pair are undocumented citizens brought over by their parents from Venezuela, and the situation in their home country is less than ideal.

If that's not irony, I don't know what is.

The top comment wins:

Democrats will now demand a wall to keep illegals from going home.

That made me laugh out loud....

Considering the context for the Democrats sitting during the state of the union.

Or, you could just watch the clip and see she didn't stand at all...

I could say you're a typical conservative who prefers fake news and to bury his head in the sand...but...that's kinda low hanging fruit.

Maybe she was just contemplating how "Stormy" her situation had become...

She decided she wasn't going to stay home and bake cookies, apparently...

Selective memory...and...when you think about it, was 20 years ago. Can you believe its been that long? Time flies when you're having fun...

At least the conservatives got to embrace a guy who's been married three times and has had affairs on every one of his wives. Talk about just plain weird.

Quite a legacy:

I don't doubt he and Bill get along just fine...we know the Clinton's attended his last wedding, and, he and Bill have had some laughs on the golf course.

Kinda hard to get ones head around...

Remember all the times that HRC brushed Bill's hand away? Yeah, me neither.

I'm guessing you neither watched the state of the union or the clip. And the topic when she didn't stand?

Pull your head out of...uhh...the sand...
