I am pretty sure they knew they weren't really welcome or maybe they were pushed ;) http://www.nbcnews.com/slideshow/philadelphia-gets-ready-democratic-national-convention-n615841
See Picture 5
Might I suggest this for the opening song/video

It is also a great prep for the DNC convention and also a great teaching aid, we can all learn from this.
For those who aren't so inclusive...

I wonder what Spence thinks after he said the RNC was a #&*!show. I wonder if they will have green balloons to show Latinos they have included them.

So the mean republicans are going to gather up all the immigrants and separate then from their children.

What a sheeit show. I have a lot of compassion for the kids but how do we square the circle on the parents that came illegally? IMO we should allow for more legal access but not allow illegal access.

If we as a nation are unwilling to follow established immigration law and allow people to come illegally, yet force the people coming here the proper way to wait in line, I can see how laws apply to only some people and not to others.

All laws should be applied evenly regardless of color, religion, class, or whether or not you are a fan of the Democratic party.

What legal reason is there that we should allow people to stay and be citizens when they explicitly broke the law?

The unequal application of law is one of the primary reasons I am no longer a Democrat.

I watched most of Day 1 looking for some glimmer of a reason I should vote for Hillary. Other than the humor of the Bernie or Bust folks, I saw nothing. Still not Trump and Not Hillary.

Though i may vote for Trump is it makes the Bernie Bros cry. Sheit, no I can't even do that.

It's a great point, one I bring up. If we look the other way on the illegals, how is that fair to people waiting in line to come legally, who are suffering in godawful sh*tholes, waiting for their chance?

I knew a married couple who lived here (legally) from Albania, they were here on some sort of student/work visa. The guy owned a masonry business, employed 6 Americans. His temporary visa ran out. He did everything right, hired lawyers, wanted to pay all kinds of $$ to stay. Well he got lost in the numbers, his time ran out, and he got shipped back to Albaina, those 6 guys lost their jobs. He kept trying, and 3 years later, he came back.

But for 3 long years, he and his wife struggled in one of the worst places on the planet. Meanwhile, liberals say we should just look the other way on the illegals. I assume that the more illegals are here, the fewer spots there are for people like my friends to come legally.

I want to know what any liberal would say to my friend who struggled desperately for 3 years in Albania. How is it fair to punish those who play by the rules, and reward those who break the rules? Don't we teach our kids (by age 6) that you will not be rewarded for cheating?

I don't get it. One of many, many reasons why contemporary liberalism just doesn't pass the common sense test. Not even close.

Nice guy always finish last.

Not remotely true. In this case, it's up to us. We can choose to enforce our duly constituted laws to help those who obey the laws (conservatives like this) or we can reward those who cut to the head of the line (as the Democrats support).

It's a disgusting ideology.

Thats the problem the GOP has got you guy thinking thats a true statement another example that facts dont matter.. and the Democrat's are the issue

Since coming to office in 2009, Obama's government has deported more than 2.5 million people—up 23% from the George W. Bush years. More shockingly, Obama is now on pace to deport more people than the sum of all 19 presidents who governed the United States from 1892-2000, according to government data.

comedy with my coffee...that was hilarious

why, while decrying soaring tuition and student indebtedness, would Hillary Clinton charge the underfunded University of California, Los Angeles, a reported $300,000 — rather than, say, $50,000 — for a 30-minute chat?

exactly....VDH....always hits the nail on the head

Comedy is a better start to any day over. the harsh reality that Facts provide :btu:

that's good...the guy drilling holes in the bow is telling you he's also bailing faster than ever at the stern :rotflmao:

Obama counts people turned back at the borders as deportations and if the same person is turned back repeatedly the same day each attempt is counted as another deported person.

Do those numbers take into consideration the millions that they allowed in to begin with?

(just for fun)
They let 5 million in illegally, kick back 2.5 million and claim they are doing a great job...but they let in 5 million to start with?

That's like a person selling a product claims he is a great salesman because his sales are through the roof! Only problem is that he is buying his own product!


Boils down to voting for the lesser of two evils, and we lose either way!
