You must have missed it:

"He is a boy who has been suffering, because the U.S. government told his mother she couldn't stay in their country anymore because she was undocumented," Elvira Arellano said at a rally of about 40 people in Tijuana.

She still doesn't get it. If the boy is suffering, he's suffering because of the choices she made. This ain't America's fault. :no:

Multiple Choice:

If the US would 'cause suffering' to a little boy then the US is...

A ) Wonderful

B ) Horrible

...and you can go sift through all her quotes and infer what she thinks about the good ol USA....

What did she mean then? That the US is a great place? :blink:

Besides, it would give her an ounce of credibility if she cared to take responsibility for her own actions just once.

"If Homeland Security chooses to send agents to a holy place, I would know that God wants me to serve as an example of the hatred and hypocrisy of the current administration," Arellano said

Out of fear and hatred of an enemy you cannot find you have set out to destroy our lives and our families. As you knocked on my door, you are knocking on thousands of doors, ripping mothers and fathers away from their terrified children. You have a list of 17 million social security no match numbers and you are following that list as if we were terrorists and criminals instead of workers with families. You are denying us work and the seniority and benefits we have earned and you are taking the property we have saved for and bought.

Meanwhile, I had to lol at her hating Bush....

Why does her statement need any interpretation beyond what she said? I mean, do you REALLY think she would believe the US is such a bad and horrible place? Some of you completely threw out common sense on this one. If one thinks that our immigration policies are archaic - does that equate to believing the US is a bad and horrible place? What a bizarre sense of nationalism...quite fascist, really.

Doesn't sound like a happy place to leave your child without his mother......

This seems to be a prevailing logic - criticize the current Administration/Government and its policies and you're criticizing America herself. That's got fascism written all over it, no matter how you slice it.

...I would add that it is a selective logic - only when it is convenient in terms of a policy or an government that you agree with that anyone else should dare to criticize it, whereas if it is a policy you don't agree with, you criticism of that policy doesn't equate to you hating America. How convenient.

I wouldn't leave my kid in a country whose gov't I thought was 'hate filled'. End of.
