I have a suggestion. Put the refugees on a flight to NY where the UN headquarters is located and have the UN deal with the situation. Repeat as refugees show up. The US will not be able to refuse them and the UN will have to actually create a refugee center.

No, we are not taking them.

Obama is sending back all 52,000 refugees arrived since October last year, and 9000/month arriving will follow the same route to go back. We have more than 20,000,000 illegal aliens living in US at this moment.

I don't think so. Every illegal alien is a guaranteed Democratic vote. Those illegals are going anywhere. Check out the photo op at the White House with the children if you need further proof. Don't get me wrong; I am 100% against illegal immigration and favor immediate deportation but the powers-that-be are another story.

Democratic vote? If you meant a "due process" in the US Constitution, yes, we are doing the Democratic vote.

President Obama is requesting almost $4 billion in emergency funding from Congress to confront an immigration crisis from a wave of unaccompanied children surging across the southern border of the United States, White House officials said today 7/8/2014. Obama will be in Texas to talk with the governor to evaluate the situation. We are determined that we will not going through the path of Australia on this issue.

No, I'm sorry. I wasn't clear on that. I meant that the majority of illegals will vote democratic when the receive voting rights. The showing up at Texas and funds requested from Congress are really a dog-and-pony show; the democrats wants the future votes and the business leaders want the cheap labor. Nothing will really change and you and I will be expected to adapt unfortunately. I hope I am wrong and I agree with you 100% we should not go the route of Australia.

I think I've got you. Agree with you on your comment listed below/

In my humble opinion, the Congress needs to repeal the Human Trafficking Law of 2008.

If ain't no legal paper, no stay.

If we allow them to stay illegally, then what would you do to other 20,000,000 illegal aliens? Do we need to provide all benefits including public education, health care, welfare. I believe they have to come here legally and they need to EARN them.
