    Actual quote:

    "I couldn't be prouder of the work that we've done through executive actions to make sure that our young DREAMers -- young people who were brought here as children and are Americans just like our kids, except they don’t have the right documents -- the notion that we would be keeping them in the shadows made no sense."

    He's specifically talking about children who have grown up in America and through no fault of their own aren't citizens. He's not talking about all illegals as you would have us believe.

    I'm actually divided on the issue. I very much opposed to any form of amnesty and I believe we should lock down our borders. I'm divided on what to do with kids that were brought to this country and have grown up here. Most of them would be indistinguishable from other American kids, except for their skin color.

    I don't look to mislead "have you believe".....that's Obama's record. Try no nasty comments for a week and see what happens.

    Check your post man...both the title and the first sentence begin with "Obama: Illegals ‘Are Americans Just Like Our Kids, Except". Without a qualifier before "Illegals", of course you would have us believe that he means all illegals.

    I dare you to keep on topic and respond to the points I made instead of trying to make this personal. You and RevMitchell think you are exempt from any responsibility when you "post an article" and that's simply not true. First of all, we don't need the two of you to be our personal news feed. If you have an article you want to share, great, but add something to it. If I want a news feed I'll hit drudge. Second, when you post an article (without any commentary) it shows that you agree with what it has to say.

    This from the guy that says "I DARE YOU to be kind here with those you disagree with."

    What a hypocrite.

    Are you ready to respond to the points I made about the article you posted yet? Or do you just want to continue taking this thread out to left field?

    Seems I'm also a little to quick for your edits. Funny how I've been able to quote your words each time and then you go back and change them to try and soften them up.

    Ah, the all knowing Jedi power has revealed my heart to you, right?

    Are you ready to talk about the topic of this thread yet or do you want to continue to make it personal?

    That's a good plan. When you can't debate someone logically, just ignore them.
