34. Something keeps nagging at the back of my mind about this latest influx of youngsters.

Have they ever figured out who spread the word that it's OK for the children to come to America? Tell them they'd be welcomed with open arms and taken care of?

I can't believe it is the coyotes or whatever they call the thieves that bus them to the border. The last groups have been flooding in with the same message. Biden went down to clear up the lies that are being told, but nothing has changed.

It just seems to be too convenient what with the election(s) coming up, adding to Obama's humiliation and the GOP trying to repair its image.

Did someone or a group of people...say, Koch-supported groups...drop a few hints or place ads to spread the word? Shoot, I wouldn't put it past Cheney.

I must be getting suspicious in my old age. I wonder why?
